I thought this place I escaped to was paradise. She thought everything would be fine if she just ran away from the King of Preston who tried to make her his mistress. But waiting for her in the place she escaped to was another misfortune. The man she had let live 14 years ago put a noose around Vivian’s neck and took away her life and death. When even that wasn’t enough and all of her was trampled. This time she ran away from that man. Vivian prayed. That anywhere without that man would be paradise. So take her to a place where that man doesn’t exist. *** “Did you think the place you ran away to was paradise?” Edwin Bateness was on every path she had passed. It was only Eveline who filled the name Edwin Bateness. He strangled Eveline’s neck, took her breath away, and coveted the most beautiful thing. Then that woman ran away. Edwin prayed. Let him take away her last paradise. Then he could deprive her of even the pretense to run away, and bind her by his side for life.
