The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 250

Charles had showed up with the police in tow. Deep down, Dahlia was as calm as a summer lake. But the second Charles announced Rosa had passed away. Her tears came flooding out like a broken dam.

She was a mess, crying her heart out, clinging to Charles with a guilty expression. "It was me... I caused Rosa's death," she sobbed.

Charles' face turned serious in a heartbeat. For the first time, he pierced Dahlia with a sharp gaze. His voice was as cold as steel. "What exactly went down?"

He couldn't wrap his head around the idea that Dahlia might actually be behind his grandmother's death. She knew how much his grandma meant to him.

Faced with his grilling, Dahlia's tears flowed even harder, and she apologized through her sobs. "Charles, I'm so sorry. It's all on me. I never should have made that call to you. Because of it, Grandma thought I was the reason behind Charlie's death."

"She wanted to avenge Charlie, and while I was home making soup for you, she tied me up and brought me here. She was just so mad at me and lost control... I tried everything to calm her down, but nothing worked..."

"I caused Grandma's death. It's all my fault! I'm sorry for making you lose her. I'm the one to blame!"
