His Girl Best Friend Mocked My Calm Act—Unhinged Family Shut Her Novel SynopsisMy dad had been a hellraiser since he was a kid. He used to scream that his fate was his own, and then he
fought his way up to become an underground mafia family boss.
My mom had a terminal case of Main Character Syndrome. Her motto was simple: anything a woman
wants, she gets. And she piled up a fortune to prove it.
So go figure.
Two crazy people balanced each other out and ended up with me, the most low-maintenance person youʼll
ever meet.
Everything was fine until my fianceʼs girl best friend came back from abroad.
“Look, Iʼm not going to lie to you. I was his first. But weʼre just friends now. Honestly, if I hadnʼt le the
country to focus on my career…”
“Forget it. I shouldnʼt even go there. Iʼm not like you. Iʼm not the type who makes marriage her whole life
goal.”
My fiance shot me an apologetic look. “Skyler didnʼt mean anything by it. She just doesnʼt get why Iʼd want
to settle down this young.”
I calmly slid my diamond ring o my finger and set it on the table. “Alright then. Letʼs not get married.”
My fiance and his girl best friend both froze.
They clearly hadnʼt expected me to be so chill about it.
Then I changed the subject.
“So. How are you planning to explain this to my parents?”
See, I can a ord to be chill. Because my parents are absolutely unhinged.
In a family like mine, staying low-key is the only way to keep things smooth.

The day Skyler Quinn came back to town, Cole Mitchellʼs group chat exploded.
[Everyone meet at the usual spot tonight. I hear my bro is engaged. Time for us to vet the future Mrs.
Mitchell.]
By the time I walked into the private room, it was already packed.
Skyler had slipped her hand under Coleʼs shirt. “Damn, two years and you finally grew some abs. Let me
count how many.”
Cole laughed and tried to dodge her. “Cut it out. You know Iʼm ticklish there.”
Skyler didnʼt stop. “Iʼm just loosening you up. Donʼt act like Iʼm doing something wrong.”
Some guy at the table looked up and saw me walk in. “Everyone shut up! The fiancee is here!”
Skyler turned and looked me up and down. But her hand was still inside Coleʼs shirt.
Cole quickly pulled her hand away and stood up to guide me to a seat.
The second I sat down next to him, Skyler elbowed him in the ribs.
“Nice work, kid. Sheʼs gorgeous. You didnʼt even give us a heads up.”
Cole smiled proudly. “I wanted you to see her in person when you got back. So. Does she pass the test?”
