Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 210

Scarlett's POV:

After what happened last night, I thought Charles wouldn't want us to get back together anymore. Because I kept refusing him again and again, I assumed that perhaps, he had completely given up on me.

But when I woke up this morning, I saw a bunch of red roses in a vase on the table.

The roses were displayed prominently, looking bright and warm.

"Good morning, Scarlett." Tracy placed breakfast on the table.

I sat down to eat, though I didn't say a word about those roses.

Tracy faked a cough and tried to attract my attention. She asked, "Aren't the roses lovely?"

I threw her an indifferent look and replied on purpose, "Didn't you put them here a few days ago?"

"What? There were no red roses before! Mr. Moore brought them here this morning."

"You don't have to give the credit to Charles, Tracy."

Flabbergasted, Tracy tried to explain the situation to me in a hurry. "You have to believe me, Scarlett! Mr. Moore put the roses in the vase when you were asleep. He went to the rose garden before dawn to pick them, all by himself. If he finds out that you think I'm the one who gave you the roses, he'll fire me..."

I turned to look at the roses, somewhat dazed. Yesterday, Charles told me that I would come to regret my decision one day. Yet today, he sent me roses.

What was he thinking? I couldn't understand him at all.

After I was finished with breakfast, I went to work and arrived at the TV station on time.

The moment I got past the gate, I noticed Lucia walking towards me from afar. Her well-done makeup was stunningly gorgeous, accentuating her beauty.

"Hi, Scarlett!" she greeted me with a wide smile. She suddenly turned around and clung to my arm, as if we were the most intimate of friends. "I really wanted to thank you. Thanks to Charles's sponsorship, I'm back on TV! I'm at the center of attention again!"

"Then you should go thank Charles. You don't need to come to me." I pulled my arm slowly out of her grasp.

"Well, you two are a couple! I thought I should ask for your opinion first before coming to him. You won't misunderstand me, will you? I know that there are rumors about me and Charles in the workplace recently. Some people even said that they saw Charles with me yesterday!" Lucia's face lit up as she spoke. I knew she was doing this on purpose.

At this, I couldn't help but laugh. "He went to the art exhibition with me yesterday. I don't think he had any time to see you."

In that instant, she froze. She quickly changed her expression and gazed at me with a pitiful look. "There's really nothing between Charles and me! He won't come to see me anyway. Trust me, Scarlett. The only reason he agreed to sponsor my program was because he thought I was pitiful."

Lucia's fake airs annoyed me. I didn't say much and left.

I thought that was the end of it. Contrary to my expectations, Lucia appeared in front of me frequently.

Whenever we met, she kept mentioning Charles. She pretended to apologize sincerely to me, but in truth, she wanted to imply to me that she and Charles had a close relationship.

Finally, I reached the limits of patience. I slammed the script on the table and turned coldly to her. "Since you've apologized so many times, I assume this sponsorship must have caused you a lot of trouble. So much, that you feel indebted to us. I have a way to help you solve this little problem of yours for good. Do you want to hear it?"

Lucia's face paled in nervousness. She looked at me warily, and stammered, "What... what?"

I slowly took out my phone and looked up Charles's number in my contacts list. "I'll call Charles right now and ask him to withdraw the sponsorship for your show. Then, you don't have to apologize to me humbly again and again."
