Everyone believes Evelyn is Xander’s hopeless doormat, drinking for him, bleeding for him, and staying by his side as his most disposable secretary. In truth, she approaches Xander only because she sees him as a stand-in for her late lover Jasper, and to fulfill Jasper’s dying wish to protect Xander for seven years. During those years, Xander allows Selena to humiliate and hurt Evelyn repeatedly. From life-or-death races to skydiving, Evelyn risks everything for him. But when Xander finally falls in love, she has already chosen to walk away.
