Chapter 294 He Finally Came
Chapter 294 He Finally Came
Nancy's POV:
After I got off work, I waited anxiously at the gate of the company, hoping to come across Charles again.
Not long after, Amy came out of the gate. I approached her, looking behind her and trying to find the man that I had been thinking of day and night.
"Nancy? Are you waiting for Mr. Moore?"
I flashed Amy a meek smile.
"If you're already off duty, Amy, what about him"
"He already left hours ago," she replied.
"I see..."
I was saddened by this, and by the time I gathered my composure, Amy had already left.
Disappointed, I let out a sigh. Then, I decided to call Nick. "Nick, I didn't get to see Charles today," I complained.
"I've already told you many times. Waiting for him in such an idiotic way won't do you any good! Just listen to me, Nancy. Give up on Charles. The healthy thing for you to do is to move on."
"Shut up, Nick!" I roared through gritted teeth.
"Anyway, I've got something else to do now. Bye!" My brother's indifference was disappointing.
Still, I wasn't going to give up on Charles.
Especially now that Scarlett was gone. This would be the perfect time for me to get Charles.
A bold plan took shape in my mind.
Since I couldn't find him in the company, I figured it would be better to wait for him at his house.
'If I could rent a house near his, I would see him more often!'
Spencer's POV:
Today my new bar, Swarms of Stars, officially opened in Kitsap.
Around eight in the evening, William arrived at the bar as scheduled.
"Spencer, is Charles here?" William asked me at once.
I lit a cigar, glancing at the riled up crowd downstairs through the smoke. Right now, my face displayed how sullen I was. "William, Charles isn't coming. He doesn't want to disturb Scarlett anymore."
"Is that so?"
William chuckled.
Seeing him laugh like that made me angry. "William, please do not forget that even Scarlett is with you now, Charles is still her legal husband."
"Is that the reason he's scared to meet with me?" he retorted.
"What are you trying to say?" I furrowed my brows.
"He must've guessed why I wanted to talk to him. I want to convince him to divorce Scarlett," said William.
This time, I was rendered speechless. 'Charles would never agree to a divorce,' I remarked inwardly.
"He said that he'd set Scarlett free, but it looks like he doesn't want to make a clean break with her. Is this what he calls 'never bothering her again?"
William also took out a cigarette from the table and lit it. Then, we stared at each other in silence.
"Is it true that Scarlett has lost her memory?"
"It is."
Now, I was staring at the crowd with a conflicted expression. "If a person forgets all her sadness and even her past source of happiness, do you think it's a good thing or a pity?"
William didn't offer me a response.
All of a sudden, my phone rang. Upon taking it out, I saw that Charles was the one who was calling me.
"Charles, what's up?" I said.
"Spencer, tell William to stay," he replied.
"Huh? Why?"
"Do not let him leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
'This is great! Just as I've expected, Charles is a real man! He'd never back down when it comes to his beloved woman.'
This made me admire Charles.
"William, Charles told me to tell you not to leave," I said with a smug smile.
"Oh? Then, I shall wait for him to arrive," he replied.
I raised my eyebrows, picked up a glass, poured liquor into it, and leaned against the sofa.
"It seems that you're unaware that Charles is not just a good businessman; he's also a fierce combatant."
I shot William a glance, displaying my confidence in Charles' capabilities.
William sneered at me with eyes filled with disdain. "A fierce combatant? Are you kidding me? He couldn't even protect his wife and son!" 'Did this man come here to look for trouble?' I wondered.
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but that lady downstairs is your woman, right?"
William looked at me dead in the eye before he glanced downstairs, indicating that I follow his gaze.
When I did so, I saw Vivian walking into the bar with a man. They seemed quite intimate.
Vivian was holding the man's arm intimately and leaning against his chest with a bright smile on her face. The man held her waist, looking into her eyes as they spoke to each other.
They embraced each other as though there was no one else around them. Then, they joined the dance floor.
Along the way, Vivian looked up and waved at me as though she was goading me.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
I felt like I was being cuckolded by my own wife.
It made me so angry that I lost my mind in an instant. I put down my glass of wine, rushed downstairs into the crowd, and grabbed Vivian's hand.
"Come with me!"
'I'm going to punish this damned woman!'
"Spencer, are you crazy? Let go of me!"
Vivian was so infuriated that she struggled to break free from my grasp.
"Sir, please let my girlfriend go. You're hurting her," said Vivian's companion.
'This bastard is even trying to stop me! The audacity of this man!'
"Who do you think you are?" I held my head high, glaring at him.
"Spencer, stop being so rude to my boyfriend. You are my boss; nothing more, nothing less. So, watch your mouth!"
Vivian seemed unaware of the severity of the situation.
"Did you say he's your boyfriend? In that case, why don't you kiss him in front of me?" I said, deliberately provoking her.
"Are you completely insane? Why would I kiss him in front of you?" At this point, Vivian was angry with me.
"As I thought, you wouldn't do it," I replied, looking at her dead in the eye.
All of a sudden, Vivian broke into laughter.
"Steven, darling..."
The moment I saw her touch the man's face and kissed him, all of my rationality left me. My heart flared up with anger. I pulled Vivian back and punched the man with every ounce of strength in my body without even giving a warning.
