My Life Was Saved, but My Marriage EndedChapter 1
The moment I heard the violent screech of tires, Oliver McDaniel yanked me into his arms, wedging me between him and the seat. In the end, he was left with fractures across his entire body, confined to the ICU for half a month. I, on the other hand, walked away with just a scratch on my arm. All the while, his phone still buzzed with messages from his lover.
When he finally woke up, a friend joked, “You say you don’t have feelings for her, but you almost gave your life for her.”
Oliver paused for a beat. After ensuring I wasn’t around, he replied coolly, “I saved her because I’m a man, and she’s my wife. It’s my duty to protect her. But the reason I did it? That’s just being a man—I couldn’t help it.”
