Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles's POV: 

I leaned against the car, waiting for the end of the party while smoking idly.

All of a sudden, the ground began to shake beneath my feet.

Soon, I heard the screams of a panic-stricken crowd from inside the house.

Simon was the first one to run out of the villain fear.

More and more people began to flock out behind him.I looked around in the crowd, but I couldn't find Caroline and the kids.I was starting to get nervous.

Thereafter, I elbowed my way through the crowd and rushed into the villa.

Caroline and the kids must be terrified right now.Thus, I quickened my pace, wishing that I could be there with them in the blink of an eye.

The banquet hall was in shambles.

Tables and chairs had fallen to the ground in disarray.

It took a while, but I finally found them hiding in a corner.

Caroline was holding the kids and protecting them with her body as she leaned against the wall.

Seeing that she and kids were safe and sound, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you hurt, Caroline?"

Tears welled up in her eyes and she threw herself into my arms the moment she saw me.

"I sprained my ankle," she said.

Just then, the ground shook violently again.

I staggered backwards, almost stumbling to the ground.

Fortunately, my back pressed against a cold, hard wall.

"Don't be afraid.I'm here with you," I told her.

The sound of her cries broke my heart.I patted her back in an attempt to comfort her.

"Charles, what are you doing inside here? It's dangerous!" she asked, looking into my eyes.

"I was worried about you,"I said.

Not long after, Elena and Carlos rushed to our aid, carried the kids, and brought them outside.

Caroline held onto my clothes tightly and said, "We should leave.It's not safe here."
