Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 354: Lubricant 

Scarlett’s POV

“Calm down. If you suddenly had a heart attack because of me, how the hell would I explain that to Abner? Don’t worry, I’ve been soaking my feet with hot water. Besides, as soon as the filming is over, I change into thick clothes right away. I’ll get better soon,” I assured Nina.

My assurance, however, did not dispel Nina’s disappointment.

“You’re an idiot. Charles is your husband, not an ornament.”

“Nina, I live in his house, and he pays for the children’s expenses. How else do you think I can afford this golf club?” 

“Really?”

“Yes! Charles even pays for the kids’ and my meal every day.” Nina smiled with satisfaction.

“Very good. You should spend his money!” I breathed a sigh of relief. 

At last, Nina had finally stopped goading me into spending Charles‘s wealth. But just when I thought that conversation about Charles was over, she asked me another question about him again. 

“By the way, Scarlett, have you talked to Charles recently?“. 

“No,” I briefly answered. Charles and I had not talked nor seen each other since he left last time. Nina’s eyes widened in disbelief. 

“No? Shouldn‘t married couples talk with each other? Aren‘t the kids supposed to be a lubricant in their parent’s relationship?” 

“A lubricant? What do you mean?” 

“Doesn’t Charles video chat with them? You know, this is the best time to make amends and improve your relationship!” 

“We don’t need to video chat. The bodyguards live with me. If Charles wants to know what I‘m doing, he can just ask them.”

All of a sudden, Nina’s mouth fell open as something dawned on her. “Wait a minute. Did you two have a fight?”

How could I have informed him of my pregnancy? I resented him at that time. On my way back to the TV station, I was lost in thought. I could not help but reminisce about the moments when Charles and I were happy. But
