Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 387: You Have To Believe Me

Charles‘s POV: 

I finally got a chance to talk to Scarlett, but Raina kept calling me, which annoyed me out of my wits. When I hung up on Raina again, Scarlett snapped. “Is your fiancee calling to check on you?” She looked at me coldly, and I instantly panicked.

“A good man always answers his fiancee‘s calls, Mr. Moore. You should talk to Miss Hill. She must be worried about you. I‘m leaving now.” The moment Scarlett turned around, my passion trumped my reason, and before my brain could sound off the alarms, my body had already moved. I reached out and grabbed Scarlett‘s wrist. There was only one thought in my mind.

‘I can‘t let her leave me again.‘

“Scarlett... Please don‘t go.”

In a fit of desperation, I lost all control. Scarlett groaned, “Let go of me!” It was not until then that I realized what I had done, and I loosened my grip at once. “Oh, my. I‘m sorry. Please listen to me, Scarlett. I have nothing to do with Raina. You have to believe me.” Scarlett raised her head and looked at me with mockery in her eyes. “You want others to believe you, but tell me, have you ever trusted anyone?” 

“I…” 

My retort got stuck in my throat, and I suddenly understood the root of Scarlett‘s resentment. Although I had lost my memory and forgotten the events of the past six years, I could infer from the words of the people around me how much I had distrusted and hurt Scarlett. I could reasonably ask anyone else to believe me, but I had no right to ask Scarlett to do the same. 

“Let‘s go, Elena.” Scarlett turned around and walked away.

This time, I didn’t have the courage to ask her to stay any longer. I could only stand still and watch her leave. As the wind blew against my cheek, the feeling of abandonment broke my heart in a million pieces. My phone began to ring again, but I turned a deaf ear to it. “Mr. Moore, it‘s Mr. Hill,” Amy told me. I answered the phone and said expressionlessly, “Hello, Mr. Hill.”
