Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 230

Charles's POV:

After I was done with work, I returned home. On the way, I dropped by the hospital to visit Spencer. As soon as I approached his ward, I could hear a loud argument brewing from inside. "Spencer, this is just an arranged marriage for mutual benefits! After we get married, we can still date whoever we want. When everything's smoothed over, we can get a divorce at any time!" "Arranged marriage? Like I'd buy that. Get the hell out!"

Spencer's voice was laced with irritation, and his anger was evident.

I hesitated, wondering whether I should enter the ward or leave. As I considered my options, a familiar voice called me from behind. "Charles, are you here to visit Spencer? Unfortunately, he's on a blind date now."

I turned around and saw Vivian approaching me, holding a big bag of fruits.

Right at that moment, the door of the ward burst open and a young woman stormed out angrily. She glanced at me, and then at Vivian. Fuming, she yelled at Vivian, "Who the hell is the guy you're trying to pair with me? He's a complete lunatic!"

Vivian looked at the girl and shrugged casually.

"You're right. He really is a lunatic."

Vivian's nonchalant answer startled the young woman, who became speechless. At a loss for words, she simply glared daggers at Vivian before stomping away in anger.

"I guess this isn't the right time for me to visit him. You better go in and comfort him." I shot Vivian a meaningful look. She blinked at me, silent, and pushed the door open.

I didn't leave at once. Instead, I waited outside the ward to see how things would unfold. I mean, how could I miss such a good show?

After Vivian entered, I heard Spencer's angry snarl, "That woman you introduced to me today is crazier than those previous ones! Where have you been? Why did you come back so late?!"

"I just went to buy some fruits."

"Hah?! Why would you go buying fruits whenever those women arrived? What are you trying to do?"

"Well, shouldn't I entertain the guests?"

"Aren't you afraid they'll snap and end up killing me?" Spencer's voice was laden with fury. So angry he sounded, I could even imagine the look on his face when he said that.

"You're in a hospital, and they're all delicate young maidens. What can they possibly do to you? You're just overthinking." Vivian's voice, however, was as calm as ever. She was his stark opposite.

"Bah! They are all for my money!"

"Don't you like any of them? That Lilith girl seems to like you very much. She even praised you when she left just now."

"Quit being so sarcastic. How much did you take from my mother? Whatever the amount, I'll give you double, okay?"

"Not much. She just gave me three thousand dollars, actually."

All the while I listened to their bickering, I was close to splitting my sides from sheer laughter. These two are an entire circus!

"Vivian! Are you telling me that you betrayed me for just three thousand dollars?!"

"Don't be angry. Three thousand dollars is just for introducing girls to you. If you end up dating with any of the girls, your mother will give me an additional thirty thousand dollars." The conversation shifted to the topic of money. Though I couldn't see Vivian's face, from the tone of her voice, I could sense that she was smiling. She sounded exactly like a miser.

"What?!" Spencer's voice instantly grew half an octave higher. His voice was probably louder than an actual loudspeaker.

"If you get married, I'll get three million dollars. If the girl gets pregnant, I'll get thirty million dollars. And if you have a second child..." Vivian giggled, the sound quite sinister. It seemed that she was truly immersed in her dream of being rich.

"Shut up! So all this time, you just take me as a tool to make money! Do I still have human rights to you, Vivian?"

When Spencer mentioned Vivian's name, he specifically deepened his tone to emphasize it. I could guess that he was grinding his teeth in anger.

I never expected the day he would act like this would actually come.

"Ha, ha, ha! Not anymore!"

"Fine! I'll give you three hundred thousand dollars if you drive all those women away."

"No way, that's too little."

"Argh! How much do you want? Do you want me to give you all of my bank cards?! Is that it, Vivian?"

"Oh my god, Spencer! Just eat your oranges!"

Seeing as the two were busy flirting in the ward, albeit in a very amusing manner, I didn't think it was necessary for me to stay anymore.

Vivian was both a stubborn and soft-hearted woman. No doubt, she would take good care of Spencer. Besides, Scarlett was waiting for me at home.

Thinking of her, my heart melted, feeling as sweet as honey. I quickened my pace home, eager to see her as soon as possible.

On my way home, I specifically stopped at Scarlett's favorite cake shop to get the tiramisu I had ordered earlier. While I was waiting for the saleswoman to pack the cake, I received a call from Spencer.

"You jerk! I heard you dropped by to see me! Why didn't you come in the ward?"

"Well, you have a beautiful lady accompanying you. Why do you care if I come in or not?"

"Shut up! That woman's...!"

"Stop. As long as you're happy, you don't need to tell me the details. I'm in a hurry to go home to accompany my lovely wife. You're a bachelor, so you'll never understand." I purposefully said that to make fun of Spencer.

"Humph! That's just temporary!" As I had expected, Spencer blew his top.
