Elyse fluttered her eyelashes, mentioning, "Driscoll toldthe chef has made loving steak for us." "Ew! You manage to make that sound rather unattractive." Theo was in his living room, persistently trying to call Elyse, thinking she would have calmed down after a few days.
Despite dialing her number over and over, each attempt was cut short.
When he tried one last time, he realized he had been blocked. Looking at her non his phone, he was shocked that the woman who had once loved him so deeply could block him, Had Lanny persuaded her to marry him or not?

I agreed to marry my daughter off to you, and you abandoned her at the wedding, subjecting her to humiliation and ridicule. I'm the one who should be seeking retribution!" Lanny retorted.
Fuming, Theo thought Lanny was really an ungrateful wretch. Angered, he shot back, "If you're reneging on the marriage, you ought to return the resources we provided!" "That's fine. They weren't of much value anyway," Lanny responded sharply.e
