Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 120: Encounter

Scarlett’s POV:

As soon as Charles let go of me, my heart sank and I ran away.

Not long after, I got a call from him.

“If I didn’t let you go, you wouldn’t be able to run away from me,” he said in a voice that wandered between smug and sad. I froze but kept my gaze ahead.

“You’re wearing high-heeled shoes. Be careful. I don’t want you to hurt yourself, okay?” he sighed helplessly and reminded me with concern. 

I knew that he was still looking at me because he had not hung up yet. I resisted the urge to look back and left without a second thought.

I had been busy with the training program every day since landing abroad. Charles sent me messages from time to time about his family’s affairs.

Time passed by quickly, and the first wave of training sessions ended soon.

I had a few days off, but I did not want to go home.

“Scarlett, are you really not spending your time off back home?” Nina asked me again while preparing for her trip back home.

“No, and please don’t tell Charles that I have some free time. If he asks, tell him I’m still stuck with work here,” I answered firmly.

“Fine.” Nina sighed and flashed me a worried look. 

“Are you really going to be okay here alone? I’m worried about you, and to tell you the truth, I think you’re just delaying the inevitable.” 

I did not know how to respond to that. Just then, my phone vibrated. It was a message from Charles. 

“When will you come home?”
