Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 416

Scarlett's POV:

I went back to work after the lunch break.

I was relieved to know that the ecological park project on the west coast was finally being carried out in an orderly way.

While I was reading some documents, my phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Nina.

I picked up my phone and answered the call at once. "Hello?"

"Caroline, it's been a long time since you came back. Don't you have any plans to meet your best friend?" Nina jokingly asked.

I could not help but chuckle at her clinginess. To be honest, I wanted to see her too, so I immediately agreed to have dinner with her.

"Of course."

After work, I asked Elena to drive me to a fancy restaurant that had a view overlooking the sea.

When I arrived at our meeting place, Nina was already there. She waved excitedly upon seeing me.

"Caroline, here!"

With a smile, I walked over to her and sat in front of her.

"Nina, long time no see." "So you knew all along that it had been a long time since we had last seen each other? Did you know how sad I was when I found out you had come back, but I couldn't come to see you?" Nina complained with a pout.

"I'm sorry. It's all my fault," I apologized sincerely.

"Oh, come on! I was just kidding!" Nina held my hand and comforted me. "I understand that you've been going through a lot. Honestly, I feel sorry for you. You don't deserve to suffer."

I waved my hand in dismissal and let out a snort. "It's okay. Let bygones be bygones."

While we were having dinner, Nina turned to me and joked, "Did Charles pester you after you returned? Judging from his personality, I don't think he'll give up easily."

"I've divorced him. It's impossible for us to be together again. Besides, what he's done is unforgivable," I reminded Nina with a sneer tugging at the corners of my mouth.

Nina shook her head helplessly and changed the topic. "Enough about Charles. Do you have any new admirer? I won't be surprised if you have. You're intelligent, beautiful, and charming. I'm sure many men are chasing you."

Simon's face flashed through my mind. I sighed at the thought of him.

"Well, my father set me up with a guy. But the thing is, all I want is to get custody of my children. How am I supposed to have time to think about anything else?"

A sense of powerlessness washed over me as I thought of my kids.

The Moore family would not just give my children back to me, even though I was their mother. I could not even see them. Getting full custody of my children wouldn't be an easy feat. Nina looked at me with concern. "Caroline, you can fight for their custody and start a new life at the same time."

I sighed. "Can we talk about that some other time?"

Nina shrugged. "If you say so. By the way, your birthday is coming. What do you plan on your birthday?"

"I haven't planned anything. But don't worry. I'll definitely invite you if I throw a party," I replied with a smile.

After dinner, Nina and I walked out of the restaurant side by side.

While we were walking in the street, she suddenly gasped in surprise and pulled me to the side.

"What's the matter?" I asked confusedly.

Nina pursed her lips and pointed at something not far away.

I looked in the direction where she was pointing and saw Adam and Susan passing by.

Susan was holding Adam's arm, and her head was resting on his shoulder. They looked like a couple.

I frowned as I stared at their receding figures.

"Since when did Susan and your uncle start hooking up with each other? Be careful. They're not good people," Nina cautioned.

"Don't worry. They can't stir up trouble anymore," I reassured her. But in all honesty, my instincts

told me that they were up to something. I would be watching them.

William's POV:

Scarlett's reminder felt like a thorn in my heart.

Because of this, I contacted a private detective to look for the woman she was talking about.

At last, I received a call from the private detective today. Apparently, he had found Sofia Byrne and gotten her phone number.
