A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 437

What if he really hurt Macey because of this?!

Charles didn’t dare to think about it. He was scared, the world was filled with lies and the person who lied to him was his father whom he respected. How could this be?

Charles walked as fast as he could and got to the wardroom.

Nora was still hospitalized. She saw Charles rushing back and noticed that he looked off, “What’s wrong?”

“Boss, please forget about your revenge towards the Hunter family!” said Charles calmly.

“What do you mean?” Nora was puzzled, “Do you not remember what Brian did to your father?”

“He never did anything to my father. It was you and my father who did something to him, right?!”

Charles felt frustrated. He thought about that day when Macey was asking him about something in the corridor. She asked him if he had even the slightest feeling towards her. At that time, he answered so heartlessly. He remembered that she had tears in her eyes when she left. Her eyes so bright they blinded his eyes. Her tears were like pins, pinning on his heart and whenever his heart was beating, it would hurt.

That day, he unconsciously walked behind her. When he saw her tears, he felt suffocated and then he turned around.

He thought her eyes would be filled with hatred, but no. He would rather she screamed and yelled at him. He could live through a lot of things, but he realized that he was most afraid of silent and non-hateful accusation.

At this moment, his heart was filled with regret.

“Charles, what are you saying? Are you going crazy?” Nora looked at him in disbelief.

“I’m not crazy, you guys are the crazy ones, both you and my father. Boss, I respected you. You saved my life when I was in pit bottom. I owe you my life. But even so, I won’t help you anymore!” Charles sighed, “Sorry!”

“Charles, what are you saying?” Nora could not understand the situation.

Charles sighed again, “Boss, my father wanted revenge. What Brain did to him back then was fair, he did not give him a promotion because it did not make sense at that time. But my father hated Brian for many years because of that, he searched for the opportunity and made fake evidence to trick you into helping him! The talk about the document that was held back was groundless. It might be an accident, not something on purpose, but my father twisted the fact and blamed it on Brian. He just wanted Brian to lose everything! That’s why he went up to you and Vincent.”

“My father was a narrow-minded man, it made sense that he didn’t get a promotion. A leader should be someone like Brian, only a mindful man could be a leader.”

“Did Brian drug you? Why are you slandering your father like this?” Nora was puzzled.

“He didn’t drug me! Boss, I really wronged Macey. It was my fault. Please stop your revenge, I cannot let you continue doing wrong. Are you really happy to hurt others?”

“Get out!” Nora closed her eyes; her heart was starting to hurt again.

“Stop it! My father used me as his pawn, and you are also using your son as your pawn! Don’t you think that you are cruel, and that Brian is innocent?”

“I didn’t do anything cruel, Brian deserved it. He hurt Eric!”

“I told you that it was a misunderstanding! Nobody suppressed any documents; it was all revenge from your side. You know best why you are taking revenge on Brian! Boss, I respect you, but I cannot let you do as please anymore after knowing the truth!”

“Nonsense! Charles, I already told you that I wouldn’t let him go…”

“You are too selfish! You hurt your son and innocent people just for your selfish will. Boss, I thought you weren’t that kind of person, but I was wrong! Since Brian was not the one who hurt Eric and my father, there’s no need for me to keep my promise!” said Charles as he turned around and walked towards the entrance.

“What are you doing?! Charles…” Nora was trembling in rage, she yelled loudly.

“I won’t hurt the Hunter family anymore. I will help them when necessary, and I will announce to the public that the video of Macey and me is accidentally leaked. I need to restore her name, otherwise, I will hate myself for the rest of my life. Boss, just go for it if you still want revenge, but I will not let you hurt them. Also, don’t wait until it’s too late and make your son hates you…” said Charles. He left the ward and slammed the door so hard, and Nora was startled.

She did not think that Charles would go against her wishes because of the Hunter family. She was breathing heavily, and it tensed up her heart. The monitor’s alarm went off.

Coincidentally, a nurse came into the room. She quickly rushed up to the bed seeing the patient like that, “Madam? Madam, are you okay? Someone, come! Get the doctor…”

In the next two days, Charles was looking for Macey.

He came to Brian’s ward and asked about Macey’s whereabout. Macey didn’t come by in the past two days. Her phone was unreachable, and he couldn’t find her.

He was preparing to do a press conference. He wanted to announce the fact about that video. He wanted to fix his mistakes and he hoped he could still make it.

At the press conference.

Charles stood behind a desk and there were a bunch of microphones and cameras in front of him. He looked gloomy.

“I’m here today to clarify something. It’s about the video about me and my girlfriend, Miss Macey Hunter. I believe that it had been circulated for the past few days and most of you had seen it. The male in the video is me. My computer was hacked, and the video got leaked. Because of this, my girlfriend was hurt. I sincerely apologize and am sorry for what happened. Today, I just wanted to say, Macey, I’m sorry. And let’s get married.”

Everyone started clapping merrily.

Macey was sitting in front of the television. She cried seeing it on television.

Arthur sat down next to her, “Are you touched?”

“Do you believe that?” Macey laughed.

“Are you not disillusioned anymore?”
