The Day Our Promise Breaks

Chapter 508

Charles' voice cracked with emotion, his regret washing over him as tears traced paths down his cheeks. The weight of his guilt felt immense. They say men don't cry easily, but here he was, kneeling at the doorstep for hours, memories of past years flooding his mind. Each recollection deepened his regret, and with that came a crushing sense of debt. He felt he owed Eve and their daughter more than he could ever repay.

He could spend his life trying to make it up to Eve. But for Charlotte, there was no way to make amends. The burden of that irreparable regret pierced his heart like a needle, the pain spreading through his body and leaving him pale and weary.

Evelyn listened to his confession, her eyes lowered as she met his gaze filled with guilt. She had known this day would come when Charles would finally see Sandy for who she truly was. From the moment Charles had pushed Adam to donate a kidney for Sandy, Evelyn had awaited this revelation. Now, it had arrived.

Evelyn gently touched a photo of Charlotte, holding it close to her heart. Though she didn't care for Charles' apologies, Charlotte had longed for his fatherly love. Her eyes, cold and unwavering, bore into Charles. "Charles, what's the point of kneeling here? Until Charlotte's death is avenged, you don't even have the right to apologize to her!"

Charles' proud stature faltered at Evelyn's words. His lips parted, but he struggled to find the right words. He couldn't deny his role in Charlotte's death. Had he not prioritized Sandy for a kidney, Dahlia wouldn't have been able to take Charlotte's. Even if he hadn't known Dahlia's actions, his initial decision had set everything in motion.
