All Comments on 'Sod's Law Pt. 05'

Somehow I missed that Helen was adopted, needless to say I didn't see that one coming!

Now your just adding random drama foe the sake of things.

The plot thickens. I’m loving every twist & turn. Thank you for writing such an engrossing story. Looking forward to the next chapter.

So it seems that you are dragging this out...seems that Brits take forever to get things accomplished. Hope this ends soon or it may be Sod's law for the story as well.

A Treat

You actually really blew it with this chapter, out of all the possibilities you went and chose the worst and made it even worse with their reactions to it. Not sure if this was your plan from the get go or it developed with the writing but it does the story no favours either way. Hopefully you wrap it up soon or there won't be anything left to digest once the readers get fed up with it.

1*

All births, deaths and marriages are centralized in the UK, and are now available online. There are no local registry offices, and never were. Before 1860 records were kept by parishes.

The girl is a lawyer, practicing law. She, her address and details, are in the Bar Records, available to any Solicitor or Barrister in the UK.

Sort of predictable story route for this, was a good read but this chapter doesn't do the story any justice. I only hope they actually won't reconcile now and move on to other 'new' people to put the story out of its misery.

Destroyed a good story won't finish the series.

She doesn't even talk to him!? Or say goodbye!? Or open a letter just out of curiosity? It's really manufactured and when you have two fairly relatable characters it just sucks for them to be separated in such a contrived way before the chapter ends. I know you meant for it to be a cliffhanger, but this isn't an "I'm so excited to see what develops from this" cliffhanger, this is a "I'm pissed off and don't have any closure with how stupid these characters are and how they're not talking to each other, so now I have to wait 24 hours while this stupid chapters going to be stuck in my head all day." Please post the next one as early as possible.

He knows the truth and she knows a different "truth". He is right and she is wrong but in a relationship between two people that is not the pathway.

But great job building tension, suspense, and momentum. What a great basis for the storyline.

Your main male character is so passive and slow, how could he possibly be a lawyer. The female character is just a stupid bitch.

I am in favour of reconciliation normally but like many are so annoyed by the contrivance I hope they don't.

Whatacunt. Let her get married and then publish the truth in the newspaper
