Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 285: James Went Missing 

Charles’ POV: 

Once we were at the airport, I escorted Scarlett to the security checkpoint, but I was reluctant to let her. She let out a sigh when she realized I didn't want to let go of her hand.

"Charles, if I don't go in now, I'm going to miss the flight."

"But, I don't want you to leave," I replied, embracing her.

"We're only going to be apart for a day."

Scarlett wrapped her arms around my neck and pecked my lips.

In response, I cupped her cheeks and kissed her.

At long last, I reluctantly let Scarlett go and watched her walk into the security checkpoint.

It wasn't until she disappeared from my sight that I withdrew my gaze and turned to Richard and Janet as they stood beside me.

"Why are you two here?"

"She did ask us to keep an eye on Rita's movements," said Richard.

After a brief moment of hesitation, he asked, "Shall we go to the company now, sir?"

I shook my head and walked aside towards the big LED screen, staring at Scarlett’s fright information.About ten minutes later, the info on the LED screen displayed that the flight to New York had taken off.I sighed and walked towards the airport's exit.

People were coming and going around me, and most of them walked in groups.I saw many men and women embracing each other.

The smiles on their faces were beautifully sincere.

Somehow, it made me feel like my heart was melting.Soon, I stopped at the exit.

"Is something the matter?" Richard asked as he walked up to me.

I chuckled at his question, staring back at him.

"Book the next flight to New York for me."

At first, Richard was surprised by my command, but he quickly gathered his composure.

"Yes, sir!"

Right after that, I called Amy and told her to cancel my schedule for the next few days.

Scarlett's POV:
