Looking at Nathaniel’s twisted face and hearing his roar, even the bus ticket agent froze.
After snapping out of it, she glared at him coldly. “Who are you? Whoever’s on this bus has nothing to do with you!”
“How can that be? The one sitting inside is my-”
Halfway through the sentence, he suddenly stopped. It hit him that I had nothing to do with him anymore.
I was only his sister–in–law now. He had no right to demand answers about where I was going.
Just then, Catherine came running up from behind, grabbing his hand. “What’s wrong? Did you see someone?”
He clutched at her like a drowning man grabbing a lifeline, pushing her forward. “Catherine, hurry and ask them if the person who just got on the bus was Bella!”
Her excitement from moments ago froze instantly on her face. She shoved him away and said angrily, “Nathaniel, it’s our wedding day today! Why do you care where Bella goes or what she does?
“Gather yourself! I’m your bride now!”
He stood there stunned, unable to say anything.
The bus ticket agent let out a sharp snort, clearly fed up with him. “So you’re just a two–timer.”
Relatives and friends quickly stepped in, apologizing to the bus ticket agent, then dragged him out of the station to continue
the wedding.
