Coaxing Her Back
I've been with Hansen Fullerton for seven years. One day, he tells me he's sick of me and dumps me for a younger, more vivacious woman.
I don't kick up a fuss this time. Instead, I throw away my ring and cut up the wedding gown I've just bought. Then, I take a red-eye flight away from Gold City.
His friends place bets on how long it'll take for me to return and beg for reconciliation.
Hansen sneers. "She'll be back in less than three days, crying and begging me to take her back."
However, more than three days pass without any news from me. Hansen loses his cool and calls me for the first time. "You'd better come back once you've had enough of this, Christine."
All he hears is a man's low chuckle on the other end of the line. "You shouldn't have taken this long to pacify a woman, Mr. Fullerton. Look at how someone's already taken her away from you."
Hansen snarls, "Tell Christine to answer the phone!"
Landon Shore lowers his head to kiss me. "She can't—she's still out of it. I have to kiss her awake first."
