The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 389

"If you're set on ignoring the reality, there's not much else I can do. But today, I've got you here to let you know I'm done helping you badmouth Dahlia to Mr.

Jenkins."

Wesley said, bowing deeply to Dahlia, who was lying in the hospital bed. "Dahlia, Mr. Jenkins, I'm truly sorry."

As he spoke, he suddenly crouched down, his head bowed, tears streaming down his face.

"I'm really sorry. Seven years ago, when Dahlia was drunk, I fell head over heels for her and lost control, hurting her."

"And now, because of unrequited love, I've been led astray by Evelyn to smear Dahlia, nearly pushing her to the edge."

"I'm not a good person. I owe Dahlia an apology. I'm so, so sorry."

"Don't call me Dahlia. You don't deserve to."

Dahlia was already in tears, collapsing into Charles's arms, sobbing her heart out. "Evelyn, what will it take for you to let me be?"

"Do you really need to see me totally destroyed before you're satisfied?"

Evelyn watched the drama unfold in the hospital room, her voice icy, "Yes, Dahlia, karma's a thing, and no one avoids it forever. Don't get too smug; just because it hasn't caught up with you yet doesn't mean it won't."

She had lost again.

She had underestimated Wesley's feelings for Dahlia.

She never thought that even when Dahlia was about to destroy him, he'd soften after her suicide attempt and choose to stand by her.

Without evidence from Wesley, Charles believed Dahlia.

Once more, she was back to square one.

It hurt like hell, but Evelyn refused to let herself fall apart.
