Chapter 431

Wesley was taken away, and everything felt final, like the last page of a book.

"Brooks, let's head back to the hospital," Evelyn sighed, her spirit and body utterly drained. She couldn't bear another glance at Charles or Dahlia.

"Alright," Brooks replied softly, wrapping an arm around Evelyn as they made their way out, moving together with a closeness that spoke volumes.

Charles's gaze darkened, the sight of them together like a thorn in his side. Instinctively, he took a step forward, yearning to pull Evelyn into his embrace. But as soon as he moved, Dahlia's grip on his wrist brought him back to reality. "Charles, can you help me with the paperwork?" Dahlia asked, holding onto his hand, her voice laced with a sweetness that belied the jealousy simmering beneath. She pretended not to notice how his attention had wandered to Evelyn.

"Okay," Charles murmured, his voice barely above a whisper. Reluctantly, he tore his gaze away from Evelyn and joined the officers to assist Dahlia with the necessary signatures.

Once Charles disappeared from sight, Dahlia's eyes found Evelyn, who was already stepping out of the police station, her envy and hatred barely concealed. Her hands clenched on the wheelchair's armrests, seething with an anger she couldn't suppress. She couldn't just let Evelyn walk away after everything that had happened.
