When he reached the lobby, there was no sign of Martin. The only familiar figure he saw was Preacher Rowe, staring out the door. When Jethro rushed to his side, the preacher threw his arm around Jethro's shoulder to try to comfort him.
"Where's Ellen?" the groom asked.
"She's gone."
"What about Martin -- where did he go?"
"I'm sorry, Jethro, he's gone too."
The groom slowly sank to his knees. "It's over. I can't believe it -- It's all over."

Anonymous3 months agoI like this story. Fun and exciting.
I did spot one logical error. The setup for the original con is in error. The story poses the marriage and thus the divorce were both legal. That is false in the real world. A fraud was perpetrated since the female con used an assumed identity and married under that name for purposes of defrauding the mark of money. If she married under her real name, then the marriage and divorce would have been legal. I'm choosing to believe that what the author asserts is true, and that in the author's universe the marriage and subsequent divorce were legal.
