Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 256

Scarlett's POV:

 

I yawned.

 

"It's late now. Why don't you take a shower and go to bed?" A shadow of a smile appeared on Charles's handsome face, his eyes turning sharp.

 

"Okay. Goodbye now." I beamed and poked his face on the screen. "All right then. Let's hang up the video call."

 

But Charles remained on the line.

 

I raised my eyebrows at him. "What? Do you want to watch me take a shower?"

 

"That's an incredibly tempting offer."

 

"Oh, you wish!" I glared at him and, from his background, found that he was still out and about. "Go back to work."

 

"Don't stay up late, okay? Good night." After saying that, Charles's face gradually enlarged on the screen, and then the screen went dark. He planted a kiss on the camera, and I could not help grinning.

 

"Good night."

 

After hanging up our video call, I picked up my clothes and went to the bathroom. Then, my phone beeped. It was a message from Charles.

 

"I miss you so much," his text read.

 

I slept soundly the entire night.

"Scarlett, do you want to have meals with your colleagues or have a table of your own?" Tracy asked.

 

I'm going to attract too much attention

 

frowned. "But what about me? I want to accompany you,

 

near ours. That way, you can still keep an eye on me. Besides, Tracy likes one of my colleagues. I would like to introduce them." I turned around to look at Tracy who flashed
