Everything was hard to digest but it was ultimately lying in front of him. Charles knew that he had to believe each word, each sentence since it holds immense power in them.
Not only does he realize that his father had played the role of the villain in his love story but...was this the only reason for her to get away from him? her family's rebellion...he can't even expect it.
"Was this the same reason why she had quit her job as my secretary?"
"Correct. She was asked to leave you and go away no matter what. That is what she did. Leaving you and...going back from where she came." Jack answered honestly but erased the brows of Charles who had hardly recovered from his emotions.
There were tears on the brink of falling from the eyes but Charles had to manage to not let them fall via his cheeks.
The turn of the sentiments was deeper than any other pain. "But where did she even go.....?"
