Crawling Back To Her Series Redemption and Refuse novel Chapter 71

Book6 Chapter1.

The first snowfall in Northridge came earlier than usual this year.

Amidst the swirling snow, I stood at the courthouse entrance, my emotions a chaotic mix.

Ryan Mitchell and I had decided to remarry. This was our fifth attempt at getting here.

The first time, Ryan said he had an urgent project to handle.

The second time, Lana had a fever.

The third time, Lana got into a car accident.

The fourth time, Lana had a family emergency.

And this time, Lana had gotten lost.

"What? You're lost? Don't worry, I'll be there right away."

Ryan furrowed his brows as he spoke into the phone.

My heart sank, as if struck by a heavy blow.

It seemed like our plans to get the marriage license would be ruined again.

Sure enough, Ryan turned to me and said, "Becca, Lana needs help right now. Let's come back next time to get the license."

As he spoke, he was already reaching for his car keys, ready to leave the courthouse.

I grabbed his arm.

"We're almost there."

"Can't you get the license first and then go?"

He pulled his arm away, his tone irritated.

"Now's not the time to argue, Becca. We can get the license any time, but Lana is really scared right now!"

With that, he left without looking back.

A bystander nearby couldn't hold back, saying, "Is that really her husband?"

"Leaving on the day they're supposed to get married? If it were me, I'd kick him right where it hurts."
