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

After the man left, James's face was a mask of pale and livid hues.


It all came back to him. Two months ago, he had taken his team to the man's law firm for a security check. Rebecca had pestered him to come along, so he'd brought her with him.


The entire way there, she had been asking about the man's net worth.


He wasn't a fool. Once the rose-tinted glasses came off, it only took a moment of reflection for certain things to become painfully clear.


His knuckles white from how tightly he clenched his fists, he stared at Rebecca, who, overwhelmed by guilt, couldn't bring herself to meet his eyes.


“Weren't you the one who told me that Emma had shamelessly seduced him? That to get the lawsuit against me dropped, you had no choice but to kneel and beg him, only for him to use that to threaten and force himself on you?”
