The Day Our Promise Breaks

Evelyn signed up late, so there was only one spot left in the competition. She worked on her design draft overnight, submitting it just before the deadline.

A day later, the organizers called her and asked her to arrive at Skyline Tower by 2 p.m. to compete on-site for the last spot with the eight contestants who had already passed. Evelyn was worried about traffic in the afternoon and decided to take the subway.

When she got out of the subway station, she immediately spotted a Rolls-Royce Ghost parked at the entrance of the building.

That was Charles' car.

The car door opened, and Charles stepped out first. He walked to the back seat, bent down, and gently lifted Sandy from her child seat.

The little girl wrapped her arms around Charles' neck, smiling sweetly at him. "Thank you, Daddy. I love you the most."

Standing beside the father and daughter, Dahlia posed gracefully, feigning jealousy. "You love daddy the most. What about me?"

"Of course, I love you, too. Mommy, give me a kiss." Sandy's smile were sweet as honey. She pouted playfully, waiting for Dahlia to come closer.

The smile on Dahlia's face deepened, and her gaze towards her daughter became even more tender. She didn't miss this chance and moved closer.
