SCARLET'S POV:
I watched Charlie from afar, a mix of emotions swirling within me. Guilt, regret, and a hint of relief.
I had never intended for things to go this far. I had never meant for Suzana to die.
But she had discovered my secret, and I knew I had to silence her. I couldn't let her expose me.
As I looked at Charlie, I felt a pang of remorse. He had lost his daughter, and I was the one responsible.
But I pushed the feeling aside, reminding myself that I had done what I had to do. I had protected myself, my reputation, and my empire.
I turned away from Charlie, my eyes scanning the crowd. I spotted Carter, my loyal associate, and nodded subtly.
It was time to move on, to put the past behind me. I had a business to run, and I couldn't let sentiment get in the way.
