Charles' POV:
I left the hospital with a heavy heart.
I just didn't want Spencer to make the same mistakes I did.
'He and Vivian love each other with all their hearts. Why is he pushing her away?'
Back then, if I hadn't hurt Scarlett deeply, she would've been willing to give me a chance to atone for my sins now.
Annoyed, I loosened my tie and drove back to the company.
Upon my arrival, Amy handed me some documents about the Ecological Park project on the west coast.
"Mr. Moore, this project has been shelved for three years, and it has only recently been restarted. This is Miss Wilson's first official project after returning home."
"I want a stake in this project. Oh, but... make sure not to put down an investment under my name. File it with another person's name," I commanded.
Despite my reluctance to admit it, Scarlett clearly didn't want to have anything to do with me.
If she were to find out that I got involved in this project, she'd surely be furious.
I pursed my lips, feeling only bitterness.
"Got it, sir. I'll do that right away." Amy nodded in response, and then she went to the door.
"Amy, hold on," I said.
She paused, looking back at me.
"I've asked you to send Miss Wilson the evening gown and the pictures of the kids a few days ago. Have you sent them already?" I asked with a frown.
"Yes, sir. But Miss Wilson has yet to respond," Amy answered cautiously.
Upon hearing that, I felt lost and powerless.
"Sir, there are only three days left until the auction. Would you like me to find you another companion for the evening?" asked Amy.
"That's not necessary. You can go back to work now," I said, still frowning.
Silence ensued in my office again. I took a deep breath and lit up a cigarette.
The white smoke spread out, blurring my vision. All of a sudden, I saw Scarlett's indifferent face in front of my eyes.
Gradually, my eyes turned red.
'Scarlett, what on earth must I do to gain your forgiveness?'
It took me a while, but I finally managed to put those thoughts aside and pick up the phone to call Richard.
"Richard, have you found Boris' whereabouts?" I asked him.
"Not yet. It seems like he's disappeared from the face of the earth." It kind of sounded like Richard was annoyed.
"There's something fishy about that guy. Otherwise, why would he suddenly disappear? Keep looking for him, Richard. No matter where the bastard hides, find him!" I ordered sternly.
After hanging up the phone, my head started to ache again.
I tried to recall the details of the day Scarlett disappeared from the hospital. Something must've happened on that day.
The memories of the day were like scattered fragments in my mind. When I tried to capture them, they disappeared without a trace.
And the more I tried to recall it, the more my head felt like it was about to explode.
Chloe's POV:
Once Charles had left, I called Raina immediately.
"Raina, Charles has left. You can come over now."
After the phone call, I spoke to my mother.
