Delete My Love for You novel Chapter 275

A flicker of emotion crossed Charlotte’s eyes.

She raised her hand and—gently pushed his face away.

“You should go back.”

Darren didn’t get angry at being pushed aside. Instead, his smile faded, his expression growing earnest and intense.

“If this trial works—if I make it through… do I still have a chance? Could you ever look back at me?”

His gaze locked onto hers, searching for the smallest shift in her expression.

Charlotte didn’t answer right away.

Her hand, resting on her knee, unconsciously brushed against the folded drawing hidden in her pocket. The stiff edge pressed against her fingertips.

After a long pause, she finally turned her head, eyes meeting Darren’s.

“Darren, right now we’re talking about your life. Surviving comes first.”

She didn’t answer his question, and she certainly didn’t make any promises.

But those two words—“surviving comes first”—sent a ripple through Darren.

She wanted him to live.

Maybe it was for the sake of the trial, maybe for something else. At least, she wasn’t shutting him out with cold, cutting words like she used to.

For him, that hope was a sliver of light in the dark.

A small smile tugged at Darren’s lips. “If you want me to live, Charlotte, I’ll give it everything I’ve got…”

“It’s late.”

Charlotte cut him off. “You need rest. You have to be in top shape before the experiment.”

He knew she was asking him to leave, but Darren’s mood couldn’t be dampened.

“I know. You should get some rest too.”

He stood, and as he reached the door, he couldn’t help but pause. He turned back for one last look.

Charlotte wasn’t looking at him anymore. Under the light, her profile looked tired.
