Courtney: Did you hear? Kate and Christopher are trying to annul 1 their marriage.
Ray: What?! They’ve only been married for two months! What brought this on?
Courtney: I have no idea. Neither of them is underage or bigamists and they married of their own free will, so I don’t know how they can ask for an annulment 2.
Ray: I’ve heard that you can get an annulment if there’s some kind of fraud. Maybe they’re asking for the annulment on those grounds.
Courtney: Maybe. I wish I knew more. Ooh, could they be related by blood and didn’t know it? It’s sounding more and more like a soap opera.
Ray: I suppose we shouldn’t speculate. It’s sad when any marriage ends, even if it only lasted two months. Something must be really, really wrong.
Courtney: Or else...
Ray: Or else, what?
Courtney: Or else, Christopher finally figured out what a witch Kate is.
Ray: Oh, somebody’s a little catty today. Do I detect some jealousy 3 here?
Courtney: Me? Jealous of Kate? Forget it! I’ve known her for years and I just wouldn’t wish her on my worst enemy!
