Left In The Past
After a car accident left Vincent Holt, head of the powerful Holt family, disabled, he stunned high society by publicly seeking a wife.
My father immediately submitted my profile.
“Since you’re so determined to break up with Cole, let’s see if you can land someone from the Holt family instead.”
I refused, only to get slapped hard across the face as I tried to grab his phone. “You have no choice in this.”
With nowhere else to turn, I went to ask Cole Brody for help. He was the only one who could change my father’s mind.
However, I overheard their conversation.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Brody. Vincent Holt is just a cripple. Bethany’s too proud to accept him. Just give it some time. She’ll come crawling back to you.”
Cole chuckled. “Lulu wants a baby. I’m just helping her out by sleeping with her a few times. It’s not a big deal, yet Bethany just won’t leave it alone. I knew you got a way to keep her in check.”
My body went cold.
It turned out that I had been standing alone in a ruin of lies all along.
However, when the Holt family really picked me, they panicked.
