Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 201: Pestering 

Charles' POV: 

"Yes, Charles.Please go ahead."

Casting a glance at me from the corner of her eyes, Scarlett was also driving me away, but for some reason I felt that she didn't really mean it.

"Okay, I'm leaving, then."

Saying that in a gentle tone, I stood up, and lowered my head to whisper in her ear, "I don't have a driver to take me home, so please wait for me after you've had dinner.I would like you to give me a ride back.Besides, I might get drunk.You know how clients can be.right?"

Scarlett nodded in response.

With a satisfied smile, I gave her a peck on the cheek before I left.

I heard her shouting behind me in an angry voice, "You bastard!"

Once I was out of the private room, I took out my cell phone and deleted Nina's text.

It was thanks to her message that I was able to manage to rearrange my dinner appointment with my client and meet Scarlett at this restaurant.

In fact, I was looking forward to going home with Scarlett later.

Perhaps, I could use the excuse of being drunk to hold her in my arms and do something naughty.

Although my heart was filled with the excitement of anticipation, the reality of it was a lot crueler.

After seeing my clients off, I returned to the private dining room, but to my surprise, only Richard was there.

"Why are you here?"

"Janet asked me to pick you up."

Richard seemed to be nervous as he stood by the door.

"Where is Scarlett?"

Looking around the empty room, my expression darkened at once.She lied to me again! 

"She has already gone back to the Moore mansion," Richard replied.

Upon hearing that, my anger dissipated a little.

At least I would be able to see her at home.

I quickly left the restaurant and went to Scarlett's favorite dessert shop.

My mother was delighted to see the desserts in my hand when I got home, and she held out her hand to me.

"What a good boy!"

Feeling a little guilty, I subconsciously hid the box of desserts behind my back and said, "I'm sorry, mom.These are for Scarlett.I'll buy you some next time."

"You brat!"

She glared at me and added impatiently, "Go upstairs.Scarlett is in the nursery."

I walked up to her and gave her a hug.
