From Broken Vow To True Love Chapter 15

Beyond the iron gates, Dorian was soaked to the bone.

His suit was a wrinkled mess, his hair plastered to his forehead.

He was unrecognizable from the proud man at the wedding.

When he saw me, his eyes lit up, and he dropped to his knees in the rain.

“Hannah, I know I was wrong!”

“Chloe was the one who put those photos up! I swear, I didn’t know!”

“Don’t you think it’s a little late for that?”

I stood just inside the gate, looking out at him.

Rain hammered against the umbrella, but my heart was perfectly still.

Dorian knelt in the mud, his hands gripping the iron bars, his knuckles white.

“Hannah, Chloe manipulated me!”

“She was the one embezzling from the company, and she deliberately ruined our wedding!”

“You’re the one I’ve always loved!”

He was crying now, a pathetic, ugly sight.

“Please, just put in a good word for me with Mr. Hawthorne.”

“If he’s willing to let this go, I’ll cut Chloe out of my life completely. I swear it.”

“Can we start over?”

“I’ll treat you right. I’ll never let you down again.”

I looked at him as if he were a total stranger.

“You still don’t get it, Dorian.”

“It wasn’t just Chloe who disgusted me.”

“It was you.”

“You were the one who enabled her, who always took her side.”

“You trampled all over my self-respect and still expected me to wait around for you to come back.”

“You said you loved me, but you were only willing to buy my wedding ring with your leftover change.”

“The only person you love is yourself.”
