Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 19: The Scandal 

Scarlett's POV: 

Mr.Walker's middle-aged driver got off the car and walked up to me.

"Good day, Miss Riley.May I have a moment?"

"Hi.Sure" I replied politely.

"Are you free at lunchtime? My boss is wondering if he could buy you lunch today?"

"Oh, I'm sorry.I have an appointment at that time,"

I directly refused and chanced a glance at the luxury car behind him.

"What a pity."

He did not insist.

"Well, maybe next time then.Have a great day, Miss Riley."

Then, he turned around and got back in the car.

I stood at the gate of the TV station and watched as Mr.Walker's car sped away.

I did not leave my spot until the car disappeared from my view.

I took a few deep breaths before heading inside the station.

I thought the invitations would stop after I refused that man twice.

But it was just the beginning of a roller coaster ride of dramas.

I found out that it had started rolling when I ran into one of the studio assistants in the bathroom in the afternoon.

She showed me some photos and news articles on her phone.

"Scarlett, look! Someone took a photo of you standing next to a luxury car and talking to a man this morning.There are many comments that said..."

The assistant did not finish her sentence.

The comments must be bad.

I took her phone and checked the news.

The headline jumped right at my face.
