The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn) novel Chapter 463

"Don't even think about it!"

Evelyn fought with everything she had, frustration boiling over into a frenzy of kicks and punches as she struggled to escape Charles’s grip. His eyes were dark and intense, like storm clouds gathering.

Fearing that Evelyn's fierce resistance might end up hurting her, Charles pushed her against the car, deciding to take control.

"Charles, keep your hands off me!" Evelyn's face twisted with anger as his hand moved to her pant leg, making her body go rigid with tension. Her struggles only intensified.

But Charles held her firm, pinning her between his body and the car. The more she fought, the closer they were pressed together. Evelyn realized this, her body stiffening even more, unable to move. She pushed against him with all her strength, trying to shove him away.

"Charles, you brute, let go of Evelyn!" Adam shouted, his eyes blazing with fury as he tried to break free from the two security guards restraining him. But Greenrose's security team was well-trained, and in his weakened state after the accident, he was like a caged animal, powerless to help as Charles tormented Evelyn.

Charles could feel Evelyn's rejection like a physical blow. A sharp pain spread through his chest, slowing his searching hand for just a moment. But then he pushed on, moving quickly. It wasn't winter yet, so the layers of clothing were thin. He soon found the recorder in Evelyn's inner pocket.
