I've been married to Lu Chenzhou for three years. He never touched me.

For three years of marriage to Julian, he never once touched me.

Until I accidentally knocked Celeste’s sacred rosary off her wrist. In a furious rage, he stripped me naked and shoved me into the biting snow.

I sobbed, begging him to stop.

“I truly know I was wrong. It’s so cold, I’ll freeze to death.”

But Julian ignored my pleas.

“Stop pretending. Since you dared to touch Celeste’s things, you need a good lesson.”

I lay in the snow all night, my hands and feet completely numb.
