Charles’s POV
Once I left the hospital.I drove to Samantha’s clinic "Charles, what a pleasant surprise! What are you
doing here? I’m currently making soup for your grandma."
Samantha hurriedly approached me. The fascination and affection in her eyes could not be hidden.
Merely seeing it annoyed me. I used to think of Samantha as gentle, considerate, and friendly, so I let
Caroline befriend her.
But to my chagrin.
Samantha was actually a sly vixen And I was incredibly ignorant to not notice it at first.
I shined my complex feelings about this whole matter and just put on a smile "Samantha, my grandma
just woke up Her brain is probably scrambled right now, which led her to believe that Vou ir someone
else I hope it doesn’t bother you," I said, Samantha waved her hand in dismissal and chuckled "oh, it’s
fine! It’s my pleasure to help her out"
Then, I sat on the sofa and heaved a sigh Samantha seemed nervous
"Charles, what happened? You look like you’re in a bad mood," she said.
"I used to think that Caroline was the best woman in the world, but now I’m not so sure I have no idea
since when she began to be so jealous.She keeps fighting with me regardless of the occasion," I
complained bitterly as I rubbed my temples
For a moment, Samantha was stunned.
Seconds later, she reluctantly replied, "I don’t think Caroline means to do that, I believe she’s just doing
it because she loves you."
"Love? I don’t feel any love from her! The only reason I want her back is because I want the kids to
have a mother who loves them.But I can’t pretend anymore.I’m tired."
I covered my face and made myself look as dismal as possible. Samantha sat beside me, feeling
distressed and holding my hand.
“Charles, Caroline isn’t the only woman in the world.If you don’t want to be with her, you don’t have to!"
I did my best to hold back my disgust, and I held her hand tightly.
"Samantha, you’re so kind and considerate.If only I could marry a woman like you."
"Charles, do you really mean that?" Samantha’s affection for me became even more evident in her
eyes.
I could tell from her voice that she was becoming more excited with every passing second.
"I… I’ve actually been in love with you for a long time.I can be a good wife and a good mother to your
kids.I just need you to have faith in me, okay?"
Hiding my doubts, I said, "But we just met each other.Samantha, you don’t have to comfort me."
"Charles, do you really not remember me? A year ago, a psychopath harassed me and you saved me,"
Samantha replied anxiously. I had a vague memory of what happened at that time.
"That was you?" I responded.
"Yes!"
Samantha could no longer contain her excitement.
She touched my face and muttered, "Ever since that day, I’ve been madly in love with you! Charles, just
so I could get closer to you and stay by your side, I did so many things."
She had always acted so prim and proper.I had never seen her act this unhinged before.I held her
wrist, leaned closer to her lips, and said, "Really? What kind of things have you done? Tell me,
sweetie."
"I asked my assistant to tamper with the brakes of Caroline’s car.Then, I saved her, so we could
become friends.Honestly, I don’t want to be friends with her.I just want to understand why you love
her.A bitch like that doesn’t deserve your love," Samantha said through gritted teeth.
I nodded in agreement.
"You’re right.Caroline has always been so indifferent to me.I’ve done so much for her, but she’s never
given me anything back.She just enjoys the benefits of my love without giving back."
"I understand your pain, Charles.As long as Caroline disappears, you’ll be able to live in peace!"
Samantha wrapped her arms around my neck. She leaned against my chest and rubbed her cheek
against it. Enduring my disgust of her, I said affectionately.
"You’ve done so much for me, and yet I know nothing about you, Samantha, I owe you so much."
Right after I said that, she placed her finger on my lips and shushed me.
"Charles, I did all of this willingly."
She took out a photo album and handed it to me.
She brushed her fingers against the photos, her eyes, turning crazy and obsessed
"Charles, all of these photos were taken in secret by one of my men.Whenever you’re not by my side, I
just stare at these photos."
The moment I saw the pictures, I was too shocked to utter a word, and cold sweat ran down my back.
My initial assumption was that Samantha had feelings for me, but I didn’t expect her to be this
obsessed already We’d known each other for quite some time now, but I never noticed any of this
"Samantha, I.I’m touched.I didn’t expect that you love me this much,"
I said, holding her hand, "Oh, Charles! I’m so glad to hear you say that I’ll do anything for you in a
heartbeat."
Suddenly, Samantha sprang to her feet and took off her dress.
Her face was flushed, and her eyes were burning with fiery love. Just before her red lips could touch
mine, I stood up from the sofa and shouted, "Samantha, I will never love a lunatic like you. My answer
is and always will be ‘no’!"
Samantha’s eyes widened in disbelief.
"What is the matter with you, Charles?"
It was then that I showed her the recorder
"Caroline is the only one I love! Samantha, if I were you, I’d turn myself in to the police as soon as
possible, or else I will never let you live this down," I answered.
All of a sudden, she took a ring from her pocket and slipped it onto her ring finger.
"No! This isn’t possible! Charles, can’t you see? We’re a perfect match! That bitch, Caroline, doesn’t
deserve you.I’m the only one who’s qualified to be by your side.Just me!"
She threw herself at me, screaming wildly, and sobbing like a lunatic.
However, she gained no sympathy or pity from me.
And when I saw the ring on her finger, I got even angrier.
"That ring belongs to Caroline.You don’t deserve to have it!" I pressed her against the wall and took off
the ring.
Samantha struggled desperately as tears streamed down from her eyes.
"No! Don’t take off my ring! It’s mine! I’m your bride, Charles.We’re gonna be married soon! Even
Christine wishes us happiness!"
I scoffed at her and tightened my grip on the ring.
"Caroline is the only bride I want.Just patiently wait until you go to jail, you maniac.I will never forgive
anyone who hurts my Caroline!"
After letting Samantha go, I walked away.
She struggled to get up from the ground and shouted hysterically, "Even if I let Caroline go, Boris won’t!
He’s getting closer and closer to you! He’s coming for you all!"
I stopped in my tracks and asked, "What did you say?"
"If I can’t be with you, Caroline won’t either!"
Having said that, Samantha slammed the door at me.
An ominous feeling arose in my heart.I quickly sent Richard a message.
"Send more people to keep an eye on Samantha.She’s a psychopath!"
