Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 399 Reaching Out to Carter

Whitney's face drained of color as she read the words, her eyes wide with shock, unable to comprehend what she had just seen.

"How can this be? I distinctly saw Chloe ... "

I motioned to my throat to show that I couldn't speak, then wrote a few words on the foggy glass.

I have been reborn.

It seemed like a light bulb went off in Whitney's mind. "Are you Zoey?"

She now understood the reason behind my approach.

I gave a slight nod and gestured to confirm it was indeed me.

Whitney suddenly embraced me tightly. "Chloe, I'm so sorry, I couldn't protect you. I had to watch those monsters... they did horrible things to your body..." Her voice broke, and she couldn't finish her sentence.

I had been correct all along Taylor's vengeance wasn't just aimed at me, but also at Whitney. He made her witness the horrific destruction of her beloved sister.

No, it wasn't just about me; it was the collapse of the entire Sander family, and Whitney was forced to watch it all.

That was why she had been tormented by nightmares, trapped in a life worse than death, unable to escape.

Tears streamed down her face, and I felt just as helpless.

The sting wasn't just in my nose; my eyes burned as well.

But with my makeup in place, I was afraid the tears would ruin it, so I held them back, forcing myself not to cry.

I softly patted Whitney's back, trying to reassure her that Sadie had returned, that I was truly here to save her.

Whitney cried for what felt like an eternity before finally calming down. I gently wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes, my heart aching for her. "What's happened to your voice?" she asked in a strained voice.

I wrote down a name on the paper, Yael.

"Those devilish brothers! Chloe, I dream of killing them to avenge you, these monsters!"

I continued to ask about what had happened, and Whitney gave a rough explanation, which wasn't too different from what I had suspected.

At first, Taylor had sought revenge on her, tormenting her, but somehow, he ended up falling in love with her. He even wanted to marry her and have children.

"I despise this madman with every fiber of my being. How could I ever bear his child?"

Every time Whitney uttered his name, her voice dripped with venom.
