The day a blizzard locked down the city, I was crushed by a cedar tree and bleeding out.
I didn't call my husband for help.
In my previous life, I had. He abandoned his manic first love Rebecca to save me.
I survived, but Rebecca froze to death in the storm.
My husband comforted me, stayed by my side... then pushed me down the stairs a week before my due date, killing our child and injecting me with fatal insulin.
"You made such a big deal out of being hit by a tree, deliberately pulling me away from Rebecca," he snarled, yanking my hair. "You venomous snake, you deserve to suffer a hundred times her pain."
When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the blizzard day.
This time, I let him run to his first love.

Bleeding Snow, Bleeding Heart

Just then, someone suddenly entered the room.


Recognizing who it was, James instantly moved to shield Rebecca behind him, failing to notice the flash of panic in her eyes as she saw the newcomer.


The person who had come in was none other than the plaintiff in the lawsuit against James.


He was a very successful lawyer in the city, highly influential and well-respected in the legal community.


That was why his lawsuit had the power to affect James’s promotion.


James’s expression soured, but he restrained himself. “What do you want?”


The man’s gaze swept past him without a second glance. He walked over to me and offered a bouquet of flowers.


“Miss Emma, I am so incredibly sorry. I just heard what happened to you and rushed over immediately.”


His eyes filled with remorse. “I’ve already looked into it. There was a misunderstanding, yet you still searched all night for my missing daughter in a blizzard, nearly losing your own life. You are my family’s savior.”
