"You promised Hailey Hill a child, you broke your promise. You used to say you liked me, but you never were honest with me. You thought everything could go the way you wanted, but Atlas Hallow, where in the world is such good fortune?"

The clever light in her eyes concealed the repression and pain in her heart as she continued, "So, she died, and I've left. Do you still want to entangle me now?"
Charlotte Miller approached him step by step, her words felt like sharp knives to Atlas Hallow, cutting through the air.
Yet he didn't have the slightest ability to resist, willingly facing her blade, letting it cut him open, as if by doing so she would be able to see into his heart.
