Chapter 4

The hospital room was quiet.Liam was still regaling Poppy with stories about Soren’s cold indifference toward Evangeline during the years she’d been away.-“One year, Evangeline threatened to end her life–sent Soren a photo of her slashed wrists,” he said, voice full of drama. “You’ll never guess what he did.”Poppy looked at him, eyes wide.“Soren didn’t even blink. He went straight home, dragged her out, and tossed her onto the porch. Told her, if you want to die, do it outside–don’t dirty the house.”
