Chapter 89 I Promise I Will Cherish Her

••• Charlotte’s POV •••

I was stunned by Dad’s out-of-nowhere question. Were we not talking about Hayden? How did it become about me out of a sudden?

“Are you still in love with him, Lottie?” Dad repeated his question.

“Ummm... I truly don't know, Dad. I thought I didn't love him anymore after how much he had hurt me when we were mated, or after we broke our matebond, but...”

But why did my heart skip a beat when he saved me, and when I knew that he had forsaken his sleep to stay by my side while I was unconscious and cared for me? And when he told me that he was jealous if I had accepted Theo as my mate...

I wished Lexi was still here. She’d know how I truly felt and could give me some guidance.

Dad sighed and patted my hand, “Take your time to think about it seriously, Lottie. It would be best if you could follow what your heart wants.”

“Okay,” I nodded weakly.
