Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles’ POV: 

Around twelve in the evening, I went back to the Moore mansion.It was already midnight, so everyone was asleep by now.I took James out of my parents’ room and went back to the master bedroom.

Every night, I slept with him.

The second I put him to bed, James woke up.

Upon seeing me, he rubbed his eyes and muttered, "Dad?"

I figured since he was awake, I could play with him for a little while, so I decided to pick him up.

James seemed delighted to play with me.And playing with him had helped relieve my stress.I was so glad to have my son back.

The day I thought James had fallen to the sea and died, I wished that I was the one who had died instead.

"Dad, where is Mom?" he asked, looking around.

"She's, um...she's lost somewhere.I'm afraid she won't be able to see us for the time being," I answered in a calm voice.

Deep down, I was suppressing my pain and anger, for I didn't have the heart to tell James the truth.

He was still far too young, and yet he had already gone through so much hardships.

Now that he had finally come back home, his mother chose to abandon him just to run away with another man.

As I lay on the bed, I stared at the ceiling, restless and unable to fall asleep.

Right now, all I could think of was Scarlett.I wondered what she was doing right now.

Was she sleeping in William's arms? Would they be as intimate as we used to be? All this time, I thought that Scarlett would belong to me for the rest of our lives.

The thought of her being in the arms of another man was driving me insane.

And the pain came to a point that I could barely breathe.

The following day, after breakfast, my father asked me to meet him at the study.He asked about my divorce with Scarlett.

"I'll arrange for someone to prepare the divorce agreement, and then send it to Scarlett."

I was a bit dazed, so I could only speak perfunctorily.

"Try to do it as soon as you can, Charles.Don't delay it like you did before.It won't do either of you any good if things go on like this."

He gave me a pat on the shoulder to comfort me.

This time, I didn't respond.

Once I had signed that divorce agreement, my relationship with Scarlett would be done and over with.

The thought of it broke my heart.

Later, in the company, I ran into Nancy again.
