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 replace 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 life-threatening 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 1

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 right-hand 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 simple-he 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?" I

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.

I decided to keep going. "Why are you so obsessed with one? One statue wasn't enough; you needed a wax figure too. Are you in love with me?"

The corner of Yael's mouth twitched. "I thought I was the one with the issues. Are you really going to discuss your dismembermem in the middle of a meal?

I stared out the window at the empty, barren landscape, letting out a soft sigh. "Honestly, I wasn't always like this. some twisted person. It's all because of you. Back then, I was on edge every single day. But

I now, with everything in your hands, I'm not as frantic

It felt as if the idea of fate had finally taken root in my mind.

A voice, faint but clear, echoed inside me. There's no way out. You're going to die.

The car was quiet, with nothing but the occasional rustling of the bag in my hands breaking the stillness.

Just as I thought the silence would stretch on forever, he spoke. "Yes, I like you."
