Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles' POV: 

Despite running into Rita, it didn't sully my good mood.

I wanted to pick up Scarlett from work on time, so I asked Amy to cram my schedule for me today, so that I wouldn't have to work overtime.

While I was focused on working, I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in," I said.

Amy pushed the door open and entered the office.

"Mr.Moore, Mr.Valdez is here to see you," she said.

"Let him in.By the way, Amy.One black coffee for me, and one with cream for Mr.Valdez," I ordered.

"As you wish, sir," said Amy.

It was then that Valdez entered the room with a smile on his face.

"Ah, Charles! Long time no see, old friend."

He was wearing a tailored suit today.His jet-black diamond watch was particularly eye catching.

"It has been a while, hasn't it, Valdez?"

Soon, Amy brought the coffee in.

"Take a gander at this.The coffee was bought from Colombia.This year's freshly roasted beans."

After taking a sip, Valdez nodded eagerly.

"My, my, Charles! This coffee is quite good.But I do imagine that you didn't ask me here for coffee, did you?"

I nodded at him and chuckled.

"Actually, I wanted to ask you about something.It's about Nate.Valdez put down his mug and said, "Ask away.I'll tell you everything I know."

Scarlett's POV: 

When I entered the company, I saw that William was already waiting for me on the sofa.

After flashing him an awkward smile, I led him to the meeting room.

When we passed by the washroom, I heard someone mention my name.

"How did that bitch, Scarlett, become a producer?"

The topic piqued my curiosity, so I stopped in my tracks.
