Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 384: How Did Things Get So Bad 

Charles’s POV: 

Under my gaze, Raina lowered her head in guilt.

"Charles, Hugo is asking for three hundred million dollars.He’s obviously trying to rip you off," Raina reminded me over and over again

 "How about you treat my Grandma yourself then?" I asked sardonically with a sneer at the corners of my mouth.

Raina fell stunned, but she regained her composure a few seconds later.

"I’m… I’m not a doctor."

"Then shut the fuck up and leave."

Without waiting for her response, I turned around to go to the ward.

Raina wanted to follow me in.But before she could take another step, Spencer stopped her.

"Why are you still here? Don’t you feel any shame? If you want to make yourself useful, go to Hugo and negotiate with him.I will admire you if you manage to persuade him to give us a discount or something."

He slammed the door in her face, not in the mood to talk to her anymore.

Now that he had gotten rid of Raina, Spencer clasped his hands and sighed in relief.

"At last, it’s quiet now."

I did not bother to see Raina’s reaction when Spencer gave her an idea.She would not be able to do it anyway.

At this moment, I sat on the chair by Grandma’s bed and worriedly asked, "Grandma, are you feeling better? Don’t worry.I won’t let Raina bother you again."

"I heard that Scarlett has come back.Can you… can you bring her to see me?" Grandma asked weakly.

As she spoke, her eyes were full of warmth and hope.

I was stunned, and bitterness filled my heart as I recalled what was going on between Scarlett and me.

But of course, I smiled at Grandma reassuringly and answered, "I will."

Scarlett’s POV: 

After checking on James, I went to follow the progress of the project I was working on on the west coast.

The scenery outside the car window passed by in a blur.

All of a sudden, Charles’s melancholic expression when I left crossed my mind, and the memories of our past consumed me once again.
