Chapter 52

He kept promising her over and over again, saying, “I’m sorry that I am the reason you got hurt again, Celena. I promise I won’t let anybody harm you again from now on. I want to let you live as you please. I’ll get you whatever you want, even if you want the whole world.”

Liam remained sitting next to the bed while holding her hands and looking at her.

Clora was a woman Liam had loved for years. He had wanted to give her all he had in the past.
