Chapter 3: The Secret Behind The Accident
Emily revealed everything.
Three years ago, Julian Sterling was not just a wealthy businessman.
He was preparing to leave the Sterling family empire.
He wanted a simpler life.
With Elena.
But someone didnât want that.
Someone wanted Julian back under their control.
âThe accident wasn't an accident,â Emily said.
Julian stared at her.
âWhat?â
Emily placed another document on the table.
A police report.
A hidden investigation.
âThe brakes on your climbing equipment were damaged.â
Cassandra turned pale.
Julian noticed.
âYou knew.â
Cassandra looked away.
âI suspected.â
The room fell silent.
âYou suspected someone tried to kill me?â
Cassandra whispered:
âYes.â
âThen why didnât you tell me?â
Her eyes filled with tears.
âBecause when you woke up⊠you didnât remember Elena.â
Julian felt sick.
âAnd you decided to become my entire past?â
Cassandra looked at him.
âI loved you.â
But Julian shook his head.
âNo.â
His voice was quiet.
âYou loved the version of me who couldn't remember.â
The words hurt her more than anger.
Because they were true.
Later that night, Julian searched through old Sterling family records.
Hidden inside a locked drawer, he found a letter.
Written in his own handwriting.
