Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 454 Finally, My Sister Was Free

After some lighthearted teasing, they finally seemed to remember I was still standing there and glanced up at me.

Amber shot me a sharp glare, her voice biting. "You cursed child, this is all your fault! It's because of you that Carter got hurt!"

At this point, I had gotten a good sense of Amber's fiery personality. I played along, acting innocent and deflecting the blame. "But I didn't expect Wisteria to attack me like that I'm a victim here too!"

Amber turned to Dominic, and when he caught her fierce gaze, he instinctively rubbed his nose, trying to avoid the confrontation.

"That girl's a little unhinged," he muttered, deflecting the blame. "I told her not to hurt Chloe, but she did whatever she wanted. It's on her, not me."

Seeing Dominic's legs shake as if he might fall to his knees and beg Amber for mercy made me think this drama could go on forever. I feared they'd still be at it when night fell, so I interrupted. "Carter's asleep. He'll be hungry when he wakes up." Without another word, Amber tossed aside the bedsheet and started walking away. "I'll make him some nutritious soup to help him recover."

As soon as she left, Dominic's demeanor shifted. The change in his posture and the intense way he looked at me made it clear that he was no longer the calm, soft-spoken man from the photo.

If not for my connection to Carter, I might have believed he could kill me with one hand.

He was far more intimidating now-muscular and imposing.

It dawned on me that his physical transformation was all for Amber.

The Carlyns were clearly consumed by their own brand of love-struck madness.
