The Moment i let go my uncle 49

Chapter 49 

The yacht set sail

Charlotte and Rex returned to the deck

Inside the cabin, Zarek was the center of attention, gracefully handling the flattery with occasional smiles. He showed no particular reaction to Olivia’s presence

Tiago Amaral expertly created opportunities for his granddaughter

Célia was remarkably bold, constantly finding ways to engage Zarek in conversation, practically wearing her 

interest on her sleeve

Zarek maintained polite cordiality toward herneither cold nor overly warm. 

Olivia stood beside him, and though she appeared composed, there was something beneath the surfacea forced 

happiness

Poor woman

As a fellow woman, Charlotte could sense the bitterness behind Olivia’s smile

She watched the dynamic from a distance, her eyes darting between the three of them like some CIA operative conducting surveillance

Suddenly, Zarek glanced in her direction

” 

Charlotte froze

Before she could hide, he caught her watching with undisguised interest

The CEO narrowed his eyes, seemingly aware of exactly what she was thinking

Rex, would it be okay if I walk around the front?she asked nervously, turning to him

Sure, go ahead. I’ll keep an eye on things here,Rex readily agreed

Great. Call me if anything comes up.” 

With that, Charlotte escaped on her heels as if she’d been granted a reprieve

She made her way to an open area at the bow where two chairs had been placed and sat down

The waves rolled beneath them, while distant city lights condensed into golden specks against the misty night

She finally allowed herself to completely relax

Both physically and mentally

After enjoying the sea breeze for a while, she retrieved her old phone from a hidden compartment in her bag

She had turned it off after speaking with Summer and purchased a new phone with a new number for work purposes upon arriving in Portugal

When she powered on the old device, she found over 100 missed calls… 

Despite having it turned off for so long

There were calls from unknown numbers, her parents, Summer, other friends, her former subordinates, and even business acquaintances

She opened WhatsApp

Summer had sent several messages. The earliest read: Don’t answer, don’t engage, don’t believe anything. It’s all 

Issac

An hour later, Summer had written: Charlotte, where are you

Her parents had messaged: Where have you gone? Please come home

Even Gloria was asking: Where are you

It took her a long time to scroll through all the messages. It seemed like everyone in her life was concerned about 

her whereaboutsIssac, you obsessive psycho

She exhaled tiredly

Exiting WhatsApp, she found countless text and voice messages

They progressed from calm inquiries about her location to increasingly volatile outbursts of anger and emotional breakdowns. The most recent voice message had been sent just five minutes ago

His voice was low and hoarse, incoherent and choked with emotion

Babe, I’m sorry. I know I screwed upI’m a monster, I deserve to die, I’ve failed youPlease give me one more chanceYou can punish me however you want, take my life if you need toGo clear your head if you need to, I’ll be waiting at homeI only made one mistake, you can’tyou can’t give me a death sentence for that” 

She quickly turned off the phone again

As if delaying one more second might allow the pitiful man on the other end to drag her back into the endless abyss

Back in New York

Issac sat on the lawn in front of their mansion, looking haggard with disheveled hair and stubble darkening his jaw

Chapter 49 

Empty bottles surrounded him, and the house behind him was dark

He couldn’t bring himself to enter, couldn’t walk into a home without her

He had searched for her all day, using every method at his disposal, but she had vanished without a traceThe fear of losing her was like a vine tightening around his throat

He looked up at the moon with bloodshot eyes

On the sea, Charlotte also raised her head

It was a full moon night. The moonlight shone like a mirror, so bright it hurt her eyes. Slowly, the mirror’s surface seemed to splinter into countless cracksjust like their past that could never be made whole again

Charlotte had lost track of how long she’d been sitting there

Finally, Rex called, asking her to come to the second deck

She got up and headed there

The second level was purely for entertainmentswimming pool, karaoke room, home theater, card room, indoor golfeverything imaginable

This floor was dedicated solely to leisure

Rex told her they were playing Texas Hold’em in the card room

Charlotte smiled knowingly. The wealthy certainly loved their highstakes games

They found a place to sit and picked up some desserts

About an hour later, Zarek called and asked them to come in

Charlotte and Rex immediately went over

The card room was thick with cigar smoke. Wealthy players sat around the oval tablesome grinning with triumph, others sulking in defeat. Chips were stacked across the table surface, a stunning dealer distributed cards, and servers continuously offered red wine, champagne, and cigars. Between calls of check,raise,and fold,the scene epitomized decadent luxury

Zarek wasn’t smoking. A champagne flute stood near his hand, and his fresh appearance seemed to place him in a entirely different dimension from the others

Judging by his chip stack, he was winning significantly

Olivia, sitting beside him, appeared intoxicated, supporting her head with one hand, looking drowsy

Help Ms. Waldorf outside. She’s had too much to drink,Zarek instructed evenly

Charlotte and Rex stepped forward to assist

I’m fine,Olivia pushed their hands away

They tried several times but were repeatedly rebuffed

Ms. Waldorf” 

Rex hesitated to touch her inappropriately. Charlotte, thinking her gender made it acceptable, placed an arm around Olivia’s waist to help her up

Where do you think you’re touching?!” 

As if Charlotte had crossed some invisible boundary, Olivia violently pushed her away. Fortunately, Rex was there 

to catch her

Charlotte was startled by the reaction

Everyone at the table turned to look

Zarek’s expression cooled. He stood up, personally helped Olivia from her chair, and said simply, Take over for 

me.” 

Of course.” 

Charlotte maintained a composed facade

In truth, she wasn’t even sure who he was addressing

But since Rex didn’t respond, she did

Zarek escorted Olivia out of the card room

Rex gave Charlotte a worried glance, thinking she had never handled a situation like this before and should let him 

take over

Before he could speak, Charlotte had already gracefully taken the seat

She glanced at her hole cards, then at the community cards

Avoiding losses would be simplejust fold repeatedly. But she was representing Zarek, and constantly backing down would diminish his reputation

Guaranteeing wins, howeverthat was impossible

She quickly formulated a strategy

Outwardly calm and collected, she gave the impression of an experienced player

She played for about half an hour

Chapter 49 

Initially, she was cautiouschecking, folding, calling, raising only with good hands, and betting moderate amounts to avoid drawing attention. After playing a while, she grew holder, making larger bets. After winning several hands, she became increasingly confident. When she saw a potential royal flush, she almost went allin, causing Rex to frantically try to restrain her from behind…. 

Good lord, if you lose this, selling yourself to the CEO wouldn’t cover the debt

He asked you to substitute, not get carried away

Miss Whitmore, perhaps you should check on the CEO. I’ll take over,Rex said with a strained smile

No-” 

That wasn’t a suggestion. Go!” 

He firmly cut her off

Charlotte finally stood, looking regretfully at her cards

As she left the room, several wealthy men followed her figure with appreciative gazes. They hadn’t expected someone so strikingly beautiful and curvaceous to play so boldly. The prospect of getting her number and perhaps enjoying an intimate encounter brightened their moods despite their losses

Just a pretty secretarysurely Zarek wouldn’t mind sharing

Charlotte exited the card room

Recalling Rex’s words, she couldn’t help but smileThe CEO was alone with Olivia right nowonly a fool would interrupt

She knew it was just an excuse to get her away from the table

Grabbing a bottle of water, she drank while heading toward the stairs to the third deck. Her head felt fuzzy, and she 

wanted some fresh air

Stepping onto the thirdlevel deck, she approached the circular sofas. As she turned the corner, she unexpectedly glimpsed what appeared to be two people kissingZarek with his back to her, Olivia on tiptoes with her arms 

around his neck… 

Oh my GOD-!! 

Charlotte choked on her water in shock
