Scarlett's POV:
A few days had passed, and there was still no news about Charles.
Sitting on the sofa dejectedly, I turned around, hugged Tracy, and cried bitterly.
"There, there. Don't cry." Holding me softly, she comforted me.
"Okay." After a while, I sniffled, and wiped away my tears.
I couldn't cry now.
I should cheer up and wait for Charles to come back.
While I was talking to her, I heard my phone ring.
I glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was from William.
After hesitating for a while, I answered the phone.
"Scarlett, are you okay?" I heard his deep voice from the other end of the line, and he seemed to be a bit worried.
"I'm fine," I replied with a faint smile.
"You still have not heard any news about Charles?"
At the mention of Charles' name, I began to cry again.
It had been a long time since the accident, and there was still no news of him.
But for some reason, I firmly believed that he was still alive.
"No news is good news, right? He'll be fine," William comforted me in a low voice.
"He can't die yet! We still have a lot to solve!" I said in a firm voice, gripping my phone in my hand tightly.
"Charles and I also have a lot to sort out," William echoed in a low voice.
Lowering my head, I fell silent.
After all, William had offended Charles many times because of me.
Thinking of the past, I felt pain engulfing my heart.
"Anyway, I am glad to hear that you're doing okay. I was worried that you might become depressed like the last time when Rita hurt James," William said in a low voice after a long moment of silence.
"Thank you for your concern. I can take care of myself." With a grateful smile, I hung up.
That moment, the doorbell rang, and I immediately stood up to open the door.
Janet and Richard were outside the door, holding my kids. They both seemed to be concerned.
My eyes turned red with excitement the moment I saw the kids.
"Janet, Richard! How do you bring the kids back?" "Scarlett, we brought them over to keep you company. They miss you very much." Janet smiled gently as she handed me the baby.
I was moved when I saw how worried they were.
I smiled with satisfaction that night when I saw the kids sound asleep on the bed.
After kissing them on their foreheads gently, I walked out of the room, and locked myself in the study.
Curling up on the sofa, I read the last text that Charles had sent me before the accident. He had mentioned that he wanted to talk to me about something after he returned.
Looking at it, tears streamed down my cheeks.
Hours later, I fell asleep.
I saw Charles motionlessly lying on an iceberg in my dream.
The ice cold wind, and the snow kept raging over his skin, but he did not wake up.
"Charles, wake up! Please wake up..."
I rushed to him and kept calling out to him, but it did nothing at all.
I had dreamed that dream for many nights.
The next day was family gathering day. Michael sent a car to pick us up.
So I took the kids to the Moore mansion.
However, when we arrived there, Chloe blocked me outside.
"You don't have to come in. Just leave the kids." She raised her head, looking at me arrogantly.
"Fine, then. Please tell them that I will pick up the kids tomorrow."
