The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 306

Two years back, Evelyn's car took a nosedive into the river, and her body was never found. When the police pulled up the car, something seemed off. After digging into it, they realized this wasn't just some random traffic mishap; someone had messed with the brakes. That's what led to the disaster.

Turns out, he had been nursing a grudge against Evelyn for a while. He used to work as an orderly at a hospital until Evelyn accused him of child abuse, and that cost him his job. The stigma stuck, leaving him jobless, and he blamed Evelyn for his downward spiral, itching for revenge ever since.
