“I believe you’re in the wrong seat,” the bride’s mother said icily, her eyes flicking over my dress. “Family doesn’t sit with the staff.” I froze. All around me were servers in uniform, trays balanced in their hands. I lowered my voice and said, “I am family.” She smiled thinly. “Not the kind that belongs here.” What she didn’t realize was that my husband owned the entire venue—and he was about to walk through the door.
