All Too Late

“It’s me.” Reaching out, Charles wanted to touch her face but withdrew his hand.

“Ah!” Vivian suddenly screamed.

Charles was taken aback.

Pushing him away, Vivian got up and ran away.

“Vivian!” Charles swiftly chased after her.

As Vivian did not run very fast, Charles soon caught up with her and quickly seized her in his arms.

“Let me go! Don’t touch me!” Vivian cried out.

At the sound, people around started looking over.

Fortunately, Charles brought along some men with him. However, he did not let them touch Vivian.

As Vivian was putting up a fierce fight, he had no choice but to knock her out and carry her into the car.

He then immediately gave a call to Kathleen.

“I’ve found Vivian. Where should I send her?” he asked.

Kathleen was surprised. “You found her already?”

“Yes.” Charles nodded.

Kathleen was struck dumb for a moment before saying, “Caleb doesn’t want her to be exposed. Just send her back to the Lewis residence. I’ve prepared a herbal soup there that would help ease her nerve. Feed her some.”

“Okay. Vivian put up a fight just now, so I knocked her out and carried her into the car. We’ll have to get someone to delete any relevant stuff from the internet to avoid troubles,” Charles replied with a hoarse voice.

“Okay. I’ll call Caleb.” With that, Kathleen hung up the phone.

Putting away his phone, Charles removed his jacket and wrapped it around Vivian.

He kept her in his arms the whole journey.

As he recalled, Vivian was not this skinny even though she had a slim figure back then.

He did not expect her to be so skinny now and started wondering why she became like that.

Judging from her appearance, she seems to have gone… crazy. I wonder what happened to her.
