Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 31: You Are Priceless 

Scarlett's POV: 

When Charles asked me how much he was worth to me, he was standing really close, and I could feel his warm breath on my ear.It was incredibly ambiguous.

I looked down at my toes, and whispered, "You are priceless."

Since he got the answer he wanted, he chuckled in my ear.

"But that was in the past,"

I added, looking into his eyes.

His smile froze as he turned around and forced me to face him.

"And now?"

His grip was so tight that his fingers were digging into my flesh.

I frowned.

It was too windy and I couldn't open my eyes.

However, my mind was particularly clear as I said the following words.

"You are not worth a cent."

Charles' expression darkened as he finally eased his grip on my arm.

"I want to be the priceless one.Now, and forever!"

"Charles, do you even hear yourself? Don't you think it's ridiculous for a man who is about to divorce his wife to want her to consider him as a priceless treasure?"

Shocked, I looked at him in disbelief, but deep down, I was also laughing at the absurd idea.How could he be so greedy?

‘'He already has a lover, and yet he wants to be important to me?'’ 

"I am not drunk, if that's what you're thinking.I know exactly what I'm talking about," he retorted with a serious look in his eyes.

"If you are sober, then why do you keep shuttling between two women? You are going to marry your sweetheart, and yet, you can't seem to cut off ties with me, either...Hmm..."

I was furious, but before I could finish my words, my lips were sealed with his as he kissed me forcibly.

Stunned, I did not know how to react, and when I saw a man passing by, I came to my senses and pushed him away.

"What the hell do you want from me, Charles? You asked me to come back to get a divorce, but you're also dragging me along and flirting with me.Are you still the same Charles Moore?"

"It is me! What? Don't act like this is the first day you know me!"

Charles' eyes were still filled with passion, but he seemed to be enraged because I had pushed him away.

"You're crazy!"

I was so angry that I could not even bring myself to fight with him.I turned around and was about to leave, but then...

"Yes! I'm crazy!"

Charles took a step forward and grabbed my hand.
