Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 296

Charles's POV:

In the private room, I picked up my glass and smiled at William sardonically.

"Just say it."

"Relax. Why are you in such a hurry? Anyway, I have something to show you." William unhurriedly fished out his phone from his pocket with his slender fingers and added, "It's time to put an end to your delusion."

An end?

What did he mean by that?

Perplexed, I looked into William's eyes for a moment and then grabbed his phone.

A photo of two newborn babies was displayed on the screen. They were sleeping peacefully, and their tiny bodies were snuggling up to each other. Because of the camera angle, their red lips and rosy cheeks looked a hundred times more charming.

"These twins are my children with Scarlett. They're adorable, aren't they?"

William's words struck me like thunder.

"What did you say?" I asked, flabbergasted.

"Scarlett lost her memory and is regarding me as her husband. And as you can see, we have children now, so..." William looked straight into my eyes and continued, "Divorce her."

My mind went blank. When William said the last sentence, I felt as though a thousand arrows pierced through my heart all at once.

Truth be told, I had mentally prepared myself when I entered the room and saw the ring on William's finger. However, I did not expect that the reality was far crueler than I had imagined.

"I want to see her," I replied.

That was all I wanted right now and the only thought I had in mind.

William frowned in disapproval. "Again, Scarlett lost her memory. She can't even remember her name. What's the point of seeing her?"

"William, do you know the saying 'seeing is believing'?" I asked with a sneer.

What a joke! How could I believe this bastard? Scarlett loved me with all her heart. How could she forget about me and have children with another man just like that?

"I'm afraid you can't see her. She has just given birth, so she's still very weak. I will take her out once she recovers, but I want you out of her sight."

William spoke so resolutely as if there was no way his words could be bent.

I clenched the glass in my hand in anger and frustration.

"The doctor said that Scarlett has selective amnesia because of a traumatic event that happened to her. She didn't want to remember the past. Needless to say, she doesn't remember you, the whole Moore family, and even James's death. Charles, don't you understand? You will only bring her pain and despair."

William's words brought an excruciating pain all over my body.

"Charles, that's all I want to say. I hope you keep your promise. Don't disturb her life. Please set her free. That will be a relief for the three of us." William drank up the wine in his glass and then stood up to bid farewell.

"I've gotta go. Scarlett doesn't know I've gone to meet you. She thinks that it's just an ordinary dinner party, and she advised me not to drink too much."

After saying that, he took out his phone and showed me her message.

After William left, a deafening silence fell in the room. The message I had just seen kept flashing through my mind.

I was heartbroken that I could hardly breathe.

Scarlett used to tell me not to drink too much. Sadly, her tenderness and concern now belonged to another man.

All of a sudden, I tasted blood in my throat. I clenched my glass tighter and tried hard to suppress the discomfort in my stomach.

I wanted to drown myself in alcohol to ease the pain. But when I raised my glass to my mouth, I suddenly collapsed. My stomach churned as guilt and regret swept over me.

I put down the glass and ran out of the private room. But just after taking a few steps, my vision began to blur, and I coughed up blood. The next thing I knew, I had fallen to the cold, hard floor. For a moment, I felt as if I had traveled through time. I saw two helpless figures in front of me. One was covered in blood, and I could only watch as the other fell into the sea.

They were my wife and son.

If only I did not hold back and killed Rita, would things end up differently? Would my Scarlett and James be saved?

With that, everything turned black.

******

I awoke the next day.

I looked around to see where I was and realized that I was lying in the hospital.

A storm was brewing, and the strong wind was blowing violently outside the window. A few moments later, heavy rain poured down.
