Win My Forsaken Ex-wife Back (Charlotte and Arthur) novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239 Remember What You Said 

Agnes was sobbing uncontrollably, her body shaking as she choked out. “It was all Sophia’s idea! I’ve already been fired! Please, can you let me go? I’m begging you…” 

Charlotte took a deep breath, turning to Jayce. “Let her go.” 

Jayce nodded, but his gaze remained gloomy.

His striking features seemed paler, and the beauty mark beneath his eye took on an eerie, haunting quality. 

Once they were back in the car, shielded from the cold wind, Charlotte felt her limbs gradually warming up. 

She glanced at Jayce and said, “Thank you for standing up for me, but I hope you won’t do something like that again.” 

Jayce asked, confusion shadowing his face, “Why not? When someone hurts you, shouldn’t you retaliate?” 

That was a fair point, but the violence wasn’t the answer. 

Charlotte opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but as she met his clear, questioning gaze, the words fell away. 

She thought, “He did that for me. To criticize him would be a

After a moment’s hesitation, she finally said, “This might make your insomnia worse. It could aggravate your condition.” 

She knew Jayce was dealing with more than just depression. His obsessive tendencies ran deep, revealing a dark side that lurked beneath the surface. 

Just the way he had so calmly wielded that knife was telling,

Edward truly cared for his grandson, and Charlotte respected him. Having promised to help an elderly man in need, she felt it was her duty to try her best. 

Yet, Jayce’s reaction caught her off guard; he suddenly smiled, “You really care about me. That makes me so happy.” 

Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat–something felt off. 

She thought, “Is it really right to interpret it that way?” 

“Mr. Caldwell, you…” 

Jayce interrupted her, sincerity flooding his voice, “I’ll remember what you said. If you don’t want me to do something, I won’t.” 

Charlotte was left speechless.

This definitely wasn’t the direction she’d expected this to take. 

She slowly averted her gaze, realizing that whatever she said now wouldn’t change anything. 

Silence enveloped the car as they drove back, the atmosphere thick with tension, quite the opposite of the trip there. 

Inside, her emotions swirled–fear, shock, and an unexpected heaviness weighed on her. 

When she returned to Starlight Terrace, the familiar sight of a figure in the lobby drew her attention. 

Charlotte hesitated for a moment, a chill of detachment creeping across her face as she recognized the man. 

Arthur strode towards her with purpose, reaching out to touch her pale cheek. “Where have you been? You look awful.”
