Chapter 1079:
She didn’t need to like him to acknowledge his brilliance.
If a man like that were to becmentally impaired... if he lost control over his mind, his life... The idea made
her stomach twist.
Carrie sat on her bed, phone in hand, staring at Kristopher’s non WhatsApp. Her thumb hovered over the
chat. Open. Close. Open. Close. What if he didn’t believe her? What if she warned him—and Aliza found out and
retaliated out of desperation?
Her thoughts spiraled.
She stood up and began pacing her room, phone clutched tightly in her hand, her mind caught in a storm she
couldn't quiet.
When she passed the mirror, she caught sight of herself—and stopped. The worry etched into her face was
unmistakable.
And in that moment, the truth she'd been avoiding slammed into her like a wave. She still had feelings for him.
Carrie shook her head instantly, trying to erase the thought. No. Impossible.
She started rationalizing—if any of the other men in her life were in danger—Daxton, Kyson, Soren, Asher,

But there was one thing she failed to consider: those men had never hurt her. They hadn't betrayed her,
humiliated her, or left her broken like Kristopher had.

enough to force her to confront what she really felt.

Maybe she never truly wanted to face it. What she did know, though, was this—her life now was good. Stable.
Peaceful.
And Kristopher—Kristopher belonged to the past. There was no way to untangle everything that had happened
and start fresh like nothing was broken.
Carrie took a deep breath, forcing herself to clear her head and settle her thoughts.
This wasn’t about holding on. It wasn’t about feelings. It was about doing the right thing—just a matter of
conscience. After all, during her tin Orkset, aside from Gracie, it was Shawn and Melany who had shown her
genuine care. They had always treated her with warmth, like family.
She weighed the risks and reasons quickly in her mind. Then, without overthinking it again, she picked up her
phone and typed a message to Kristopher. “I'll be waiting for you here at 1:00 PM tomorrow.” She attached the
hospital address and hit send.
The choice was his now—whether he showed up or not. She was leaving the rest to fate.
