Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV: 

Charles stripped his clothes right in front of me until he was naked.He then threw his clothes on the floor, and walked into the bathroom.

A while later, I heard the sound of running water.

"How can he be so shameless? How can he act like he was in his own house? We're divorced, aren't we?' Annoyed, I picked up his clothes from the ground and put them away.

I suddenly sensed a unique scent.It was the smell of tobacco, alcohol, and perfume, coming from his coat.Was that Rita's perfume? My heart sank to the depths as I thought of that.

No matter how much I tried, I could not control the anxiety that I was feeling in my heart.

All of a sudden, I heard the sound of the bathroom door opening, so I quickly threw his coat on the sofa, but it was too late.

When I turned around, I saw Charles looking at me with a smile.

There was just a towel around his waist.

Wiping his hair with another towel, he walked towards me.

His strong muscles and his defined abs were making my insides scream.

My heart was racing and I could not help but blush.

Panicking, I looked away.

Charles slightly leaned closer and looked at me seriously.

"Don't misunderstand.I didn't sleep with Rita.I was just pretending when I was with Rita and Nate in the past few weeks.Don't worry.I will not let them anywhere near me in the future."

"Why were you pretending?" I asked, forcing myself to calm down.

"I have always felt that your father's death was somehow connected to Nate, and I approached them to find hard evidence."

Upon hearing that, I was speechless.

My father's death left me emotionally crippled and caused me to divorce Charles.

"So you have been trying to avoid them lately? Is that the reason you haven't been in the city?" I asked.

"Yes.They keep looking for me every day, and it is really annoying! I don't want you to misunderstand me ever again!"

"Actually, there is no misunderstanding at all.We're divorced, so you're totally free do  whatever you want with whomever you want.I..."

"Don't say such things."

The next second, Charles pulled me to him.

Before I could react, I found myself in his arms.
