She Chose Him Now She Wants Me Back novel Chapter 292

denly, a chilling suspicion crept into Dominic’s mind. ‘That’s…‘

Charlotte tilted her head. Her big, clear eyes looked up at him with innocent curiosity as she asked, “Mister, what’s wrong?”

Dominic snapped back to himself and forced a smile. “I’m fine. I was just thinking about a few things.”

“Mister, don’t think about sad things!” Charlotte’s bright eyes sparkled. She reached out with her tiny finger and tapped the tip of Dominic’s nose, “Grandpa Eldric told me that if you think about Mommy and Daddy every day, you’ll become very sad.”

Dominic pushed aside his thoughts, focused on Charlotte’s adorable little face, and smiled. “Charlotte, where do you go every day? What do you usually do?”

“I don’t really do much…” She tilted her head and thought for a moment. “Grandpa Eldric is busy every day, but he told me that as long as I’m good and patient, I can grow up to be a good child for Mommy and Daddy.”

Those words made Dominic’s heart skip a beat. His expression turned thoughtful. If that was true, then he needed to speak with

Isaac,

At that moment, Dominic noticed Charlotte’s body slowly becoming ethereal.

She noticed it too and let out a small gasp. “Oh no, Mister. I think I have to go back now!”

Dominic still had many questions, but there was clearly no time.

Charlotte seemed to remember something important and spoke in a hurry. “Mister, put me down. I have something else to give you!”

Dominic set her down.

She rummaged through her pocket and pulled out a small red fruit. “Mister, this is from Grandpa Eldric.”

“What is this?” Dominic asked, studying it with confusion.

It was small and looked like a shriveled apple. The sight of it stirred a strange sense of familiarity.

Charlotte shook her head. “I don’t know what it is either.”

Dominic took it instinctively and felt an unusual cold seep into his palm.

“Mister, squat down a little,” the girl said.

Dominic nodded and crouched.

Charlotte stepped forward and kissed his cheek. “Goodbye, Mister!”

Her small figure slowly faded from view.

“Goodbye…” Dominic stared at the empty room, lost in thought for a long while.

Morning came, and he woke from sleep.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, filling the room with warmth.

As he recalled the events of the night before, Dominic murmured, “Was that a dream?”

His gaze suddenly shifted to the nightstand, and his body stiffened.

A small red shriveled apple rested there in silence.

Dominic reached for it.

The moment his fingers touched the surface, a bone–chilling cold surged through him. It clashed sharply with the warm temperature of the room.

As he held the apple, memories rushed back, and realization struck him.

This was not the first time he had seen it.

Back then, when Dominic was about eight years old…

He returned home after playing outside to find that his grandfather was not there.
