The Day Our Promise Breaks (Charles and Evelyn) novel Chapter 675

She was now the second Chinese designer, after her mentor Taylor, to win the “Crown Jewel” of the design world—a triumph that wasn’t just hers alone, but another shining moment for Taylor and the entire Korbin team.

It meant everything.

Spotlights followed her as she stepped forward. Evelyn gave a small, graceful bow, took a steadying breath, and, with a confident smile, began her walk toward the stage and the honor that awaited her.

She had no idea that at the very peak of her career, she was about to receive a gift even more precious than the Golden Matrix trophy—one that would make her heart soar.

The emcee regarded Evelyn with a knowing smile, his voice warm and inviting. “Congratulations to our champion!”

“Ms. Evelyn’s work didn’t just wow the judges—it moved every single one of us.”

“And today, we have a very special, very adorable little guest, who just can’t wait to present this trophy herself to the most wonderful, incredible person in her world.”

Evelyn’s heart suddenly beat faster. She couldn’t help but scan the audience, searching for that familiar little face.

Could it be Charlie?

Before she could finish the thought, the host’s voice rang out again, “Let’s welcome Ms. Evelyn’s dearest treasure—her daughter, little Charlie—to present the award!”

The emcee’s excitement was contagious.

Realizing it really was Charlie, Evelyn’s heart hammered in her chest, almost leaping out.

She followed the emcee’s gaze to the side entrance of the stage.

The curtain was gently pulled back by a large, well-defined hand.

A tall, striking figure came into view—Charles.

Evelyn’s eyes barely lingered on him before focusing entirely on the little girl by his side.

Charlie wore a beautiful princess dress, her hair braided neatly, the stage lights making her look almost magical. Her face was a mix of nerves and excitement, but she stood tall and proud.
