The Pinnacle Of Life

Alex’s eyebrows were furrowed as well. He turned to Dorothy. “I don’t think Amanda would be happy

marrying into such a family.”

Dorothy sighed. “It’s okay, let’s just endure this! Isn’t society itself cynical? Amanda’s family needs all

list and there are tens of them! All the tables are full and I don’t think there is any more space left in the

Her mother-in-law pondered and said, “Amanda’s schoolmates are sitting at one of the tables. We can

just make them give up their table for our relatives.”

Amanda protested. “Mom, how could you? Those are my friends who came all this way just to attend

my wedding!”
