L Writes
He called me his burden. I called it my reason to leave.
Three years ago, I saved Julian’s life and lost the use of my leg in the process.
He married me out of guilt and promised to take care of me forever. I thought his kindness was love, I was wrong.
When his beautiful ex-girlfriend, Chloe, returns, everything changes. Suddenly, I’m no longer his wife. I’m a burden. A patient. A problem that needs to be fixed.
Julian believes I can’t survive without him.
But he doesn’t know I’ve already made my decision.
In thirty days, I’m leaving him behind and starting a new life in Zurich, For the first time in three years, I’m returning to the career I gave up, facing the world without fear, and learning to stand on my own.
But the moment Julian realizes I’m truly leaving, everything changes.
The man who once told me I could never live without him is now desperate to keep me from walking away.
But this time, I won’t beg him to stay.
This time, I’m choosing myself.
