Cold Feet novel Chapter 31

RICK

“Rick!”

I look up and see Lara. I have met her briefly before but she makes enough of an impression that I couldn’t forget her. She’s like a breath of fresh air.

“Lara,” I say. I get up and she shows me into her office.

“Congratulations!” she says. “At last someone managed to nail down Christine. It’s about time she settled down.”

“You would know better than me on that score. You’ve known her a lot longer than me,” I reply as I sit down.

“I guess. I’m just so happy for both of you,” Lara says.

“Thank you,” I say.

Lara leans forward in her chair and pushes stray strands of hair behind her ear. “So do you have anything in mind for a location?”
