The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 172

Whether Sandy was truly Dahlia's daughter was still up in the air, but one thing was certain-she couldn't be Charles' kid. It made you wonder, given how Charles showered Sandy with love while practically ignoring Charlie. If Charles ever found out that the girl he

cherished wasn't his own flesh and blood, would he regret the way he treated Charlie?

Evelyn figured she wouldn't even get the chance to explain before Charles decided she was lying because she couldn't stand Dahlia and her daughter. So, instead of heading straight to Charles, Evelyn left the hospital. Just as she stepped outside, a sleek black Maybach rolled up, stopping right in front of her. Brooks, ever the gentleman, hopped out to open the door for her and made sure she got in safely.

Once inside, Brooks handed Evelyn a new smartphone. "Got your SIM card sorted," he said.

"Thanks," Evelyn replied, accepting the phone. Her old one had taken a dip and was smashed beyond repair the night before, so she'd planned to get a replacement after leaving the hospital. It turned out that Brooks had already taken care of it.

"Brooks, I've transfered the money for the phone to your account," she said, tapping away on the phone to make the payment.
