Chapter 316 Chloe, I'll Take You Home

I had no idea what the grandmaster intends to do to Carter, but I understood that god things don't simply appear out of nowhere. If keeping my life means Carter has to be sacred, then I wouth dres give it up. Carter had already given me more love than I deserved How could I ask him to give up everything for

me?

Desperately, I pounded on the wooden door again and again, only to be thrown back each time by a golden barrier of light.

What else is left for me to try?

1 lifted my gaze to the Divine Statue placed at the altar. Falling to my knees, I bowed deeply in fervent prayer, over and over again, with unwavering devotion

"If someone must die, let it be me. Carter deserves to live"

"I have nothing left-no body, no life, just this fragile thread of a soul. There's nothing more that can be

taken from me."

The soft light of the Divine Statue touched me, offering a faint trace of warmth.

I suddenly looked up, and for a moment, it felt as if I caught a glimpse of mercy from the golden Divine Statue.

"Chloe."

Carter's voice, familiar and comforting, reached my ears from behind. I spun around and found him standing just a few steps away.

Without a moment's pause, I rose from the ground and rushed toward him.

He pulled me into his arms, and though we couldn't feel the warmth of each other's touch, the bond of love between us was undeniable.

Rising on my tiptoes, I leaned close to his ear and softly murmured. "I don't know what lies ahead, but if you can still hear me, there's something I need to tell you."

"Mm?" he responded, waiting.

"In the past, I was overwhelmed with gratitude for you. Every little thing you did moved me deeply. Back then, I couldn't tell if what I felt for you was truly love. I always thought there was time, that we could take things slow. But now, with everything that has happened, I regret it. I regret not telling you sooner

I reached out and gently traced his brow, feeling him shudder in response. As the golden light of the Divine Statue filled his eyes, I saw my reflection in their depths.

It wasn't Zoey I saw, but Chloe.

With God above as a witness, I. Chloe Sander, vow today and for all of eternity; in this life and every life to come, I will love only Carter. To live is to be his, to die is to remain his, even in spirit. If I break this vow,
