Farewell To My Endless Love
Chapter 450 Cut Off Adam's Livelihood

Charles' POV:

Raina's face turned red, while I let go of her, disgusted.

She leaned against the wall, gasping for breath; her eyes, filled with terror.

My mother came to her side and held her. "Are you alright, Raina?"

My mother turned her gaze towards me and said in a reproachful tone, "What the hell are you doing, Charles?"

Ignoring my mother, I looked Raina dead in the eye and said, "I've been too tolerant of you. Pray that the kidnapping has nothing to do with you, or else I will make sure that your every waking moment becomes a living hell."

Raina wiped away her tears and cried, "Charles, I really had nothing to do with that! Your mother can testify that I've been staying at the Moore mansion this whole time, recuperating."

"You know what you've done," I sneered.

I'd rather not hear her talk about her injuries for another second.

After casting her a cold glance, I left.

Once I had left the Moore mansion, I called Richard.

"Buy out all the available shares of the Wilson Group in the market before Adam does it," I ordered.

This whole thing was well-thought-out; from the kidnapping to the sway of public opinion.

The only one who'd benefit from all of this was Adam.

I'd never let that fool threaten Caroline's position. Afterwards, I added firmly, "I don't care if the price is higher than the market price. Do what you must to purchase all the available shares." "Understood, Mr. Moore."

Once the phone call was over, I stepped on the gas.

Upon arriving at the parking lot of Adam's racecourse, I got off the car and took out my phone.

"Amy, purchase ownership of the land near the amusement park the Wilson Group is about to build, regardless of the costs," I said while walking forward. Starting today, I would cut off Adam's livelihood.

I wanted to ensure that he would never be involved in any project for the rest him life.

'I'm going to make him pay for everything that Caroline has suffered!'

After putting my phone away, I straightened my suit and strode into the racecourse.

Amidst the audience, Adam was talking to the people nearby, visibly excited.

"See that? I told you we should've bet on No. 5! Look at its glorious mane. It'll obviously be the champion."

"I must say, you have a discerning eye. You're looking quite refreshed lately. It seems like you've been having good luck in both business and women."

"Is that true?" I asked, cutting in on their conversation.

Adam turned around, horrified to see me. "Charles, why are you here?"

I glared at him and asked, "Am I not allowed to be here? If I hadn't come, I never would've known how successful you've gotten."

Adam told the people beside him to leave and approached me obsequiously. "Are you here to gamble as well, Charles?" he asked.

I grabbed his collar and pinned him to the railing. "You killed Susan and framed Caroline for the crime, you prick! How dare you show up here and gamble like you did nothing?" "Charles, do not ruin my good name. You are aware that I was at the groundbreaking ceremony that day, aren't you? You saw me with your own eyes, for God's sake!"

I scoffed at him and grabbed him by the neck.

"Charles, I advice you not to do anything rash. There are CCTV cameras here!" Adam shouted, grabbing my hand.

"Killing you here would be a kindness." I let go of him and spat on the ground by his feet.

Adam gasped for air while covering his neck.

Slowly, I wiped my hands and sneered, "Bear in mind that this coming month, I'm going to make you lose everything until you become a beggar." The look on Adam's face changed dramatically. "What do you mean?"

I threw away the tissue and left without answering the question.

Upon my return to the company, I came out of the elevator and saw Amy waiting for me outside.

"Mr. Moore, we've already began the negotiations about the ownership of the land. The other party is still considering our offer," she explained while walking behind me.

"Keep me posted on that deal. Remember, I don't care how much it costs us; I want that land!" I remarked.

When we reached my office, I saw Richard standing at the door outside.

Before I could ask a question, he spoke first. "We've already acquired three percent of the Wilson Group's shares, sir. The acquisition is still ongoing."

Unsatisfied with the progress, I frowned.

"Speed it up."

Then, I remembered what happened at the racecourse and said, "Cut off Adam's gambling business first."

"Yes, Mr. Moore." Richard took the order and left.

Chloe's POV:

Once I had escorted Raina back to her room, I heard a knock on the door.

I went to the stairway and looked downstairs, only to replace Gary and Sunny entering the house. 'They must be here to pick up Raina!'

I ran back to her room and said, "Raina, Gary and Sunny are here."

Startled by this news, she replied, "Chloe, I need your help to turn them away. I don't wanna go home!"

I nodded and said, "I'm not going to let them take you away, Raina. I promise, you'll be able to continue living here."

I closed the door of the room and went downstairs.

"Mr. and Mrs. Hill, what a pleasant surprise! Raina's wound still hasn't recovered. It would be better to let her stay here and recuperate," I explained.

Gary frowned at that. "It's time for Raina to go back to the film set. She's way behind schedule." After a moment of hesitation, I said, "Mr. Hill, I'm sure you know by now that Raina's biological mother has passed away just recently. She's been crying every day since then. It wouldn't be appropriate for her to continue with the shooting in the state she's in."

The look on Gary's face changed a little. "Her mother is Sunny," he said

"Chloe, please let Raina come home with us. She'll be more comfortable at home than in someone else's house. It'll speed up her recovery. Besides, your brother, Charles, doesn't seem like he wants to be around Raina. It's not appropriate for her to continue living here," Sunny stated.

After pondering on it, I had to agree. "I understand. I'll tell Raina."

After seeing Mr. and Mrs. Hill off, I went upstairs and said, "Raina, why don't you go home for the time being?"

Her eyes widened as she grabbed my hand tightly. "Chloe, what on earth happened? Didn't you just say that you're not going to drive me away?"

She didn't seem to notice that she was hurting me. I lowered my head and withdrew my hand. "But... Charles is disgusted of you now. It'll be meaningless for you to remain here any longer." "I'm not leaving!" Raina roared. "Chloe, I can't go back there. That bastard Gary Hill, he is going to force me to shoot porn movies. He often peeps at me while I'm in the shower. That demon even raped me!" "What?" I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

'Even though they're not really related by blood, Gary is Raina's father. How could he ruin his marriage and do something so disgusting to his own daughter?' I wondered. "Doesn't Sunny know?" I asked.

"She does, but she has to rely on the Hill family, so she can't do anything about it," Raina said in a trembling voice.

Upon raising her head, I saw that her eyes were red and swollen. "Please, Chloe... I'm beggingyou, don't drive me away. The only one who can save me now is Charles." While looking at her tearful face, I wiped her tears away and attempted to comfort her. "It's going to be okay. I'll do everything I can to help you."
