Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles' POV: 

Standing by the window quietly, I watched Scarlett leave.I could tell that she was still mad at me because I had not helped her father.

Thinking about it, I found myself drowning in regret.

Why hadn't I helped him back then? If I hadn't turned a blind eye to her father's dilemma, then there would not have been as many obstacles in my relationship with her.

Clenching my fists tightly, I made up my mind.I was determined to make her come back to me one day.

Scarlett's POV: 

I got home, but I could not fall asleep at all, despite the fact that I was tired.

Whenever I closed my eyes, I ended up thinking of Charles.

The next day, I went to the TV station, but I was absent-minded all day long, and when someone suddenly bumped into me from behind, 1 almost tripped and fell.

Nina, who was standing beside me, caught me right in time as she looked at me with a frown, feeling worried.

"Scarlett, are you okay?" I nodded in reply.

I then saw a woman rushing away, stomping her foot as though she was enraged.

"Who is she?" I asked Nina.

After looking at the woman for a while, Nina replied, "It's Emily."

"What happened to her?"

"She was supposed to host a program with Lucia, but…"

Nina clicked her tongue and hesitated for a moment before she continued, "I don't know what tricks Lucia played to get the sponsorship from Charles.Ever since she did that, Emily has been cast aside."

Her words felt like heavy stones pressing on my heart.

Although money was not omnipotent, it was indeed impossible to do anything without it.

It could easily change things for people who are trying to climb their career ladder.

Money made it easier for some people and harder for others.

Emily's case was a good example of how money could affect one's career.

The thing that seemed more ridiculous was the fact that it was Charles, who sponsored Lucia.

Several days passed since.

Charles seemed to have disappeared because he had not contacted me since then.

He only sent me a text a day before he was supposed to play tennis with Henri, reminding me of the time and place.

However, his words felt a little cold and brief.

So, I didn't reply to him.

But since I had already promised him, I did not want to go back on my word.
