Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

Chapter 28

It took me four hours to get to Amaty by high-speed rail. The city lights were just coming on. It wasn't as bustling as Hilcord. But it was still brightly lit, exuding the beauty of a small town. Lisa's call came on time. "Are you there yet? Have you found a place to stay?"

She didn't expect me to leave so hastily. When she asked where I was going, I gave her the address and the time of my train ticket.

Lisa asked if I was leaving in such a hurry to avoid Chris. She thought I was afraid that Chris would cling to me.

I told her that she was wrong and that Chris wouldn't do that. He was probably angry now. After all, I had stood him up.

Now, it seemed that I was right. Since the time he had contacted me to ask why I didn't go to register for our marriage, he hadn't sent me a single text or

made a call.

I came here in such a hurry because I had always wanted to come. I also didn't want to be pestered-not by Chris but by Bree and Zack. They would definitely find me and persuade me.

But I've already made up my mind. Persuading me would only waste their energy and exhaust me. Given this, it was better to leave quickly and not give them any chance.

I even put my other frequently used number on airplane mode. Lisa was now calling my secondary number, which even Chris didn't know. This number was my dad's. It had been in the other slot of my phone for ten years, never ringing until now.
