Redemption 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." "That's just too much!"
I agreed -it was too much.
Even the courthouse staff had gotten familiar with us by now.
At that moment, it was finally our turn.
The staff member asked, curious, "He left again?"
"Yeah," I replied with a bitter smile.
"Sorry for the trouble."
Then, I quietly turned and walked away.
Just as I stepped outside, the sky began to release big, fluffy snowflakes.
The cold wind hit me, but it wasn't nearly as chilling as the coldness in my heart.
Ryan Mitchell and I had been married once before, and we spent two wonderful years together.
Back then, he was just an ordinary
college student, and we visited many
place's together, sharing countless seasons.
But later, he got a better jobnoveldrama
opportunity down south, while net
wanted t
to stay in the Northridge to be closer to my parents.
Our different life goals led us to part ways amicably.
Soon after, I heard he started seeing a girl from the south.
They said she was not only beautiful but shared his passion for environmental conservation.
They both joined an environmental
organization, but not long after, they
broke up
due to incovelt
personalities.
Eventually, Ryan came back to me.
That day, Northridge was covered in snow, and we went to our favorite potato noodle shop from our college days.
We used to go there all the time.
The noodles tasted exceptionally good that day, the steam rising as his nose turned slightly red.
He said, "Becky, let's start over."
"I'm willing to stay in Northridge for you."
In that moment, my heart trembled violently.
What do you think?
