The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 355

If Charles actually believed Wesley was out to harm Dahlia, he'd have no qualms about sending him to prison, just like he did two years ago, ensuring he got the toughest sentence possible. Back then, when the whole thing with Evelyn went down, Wesley willingly took the fall for Dahlia and their daughter, because he loved Dahlia deeply. He genuinely thought Dahlia loved their daughter just as fiercely and would look after her. Wesley had no worries leaving Sandy in Dahlia's

But now, knowing the truth about how Dahlia treated Sandy, Wesley couldn't shake the images of Sandy's bruises and the pinpricks on her skin.

What he knew might just be scratching the surface. Without his watchful eye, who knows what else Sandy would endure? The thought of his precious daughter suffering again was unbearable. So, he couldn't afford to land in jail.
