Chapter 4: The Girl Who Brought Him Back
The doctors called it impossible.
They ran every test.
Every scan.
Every examination.
Roman Vale was awake.
But nobody could explain why.
Except Roman.
Because he remembered everything.
The conversations.
The betrayal.
The plan to kill him.
And most importantly…
The little girl who rested on his chest when nobody else cared if he lived.
Emily tried to apologize.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have brought her here.”
Roman looked at Lily sleeping beside him.
Then he looked at Emily.
“You saved my life.”
Emily shook her head.
“No. I just needed somewhere warm for my daughter.”
Roman gave a quiet answer.
“No one has ever done something for me without wanting something back.”
