A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 509

When Charles was suddenly pushed away like this by Georgia, he was stunned in his tracks and couldn't respond for a long time, as if his soul had been taken away. Suddenly, he clung to Georgia again. "Macey, I'm Charles, I'm Charles!"

"Mr. Read?" Her body ached from Charles's hug, and Georgia pushed Charles's body in dismay again. However, she was held tightly by him, as if he wanted to rub her into his body.

"Macey, I miss you so much! I'm sorry I didn't protect you properly, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" Charles whispered, an inexplicable fear gripping his heart and his body trembling as he held her.

"Mr. Read, I'm not Macey, please let go of me!" Georgia knew he was pining for his lover who was already in heaven, how could she be any different?

"No! Macey, don't push me away! I miss you so much!" Charles buried his face in her hair and murmured, "Macey…"

Still being held tightly by him, Georgia sighed inwardly and said faintly, "Mr. Read, I'm not your Macey. I can understand your pain of missing someone, not someone you're far away from, but someone you'll never see again. The feeling of eternal separation makes love eternal, but you shouldn't mistake me for her no matter how much you miss her! Because she should be the only one in your heart! You can love again, you can marry again, but no one can replace the only one in your heart! This is the only thing we should do for the one we love now!"

Her words fell on Charles's ears and Charles felt his heart broken, she was not Macey! He was reluctant to let her go, but at this moment, he knew he really had to let go, she was not Macey, Macey was the only one. However, in this life he would never be able to hold her hand again or see her smile again.

He let go of Georgia, muddle-headed like being drenched in cold water, his whole body cold and uncomfortable, "You're not my Macey!"

Georgia looked into his deep eyes, which were filled with the despair of grief.

He looked at her too, so closely that his withdrawn soul seemed to return. He seemed to come back to his senses and something seemed to be sprouting from deep inside, breaking through that elegant and dispirited appearance and leaving his mind confused for a moment.

After a moment of silence, Charles closed his eyes and murmured, "I'm sorry! I know you're not Macey."

Macey was already dead, and it was he who personally cremated her, personally carried her ashes, and personally sent her to the cemetery for burial, so this woman wouldn't be Macey. When Charles came back to his senses, his gaze sank and he spoke again in a low voice, "I'm sorry! Yes, there is no one to replace Macey, she is the only one!"

"It's okay!" Georgia didn't blame him for the offense. "Mr. Read, take care of yourself! The deceased are gone, and the living should be strong so that the deceased can rest in peace!"

Charles was slightly taken aback. "Have you ever lost someone you loved?"

Georgia smiled faintly, neither admitting nor denying!

Charles was suspicious because what she had just said was so thorough that she couldn't have made such remarks if she hadn't had such experiences engraved on her soul!

He looked Georgia up and down deeply, then turned to look at Arthur and asked wordlessly. Was that what Arthur had called him for?

Just because there was a woman here who resembled Macey! So Arthur asked him to come here to meet this girl? For what? To woo her? To make her a stand-in for Macey?

"Georgia, you go in first and help us prepare dinner!" Arthur said.

Georgia nodded and turned her gaze back to Charles.

And Charles also looked at her. His thoughts instantly drifted away and tangled inextricably in his mind, leaving his eyes, originally full of darkness, tinged with intense sorrow at this moment.

When their eyes made contact with each other, Charles still had a momentary loss of concentration. He was shocked at her resemblance to Macey, but he regained his indifference in an instant.

Georgia nodded faintly and went to the room.

"You called me here just for this woman?" Charles said in a cold voice and sat down. His mind, which had been in turmoil because of the suddenness of the situation, regained its composure with that.

"They're a lot alike!" Arthur looked at Charles with a complicated gaze. "Macey said she wanted you to find a woman with a good heart!"

Charles turned his head abruptly, looked at Arthur with a cold and sharp gaze, and chided him in a cold voice, "Arthur, what do you mean by this? I don't need you to worry about my affairs! Please don't meddle in it anymore! I'm leaving!"

"Charles!" Arthur hurriedly called out to Charles. "That's not what I mean, and I don't know what I mean!"

What was he doing?

Introducing a girlfriend to Charles?

He was just too excited because this woman was too much like Macey. For a moment, he was so excited that he called Charles. But when Charles asked him such a question, Arthur didn't know how to answer for a while.

"No matter how much they look alike, she's not her!" Charles dropped these words and turned to leave.

"Charles! Where are you going?" Arthur wheeled forward to catch up with Charles.

"You?" Stunned for a moment, his glimpse caught the desperate and sorrow look on her face, and Charles froze. "You don't understand anything! What do you know??"

"Nothing! I just know that you're not the only person in this world who has lost a loved one, and you're not the only one who knows sadness and heartache. There are many people who are heartbroken still have a smile on their face, they still treat their friends, family, all those who care about them with full gratitude and don't let them worry! Arthur feels guilty about you and feels intensely guilty about Macey, but when you leave like this, won't his heart feel even guiltier?"

"It's none of my business!" Charles spat out these words mercilessly, lit another cigarette, and said in a somewhat annoyed mood

"You're heartless!"

"How am I heartless?" Charles was stunned.

"He kindly asked you to come over and you said a few words that were nothing more than accusations, aren't you being heartless?"

"Macey died to save him, and you want me to go easy on him?" Charles said grimly.

"He didn't mean to do it, at least not in the way he intended. No one wants her to die, but that's the reality, it's cruel, it's an accident! It's an accident that no one wants to happen!"

"But she's dead!" These few words of Charles almost came out in a low roar, hatred enveloping him at once, making his heart fluctuate painfully and can't calm down for a long time.

He didn't know if it was resentment or hate, and he didn't even know what the mood was! In short, his heart hurt and was very sad! Especially today when he saw the same face as Macey, the pent-up resentment in his heart burst out all of a sudden.

Georgia looked at Charles quietly, not expecting her to be so up to standard as a caregiver. She actually had to help Arthur, who was paralyzed in a wheelchair, to do persuading work for his friend.

"I'm sorry!" A sudden voice came from the door made the two of them freeze and startle for a moment. Georgia turned around and saw Arthur, who was sitting in a wheelchair, in the doorway.

Charles also froze for a moment, then looked away.

Arthur said in a deep voice, "Charles, I'm really sorry that I didn't protect Macey properly. I shouldn't have let her save me, in fact I really wish the one who died was me!"

"It's too late for you to say anything, she's no longer alive!" Charles yelled at Arthur unceremoniously.

Arthur's face bleached miserably at once.
