Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

 I worked late into the night to check and verify the information and updates on the west coast project.I was poring over some data when Elena rushed into the room.

"Caroline, I’ve found out which school James is going to"

In an instant, my mind went blank, and I dropped the documents I was holding "Really?"I asked in a trembling voice.

"Yes.He goes to Chadwick Kindergarten.That’s great news, isn’t it? You can come see him there tomorrow.” Elena's face lit up with excitement 

"Finally, I can see my little boy."

I couldn’t help raising my hands and covering my face.

My eyes burned with tears of joy Early morning the next day, I jumped out of bed, washed up, and got dressed in an awful hurry.I couldn’t wait to see James On the way to his school, I was both happy and nervous.

"It’s been a year since I saw him last, Elena.Do you think he’ll remember me?" I asked, miserably failing to mask the worry in my voice.

"Of course he will.James is your son.He won’t forget you.Don’t worry,"

Elena comforted me.

Before long, I was in front of the school gate.

It was at least fifteen minutes before classes began, so there were many parents saying goodbye to their kids at the gate.

In the crowd, Charles’s handsome face jumped at me, and without meaning to, I locked eyes with him.

Damn it! What was he doing here? This wasn’t the best time for the world to turn small on us! Charles walked through the crowd and headed straight for me.

My mind immediately went into shambles.

If I tried to run now, he’d know that I was only pretending not to recognize him.

Charles stopped one meter away from me.He stared at me and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you here to see James?"

No, I couldn’t expose myself.

I gritted my teeth and answered, "You misunderstand, Mr.Moore.I’m simply passing by."

"I drive James to school myself every day now,"

Charles started and then continued, "In the past, I had promised my wife that I would take good care of her and our children, but I had broken that promise over and over because of my job.It’s such a shame that she’s not here anymore to see me keep my promises now."

A wave of sadness surged in my heart.
