"Jane this should of been a private discussion but since it wasn't I hope you two can resolve this. If not,  you won't be married to a great guy."   " I guess we should of had this discussion about not working/working before I said yes to his proposal."  Maur just hugs me.  We can see that Jay is talking to his father on the deck.  We continue to walk more.
"Son- working or not working discussion should of taken place before you asked her hand in marriage.  Neither of you are wrong."  "Dad I don't want to lose her." "You need to tell her that and eat your ego. You never know she may change her mind as long as you don't harp on it. If you give in, is she worth it? Only you can decide."  I see my husband and son coming down the stairs.

"Jane if you love him. You need to compromise. You need to communicate this and make sure he hears you. I will support you either way. I may not agree, but I will always support you." Jane and I walk back to my home.  I hug her and leave her out on the patio. " Jay good luck "  "Thanks Maur." I go back inside. Angela I said everything that needed to be said.  I am going to go in town and meet with my contact on The Truth  magazine."  Maur was waiting for me outside. "Tommy drive me in town. Sharing Jane's SUV isn't getting it for me.  I will give you the directions to the Dealership I want to go to."   "Sis you going to buy another mercedes?"  "No Range Rover. You can hang out or go back?"  "It depends.  Is it safe to go inside?" Maur laughs. "🤣🤣Yes, its safe. " "Thanks I am going to go back. I would like to stay but I need to be there to help both like I promised to Frankie. See you later sis. " I drop her off and we say good bye. I go inside the dealership.
" Hello Dr. Isles you looking for yourself or your fiance?"  "I am looking but another sales person who is interested in making a cash sale not involved in gossip magazines." I  walk and see a lady sales woman who wasn't busy.  " I would like this Range Rover with full warranty all five years. satellite stereo,  star, and full tank of gas."  " Mam  may I ask your name sp I don't have to refer to you as mam."  "MY Name is Dr.  Maura Isles."  "Dr. Isles let me go get those keys and a sales contract abd we will get you out shortly.  I will have service department gas it up and wash it before you leave.  By the way, my name is Stacy Adams. Here is some cool water while you wait. "  "THANK YOU." I knew the lady knew I was, but she was professional and pretended she didn't.  " Dr. Isles I just need your check or cash and your signature here. I contacted your insurance company already on your behalf and sent them the vehicle specifications.  This man would like you to call him back to make sure I wasn't impersonating someone."  "Stacy thank your for being professional. Enjoy your commission.  Too bad others don't learn not to be intrusive or know it all."  " Yes, it will be. I am saving for my first home and with this commission I am able to have a very nice payment down and thank you. I  included tire rotation and oil changes to for five years. The manager wasn't too pleased with that but was silence when I told him you were paying the entire price. He included wax job too. We very rarely get customers that pay on one day. Yes, Harold doesn't know what you stated."  I telephone the insurance company.  I authenticated who I was with my security question and my medical license as secondary proof.  I shook Stacy hands and was off to meet with my contact for the truth. I  connected my cell to the stereo and called Antonio. "Antonio alot of media sites and lies have been posted.  I am on my way from the dealership to speak with my contact at The Truth Magazine. I am hoping you will allow him to call you to answer his questions.  He's not shady like these others. I will give Joseph Priat my statements while he speaks to you. I am hoping this will  decrease these rags being put out on all of us."  " I will keep my cell on sound.  Did you say you coming from a dealership? Did something else happen? Is Jane's BMW okay?"  " Yes I purchased a range rover.  Without my vehicle here and I don't want to keep borrowing Jay's hummer if Jane's BMW not available.  I chose to get a blue one similar to your and Jane's color. Joseph will call you in a few.  I am here already.  love you."  " I love you too."
" JOSEPH IS EXPECTING ME."   "Yes,  Dr.  Isles we were expecting you.  Congratulations on your engagement. He's a hottie."  " Yes he is."
" Maura its good to see you again- let's squish these rumors so you can enjoy planning your wedding."
" Antonio Dawson this is Joseph Priat. I am here with Maura to hopefully squish these lies so you two can enjoy your wedding planning."  This conversation took twenty minutes for Joseph to do. Antonio is  grateful to be able to have his statement be printed for all to see. We promised to send Joseph our wedding photos to publish.
I return home. Everyone  comes out to greet me.  "Maur when Tommy told you what you did without me.  My feelings were sorta hurt. We usually do car buying together but understand.  We are even now.  NO more though" and I laugh. Jane and I went for a drive so we could talk more. Tommy was cooking lunch with Jay.

"Maur we compromised. When and if I have children., the second one. I will take a leave of absence to see if I like not working. He didn't want to lose me either.  Heated seats, back up camera,  blind site coverage and warnings,  satellite,  star...very nice. I know you paid cash or basically wrote a check. Full tank and full warranty.  Did you get the oil change and tire rotation too ?" " No I forgot that but the sales lady didn't.Her manager wasn't thrilled about the oil and tire rotation for five years until she told him I was paying the full amount before I left the dealership.  I lucked out on that. I also went to see my contact at the TRUTH magazine m Antonio and my statements will appear in May's issue. We wi also send him photos of our wedding to print. since we know rhe media will.lie. I am going to pull over. You are driving us back. I need to see how you are doing and this is a good way to find out.  If you hurt, pull over."
