Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

I fell into a trance as I watched Charles’ back.

While I was locked up in the elevator, fear and despair had engulfed by heart like a hungry monster, making it impossible for me to breathe normally.

I only gradually calmed down after hearing a man’s cold deep voice. Thinking that it was Charles who saved me, I was having mixed feelings. 

'‘Why is he here?And how did he find out that I was trapped in the elevator?’

“Are you alright, Caroline? I did not know that you were in trouble till Elena called me.” Simon‘s concerned voice pulled me back from the trance. I looked at him with a smile to reassure him.

“I’m okay. I want to check the surveillance video and find out who did it.” 

Upon hearing that, Elena quickly helped me to the monitoring room. To my surprise, I saw that someone had destroyed the surveillance footage, leaving no clues. I felt my heart sink deeper and deeper. It was obvious that it was not just an accident. Someone had carefully planned this. “What should we do now?” Elena asked me, frowning. 

“Does he really think that I won‘t be able to prove it as long as he destroyed the surveillance footage?” I sneered before I turned around and walked out of the room. 

“Do you have a guess of who might have done it?” Elena asked me with a surprised look in her eyes. 

“Who fought with me recently? And who do you think has the intent to trouble me? It‘s sad that I don‘t have the evidence, though,” I said in a low voice, analyzing the situation. Elena nodded and said with a snort, “How dare he do such a thing inside the company?” “Why wouldn‘t he? I have gotten in his way, and it is only natural for him to warn me.” I narrowed my eyes, a murderous intent bubbling in my heart. 

“Should I mention about this to Mr. Edward?” Elena asked. 

“Don‘t say anything now. Let‘s wait till the matter is settled, okay?” I said with a helpless sigh.

“You don‘t look so good. Let me take you home so you can rest.” Elena’s soft voice and her kindness offered me a great deal of comfort. I nodded in reply, and left the company with her. Even after I got in the car, I felt that my legs were still quite weak. 

Although I appeared much calmer now, no one could imagine how scared I was when I stared at death’s eyes. After dropping me off at my house, Simon drove away. But before he left, he turned to me and said, “Don’t hesitate to call if you need anything, or just someone to talk to. I will always be on call.”
