Instead, I found myself collapsed on the cold, dark slate floor of our modern kitchen, clutching the shredded remains of my custom lace gown. Tears blurred my vision as I looked up at Helen, the elegant, silver-haired matriarch of the family I was about to marry into. She stood over me like a cold statue in her forest green dress, her expression entirely devoid of warmth.0/p00blockquote0"You don't belong in this family," Helen said, her voice dripping with ice.0/blockquote00p0I wept openly, my fingers tracing the jagged tears in the delicate fabric my late grandmother had lovingly selected for me. 0strong0"Please don't do this,"0/strong0 I sobbed, my voice trembling. 0strong0"You ripped my dress.
