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."

"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."

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

"I want to eat with my colleagues. But I think I'm going to attract too much attention if I bring all you three with me. You accompany me,

a table of your own, someplace 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 me a confused look. I took her hand and pulled her

 

my ear. "Scarlett, I don't remember liking one of your colleagues. Care to fill

 

it. I'll explain later." I
