The Day Our Promise Breaks -
Chapter 631
Chapter 631
Before Charles could take Evelyn away, Luna gave Charlie a subtle signal.
"Mom..."
Charlie suddenly called out, her voice trembling.
That single word-Mom-hit Evelyn like a jolt of electricity. It surged through her, giving her a strength she didn't know she had.
Charles froze, just as stunned. For a split second, he thought Charlie had
recognized Evelyn, that she was calling out for her.
He stopped in his tracks, automatically glancing back.
Evelyn seized the moment. With every ounce of strength in her body, she shoved Charles aside.
He stumbled, caught off guard.
Evelyn bolted forward.
"Charlie!"
Her baby-right in front of her!
Sobs tore from Evelyn's throat, her voice raw and broken, overflowing with the shock and relief of having her little girl back in her arms.
In that instant, Evelyn saw nothing but her daughter's face the little girl she'd dreamed of every night. She ran to her, reckless and desperate, and threw herself toward Charlie.
"Eve!" Charles called out, reaching for her, but he was too late.
Evelyn ducked away from his grasp, dodged past him, and landed right in front of Charlie.
She opened her arms, ready to pull her precious daughter close, to hold her tight and never let go.
"Charlie, Mommy's here!"
"Ah-!!"
A piercing, almost animalistic scream ripped from Charlie's throat.
She shrank back like a terrified little creature, eyes wide, her small body surging with a surprising strength. Pushing Evelyn away, she fought with all her might.
"No! Go away! Bad person! You're a bad person!!"
Charlie screamed, her tiny hands flailing, batting at the woman who was trying to hug her.

The look in Charlie's eyes was pure terror and rejection-raw and instinctive. It was the same look she'd given Charles, only now even more intense.
Evelyn's arms hung in midair..
She hadn't seen this coming at all. Caught off guard, she took the brunt of Charlie's frantic blows.
But it wasn't the pain that broke her. It was the way her own daughter recoiled from her, as if she were a stranger.
"Sweetheart, it's me... I'm your mom..." Evelyn's voice cracked, torn apart by heartbreak.
She blinked back tears, her vision swimming, her gaze fixed desperately on her daughter.
Charlie was right there, close enough to touch. Evelyn wanted nothing more than to sweep her up
in her arms, to hold her and never let her go.
But Charlie's fierce rejection made her hesitate. She didn't dare reach for her again.
All Evelyn could do was hold out her trembling hands, pleading, "Honey... it's Mommy. Don't you remember me?"
"You're not my mom! Go away! Don't come near me!"
Charlie slapped Evelyn's hands away, then threw herself into Luna's arms, clinging desperately to her neck.
"Mommy! You're my real mommy! I only want you!"
"Don't let them take me away. I hate them. I don't want to be their daughter."
Evelyn watched, shattered, as her daughter chose someone else m calling another woman "Mommy" right in front of her. !
The pain was like a knife to the heart.
"Charlie..." she whispered.
How could her little girl push her away like this?
"Aurora, sweetheart, listen to me. This is your real momĻuña said gently, as if she were trying to help. !
But Charlie recoiled even harder, cutting Luna off.
"Mommy, I hate that woman. I don't want to see her. Please, can we go home?" Charlie buried her face in Luna's shoulder, sobbing so hard she could barely catch ! Read the latest

her breath.
"Okay,
SOO, Aurora, don't cry.
Mommy's taking you home," Luna soothed, unable to watch Charlie cry
herself sick.
She wiped away Charlie's tears, smothering her with kisses and comfort-making
sure Evelyn saw every last bit of it.
