Farewell To My Endless Love novel Chapter 229

Nina's POV:

Scarlett, William, and I enjoyed a pleasant conversation in Moore mansion. When I noticed that Scarlett was getting tired, I offered to say goodbye.

"Let me walk you out," Scarlett said, standing up. However, I stopped her immediately. "You'd better go back and have a rest. I don't dare to tire you, in case Charles tries to get even with me!" Scarlett didn't know whether to laugh or cry at my statement, but she didn't insist and instead asked Janet to see us out.

When we walked out of the door, Janet walked up to me and whispered, "Nina, could you do me a favor?"

Seeing how mysterious she was acting, I leaned over and lowered my voice as well. "Go ahead." "Scarlett and Charles are finally getting along well with each other. I hope you can be more careful with your words when talking with them. Please don't say anything that might affect their relationship."

"Ah, I get it. You refilled the tea for me just now to interrupt me, right?

"That's correct." "Alright. Don't worry, I'll mind my words in the future." I promised earnestly, patting my chest.

"More than anyone, I don't want any more ups and downs in their relationship. Scarlett's gone through a lot. God should bless her."

Janet nodded, but she said nothing.

However, I could feel her care and affection for Scarlett.

I hooked Janet's arm intimately, but my gesture took her by surprise. She stiffened, and looked at me with slightly widened eyes.

I smiled at her, "We're both Scarlett's friends, so that makes us friends too. Let's not be so distant with each other."

At this, Janet smiled as well. "Okay."

I soon bade goodbye to Janet and left the mansion, and quickly caught up with William.

William smiled at me, amused. "You're so popular."

I smiled back cheekily, and changed the subject. "Charles is really hard to deal with. He's so cunning, tsk!"

"Well, which big shot in this world wouldn't be cunning?" William's mellow laughter rang, pleasant to the ears.

"And what about you?"

As we walked, we happened to pass by a tree. The sunlight poured through the leaves of the trees and fell on William's face. In the contrasting light and dark etched by the shadows, his usual tenderness faded away and revealed a rather frightening expression.

"Me? I'm even more horrible." He grinned, looking so much different than his usual gentle appearance.

I couldn't help but laugh. "Well, well! I didn't expect you to be so humorous."

We soon got out of the shade from the tree, and the shadows left William's face as sunshine enveloped his entire being once again. His usual gentle smile returned. "I gave it a try, and I found that it wasn't very difficult."

"Hi, Scarlett."

"Hi, William. What's the matter?"

"Did Charles ever tell you that my sister's heart was transplanted into Rita?"

His words took me by surprise. I didn't expect him to be aware of the fact that I knew about the heart. I thought I had put on a good enough act in front of him just now.

A brief pause later, and I admitted it frankly. There was no point in hiding it. "Yes."

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you this before, Scarlett. I just don't want you to misunderstand and think that I have something to do with Rita," William explained sincerely. "She may have my sister's heart, but we are not friends in the slightest."

"Okay," I replied lightly, trying to make my voice sound casual. In all honesty, I didn't want to talk about Rita anymore. After a few words with him, I hung up.

When I finally returned to the baby's room, I saw that James had fallen asleep. I called Tracy and Janet to the corridor.

"I hope you can keep this a secret for me. Don't tell Charles what I talked about with Nina and William," I said, looking at them sincerely.

They exchanged confused glances, silent.

I held their hands and added, "If Charles asks, you can just tell him that we were just chatting." They looked back at me, and much to my relief, nodded in agreement.
