Romance

Her Betrayal Broke More Than Bones

by Nora Blythe

On the day of the World Racing Championship, my race car spins out of control and plunges off a cliff.I use every ounce of my strength to call my wife, Giselle Stewart, for help, but she chooses to ignore me. All I hear through my headset is her icy voice."I told you that you'd regret this, Craig Dorsey."She then turns her back to me, walking away to celebrate her "nephew", Dennis Turner, who wins the championship in the end.Meanwhile, I plummet down the cliff, shatter my spine, and am left paralyzed from the waist down. I'm then reduced to a wretched existence in a wheelchair.Six years later, Giselle finds me just as debt collectors are pinning me to the ground and beating me into a pulp.Her eyes well up with tears."I spent six years searching for you everywhere! Why didn't you come home if you were alive?"I don't answer her.The truth is that every last bit of love I had for her vanishes completely on that day.
