The Wrong Vow, My Perfect Match Chapter Eighty Nine
EvelynThe paramedics had arrived. The police kept me several feet away from the edge, but I wanted to be closer. I needed to know that he was alive."Ma'am," the officer beside me urged, one hand resting on my arm, "you need to stay back. Let them work.""He is down there," I cried, pulling against his grip. "He is in that car, and I need to see him. Please, just let me see him.""They are getting to him," he assured me. "The best thing you can do right now is stay here and let them do their job."I stopped struggling and stood at the edge of the police tape, staring down.The car had not gone over cleanly.It had tumbled.What lay at the bottom of the cliff barely resembled the vehicle I had been driving twenty minutes earlier. The roof had caved in. The doors had burst open from the impact. One wheel was still spinning slowly, as though it had not yet realized everything else had come to a stop.I pressed both hands over my mouth.There was blood on my palms from where I had struck

Serena I had thought it would not work, but watching Julian battle for his life while Evelyn wept beside him had been the most satisfying thing I had seen in months. Running from that house with the sound of Evelyn's screams still ringing in my ears felt like winning. I ran until the house was far enough behind me that I could breathe without looking over my shoulder. Then I slowed to a brisk walk, keeping to the edges of the road where the trees offered enough cover, my mind already moved ahead to what came next. I found a phone stand at a small petrol station and made my call to Charlie. When I was done, I stood there for a moment and let the feeling settle over me, clean and complete, the particular satisfaction of a plan that had finally delivered what it promised. Then I started walking back. The hideout looked exactly as I had left it, which was the first thing I checked. I slipped inside and went straight to the bathroom to clean up and change. Later, I stood in the small

CharlieSomething about today did not sit right with me. I could not tell if it was superstition, but my gut was doing something I had learned over the years never to ignore.I had been in the office since seven, earlier than usual, filing documents that had been sitting on my desk for weeks, trying to occupy my hands with something productive because occupying my hands was the only way to stop my mind from running the same loop it had been running for months.Evelyn's face, Leo's voice through Julian's phone. The photograph of Frank at Serena's visitation table. All of it cycling without resolution.I had just picked up my pen to sign the third document in a stack of twelve when a knock sounded.It was one of the junior analysts, a young man whose name I always forgot and always felt guilty about forgetting. He stood in my doorway with an expression I could not immediately read."Sir.""What is it?" I asked without looking up."You need to turn on the news."Something in his voice ma

EvelynHorror filled my eyes when Serena fired the shot and Julian took it. I watched as he collapsed to the floor unconscious, and for one full second I could not move, could not breathe, could not do anything except stare at him lying there with blood spreading dark and fast across his shirt.Then everything inside me unlocked at once."Help me!" I screamed at the staff still pressed against the wall. "Somebody help me. Now!"They moved immediately, two of them rushing to Julian. I dropped beside him and pressed both hands against the wound the way I had seen done before, feeling its warmth against my palms and telling myself very firmly not to think about what that meant."Julian," I pleaded. "Julian, look at me."His eyes fluttered open slightly, unfocused, and I took that as enough."We are going to the hospital," I assured him. "You are going to be fine. Just stay awake.""Ma'am, the car," the housekeeper called from the doorway."Bring it to the front," I instructed. "Right now

JulianMy phone buzzed repeatedly in my pocket, I had not answered before because I did not want to get bothered, but I finally pulled over and picked it up and the voice in the background could not be mistaken for anyone else.I had been in the documentation office for forty minutes, signing the final papers that would transfer everything to Oakhaven, the new beginning I had been planning for weeks, and my phone had been buzzing since I walked in and I had ignored it the way I ignored everything that interrupted momentum.I almost ignored this one too.I pulled into a side street and answered and held the phone to my ear and heard Serena's voice before I heard anything else, low and deliberate and carrying the particular quality of a woman who had nothing left to lose.I sat completely still for three seconds.Then I started the car.I drove back the way I had come, faster than was sensible, my mind ran through every qu
The Wrong Vow, My Perfect Match Chapter Eighty Four
EvelynI was finally together with the man I loved and there was nothing that could stop me from being happy with him.Three months had passed since Julian and I had found our way back to each other and they had been the quietest, warmest months I could remember in a very long time. The kind that settle into your bones and make you forget what the cold felt like.Leo had stopped asking when we were going home.He had started calling this place home, which told me everything I needed to know about how settled things had become, and every morning watching him run down the hallway toward Julian's room to wake him up for breakfast felt like something I wanted to protect with everything I had.Julian had started talking about going back.Not to the house where everything had happened, somewhere new, somewhere that belonged to the life we were building rather than the one we were leaving behind, and when he talked about it his voice had the particular warmth of a man who had decided what he

Evelyn’s POVI heaved a shaky breath as I stepped out of the Thorne mansion with shaky legs. Dragging my luggage, I flagged down a passing taxi and as I got in and the car drove away, I kept waiting for a relief that didn't come.Instead of relief, a violent wave of nausea rolled to the back of my

Evelyn’s POVCharlie looked at her with such worship it made my stomach turn. He leaned down and kissed her forehead, his eyes never leaving mine as he adored her right in front of me.“We have a lot to talk about, baby. I need to know all that has happened.” Charlie breathed.“Yes baby, I’ll tell

Evelyn’s POVThe next morning, I was in the sitting room, quietly sipping a cup of tea with my eyes all red and puffy from last night’s crying.Charlie sat across from me, dressed in a suit that screamed luxury, even when my clothes were basically rags. He hadn't looked at me once since sitting dow

Evelyn’s POVI heaved a deep breath for the nth time as I folded my hands neatly in my lap and stared at the elaborate dinner that had since grown cold.The dying candles I had lit cast long shadows against the dining walls, but they provided no warmth because in this house, silence was the only th
