Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 843

Mrs. White felt the Thompsons weren't showing them respect, but respect was a two-way street.

When Noah and Karina married, the Thompsons had provided a marital gift of twenty million. The Whites not only failed to provide a dowry but also kept the twenty million for themselves, claiming they were 'saving it for Karina' to prevent her from spending it recklessly.

Now, for Noah's marriage to Cynthia, the Thompsons had offered the same twenty million. The Scotts not only accepted none of it but also provided Cynthia with a dowry of an equal amount.

Noah registered the villa they had purchased as their marital home under Cynthia’s name, and the Scotts, in turn, gifted Cynthia a luxury car worth tens of millions.

While the Scotts were known for being social climbers, they genuinely doted on their daughter. In marrying her off, they had practically emptied their own coffers.

A woman’s influence within her new family often boiled down to the assets she brought to the table and the power of her maiden name.

Karina had had an easy life for years, lucky to have a kind and reasonable mother-in-law like Dana. But she hadn't appreciated it and had let things escalate to a divorce. Sooner or later, she would come to regret it.

"Mom, if we ruin the Thompsons' wedding, they'll never forgive us. We should just go back," Karina said timidly.

Seeing Noah marry someone else while she was still reeling from their divorce was painful.

But she knew her family's standing. Challenging the Thompsons, the most powerful of Istra's four great families, was a fool's errand.

"Are you an idiot? We aren't confronting the Thompsons. That's what Nicola is for. If Noah's own daughter causes a scene at his wedding, no one can blame us."
