The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn) novel Chapter 415

On one hand, she felt a twisted sense of satisfaction. That little brat Charlie was only fit for the ground, having never experienced the fatherly love her daughter now basked in.

“Mom.”

Sandy called out to Dahlia with a perceptive sweetness. Dahlia immediately went over. Sandy, comfortably nestled in Charles's arms, reached out for Dahlia. Without missing a beat, Dahlia reached back, using the moment to cozy up right next to Charles, pressing close against him.

The mature, masculine scent of him stirred something deep within Dahlia. How could she ever let this man go? No way was she going to let Charles find out that Evelyn was actually Debbie. Charles was hers.

Dahlia subtly leaned in closer to Charles. From afar, they looked like the perfect picture of a happy family trio. It wasn’t until the specialists Charles had summoned arrived that Dahlia had to get up. Charles gently laid Sandy down.

After a thorough consultation, the specialists and Charles headed to the office to discuss Sandy’s condition. Dahlia stayed back to care for Sandy. Once Charles had left, Dahlia withdrew her hand, stepped aside, and pulled out her phone. Spotting evidence linking Evelyn to Debbie, a flash of malice crossed her eyes. She couldn't let this slide. Dahlia's fingers flew across the screen, sending off a text.

...

Half an hour later, Charles emerged from the office, his face somber. The doctor's words played on repeat in his mind. Sandy's kidneys were rejecting; things were critical. They needed to find a matching donor fast, or else...

He had already lost Charlie. He couldn't bear to lose Sandy too. No matter what, he was going to find a kidney for Sandy and keep her safe.
