The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 343

Sending someone to prison for life seemed like a foolproof plan, with no

downsides whatsoever. But now, Evelyn was still alive, and Wesley was out. The timing couldn't have been better. He could once again be the sharpest tool in her arsenal to deal with Evelyn. And this time, she'd make sure to tie up loose ends by getting rid of Wesley too.

While hatching the nastiest plan in her mind, Dahlia kept her tone sweet and comforting for Wesley. "Wesley, don't talk like that. For you and Sandy, I'd do anything willingly. You should never doubt my feelings for you."

Her voice was laced with an added touch of sorrow. "It's all my fault! I'm the one to blame. Dahlia, please don't cry. Seeing you upset breaks my heart! I'll listen to you. Whatever you want, I'm here, okay?"

On the other end, Wesley was drowning in regret, so much so that he smacked himself across the cheeks twice. Dahlia waited until he was done before

pretending to intervene. "Wesley, what on earth are you doing? Hurting yourself is like stabbing me in the heart."

"You know how much you mean to me..." Dahlia's voice dripped with pretend anguish, which oddly filled Wesley with joy and relief.
