章 161: Chapter 161 That's True Love

••• Charlotte’s POV •••

It hurt...

Why did it hurt as much as breaking a matebond…

“Char!” Live threw her arms around me. “He won't die. Hayden won't die. He loves you too much to leave you alone like this.”

Yes… He would come back. I had to hope for it.

“Thank you, Livie.” I hugged her back and took a deep calming breath before letting Livie go and turned to look at Mr. Davenport.

“Mr. Davenport, can you tell me the truth behind Mom’s death? What’s the forbidden spell that she used to keep me alive and healthy?” I asked him.

He looked hesitant to answer, but there was no use to keep it a secret anymore.

“Mr. Davenport…” I looked straight into his eyes with certainty. “Dad has passed away and Ethan and I… We deserve to know the truth.”

He looked at Leo and Livie as if unsure if he should say it in front of them.

“They are my best friends. It’s okay for them to know,” I told him.
