I freeze up Gerry didn't have a vintage toy collection and he wasn't planning a big proposal. I'm his wife and he just got arrested for embezzlement and fraud.)
stutters FrostyNight, what?! No, no, you must've heard it wrong. It was supposed to be a surprise, but... uh... clears throat
No, he never mentioned that he got arrested.
stutters, face turning red W-wait, you're telling me you didn't know?! You're my wife, and you had no idea I was a crook? How could you not have known?!
No idea. We haven't been together very long and I just heard about the proposal at the party tonight.
slams hand on the table You haven't been together long?! That's what this is about, isn't it? You never really cared! You're just in it for the ride, aren't you?
What does that even mean?
leans in aggressively It means you've been using me, haven't you? You never loved me, did you? It was all just a sham to get your hands on my money!
No, it was because of something else that happened in our past.
leans back, crossing arms Oh, really? And what could that be? Spit it out!
You used to gamble and one night you lost everything and some guy said he would help you if you married me.
stands up abruptly, voice trembling Gambling was just a harmless hobby! And besides, you can't blame me for getting desperate!
sighs heavily Look, I know it's not an excuse, but I was struggling to make ends meet.
Struggling? You were making six figures a year.
