Charles' POV:
After seeing Simon and Caroline leave together, I could not help but rush to follow them.
Caroline's car stopped in front of her house, and instead of leaving, Simon walked into her house with her.
I suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
My heart twisted and ached at the possibility of her falling in love with another man.
Caroline was mine.
And she could not be anyone else's!
I was determined to never let Simon have her.
I ran to her door and knocked.
Soon, Elena opened the door.
Surprised, she looked at me and asked, "Mr. Moore, what are you doing here?"
"I came to see Caroline," I answered bluntly.
"But Miss Wilson doesn't want to see you, so please leave! She is not the person you are looking for, and I hope that you will stop troubling her," Elena warned coldly before she shut the door on my face.
Looking at the closed door, I lowered my eyes in disappointment.
After standing there for a long time, I walked back to the car and lit a cigarette.
As the cigarette smoke pervaded, I frowned, lost in thought.
If Simon could get into her house, why couldn't I?
Could it be that Simon was more important in Caroline's heart than I was?
Was she really moving farther and farther away from me?
Feeling the unbearable pain in my heart, I could not breathe.
Clenching my fists, I punched the steering wheel to vent my anger.
Soon, the sky turned dark and the moon rose. I put out the cigarette and got off the car.
It had been a while since Simon walked into her villa, and he still hadn't come out.
Staring at Caroline's bedroom window, I was unwilling to leave.
After a long time, I saw the lights in her room turn on.
However, Simon still was in the villa.
Was he in Caroline's room now?
What were they doing?
Overwhelmed by such questions, I felt like I was suffocating.
I wanted to knock on her door again, but I was afraid that I might annoy her, so I decided to continue waiting outside.
The sky roared loudly, followed by a bright flash of lightning, indicating that a violent storm was coming.
Soon, the rain began pouring down, and the loud clashes of thunder pierced my ears.
Within seconds, my whole body was soaked, and I could not help but shudder from the coldness.
I raised my head and stared at Caroline's bedroom without blinking. All I could think about was the sweet and loving memories that we had. Yes, I had recently started to remember things from our past.
She would be so shy and blush whenever I flirted with her, and she would obediently nestle in my arms, letting me kiss her. She had tolerated everything that I had done to her.
Thinking of our past, I couldn't help but burst into tears.
Under the pouring rain, my tears were indistinguishable.
Relief flooded my heart.
As soon as I got home, I called Edward.
"Simon, how does Caroline feel about you? And how is your relationship going?" There was concern in his voice.
" She is nice to me, but we are just friends for now," I replied in a voice that was filled with regret.
"Caroline is a late-bloomer, but don't worry too much, and take things slow," Edward comforted me.
"Yes, I understand."
"I am looking forward to hearing some good news from you two!"
"I'm looking forward to it, too. When are you coming back, Mr. Wilson?"
"About two weeks later. I will be back on Caroline's birthday. What's your plan?" Edward teased.
"I'm planning a surprise for her, and I hope she will like it."
"What is it?" Edward asked curiously.
"You will find out when the time comes."
After hanging up, I turned on my laptop and began to browse the Internet for gifts that Caroline might like.
Although she seemed to be a gentle person, she was more stubborn than anyone I'd ever met.
Ordinary gifts wouldn't make the cut if I wanted to impress her.
My hands stopped moving when my gaze fell on a photo.
It was a photo of Edward, and Eason Felix, my dad.
They were standing beside each other with a bright smile.
