Even after Her Death (Chloe and Luke) novel Chapter 388

Chapter 388 Sinister Heart 

Chapter 388 Sinister Heart 

A sharp jolt rang through my mind, and I felt as if everything had exploded in an instant

It didn’t take long to piece it together. I had been betrayed by Damian

It all made sense now. No wonder Carter had ended up in trouble. Instead of getting him back immediately or sending me to find him, Damian had insisted on taking a detour to get me

Perhaps from the very start, he had planned to get rid of me

Maybe Carter had been in a lifethreatening situation. Damian was probably worried that Carter wouldn’t take the sedative, so, in the end, he chose to make sure I was safe by sending me to the hotel

Damian was Carter’s closest ally. Carter had trusted him completely, giving him control over everything- his will, his assets. He’d never had a reason to doubt him

But we had missed one

key detail: Damian was also a part of the Dolton family

That’s when everything clicked. The Doltons hadn’t meant to hurt Carter. When Carter had been injured, Damian had been sent by the Doltons to protect him

He had stood by Carter through it all, forming a bond that ran deep

Damian had become Carter’s righthand man, hiding the fact that I had been reborn from the Doltons

Carter, determined to change my fate, had even prepared for his own death. He was willing to remove all obstacles in my path before he left

His plan was to take down the Carlyn brothers and save Whitney

At the same time, Amber must have figured out I was Chloe when she saw the Stone of Duality around my neck

She had likely shared the information with the Carlyn brothers. To stop Carter from changing my fate, Damian had handed me over to them

His plan was simplehe needed me dead before the Stone of Duality could do its work

As long as I was gone, Carter would live

Now it made sense why I had heard a voice say, I’m sorry, ma’am,just before Host consciousness

At the time, I had been so dizzy that I thought it was just a hallucination

What should I do with you, Damian

A bitter laugh escaped me. I had already figured out Carter’s plan, but it was you who had pushed me toward death.. 

Fate. That’s what this was, wasn’t it? No one could predict what was going to happen next 

Should I be angry at Damian? He had, after all, tried to protect me in his own way

But the truth was, the heart was never a simple affair. He had his own reasons and people he cared about

Now that I understood it all, I felt an unexpected calm cttle over me

The fear I had felt earlier stemmed from the unknown 

Now, with most of the truth revealed, there was no reason for me to keep up the act.. 

My hands weren’t tied, and I slowly sat up from the cushion

You know everything now.” 

Yael studied me, his eyes showing surprise. So, you’re not scared? I figured you would be.” 

I probably should be,I replied. But now it feels like the weight over me has finally lifted. It’s almost a relief 

I met his eyes directly. Yael, are you planning to make a statue out of me?” 

My calmness seemed to catch him off guard. He chuckled softly. What led you to that conclusion?” 

I couldn’t help but feel a little crazy myself. Just a moment ago, I’d been afraid he’d discover my secret, Careful with every move

But now, with everything out in the open, it was like I was going all in, without caring about the 

consequences

Are the stone sculptures in the matrimonial room and the wax figures in the basement your doing?

asked

Yes,he replied, without hesitation

I hadn’t expected him to be so straightforward. His bluntness took me by surprise

My stomach growled loudly, breaking the silence. I looked at him and said, I haven’t eaten since yesterday afternoon. Do you have anything?” 

Since he hadn’t killed me while I was unconscious, I figured I was safe, at least for the moment

The last thing I wanted was to be hungry during all of this

I’ve got some,he said

Just like the first time we met, he was eager to help, pulling out bread and milk

I didn’t hesitate. At this point, what did it matter? I was already caught, so why worry if he’d drugged it

Food was my priority 

I bit into a piece of cake too quickly and nearly choked on it

He quickly handed me a straw. Slow down.” 

After a few bites, I felt a little stronger
