Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 171: The Truth Comes Out 

Rita's POV: 

Charles looked sullen as he approached me.

Despite that, I put on a smile and walked up to him.

"What did you just say?"

The sound of his voice was as frigid as the wintry winds.

I just kept smiling at him and said, "I'm worried about Scarlett's health, so I wanted to comfort her somehow."

Then, I tried to grab his hand, but he dodged my attempt to do it.

Charles scoffed at me.

"I feel like you were expecting that my wife would have a miscarriage."

The way he said it made it seem like he knew something.

Though I was flustered, I managed to keep my composure.I was quick-witted enough to come up with an excuse.

"Scarlett and I grew up together.Our relationship became a little unstable because of some misunderstandings in the past.But now that you're married to her, I sincerely hope that you'll be happy together.And considering something like this happened to her, it's only natural for me to worry about her.I'm only concerned for her safety; nothing more than that."

"Both Scarlett and the baby are fine.Don't even think of playing any tricks.I'd rather not send you to prison one day myself.But believe me when I say this, I won't hesitate when that day really comes,"

Charles stated without even glancing at me.

After he said that, he was about to leave.

'Scarlett's child is still alive? But how is that possible?' I asked inwardly.

I was so angry that I gnashed my teeth.

However, I didn't have much time left, so I immediately rushed forward to stop Charles.

"Charles, wait! I need to talk to you about something."

"There's no need for that," he answered frigidly as he continued walking away.

Anxiously, I followed him.

However, Richard stopped me.

I glared at Richard and shouted to Charles, "For the sake of the fact that I once saved your life, can't you please talk to me?"

"Nobody forced you to save me,"

Charles replied before entering the private room.

Blankly, I stared at his back and shook off Richard's hand.

"Let me go!"

And because I was annoyed, I spat on his face.

"You are such a dutiful lapdog!"

Richard looked down at me, frowning as he wiped his face in silence.
