Bye, My Irresistible Love

Caroline‘s POV 

When i arrived at the hospital, 1 saw a familiar car parking at the gate.

With his long legs crossed, Charles leaned against the car door, a cigarette between his lips as he patted his parents for a lighter.

He must have seen me out of the corner of his eye, because he immediately put his cigarette away and walked over to me.

Before I could offer some form of greeting, Charles clasped my hand in his.

A shy smile bloomed on my face and tried to wrench my hand free, but Charles only tightened his grip.A smile tugged at his lips when he stared at me.

"You are wearing the ring.You‘re mine."

My smile turned into a flaming red hue and my lashes lowered.

Bravely, I returned my gaze to his and murmured "We‘ll go and see Grandma later.It‘s too blatant."

"Can‘t I hold my wife‘s hand?" Charles asked lightly and hugged me as we walked into the hospital.

‘Charles, Caroline, here you are."

Alice‘s voice broke into our embrace and I turned my head to see her standing outside Chastine‘s door.I quickly disengaged myself from Charles and hurried towards Alice.

"Why are you waiting at the door? Grandma…"

"Christine is fine.The doctor is doing a routine examination inside."

Her words were a soothing balm on the anxiety that struck me when I saw her standing there.A petite figure hurried past me and hugged Charles just before I opened my mouth to say something to Alice.

"Charles, long time no see."she shouted happily.

"Who are you?"

Charles frowned and pushed the woman away.

But the second I saw her, I recognized her.She was Nevaeh.
