Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 336

Charles' POV:

My heart ached when I saw how determined Scarlett was when she asked for a divorce.

I walked up to her, held her chin, and forced her to look me in the eye.

"Scarlett, do you really want to divorce me?" I grunted.

The thought that she couldn't wait to get away from me only served to sadden me further. I was so dejected over that I could hardly breathe.

Scarlett didn't respond. She just stared at me with a cold gaze.

"I've already told you that I will never divorce you unless I die, Scarlett!" I growled. The way she looked back at me annoyed me. Frustrated, I scoffed at her and forced her to get closer to me.

I would willingly do anything for her aside from getting divorced. Never would I give her an opportunity to leave me!

"Charles, I just want to be away from you! I don't want to have anything to do with you ever again. Besides, you already have Nancy. It's not like you can't live without me. Why can't you just set me free?" Scarlett shook her head bitterly. I could see despair in her eyes.

"Just forget it, Scarlett. I will never agree to a divorce. I won't let you leave me, nor will I let you go back to William!" I warned.

Scarlett struggled to push me away and then she lay on her side with her back to me.

She was starting to get on my nerves, so I left the ward.

Around four in the afternoon, Richard and I had just finished playing tennis.

Just as I was about to take a shower, I received a call from Amy.

"Mr. Moore, during the lunch party this noon, one of the clients offended Nancy and she ended up slapping him across the face."

"Did negotiations fall through?" I asked impatiently.

Nancy was merely a means for me to infuriate Scarlett. Now that Scarlett had returned to me, Nancy was no longer useful.

"Yes, sir. The client left right after," Amy answered.

"Tell Nancy that if she wishes to keep her job, she has to do her duty. And if she wants to quit, then she can fuck off! The company will not tolerate anyone who gets easily offended by the littlest things!" I was already frustrated because Scarlett kept insisting on divorcing me. And finding out that the cooperation was ruined only served to fuel my anger, so I took it all out on Nancy.

Annoyed, I hung up on Amy and walked back to the court.

"Let's keep playing!" I picked up my racket and vented all my frustrations and anger by playing tennis.

I didn't stop until Richard raised his arms in surrender and tried hard to catch his breath.

But even until now, I was still too upset.

Now that we were done playing, I grabbed a towel and wiped away my sweat. Afterwards, I took a quick shower and drove to the bar.

Perhaps right now, only alcohol could make me temporarily forget my pain and ease my boredom.

Scarlett's POV:

As I lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, I recalled Charles' warning and felt desperate.

It would appear that he had no intention of letting me go. Thus, I must figure out another way to escape.

The moment Janet knocked on the door and came in, a glimmer of hope sparked in my heart. "Janet, how did you scale the wall in Kitsap last time?"

"Scarlett, are you still plotting to escape?" Janet asked directly.

But I didn't answer the question, fearing that she'd tell Charles about it.
