The Moment i let go my uncle 15

Chapter 15 

Yes, I’m with him,Charlotte said, her voice as cool and detached as if she were discussing the weather forecast. Is that a problem?” 

Elias’s face tightened, his military bearing reasserting itself as he grasped for control of a situation rapidly slipping through his fingers. I can’t let you do this, Charlotte. Do you even know what kind of man Isaac Wood is?” 

He gestured dismissively toward Isaac. He’s had a different girlfriend every month since prep school. Men like him don’t do commitmentthey play with people until something shinier comes along.” 

Charlotte’s lips curved into a bitter smile. You’re right. I don’t know what kind of man he 

is.” 

She took a deliberate step closer to Elias, her eyes never leaving his face. But I know 

exactly what kind of man you are.” 

The quiet intensity of her voice made several nearby children stop their play and stare

Would you like me to list everything you’ve done to me?she continued, her voice steady 

and emotionless. Or should we skip straight to the part where you forced me to donate a kidney without anesthesia to a woman who was manipulating you?” 

She shook her head slightly. Besides, who I’m with is no longer any of your concern. We 

severed ties, remember? You signed the papers yourself.” 

Her voice hardened. Please go back wherever you came from. You’re not welcome here.” 

There was no anger in her tone that would have required emotional investment she no longer had for him. There was only the calm finality of someone who had closed a door and had no intention of ever opening it again

Elias looked as though she’d physically struck him. Charlotteyou’re saying these things because of him? I’m only trying to protect you. I would never hurt you.” 

The absurdity of his statement made Charlotte laugha sharp, humorless sound

You wouldn’t hurt me? That’s rich.She didn’t raise her voice, didn’t need to. You let me 

undergo major surgery without anesthesia for your precious Scarlett. You slapped me. You accused me of theft. You exposed my private letters to humiliate me.” 

She stepped back, putting distance between them. If that’s your idea of protection, I’ll pass

Your concern comes about five years and one kidney too late.” 

Without another glance at Elias, Charlotte took Isaac’s hand and walked away, leaving Elias 

standing alone in the schoolyard, stunned and hollow

He had traveled thousands of miles, gone without sleep for over twentyfour hours

endured bonejarring roads and sweltering heatall to find Charlotte. Instead, he’d 

discovered she was with another man. The revelation felt like a physical blow, knocking the air from his lungs

Once they were out of earshot, Isaac turned to Charlotte, his expression troubled

I’m sorry,he said quickly. I shouldn’t have said those things back there. I just couldn’t 

stand the way he was looking at you, like he still had some claim on you.” 

Charlotte cut him off with a gentle squeeze of his hand. Don’t apologize. I know you were trying to help.” 

Actually, I should thank you for standing up for me.” 

Isaac’s eyes brightened with surprise. Really?” 

Charlotte nodded, and Isaac ran a hand through his hair, suddenly nervous

About what he saidit’s not true. Since I fell for you, I haven’t dated anyone else. Not a single person.” 

He looked at her earnestly. My feelings for you are real. And I’m not the spoiled trust fund kid everyone thinks I am. I’ve built my own business, separate from my family’s money.” 

Charlotte stepped closer to him, a genuine smile softening her features. I know.” 

Isaac’s face flushed, and he stumbled over his words. Sowould you consider giving me a chance? To show you how I feel? For real, I meannot just pretending to keep Delaney away.”

Charlotte glanced back over her shoulder, then turned to him with a radiant smile that had 

never once appeared during her years with Elias. If I hadn’t already given you a chance, what do you think we’ve been doing all this time?” 

Isaac’s ears turned bright red, his face lighting up with joy. Charlotte Whitmore, someday you’re going to be my girlfriend for real. I promise you that.” 

A few evenings later, Isaac led Charlotte through the village with mysterious excitement, refusing to tell her where they were going

Seriously, Isaac,she protested as they reached an open field at the edge of the village. It’s 

late, and I have an early class tomorrow. What are we doing out here?” 

Before he could answer, a sharp crackling sound split the night air. Charlotte looked up just 

as the first fireworks exploded overhead, painting the African sky with brilliant colors

She stood transfixed, momentarily speechless at the unexpected display

As she watched the light show, Isaac reached into his pocket and pulled out something that 

caught the reflected glow of the fireworksa pendant on a silver chain

Charlotte’s breath caught. It was her St. Michael’s pendantthe one Scarlett had deliberately brokennow completely restored to its original condition. The silver oval gleamed as if new, the blue glass center repaired so perfectly it was impossible to tell it had 

ever been damaged

For a moment, it was as if the pendant had never been broken, as if her parents had never 

left her

Tears welled in Charlotte’s eyes. She’d mentioned the pendant only once in passing, yet Isaac had not only remembered but had somehow found a way to repair it

Isaac’s hands trembled slightly as he held it out to her. Charlotte, my entire life has been planned out by my parents. Every school, every internship, every career moveall of it 

decided for me.” 

He took a deep breath. Falling for you is the first decision I’ve ever made completely on my 

own.” 

The fireworks continued to burst overhead, illuminating his earnest expression

I had the pendant restored because I wanted to show you that your parents are still with you in ways you can’t see.” 

He stepped closer. And I was wonderingwould you let me be the third person in your life. who promises to protect you? Not because you need protection, but because you deserve to 

be cherished.” 

His voice grew more confident. Charlotte Whitmore, will you be my girlfriend? For real 

this time?”
