Chapter 234 Finally Together

Carter's fingers grazed my check, his eyes warm, his voice like a quiet stream, "Chloe, are you absolutely

sure about this?"

1 pressed a hand to my chest, feeling the steady rhything beneath. "If a heart is like a cup, I don't know how full mine is, but I do know one thing-it's not empty,

"In my

last life, I was blind, reckless. But in the time I spent as a spirit and through these recent days, I've finally learned who truly matters to me. And, Carter, I know now how much this means to you."

At first, I couldn't grasp the depth of his feelings. I hesitated, unsure, guarding myself. But as the weight of his love became clear and I faced my own growing affection, my resolve solidified. I wanted to take that leap-with him. Life is a book, one page at a time. I'm only 20; there's a lifetime ahead to write our story together.

Why waste it on doubt? Why not choose happiness-far both of us?

1 leaned close, my lips brushing his car. I'm a little nervous, but if it's with you... I want to try. Is that okay?"

Only then did I understand why he always stopped at the last moment. This man-so stubborn, so principled!

I shrugged on a thick coat, slipped into my heels, and nudged him to get moving.

As we reached the door, I glanced back. There, at the top of the staircase, stood Luke, his expression a mix. of longing and defeat.

It struck a chord, pulling me back to when I was eight years old. I'd first seen him standing in that spot, his gaze curious and inviting, ready to welcome me into his world.

But now? Now, all he could do was watch me walk away

I'd already moved into the Bolton Residence, yet the gap between us had never felt wider.

Outside, the snowstorm raged, icy wind whipping through the air, but I felt no sadness.

Instead, a spark of something else stirred in me-excitement.

It reminded me of the way a girl feels when she's just fallen in love, looking forward to seeing the handsome boy from the class next door.
