Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 98

Scarlett's POV:

Ever since that dramatic morning, Grandma had sent a servant to take care of Charles. Hence, I left Charles' house and returned to my normal life.

However, after I was done with my TV program one day, I found a large bouquet of white roses on my work station. Confused, I picked up the card that was inside it, and read Charles' writing, "May the lawsuit be successful."

Startled, I wondered, 'How does he know that I am suing for a divorce? Nina obviously would not have told him, so did I blabber about it in my sleep?'

While I was in a daze, Rita called, and looking at my phone screen, I felt a headache.

"This is Rita." Her voice was domineering.

"What do you want?" I asked coldly.

"I've invited some reporters, and I want you to clarify in front of them that you and Charles have nothing to do with each other."

I could not help but think that she was being ridiculous. After all, Charles and I were still married, so she was in no position to quarrel with me at all.

"Charles doesn't love you anymore, Rita, so wake up, will you?" "Whether he loves me or not is none of your business. You just need to clarify that you have nothing to do with him. Leave Charles to me. I will win him back," Rita said confidently.

I felt sorry for her because she was still lying to herself. Since I could not bear to listen to her nonsensical conversation any longer, I hung up. Once it was time to get off work, I walked out of the company and saw Grandma's driver waiting for me at the entrance. I quickly figured that Grandma must have sent him over to pick me up for dinner.

When I got home, I didn't get off the car immediately. Instead, I turned to the driver and asked, "Is Charles here?"

"I just came to pick you up, following Mrs. Moore's order, so I don't know about other things," the driver replied respectfully.

I pursed my lips. I certainly did not want to see Charles there. Before I was able to figure out how to handle my relationship with him, I would always feel uncomfortable whenever I saw him.

I didn't make things any more difficult for the driver, though. I opened the door and got out of the car. From the corner of my eye, I saw a familiar limousine. It was Nate's. Why was he there? I frowned.

When I walked to the house, I heard someone shouting, and immediately recognized Nate's voice. He was just like his daughter, and they both liked to cause a scene in other people's houses.

"You must give me an explanation today! I was trying to teach Scarlett a lesson as an elder, and now, Charles has asked someone to ruin my business. Is that how he treats his elders?"

I was a little stunned when I heard those words. Did Charles punish Nate for what he did to me? Since Nate was Rita's dad, I thought that Charles would let him go for the sake of his relationship with Rita.

Once I entered the living room, I looked around. Except for Charles, everyone else was present there. All of a sudden, I felt a little indescribable sense of loss in my heart.

Ignoring Nate, Grandma walked to me and greeted me. She grabbed my hand and said with an unhappy look in her eyes, "Scarlett, you are increasingly distancing yourself from me with each passing day. You've even hidden the fact that Nate has bullied you from me."

Although her accusation was a bit severe, I knew that Grandma cared a lot about me. Hence, I coaxed her in a soft voice, "Grandma, I did not want to tell you, because I was afraid that you will worry about me. Besides, I'm doing just fine. I am just surprised to see Mr. Lively here."

"I am only here because of what you and Charles did! I was trying to teach you a lesson, but you turned a molehill into a mountain!" Nate scolded me, pointing at my nose.

"You were trying to teach me a lesson? Can you even dare to tell them about the real reason you hit me?" I retorted coldly, disgusted by how he could shamelessly distort the right and the wrong.

"What? Nate hit you? I thought he was just being mean to you," Grandma said angrily.

"Is it not because of Rita? Or is there some other reason? Why don't you dare to let us know?" Alice stood up in shock. She was also furious when she heard that Nate had hit me.

I looked at Nate coldly and noticed his face turning pale as he panicked.
