Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

"I'm from the Greenland Park Demolition Permits Office. We posted the demolition notice in the community earlier. There are still some procedures that need to be completed. You're the last one we're waiting for, so please come over right away."

This instantly made my already gloomy mood even worse.

I had known about the demolition procedures for a while, but I kept putting them off.

To me, it felt like if I didn't sign the papers, they couldn't demolish the place, and my home would still be there.

But I couldn't delay things any longer. I still had to sign the papers, and the place would be torn down.

I couldn't be the holdout who delayed the entire demolition process. I didn't want to be the one preventing others from moving into their new homes.

After all, the neighborhood was very old. Who wouldn't want to live in a new community with new houses?

"Okay, I'll come over right now," I agreed promptly.
