On Her Wedding Day, His Death Began

I was Ethan Miller, a boy from a trailer park, who married into the impossibly wealthy Vanderbilt family.

My life with Vicky was a gilded cage – opulent, yes, but undeniably a prison.

My stutter, a constant echo of my humble beginnings, always made me feel like an outsider in her world.

But nothing prepared me for the day Vicky believed I'd abducted her ‘lover,' Julian Astor.

Her voice, usually just sharp, turned venomous.

She threatened to destroy my only family, my beloved grandparents, if I didn't produce him.
