His tone was firm, leaving no room for negotiation. It was a decision, plain and simple. But who on earth did he think he was, making decisions for her?
“In your dreams!” Evelyn snapped back, her face like a storm cloud. She tried to yank her hand away from Charles, her movements sharp and decisive, as if she were trying to rid herself of something dirty.
But Charles had a grip like a vice. No matter how hard Evelyn struggled, she couldn't break free.
“Charles, let her go! Have you lost your mind? You can’t just take whatever you want! Who do you think you are?!” Adam shouted as he rushed over from the other side of the car. With his one good hand, he grabbed Charles's wrist, trying to pry him away.
Even on his best day, Adam was no match for Charles, and after the car accident, he was running on fumes. His efforts barely made a dent.
Adam cursed himself for calling Charles over in the first place. This guy was impossible!
Seeing that Charles wouldn’t let go, Adam didn’t hold back and swung at his face. But Charles was quick, pulling Evelyn aside and pinning her against the car door once more.
Adam’s fist hit nothing but air, and he stumbled, nearly falling over. Just as he regained his footing and prepared to charge again, security, called by Dahlia, swooped in and restrained him.
Adam was dragged to the side, pressed against the hood of the car, and held down.
“Don’t hurt him,” Charles ordered, his voice cold as ice when he saw the rough way security handled Adam. They immediately eased up, keeping Adam pinned without causing harm.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn)
What a bad novel. Evil deeds rules the entire story, no ending, villains characters succeed, no way out for the good people. I was hoping for better twists but disappointed again and again. Time close the book for me, no more, enough....
When will Evelyn's sufferings end? You mean to say evil rules the world? No longer funny, the twists are getting ridiculous....
Wow Finally! Thanks!...
More chapters please...
