Emily POV
"Indeed yes, it was an excellent idea Nathan" Chris speaks, cutting off what Harry had started from his minuscule speech, disconcerting him: "I thank you too, both of you. And well, it's a pleasure to finally meet the family of Nathan's lovely girl."
I didn't know if he meant adorable, but at least I thanked him for shutting up his stubborn son.
"The pleasure is ours" says my father honestly: "Considering that Emily and Lana are alone in this big city, it's kind of a relief that she now has a family to lean on."
"And what a family" Darla mutters wryly too loudly, loud enough for all of us to hear: "I mean, it's amazing that it's you guys. It's the Vandenns, isn't it, I would never in a million years have imagined sharing a table with you. It's crazy as hell."
"Darla."
"Don't worry Emily, what your sister says is adorable" says Elizabeth coming to her defense: "In fact, I should thank you for having such a favorable conception of us. It is an honor."
