Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 115

Scarlett's POV:

"It has already happened. No matter how angry you feel right now, it can't be undone," I said casually with a shrug of my shoulders. In fact, I didn't care about her reaction at all.

"No! Charles only came to you because he was mad at me for sleeping with Richard. Otherwise, he wouldn't even look at you!" Rita shouted.

I was stunned upon hearing that.

"Is that baby actually Richard's, then?" I couldn't help but ask.

"No." Rita denied it at once as though she was trying to cover up her guilt. She looked at me fiercely and added, "Leave Charles alone. He is mine."

"You have already lost Charles, though." I was completely indifferent and unfazed as I told her the truth.

"Don't think that you have a chance with Charles just because he slept with you. He doesn't love you! He loves me, and he's only doing things to get back at me. Once I apologize to him, he is going to come back to me, and you will get kicked out, just like what happened three years ago. You will always be just a substitute, a tool he uses to keep his family calm!" Rita shouted, seeming to be out of control.

She then slammed the door and left with Richard.

The noisy room instantly fell quiet. Sitting on the sofa, I could not help but laugh, thinking of Rita's entanglement with Charles over the past few years.

I never thought that she would sleep with Richard, though. Even Charles had once told me that the child she was carrying was not his. 'Was he telling the truth at that time?'

I thought of what had happened that night, and I realized that Charles had indeed been a little clumsy when he had sex with me.

Feeling that I was making an excuse for Charles, I patted my head to stop thinking of him.

The day after the program, Abner sent me to the airport.

"Be careful, and send me a text once you arrive." Abner seemed to be worried as he reminded me.

"Okay, you should go back now."

After saying goodbye to him, I turned around and left. From the corner of my eye, I saw a familiar figure. I stopped and looked at the man, who was standing not too far away from me, and noticed that he was also looking at me. It was Charles.

We didn't walk towards each other, though. We just stood there, looking at each other through the crowd.

All of a sudden, I noticed that he was about to lift his foot and walk towards me, when the boarding announcement was heard.

I withdrew my sight and prepared to board. When I looked back again, Charles wasn't there anymore. I despised myself, but at the same time, I also felt a little pathetic.

I seemed to be expecting too much of him.

Actually, there was no need for me to feel lost at all.

After getting on the plane, I could not help but recall the three years I had spent abroad, studying. Thinking of that time, I felt that I had been too humble back then. I was tired, and I did not want to be the weak one in our unfair relationship. I didn't want to continue loving him so humbly.

As soon as I arrived at the residence, Nina asked me excitedly, "Did you meet Charles?"

There was a look of curiosity in her eyes.

"I met him at the airport," I answered honestly. However, whenever I mentioned him, my heart ached.

"If you met him at the airport, why did you come back so soon? I thought you would stay there for a few days." Nina frowned in confusion.

"He didn't speak to me, so I also kept silent. We just glanced at each other, and then I boarded the plane." I sighed, feeling exhausted, physically and mentally.

"He didn't ask you to stay? He didn't even talk to you?" Nina's eyes went wide with surprise.

"No, he said nothing." With a bitter smile on my lips, I glanced out of the window with tears in my eyes.

"He came all the way to see you, so I thought he would have a lot to say. I've never seen Charles being such a mess before." Nina sighed with regret.

"After we divorce, I want to have a real romantic relationship!" The bitter smile did not leave my lips as I tried to wipe away my tears.

"Really? Looks like you've finally figured it out. I'll find you a handsome man, don't worry." Feeling happy again, Nina began to browse her contacts for her male friends.

I could not help but feel helpless when I saw her like that, but deep down, I knew that it was probably the right choice to make. I had to divorce Charles, and I could not let him become the center of my universe again.

I was going to start a new life, so it would be helpful for me to have some new friends.

"Don't frown. I will take you to a bar to help you relax a little, okay?" Nina proposed excitedly.

After thinking for a while, I nodded.
