Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 27

Scarlett's POV:

"I can't promise you right now." 'Inviting her fiance's ex-wife to be her bridesmaid? Only Rita could come up with something like that!'

After all, she had always considered me as an obstacle in her relationship with Charles. And she obviously wanted to show off that she was victorious right on the most important day of her life.

My colleagues stepping out of the TV station for their lunch break, saw me talking to Rita, and began whispering among themselves.

"Scarlett seems to know Miss Lively pretty well. Is she familiar with members of such wealthy families?"

"The Riley, Moore, and Lively family had been well-known families in the city for more than decades now. I heard that they were on good terms, but I don't know what happened later. The Riley family declined, and the Moore family adopted a child from the Riley family."

"Scarlett's surname is Riley. Are you saying that she might be the child that the Moore family adopted?"

Several of my colleagues looked at me in shock. They might have guessed what had happened to me over the years, so there was a hint of sympathy in their eyes.

"Scarlett." One of them waved to me.

I walked up to them with the chicken soup in my hand. They pulled me aside and asked, "Scarlett, what's your relationship with that woman?"

"She's just an acquaintance," I answered with a smile.

"She is obviously not a good person. You need to be more careful around her."

"It's alright. She can't do anything to me."

After making sure that I was not in any kind of trouble, my colleagues were relieved and invited me to have lunch. Rita also seemed to be busy, so she nodded and smiled at my colleagues before she left in a hurry.

After work, Spencer appeared at the TV station as usual while I was walking out of the building with Nina, who was my colleague.

Spencer was dressed in a white suit. His handsome face was a sight for sore eyes. He got off the car and walked towards me.

"Spencer, this is Nina. Nina, this is Spencer," I introduced them to each other.

"Hello, Nina." Spencer greeted Nina like a gentleman.

"Hello," Nina also greeted him enthusiastically and then turned to me with a smile. "Scarlett, looks like we have to postpone our plans."

Nina was the host of financial news. Before we got off work, we had planned to have dinner together over a nice chat.

But since Spencer was there, we had to change our plans.

"Alright," I said with a nod.

"Since you two already made plans, why don't we all have dinner together?" Spencer suggested with a smile.

"Would that really be okay?"

"It would be alright." Looking at me, Nina nodded with a smile.

We walked towards Spencer's car, talking and giggling. When I was not expecting it, a white Maybach suddenly came into my view.

Stunned, I realized that it was Charles' car. Seeing that, I immediately help Spencer's arm.

To be honest, I didn't want Charles to be there.

He always came with us whenever I was with Spencer. He probably did not feel relieved until he saw that I was with Spencer. However, he would always have a gloomy look in his eyes when he saw us dating.

Soon, we arrived at the restaurant. And Charles got out of the car with a poker face.

"You are asking me for help, but you don't trust me. Don't you know that your frosty face will only spoil the fun?" Spencer said crossly.

Without saying a word, Charles pushed open the revolving door.

"Charles."
