Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Scarlett’s POV:

"No!"

As James fell into the boundless sea, my entire world collapsed around me.

"James! My beloved James!"

A mouthful of blood came out of my mouth.

As I lay weakly in Charles’ arms, I grasped his clothes with every ounce of strength I had left.

There was only one thing going through my mind right now; 1 wanted to save my beloved son so bad.

William suddenly rushed over, kicking Rita to the floor.

Afterwards, he bent over the raising of the balcony, staring down for a long time.

"I’m so sorry, Scarlett,"he said, pitying me.

"Sorry? Why are you apologizing?"

I struggled to stand up, but my body wouldn’t listen to me.

All I could do was to hold onto Charles’ hand as though my life depended on it.

"No! Our ames isn’t dead yet, right? Right?!"

"Scarlett, I’m sorry… I’m really sorry!"

Right now, I felt like a prisoner on death row.

And the sound of gunshot announcing my demise had finally resounded through my head.

I couldn’t move a muscle.

It was as if my body had been riddled by bullets and tattered into pieces.

"I don’t want your apology! I want my James back! I want him alive and well!"

Blood came out of my mouth again, staining Charles’ white shirt.

His face displayed his uneasiness and his eyes were filled with nothing but pain.

His hands trembled as he stroked my lips, as though he was trying to block out the blood from flowing

out.

"Scarlett, don’t do this!"

I couldn’t hear anything.

James was dead, and with him, my soul had been spirited away and buried into the deepest pits of the

sea.

Moments later, the sound of the police siren resonated from afar.

Gradually, I came back to my senses.

It was then that I realized that the murderer who slaughtered my child was still alive.

My dying heart was reignited with fury and desire for vengeance.

"I’m going to kill her! Give me Rita.I’ll kill her myself!"

I pushed Charles away, and grabbed the dagger from the floor.

However, he stopped me from moving.

"Scarlett, you shouldn’t kill her.The police will be hoe soon, and I promise you, Rita will get the

punishment she deserves."

Upon hearing that, I loosened my grip on the dagger, and it fell to the floor.I stared at Charles, dazed as

a bitter smile appeared on my lips.

Tears welled up in my eyes and my heart was broken into a million pieces.

"So, until now you still don’t have the heart to hurt her, huh?"

This sentiment made me feel like a laughing stock.

"No, it’s not like that, Scarlett.Let me explain."

Charles embraced me.

"Enough, Charles! Since you don’t want to do it, I will!"

William picked up the dagger from the floor, walking towards Rita, step by step.

"Stay away from me!"

Rita crawled back in fear.

But William grabbed her neck and lifted her up without mercy.

"Didn’t I warn you already? I told you never to harm Scarlett.And it looks like you don’t take my words

seriously at all!"

"I don’t care if you all love her! I am going to make her suffer a fate more miserable than death!"

Rita’s face turned red from being strangled.

Not a second later, the dagger pierced into her lower abdomen, and blood oozed out from it.Her eyes

widened in horror as she fell to the floor.

"Take her away."

William’s men took Rita’s unconscious body away before the police could arrive.

He then walked up to me and said, "Don’t worry, Scarlett.If you want her dead, I will not allow her to

live."

Even if that horrible woman were to die, my little angel, James, would never come back again.

At this point, I was hopelessly apathetic.

"William, take me away," I said.

But Charles held me tighter in his arms.

"You can’t take her away!"

"Charles, you just watched Rita kill Scarlett’s child, and you did nothing to avenge him! What makes

you think you still have the right to be by her side?"

Soon, I fell into William’s arms and passed oui.

I saw a faint dazzling light the moment I opened my eyes, and heard mechanical sounds around me.

At this moment, scenes of the past flashed through my mind.

I had once promised Charles that no matter what might happen in my life, 1I would be strong and live

on.

But without my son, I no longer had the fervo to continue living.

This was all my fault.

I should not have been with Charles.

If I had left him earlier, James might not have been killed by Rita.

Charles’ POV:

I waited at the door of the operating room.

The police were still searching for my son’s dead body, and my beloved wife was still in mortal danger.

‘God, please save Scarlett! I’ve already lost James.I can’t lose her, too!’ It seemed that God had heard

my sincere prayer.The light of the operating room went out, and a doctor covered in blood came out.

"The patient is out of fatal danger, but she’s still far too weak and needs to be hospitalized for careful

observation for a period of time."

Upon hearing the doctor’s words, all the tension in my body eased up, and I slumped onto the bench

weakly.

"And there’s one more thing.When the patient woke up, she asked us to tell you that she doesn’t want

to see you ever again, Mr.Moore."

‘She doesn’t want to see me again?’ I thought to myself.

‘That’s right… I don’t have any right to see her again.’’

"Is she all right?" I asked.

"The patient’s ankle was badly injured.Even though she’s been treated, she may have to live with a

disability from now on," replied the doctor.

"How could this be?"

"The worst isn’t her physical injuries.Both the patient’s mind and body are badly damaged, and she’s

lost the desire to live.Even if she could survive, her body will have many complications in the future.You

must prepare yourself for that, sir."

The doctor’s words devastated me.

This was all my fault.

‘Why did I have to be late? And the bastard who did this to us is Rita!’

"William, give me Rita."

All I could do now was to do as Scarlett wished and kill that horrible woman.

William shot me a glance and said, "I’m sorry, but Rita has my sister’s heart right now.I can’t give her to

you."

Suddenly, the atmosphere became tense.

At this time, Scarlett was pushed out of the operating room.

When I tried to get close to her, William pushed me away.

"Didn’t you hear what the doctor told you? She doesn’t want to see you again, Mr.Moore!"

I clenched my fists and looked at Tracy behind me.

"Tracy, stay with Scarlett and protect her."

Tracy looked back at me, visibly concerned.

"Mr.Moore, are you going back trd Lii.’ I shook my head, and buried my face in my hands, feeling

helpless and desperate.
