Angrily Ever After

- So, today, I give you a sneak peak

where my nuptials will take place .

Oh my goodness.

For those who've been following my wedding story,

you know I met my man, Malcolm Wright, last year

and he wooed me with wine, trips and this rock!

I'm so lucky.

I always wanted a guy like Malcolm.

I wish my Dad would have been here to meet him.

I know he would loved Malcolm

because Malcolm is a good provider

and that was important to my Dad.

As a matter of fact,

my Dad used to work security here

and he always talked about how beautiful the weddings were.

I hate my Daddy can't walk me down the aisle,

but I know he'll be watching me from Heaven.

OK, are you guys ready to do this?

Let's do this.

Isn't it beautiful in here?!

#8daysleft, #MrandMrs, #LoveMeSomeHim, #HappilyEverAfter.

Ms. Logan, welcome back!

We're getting close to the date.

- Yes, I know, eight days to be exact.

Have all 200 guests confirmed?

Absolutely.

Malcolm's family owns the most prestigious

black law firm in DC.

I have people that I don't even know

DMing me to attend!

I bet!

My final payment.

Congratulations!

You will be saying, "I do," in one of the most

beautiful venues in the city.

It's happening!

Tia, how are you this morning?

I'm wonderful, Bruce.

It is a beautiful Fridaymorning and love is in the air.

There's not much love out there on inbound 295.

Traffic is really slow because everybody's merging

into one lane because of all the work that's going on.

- Hmm, if you're heading in that direction,

allow for additional driving time for your morning commute.

Here's Michelle for more traffic details .

Too many times, hey Tracy!

Good morning!

TJ set up a morning meeting.

Oh girl, you look good!

So do you!

Surprise!

Oh my goodness.

To the bride to be, this is just a little something

from all of us at WBX.

Congratulations, girl!

Awe, ya know what,truthfully, I have you to thank!

Had you not let me do that interview with Malcolm,

I might've ended up a miserable, lonely soul.

Shelby, join the party!

Oh, how sweet.

Too bad, I actually have work to do.

Well, from all of us, we still say congratulations

and we just hope and pray you have a beautiful union.

Congratulations again, girl.

- And girl, thanks for giving us all hope.

Oh, see that?

Mm, excuse me ladies.

My man is calling .

Hey babe!

Babe, I need you.

Awe, I need you too.

- No, no, I need you here for brunch.

Right now?

- I'm meeting with Fred Strota and his wife.

I just need you here to entertain her

while I close this deal.

It could be a big client for us.

Well babe, I'm kind of in the middle of this party.

- Babe, I know, I don't wanna pull you away, OK,

but he owns over 50 stores and airports across the country.

He's old school.

They've been married for 40 years

and his wife, Sarina, is a fan of yours, so please,

I know if you're here, this deal is done.

- Well, I am off air and it is Friday.

I guess I can come.

You are my lifesaver.

I love you.

I love you too.

I'll text you the address.

- Your fiance is really determined.

I've never seen anyone go after my husband's business

with such tenacity.

Yes, he's very persistent.

Well, when I see something I want, I go after it, ma'am.

- I imagine that's how he snagged you.

Yes ma'am, it is.

You two remind me of us.

- Ah, if we could only be so lucky.

- Can I get you something to drink?

- Yes, I'd like to have a glass of Pinot Grigio.

- Oh, you need to try their cabernet.

I don't really want red, babe.

You'll love it.

Bring her a glass of the Opus One Cabernet.

Trust me.

So, Mr. Strota, I know that you're close to acquiring

50 fast food chains and we've done seven similar deals

in the last four years.

Four more than any other firm you're considering.

You have all the right things to say, don't you?

Especially when it comes to securing what I deserve.

Bottom line, we're the best team for the job.

You know, this was supposed to be an informal brunch,

which is why I brought Sarina along to begin with.

Don't believe that.

He can't make any decisions without me.

She is right about that.

But I can say that, I am very impressed.

I will be speaking with my partner

about having Wright, Moore, and Wright

handling our legal affairs going forward.

Sounds good.

Well?

I told you.

Perfection.

- Jillian look, TJ threw me a bridal shower

at the office, look!

- Oh, so kind. - Look, look, look!

It's so nice. - Wait, wait.

What is this face, Tia?

Shelby happened.

- I'm gon' have to make a meme of this.

This is the face you make when a guy tell you,

"I got that good Polish sausage,"

but he show up with a vienna sausage.

The disappointment.

Excuse me, can you tell me where I could find--

- Oh I'm sorry, I don't work here.

I don't work here.

Okay.

Why the heck, why they keep thinkin' I work here?

Do I look like a librarian or something?

Well, you are shuffling aroundyour client's books again.

So disruptive!

I am a publicist.

Prominent bookshelf space is everything.

You know that.

When are you going to start your own publishing company?

- Uh, whenever you have a bestseller.

I mean, how great would it be to have your book

splashed on every bookshelf,

The Joy Of Having It All by my girl, Tia Logan.

I can't wait!

Uh, neither can the publisher.

So, what's taking you so long with the next draft?

Between planning the wedding

and Malcolm's social calendar, I'm busy!

Oh, you're stepping into your role as a Steffard.

I mean, trophy wife.

My man sees me as his equal.

Sure, he does.

So what's up with the wedding?

- Well, I have my dress fitting tomorrow

and I made my final payment on the venue yesterday,

so nothing.

Don't start, Jillian. - What?!

Don't!

I didn't say nothin'!

Yes, I, don't start Jillian.

Non-verbal, stop it.

I already told you, Malcolm is buying us a vacation property

and paying for the honeymoon.

I wanna contribute.

Who wants to be one of those women who has to depend

on their man for everything?

Not everything, just this expensive ass wedding.

You shouldn't have to be paying for nothing.

Whatever Jillie, let's go.

- Yeah? - Yeah.

After I get this book.

Really?

What?

You just said who wants to be one of those women

who have to rely on her man for everything.

I don't need him if I got these.

I know 'cause I'm a strong black woman.

Yeah, strong, real strong.

Wow, this is nice and unexpected.

Just a little something special to say thank you.

I couldn't have pulled off brunch without you.

- Awe babe, you did all the work.

I just say there and looked fabulous.

- Well you must've did something right

'cause right after you left, she asked me for your email.

Said she wants to invite you to speak at some

Essence Women's Business Luncheon.

Really?

Babe, how many times do I have to tell you?

We make a great team.
