Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV: 

During the afternoon, I sat in my office reading some documents when Elena knocked on the door and came in. Caroline, someone is willing to invest in our project on the west coast. Here’s all the related information regarding said company. She handed me a stack of documents. I read through each document carefully. 

The company was going to invest in the project was named KD Group, and its CEO was someone called Corey Stanton. 

‘Corey Stanton? I’ve never heard this name before. Why did a stranger from a lesser known company suddenly want to invest in one of the Wilson Group’s projects?’

After a moment of contemplation, I looked at Elena and said, “Can you set up an appointment with Mr. Stanton for me?”

“Actually, he’s also asking to meet with you. He’s trying to schedule an appointment with you at May Cafe at ten tomorrow morning,” she replied. 

Surprised, I raised my eyebrows. ‘It seems that he’s well prepared,’ I thought. I nodded in response and said, “I see. Help me set up the appointment. I’ll meet with him personally.” 

Around seven in the evening, I finally finished all my work and got off duty. The second I walked out of the building, I noticed a limited edition black Maybach parked by the entrance. Charles got out of the car dressed in casual clothes, followed by Janet.

Upon seeing me, Janet’s eyes lit up. She waved at me, visibly excited. It had been a year since we last saw each other, but she hadn’t changed at all. She was still as childlike as ever. It was hard to resist the urge to smile when seeing her. But when I looked at Charles standing beside her, the smile on my face disappeared. He had been haunting me this whole time. Calmly, I turned around and walked towards my red Bentley

The following second, someone blocked my way. “What? Are you seriously going to pretend like you didn’t see me?” asked Charles. 

I looked up at him, flashed him a smile, and distanced myself from me.

 “How could that be? Who would ignore the famous, infallible Mr. Charles Moore?” 

“Miss Wilson, will you then do me the honor of allowing me to participate for the auction with you?” said Charle

 “Sorry, but I’ve already accepted someone else’s invitation. If you have nothing else to say, I’ll be on my way,” I replied, ready to leave. However, Charles reached out his arm to stop me. 

“Have you received the dress I sent you?” Annoyed and restless, I clenched my fists and gritted my teeth. Each time that I ran into him, I'd become impatient and I’d easily get affected by him. 

“Oh, that cheap dress you bought me? No offense, but it’s not even worth a second look.”
