Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 371

Scarlett's POV:

As the sweet-bitter memories between me and Charles flashed through my mind, I could not help but burst into tears, which blurred my sight.

I didn't know how long I've been drowning in my sorrow. In a trance, I heard Charles' voice, and he seemed to be calling my name.

"Scarlett?"

Was I imagining it?

I curled up on the couch listlessly.

"Scarlett?"

Sensing his voice sounding so close to my ear, I raised my head and saw the eyes of the man I would never forget.

Charles was standing by the door as he took off his coat, put on his slippers, and walked up to me slowly.

I could almost hear my heart pounding, but it made me happy. My heart that was dying until a moment ago felt alive all of a sudden.

Charles walked straight to me and sat down on the sofa from across me.

I stared at him blankly, unable to figure out whether he was really in front of me or if I was just dreaming.

I prayed to God that if I was dreaming, I hope to never wake up from it.

"Scarlett? Why are you looking at me like that?" Charles asked, looking away.

'It's him! It is really him!'

Staggering to my feet, I stumbled over to him, and held his face with my trembling hands.

"Charles, is it really you?"

With a frown, he pulled my hands away and asked, "What do you want?"

The moment I felt Charles' warm touch on my skin, I could not control the emotions surging in my heart. I threw myself into his arms, bursting into tears as I held him tightly.

"Charles, I knew that you were still alive. This is great!"

"Scarlett, calm down."

Charles grabbed my hands and pushed me away with a cold look in his eyes.

I felt a strange sensation in my heart when I saw how indifferent he was towards me now.

"Now sit down calmly so that I can talk to you about the following things."

"The following things?"

I looked at him in a daze and was forced back to my original position.

Staring at my hair, he frowned and asked, "When did you return from France? And why did you cut your hair so short?"

What was he talking about? Why couldn't I understand anything he said?

Feeling a little flustered, I jumped up from the sofa. "Charles, do you know where did you come back from?"

"I had a small accident and I just came back from the hospital. Do you already know about your mother's situation?"

'My mother?' I was more confused.

"Don't worry. I will make sure that she gets treatment from the best doctor in the world. She will certainly recover soon," he comforted me.

All of a sudden, I felt dizzy and couldn't see straight. "My mother has been dead for many years now..."

Charles looked at me in disbelief while I hurriedly called Richard.
