💔🔥 Bethany Pressures Larry About Marriage Counseling — Then Larry Gives Her a Shocking Answer!
🚨 Bethany is determined to save her marriage and demands an answer from Larry about counseling. But Larry refuses—and the conversation quickly turns into a heated confrontation about their entire relationship, Brooke, money, and whether their marriage is even worth saving. 😱💔
🎬 CHAPTER 1 — Bethany Finally Asks Again
The house was unusually quiet.
Larry was sitting comfortably, trying to enjoy some peace after everything that had happened with Brooke.
Bethany walked into the room and sat nearby.
She had been thinking about one question for days.
She had already asked Larry about marriage counseling.
He told her he needed time to think.
Bethany had tried to give him that time.
But now she couldn't wait any longer.
BETHANY
“So, Larry… have you made your mind up yet?”
Larry looked confused.
LARRY
“Made my mind up about what?”
BETHANY
“Counseling.”
Larry immediately sighed.
LARRY
“You just asked me.”
BETHANY
“I asked you last night too. I gave you time. I didn't pressure you.”
Larry looked at her.
LARRY
“Bethany, asking me again is pressure.”
🔥 CHAPTER 2 — Bethany Says Their Marriage Is Falling Apart
Bethany's frustration finally came out.
BETHANY
“How much time do you need, Larry?”
Larry remained quiet.
BETHANY
“Our marriage is in shambles. I don't know how many times I have to say it.”
Her voice became emotional.
BETHANY
“If you want something fixed, you have to actually try to fix it.”
Larry leaned back.
LARRY
“I've been trying.”
BETHANY
“How?”
LARRY
“I'm still here, aren't I?”
Bethany stared at him.
That answer only made her more frustrated.
BETHANY
“Being here isn't the same thing as working on our marriage.”
😤 CHAPTER 3 — Larry Refuses Counseling
Bethany took a deep breath.
BETHANY
“Why don't you want to go?”
Larry finally gave her a direct answer.
LARRY
“Because I don't believe in it.”
Bethany looked stunned.
BETHANY
“You don't believe in marriage counseling?”
LARRY
“No.”
Bethany couldn't believe what she was hearing.
LARRY
“I don't want to pay somebody to sit there and listen to our problems.”
BETHANY
“That's literally what counselors are trained to do.”
LARRY
“We talk to our parents. We talk to our friends. We figure things out ourselves.”
Bethany shook her head.
BETHANY
“And how is that working for us?”
Silence.
💥 CHAPTER 4 — The Argument Gets Personal
Larry's patience began to disappear.
LARRY
“I gave you a home.”
BETHANY
“And?”
LARRY
“I let you become a stepmother to Brooke.”
BETHANY
“You keep bringing up things from the past.”
LARRY
“Because they matter.”
Bethany's voice became sharper.
BETHANY
“You've taken that title away from me more than once.”
Larry shook his head.
LARRY
“I can't talk to you.”
BETHANY
“You can. You just don't want to hear what I'm saying.”
The room became tense.
Neither one wanted to back down.
🚨 CHAPTER 5 — Larry Gives Bethany His Answer
Bethany looked directly at Larry.
BETHANY
“So do you want this marriage or not?”
Larry paused.
Bethany waited.
Finally, Larry answered.
LARRY
“No. I'm not going to counseling.”
Bethany's expression dropped.
BETHANY
“So you don't see the value in our marriage?”
LARRY
“That's not what I'm saying.”
BETHANY
“Then what ARE you saying?”
Larry stood up.
LARRY
“I'm saying I don't believe a stranger is going to fix what we couldn't fix ourselves.”
Bethany stared at him.
She had wanted an answer.
Now she had one.
😳 CHAPTER 6 — Then Brooke's Name Gets Brought Into It
Bethany wasn't ready to let the conversation end.
BETHANY
“You keep saying you don't want to talk to someone, but look at everything happening with Brooke.”
Larry's expression changed.
LARRY
“Don't bring Brooke into this.”
BETHANY
“Why not? Everything in this house connects back to the problems we've been having.”
Larry shook his head.
LARRY
“Brooke needs guidance. That doesn't mean our marriage needs a stranger.”
BETHANY
“Maybe everybody in this house needs somebody to listen.”
Larry looked away.
The argument had now become much bigger than counseling.
🚗 CHAPTER 7 — Larry Brings Up Everything He's Done
Larry began listing everything he believed he had done for Bethany.
LARRY
“Every time you wanted to travel, I went with you.”
LARRY
“You wanted to go to Miami. I came to Miami.”
LARRY
“You wanted to go to Chicago. I came to Chicago.”
Bethany folded her arms.
BETHANY
“That's the bare minimum.”
Larry immediately reacted.
LARRY
“The bare minimum?”
Bethany didn't back down.
BETHANY
“Yes. Being married means more than providing a house.”
Larry shook his head.
LARRY
“And being married means both people have to put in effort.”
Bethany became quiet.
That statement hit differently.
🔥 CHAPTER 8 — Bethany Makes One Last Plea
Bethany's anger slowly turned into disappointment.
BETHANY
“I'm not asking you to go because I hate you.”
Larry looked at her.
BETHANY
“I'm asking because I love you and I don't want us to destroy everything we've built.”
Larry remained silent.
BETHANY
“I want somebody who can help us communicate without us constantly fighting.”
Larry took a long breath.
LARRY
“I hear you.”
Bethany waited for more.
But Larry didn't say anything else.
For Bethany, his silence was almost worse than an argument.
🚨 CHAPTER 9 — Then Brooke's Car Situation Makes Everything Worse
Just when the conversation seemed to be ending, the subject of Brooke came up again.
Larry was already frustrated by everything happening with her.
Brooke had made several decisions that had left both parents concerned.
Larry knew it was time for Brooke to understand that being an adult came with responsibilities.
LARRY
“And while we're talking about responsibility, Brooke needs to learn too.”
BETHANY
“What are you planning to do?”
LARRY
“I'm not going to keep rescuing everybody from every decision they make.”
Bethany looked at him carefully.
She knew Larry was serious.
But she also knew Brooke would not take the next conversation well.
😱 THE MARRIAGE MAY BE AT A BREAKING POINT
Bethany wanted counseling because she believed their marriage could still be saved.
Larry gave her a clear answer: he refuses to go.
But now another problem is waiting.
Larry is preparing to have a serious conversation with Brooke about her car, her responsibilities, and the consequences of her choices.
And Bethany may not agree with the way Larry plans to handle it.
🔥 Will Bethany finally walk away from the counseling conversation?
💔 Is Larry secretly giving up on the marriage?
🚨 And what will Brooke say when Larry confronts her next?
🔥 WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
Larry has made his decision about counseling—but the next confrontation with Brooke could push the entire family to another breaking point.
