Farewell To My Endless Love

Charles's POV:

Holding Caroline's hand, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. This was the first time I had felt so content and happy after a long time.

How I wished we could always be like this.

The room quieted down after a long while.

It did not take long before I started drifting off to sleep.

All of a sudden, I felt someone's hand on my forehead.

I opened my eyes and met James's bright and clear eyes.

He withdrew his hand and whispered in my ear, "Dad, your forehead isn't hot anymore. Your fever has dissipated."

I smiled at him. Just as I was about to say something, he put his index finger on his lips.

"Shh. Mom is asleep. I'll go home with Tracy now. Dad, behave well in front of Mom."

A smile tugged at my lips, and I nodded at my son in response.

Without another word, James opened the door and said a few words to Tracy, who was standing by the door.

Then, she looked at me, awaiting my order.

I nodded in approval, and she left the room with

James.

Only two people were left in the ward-Caroline and me.

She was lying on the edge of the bed with her head resting on her arm.

She was a mother of three. And yet, time did not leave any trace on her body. She was as beautiful as the day I lost her. Perhaps even more. Her pearly white skin and pretty face were like a rose blossom. Even if she was just sleeping, her angelic face melted my heart.

"I'm sorry, Scarlett," I blurted out. Upon realizing what I had just said, a wave of panic washed over me.

It was not until I made sure that she was fast asleep that I felt relieved.

I could not help but laugh at myself for being too cautious.

At this moment, I gazed at her sleeping face and whispered, "I know. I shouldn't have been so possessive. It's just that I couldn't control my emotions. I get so jealous when I see you with another man." As I spoke, I stroked her hand that was holding mine.

"Do you really have no feelings for me? Please forgive me. Come back to me, okay?"

Caroline did not respond, and her eyes remained closed.

Her long eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her face.

Suddenly, I felt an urge to reach out and caress her face.

How I wished I could recall every second we shared together and see what she had gone through.

"I still wonder why you left the hospital without saying goodbye and then asked for a divorce a year ago," I uttered with a heavy sigh.

My heart ached as I reminisced the past

"Actually, you don't have to tell me your reason for doing that. Just come back to me. Please. You're the only one that I want."

I gazed at the woman in front of me with love and affection. Then, with a faint smile, I kissed her gently on the forehead.

This time, I held her hand tighter. I swear to God I would never let her go again.

Kama's POV:

It was pouring outside the window.

But despite the heavy rain, I drove into the racecourse.

When I arrived at the meeting place, I saw Susan and Adam on the sofa making out.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

A wave of nausea hit me, and I almost vomited in disgust.

When my mother said she was "living in pain", did she mean this?

How could that be? On the contrary, she looked very happy.

When my mother spotted me, she jumped out of Adam's arms and straightened her wrinkled clothes.

Then, she awkwardly cleared her throat and greeted me with a smile. "Raina, you're here."

I paid no attention to her pleasantries and just sat down opposite them.

How ironic.

Gary raped me in exchange for the Hill family's protection over me.

On the other hand, my mother slept with Adam in exchange for his help and power.

Did being pathetic run in the blood? Both my mother and I were being trampled on by vile men. What a shame.

Something caught Susan's eye, and her expression changed in the blink of an eye. With a frown, she strode toward me and forcefully ripped open my collar. "What's this?"

I swatted her hand in disgust and fixed my collar to cover the hickeys on my neck. These were the marks Gary had left when he assaulted me.

"Raina, tell me the truth. What the hellhappened?" Susan demanded.

I looked into her eyes hesitantly. Because I still needed her help, I decided to tell her what Gary had done to me.

Susan was enraged when she heard the truth.

"Isn't Gary afraid that his wife will find out about this?"

I shook my head in response. "Gary

has multiple mistresses. His wife, Sunny, just turns a blind eye to them. If she finds out what happened between Gary and me, she won't do anything to him. Rather, she'll just kick me out of the house." Adam, who was sitting aside, whistled and stared at me with a lascivious gaze. "I can't blame Gary. You're irresistible," he chimed in.

I stared daggers at him. His words made my hair stand on end.

Instead of being offended by my attitude, Adam smiled and leaned toward me. "If you want, you can come to my racecourse to be an escort."

Susan stood in front of me and Adam and roared, "No way! Keep your hands off my daughter!"

I looked at her in awe.

I never expected that she would stand up for me.

However, Adam remained unmoved.

"Don't forget that you're also mine What can you do to stop me from touching your daughter anyway?" he reminded her with a sly smile.

The atmosphere became tense as the two stared at each other with an intense gaze.

Not wanting to worsen the situation, I grabbed Susan's arm and urged her to leave.

But before I could say a word, she sneered and said, "Adam, I checked your bank account. I know you don't have much money left. If you want to win against Edward, you have to acquire shares from his company. But how are you gonna do that when you don't have enough money?"

The corners of Adam's mouth twitched.

He looked into Susan's eyes and asked coldly, "What are you planning?"
