It was the day of Emily's husband's funeral. The whole Ford family figured that after six years by Jonathan's side, I was finally about to be tossed aside. After all, Emily was his first love. And me? I was just the stand-in he kept around to shut his family up about marriage after she left and got married overseas. For six years, I took care of his blind father, kept his company from going under, and even gave him a daughter. But he never let me be officially recognized as part of the Ford family. But the day after the funeral, Jonathan suddenly had his secretary call me. Jonathan told me, "We're getting married on the eighth of next month."
