Chapter Chapter 311: Take Them Away

Janet‘s POV:

Richard and I managed to catch Ava.

“Ava‘s child is just the same age as James. When James disappeared, someone took her child away a
s well. Chances are, the child who fell into the sea wasn‘t James!” I grabbed Richard‘s hand, hopeful th
at this would be the case.

He nodded at me and replied, “Ellison has also admitted that he conspired with Susan to kill Ava‘s child
.”

At long last, the truth had come to light. James was still very much alive. Richard and I both heaved a si
gh of relief. But right now, Charles was probably the happiest of all. Now that he was certain James wa
s still alive, a storm seemed to be brewing in his eyes and
an unfathomable emotion appeared on his face.

Ever since his child died and Scarlett left, he had been living like a soulless puppet. It was only in this
moment that he finally returned to his old self.

“Richard, tell the elders in my family that James is still alive,” said Charles.

“I‘m going to Kitsap to bring James and Scarlett back with me.”

His former decisive and vigorous personality had returned. He was like a general who had been reborn,
swearing to regain his lost territory. The wind blew against his coat, causing it to
flutter along with the wind and making him look like a king.

Richard and I went back to the
Moore mansion. There, we found that everyone was gathered in the living
room. Alice was sitting on the sofa with a heavy heart, while Lawrence was walking back and
forth in the living room. Meanwhile, Michael and
Christine were anxiously sitting on the other end of the sofa, agitated.

The moment I walked in, everyone looked at me. Their eyes displayed just how hopeful they were to he
ar of any good news. After taking a deep breath, I said, “James is still alive.”

The room fell silent for a moment. Lawrence‘s knees went
weak, causing him to stagger backwards and fall onto a chair. His reaction was followed by Alice‘s
whimpering.

Christine struggled to get up, staring into my eyes.

“Wait... did you just say that my dearest great grandson is still alive? Are you serious?”

“Mom, did you hear that? James is still alive. Thank God!” Alice cried.

Christine wept with joy as she asked me and Richard, “How is James doing now? Where on earth is he
? Has Charles found him already?”

“Don‘t worry, Madame. Our boss is already on his way to Kitsap to look for James. I’m positive that he‘ll
be able to find the boy soon,” I said

“Great! Charles is already on the case. It‘s only a matter of time until we
find James!” Even Michael Take Them Away couldn‘t hide his joy. He was earnestly nodding affirmativ
ely.



“But what about Scarlett? Does she know that James is still alive?” Christine asked, looking at me
expectantly.

“Perhaps the boss will call her and tell her the good news in person,” I responded, “Oh, thank God! Our
little angel is still alive! Perhaps this is a sign that they can be together again, and give James a compl
ete and happy family,” replied Christine.

“Of course. Scarlett loves James so much. Even if it‘s just for the sake of the child, I‘m sure she‘ll come
back,” I added.

All of a sudden, the excitement on Alice‘s face disappeared. She appeared to
be thinking of something. And then, she looked up at me. “Janet, you said that Scarlett has given birth t
o twins, right?”

I wasn‘t sure how I should answer the question, for I was conflicted if I should tell them the truth,

“Have you seen them with
your own eyes?” Alice asked tentatively. “I haven‘t.” I shook my head, letting out a sigh. I kept my promi
se to Scarlett, and decided not to tell them that she didn‘t really lose her memory.

“Then, what did Scarlett say? Tell me!” said Alice.

“All Scarlett has told me is that she
has twins now and that they‘re less than a month old,” I responded.

“They‘re less than a month old? That‘s odd. So she really got pregnant after she left?” Christine murmu
red.

“Does she really lose her memory and be with William?”



I just now realized that they were suspecting that the twins were actually my boss‘ children. Truthfully, I
didn‘t get to see Scarlett‘s kids when I met with her. I wasn‘t sure how old the babies were.

“Let‘s try not to worry about other things for now. We‘re fortunate that James is still alive, and the import
ant thing is that we get him back,” suggested Michael.

Upon hearing his words, nobody dared to bring up the topic again, and the whole family was excited ab
out the good news again. I was really happy for them, but I was still worried about Scarlett.

After walking out of the villa, I called Tracy. “Hello, Tracy. Where is Scarlett? Is she aware that James is
still alive?” I asked.

“Wait, what? James is still alive?” I heard Tracy‘s shocked voice over the phone Her question left me co
nfused.

‘Why hasn‘t the boss told Scarlett?‘ I wondered.

“You don‘t know it yet? The boss should‘ve informed you already,” I responded.

“I‘m not sure if he has spoken to Scarlett. She went out with William earlier this morning,” said Tracy.

“She went out?”

I had a bad feeling about this.

‘Shit! Did William take action before my boss could? No! I have to tell him right away!‘

Charles‘ POV:

After finding out that James was still alive, I hurried to Kitsap and set an appointment with William at on
ce.



Inside a private room, I sat across him.

“Charles, are you here to tell me that you‘ll agree to divorce Scarlett?”

William was so arrogant His provocations didn‘t faze me, and I said nothing I just poured him a glass of
wine. The scarlet liquid slowly slowed into the crystal glass, and my sullen face was reflected on it.

“Why are you pouring wine for me? Are you planning to poison me?” William picked up the glass and to
ok a sip. He gave me a nod, and then he mocked me with that smug face of his.

“If I wanted to kill you, I wouldn‘t need to poison you.”

“Oh, that‘s right. The impervious Mr. Moore has always been a strait–laced and law–
abiding man. You‘re even indifferent to the death of your own son.”

His words were like a knife, jabbing into my heart. This pain was something that I would never forget.

“Rita is still alive, isn‘t she?”

The sardonic smile on William‘s face disappeared. Then, he nodded in response. “Yes, I‘ve heard about

“If she can undergo and survive a heart transplant once, chances are, it can happen again. William, is S

William fell silent, wearing a smirk. It was then that something dawned on me. “So, have you told Scarle
everything?”

William raised his eyebrows and said noting. Gradually, my heart sank.

I had thought that I would win the battle this time, for I had enough evidence to prove that William had be

“Why would I tell her anything? Have you forgotten that Scarlett has lost all her memory?” William‘s word

“Did Scarlett really lose her memory?”

“Of course! Otherwise, why would she have children with me?”

“Is that so? You‘re a sly dog, William. You managed to take Susan–
away before I could take action, but there‘s one thing you failed to take into account. Her lover, Ellison, k

William‘s hand holding the glass had been frozen in midair. He put down the glass and crossed his arms

“This time, I‘m here to take Scarlett and James home.”

“Do you really believe she‘ll agree to go with you? She and I have children together. She‘s not going to l

Silence ensued in the room. Moments later, I gave him an ultimatum. “William, I‘m going to say this just

“Hell no,” William refused firmly.

“I‘ve already given you a warning. I implore you to choose wisely.”
