Farewell To My Endless Love

Chapter 337 Hugging And Sleeping Together

Charles' POV:

I went straight to the hospital after coming out of the bar, and just when I was about to enter, I saw a doctor walking out of Scarlett's ward.

Without thinking too much, I entered the ward.

Scarlett was on the bed with her eyes closed.

I walked to the bedside, stared at her face for a moment before I leaned in and kissed her forehead. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

Scarlett did not open her eyes, but I noticed her eyelashes quivering.

However, I pretended like I did not notice it and continued to kiss her.

"Charles, you're pushing it! Stay away from me!" Just when I was about to kiss her lips, she put her hand on my chest, stopping me from getting any closer.

"I know that you are pretending to be asleep. I saw the doctor just a second ago. Did he say anything?" I held her hand.

She looked at me in silence, but she was not willing to talk to me at all.

Knowing that she still hated me, I did not expect her to respond. But her coldness still made me feel powerless.

Sighing heavily, I let go of her hand, and walked to the bathroom to freshen up.

Scarlett's POV:

I heaved sigh of relief after I saw Charles walk into the bathroom.

No matter how coldly I treated him, he kept approaching me relentlessly.

His persistence only made me feel uneasy and upset, and I just wanted to run away from him.

A while later Charles walked out of the bathroom.

He then lay on the bed and hugged me tightly from behind.

"Good night, Scarlett." There was a hint of tiredness in his voice.

And I was clearly annoyed with his behavior.

Hadn't he promised that he wouldn't touch me as long as I did not speak to him?

I wondered if I should continue to pretend to sleep, or if I should remind him of our agreement.

"Scarlett, thank you for giving birth to the twins even in that difficult situation." Saying that all of a sudden, Charles held me even tighter.

But I didn't respond to him. I squirmed in his arms uneasily.

Noticing that, he moved even closer to me.

And now, our bodies were stuck together.

Charles' breath brushed against my ears, and my heart began race uncontrollably.

Just when I was about to say something, Charles suddenly pressed his hand against my heart.

"Scarlett, your heart seems to be racing. Is it because of my touch? You said you didn't want me, but your body seems to be disagreeing with your mind." There seemed to be a hint of complacency in his tone and he seemed to be quite happy with my body's honest reaction.

I blushed in embarrassment and hurried to pull his hands off my body.

"Scarlett, why did you stop pretending to be asleep?" Charles held my hand and suddenly turned me over to face him.

He was smiling.

I tried to remain indifferent and silent as I wanted to continue to resist his approach.

However, instead of giving up, he leaned in and kissed me.

I immediately turned away to avoid his kiss.

"Scarlett, I miss the feeling of your touch, and I don't care even if you do it to refuse me. So there's no point in resisting. I want you," Charles whispered in my ear.

He gently pinched my chin and kissed my lips.

It was so gentle and irresistible that I was taken back to our sweet past.

In the end, I could only give up on struggling and let him kiss me.

Noticing that I was not resisting him any longer, he kissed me more passionately.

Holding me in his arms, he ran his hands under my clothes, fondling and caressing my body.

My heart began to beat wildly. I was jolted back to reality, and groaned in pain.

"Scarlett, did I hurt you?" Charles stopped at once with a worried look in his eyes.

Looking at his concerned expression, I couldn't help but scold myself for being such a disappointment. Even after being hurt so many times, I still couldn't help but love him.

I wanted to turn my back to Charles, but he held me tightly, stopping me.

"Scarlett, don't move." Noticing the change in my mood, he quickly pulled me into his arms.

I tried to get away from him, but he only tightened his arms around me.

"Scarlett, the doctor said that you must protect yourself against the cold. You will feel warmer if I hold you," Charles said in a gentle tone.

"I can put on more clothes to stay warm. I don't need you! And I can't fall asleep if you keep holding me like this!" I retorted.

However, he ignored my words completely and held me in his arms.

I had no choice but to give up the idea of struggling because he was so stubborn.

I thought that I would be staying awake all night long, but I fell asleep quite soon.

The next morning, when I woke up, Charles was not in the room, so I thought that he must've left.

It was only a moment of happiness before he walked in with a nurse, who was a physiotherapist.

He stood aside, carefully learning all the massaging techniques from the nurse.

When his hand touched my body, our intimate moment from the night before flash through my mind, and I immediately flushed.

Fortunately, the nurse was in the ward, so I knew that Charles would not do anything inappropriate in front of her.

That moment, someone knocked on the door.

"Mr. Moore, Miss Wood and Mr. Wood are here to see Mrs. Moore." It was Janet outside the door.

When I heard Nancy was there, I could not help but feel angry and glared at Charles.

How could he ask her to come over when he clearly knew that I did not like her?

Was he trying to show off their intimacy again?

"I didn't ask them to come," Charles explained in a hurry when he saw how angry I was.

I continued to stare at him, not wanting to believe a word he said.

Nancy and Nicholas walked in, surprised to see Charles there.

"Scarlett, are you feeling better now?" Nicholas put down the gift box on the table and greeted me with a polite smile.

Looking at Nancy, I suddenly remembered the embarrassing scene from the bar, and I was annoyed.

I smiled at Nicholas, but didn't say anything.

He seemed to have foreseen my attitude, so he did not speak more.

"Now that you've seen her, please leave. She needs to rest." Charles stood up and poured a glass of water for me before telling them to leave.

I was surprised by the sudden change in his attitude towards Nancy.

Just a few days ago, he had said that he would marry her and make her James' stepmother.

Why was he being so indifferent to her now?

"Scarlett, have a good rest. We'll come to see you another day," Nicholas said politely before walking to the door.

But Nancy stopped him and walked towards me. "Scarlett, please help me." She then looked at me with pleading eyes.

I was surprised by the dramatic change in her attitude towards me, and turned to Charles in a daze.

He was also surprised, but he frowned and did not say anything.

"Scarlett is still sick. What do you want?" Nicholas gave his sister a disapproving look.

"I accidentally offended a client yesterday, and now Charles wants to fire me! Scarlett, please put in a good word for me. He always listens to you! I really can't afford to lose this job!" Nancy begged me pitifully, her voice filled with despair.
