My MIL Gave Me a Necklace Made of Tiny Baby Bottles and Pacifiers Knowing I Couldn't Have Children – What My FIL Did Next Silenced the Room

"What?"

Susan said sharply, "Matthew, don't."

He turned to her.

"You saw this before tonight?"

"No."

Then he looked back at Thomas.

"She showed me the necklace on Tuesday."

My stomach dropped.

Thomas stared at him.

"She showed it to me loose. She was laughing when she did."

"You saw this before tonight?"

"Yes."

Matthew's voice was quiet.

"She showed it to me loose. She was laughing when she did."

Susan stood up.

"I told her it was cruel. I told her not to give it to Claire."

"Oh, please."

Matthew ignored her.

"I told her it was cruel. I told her not to give it to Claire."

Thomas looked from his father to his mother.

"And?"

She looked angry now.

Matthew swallowed.

"She agreed."

Nobody spoke.

I looked at Susan.

She looked angry now.

Angry that Matthew was telling us.

Not embarrassed.

Angry that Matthew was telling us.

He continued.
