Chapter 142 Fine

• "Charles," Gina called out to Charles in a low voice when a few minutes had passed, and he still hadn't spoken to her. Even if she was afraid of what he was going to say and his reactions, she still wanted to hear it... Charles stood up and turned to look at her. His eyes filled with emotions that he couldn't explain. He opened his mouth to say something, but no words came out. Gina tried to hold his hand, but she was afraid he would let go of her hand... never in her life had she been so scared of losing someone. She didn't want to lose him. She stood up also, her eyes watering up as she stared at him, and the tears she tried her best to hold back fell freely... Charles felt his heart break as soon as he saw the tears in her eyes. Yes, he was angry, but seeing her looking genuinely heartbroken and remorseful about what she had done made his anger slowly start to dissipate. He had no idea what had occurred back then because he had not met her, but he knew that the Gina that was standing in front of him would never do such a thing like that... "I'm sorry," Gina said in between her sobs, and Charles's hand reached out to her face and wiped her tears away... "it's okay," he said in a low voice and managed to smile slightly at her. "we just have to make things right," He said and opened up his arms for her... Gina bit her lips as she hugged him and tried to hold in her tears... "Please don't leave me," She muttered as they hugged, and Charles shook his head. "I'm never going to leave you, I love you," He said and held her closed while Gina buried her face in his chest... "I love you so much," She said in a low voice, and when she raised her head to look at him, Charles planted a soft kiss on her lips, so she would stop crying... her cheeks became flushed, and she swallowed when memories of the night he had proposed to her flashed through her mind... how could she ever forget such a night... it was etched in her brain...
• "I want to make things right, but I have no idea how to approach Juliet," Gina said. She had gone to Juliet's office a few times but couldn't get out of her car and instead drove back to her boutique. She was afraid that Juliet wouldn't forgive her. Because if it were her, Gina wasn't sure if she would be so forgiving. She had tried to run her over, and Alex wasn't there that day, and she had been successful. Juliet would have sustained a lot of injuries or, in a worst-case scenario, died... how could she face someone she almost killed... "I will come with you and talk to Alex. You don't have to worry," Charles assured.
• "Do you think she will forgive me?" She asked, and Charles couldn't give her an answer to her questions. He, too, wanted to make up with Alex after what happened at his office...
