Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 144

Rita's POV:

When I saw Scarlett rush to the bathroom, covering her mouth with her hand, I immediately figured out that she was having morning sickness. But I couldn't help feeling a little resentful.

While I was still in a daze, Richard walked to me with a cup of coffee.

"What's the matter with you?" he asked with concern.

"Scarlett's belly is getting bigger and bigger," I muttered, looking in the direction of the restroom. "We have known that she is pregnant, didn't we?" "She just returned. How could she be pregnant?" I asked, looking at Richard discontentedly.

"It's normal for a married woman to get pregnant," he said calmly.

I didn't want to talk to him anymore. I couldn't help but make blind and disorderly conjectures.

"Did Charles end up compromising with her because she's pregnant?" I asked in surprise. The more I thought about it, the more it made me feel like I was finally catching onto the truth.

Richard looked at me indifferently and frowned. It seemed like he wanted to say something, but he stopped on second thought.

I cast a cold glance at him before I continued, "Yes, Scarlett must have forced Charles using her pregnancy. If that was not the case, then Charles won't treat me so coldly all of a sudden or yell at me. When did Scarlett get pregnant, though?"

"It's none of your business," Richard interrupted. "You know nothing! And I can't let Scarlett give birth to the baby. She was lucky that I was not able to push her down the stairs with me last time," I said through gritted teeth, looking at him. "Stop acting so recklessly," Richard said with a frown.

"Scarlett is not qualified to give birth to Charles ' child! She doesn't deserve to be with him." Saying that with a sarcastic smile, I looked at him with emotional eyes.

"Scarlett is Charles' wife. Who are you?" Richard reminded me, casting a firm glance at me.

"Charles hired a bodyguard for me. So I am obviously special to him." I gave him a cold glare.

"Charles has long known that we had sex, and he fired me right after he found out about it." Richard gave me a meaningful look and sighed.

"That's impossible! I am sure that Charles must still be paying you. He cares about me, and that's why he's still hiring you." I looked at Richard in disbelief.

Taking a deep breath, Richard said, "You'd better not hurt Scarlett. I'm leaving."

"You are just a coward. Go quickly, and don't get in my way." I looked at him coldly, unwilling to continue the conversation with him.

Richard frowned at me for a moment before he sighed, turned around, and left.

I was so busy thinking of my next move that I completely ignored him.

I spent the rest of the day wondering how I was going to make Scarlett show her true colors and make Charles come back to me.

After coming up with several plans, I decided to make Richard cooperate with me. However, he was gone, and I couldn't get through to him at all, which left me feeling irritable.

Suddenly, I heard Nate's voice. "Did you go to see Scarlett today?"

"What? Are you worried that I might hurt her?" I asked him in a sarcastic tone.

"You have misunderstood me. There is nothing going on between us. You'd better not provoke her, or Charles won't let it slide so easily," he explained with a frown.

"You are really incompetent, and I am sure that was the reason your business was screwed up by Charles." I looked at him with a sneer.

"You..." Nate was too furious to even say anything.

"I don't understand why I believed that Scarlett was the one who seduced you at that time. She's right. She is not the type to fall in love with someone like you unless she's blind. How can you be so shameless? You're so old now. How can you still want to have a mistress? Perhaps, your love for her is one-sided."
