Run Before 1

Chapter 1 Nicole Quinn and Cruz Yarbrough had filed for divorce 99 times. Each time, Cruz would quietly wait for her to cave in during the waiting period, knowing she’d come crawling back. She would coax him, and only then would he agree to cancel the paperwork. At the 100th filing, as Nicole stood up to leave, a staff member behind the desk asked curiously, “So, when are you coming back to cancel it this time?” Nicole glanced at Cruz’s cold figure walking away and told herself inwardly. Would not cancel this time. When the 30–day waiting period ended, it would finally be official. The wind outside the courthouse was biting. Nicole stepped out and watched Cruz slip into his sleek black Maybach without even glancing back at her. ན་ད་ལྟ་ཚན་༨༠་ ང་་འང་རིན་ཆུ་ཆེན་ She walked slowly along the sidewalk. It felt like something inside her had been ripped open, and the cold air just poured in. Suddenly, screeching tires rang out behind her. Before she could react, she was shoved to the ground. Her knees throbbed, and her palms burned. Looking up through messy hair, she saw Cruz’s friends scrambling out of the car. 23:08 Chapter 1 “Crap! We just hit Mrs. Yarbrough!” 1288 Vouchers “Stop calling her that,” someone muttered. “They’re getting divorced. Cruz hasn’t agreed to cancel it yet.” Nicole tried to stand, her legs trembling. Through her messy bangs, she saw the rear window of the Maybach rolled halfway down. Cruz’s cold profile was just barely visible in the shadows. One of the guys asked, “Should we take her to the hospital first, or just head to the party?” Time froze for a moment. Nicole stared at that car window, her heart aching. “To the party.” Cruz’s cold voice came through the car window. Those simple words cut deeper than a knife. eper shi The car sped off, the exhaust fumes hitting her face. Gritting her teeth, Nicole pulled herself up and limped all the way home. Every step made her knees scream, but that was nothing compared to the way her heart felt–shredded and raw. As soon as she got home, she started packing. She pulled out everything that reminded her of their years together. The jewelry he casually threw to her, the lighter he used that she secretly kept, the jar of 999 paper stars she folded for him….. One by one, she tossed them … Read more
