Echoes of a Shattered Vow
In her past life, when a truck barreled toward them, Lillian Hogan instinctively pushed Elton Ruiz out of harm's way. She paid the price with both her legs crushed.
When she woke up in the hospital, the aloof, noble man lowered his head for the first time.
Standing by her bedside, he promised to marry her. Tearfully, she accepted the proposal from the man she'd loved since she was eight.
But after the wedding, Elton often stayed out all night. His attitude toward her grew cold and harsh.
When an infection from her injuries left her on the brink of death, the billionaire didn't spare a single penny for her care.
"I never thanked you for saving my life," he said. "Our marriage was a mistake from the start. Let me go."
His face grim, he pulled out her oxygen tube.
Lillian's eyes widened in shock. In the agony of betrayal and heartbreak, she took her last breath.
If she could do it all over again, she vowed never to love Elton again.
