Bye, My Irresistible Love

Raina‘s POV 

After getting out of the car, I looked around the place with both excitement and apprehension. Dad looked at Nancy with a kind smile and said, “Nancy, I‘ll take you and Liam in. But I‘ll greet some business partners first before I formally introduce you to everyone.” 

Nancy nodded shyly in response. “Okay. Thank you, Mr. Hill.”

 She was a little shy. This was the first time she would attend a formal occasion as Liam‘s fiancee, after all. I, however, had something else in mind. Instead of going in with them, I stood by the entrance and said, “You guys go ahead. I‘ll stay here for a bit and wait for Charles.” 

“Raina, the guests here are rich and influential. Do me some favor and, for once, stop being so stubborn,” Mom advised worriedly. 

“Don‘t worry, Mom. I know what I‘m doing,” I assured her. 

Mom must have figured that nothing would change my mind, so she followed Dad and the others with a helpless sigh. 

I looked around the venue to look for Charles. To my disappointment, he was nowhere in sight. Although I was crestfallen, I did not forget who I was. I forced a smile and greeted the guests politely. Many people looked happy to see me. 

“Miss Hill, you look stunning,” a guest said. 

“Your outfit is amazing!” another praised.

 They did not hold back on their compliments, which satisfied my vanity. 

So many people were fascinated by me. For sure, Charles would be no exception. 

God must have read my mind. At this very moment, Charles‘s car came into view. My eyes lit up in delight. With a beaming smile, I hurried to greet him. 

Charles‘s car drove straight to the entrance of the lobby of the five–star hotel, in which the auction was being held. There were celebrities and businessmen everywhere. 

No wonder they adorned the already luxurious hotel to make it even more lavish. Charles got out of the car a few moments later and instantly attracted the attention of many. He was wearing a perfectly tailored black suit, making him appear taller and more sophisticated. Even if he was wearing a cold expression, his temperament captivated the hearts of the women. 

Holding the hem of my skirt in my hand, I trotted up to him to hold his hand. 

“Charles, you‘re finally here!” 

However, Charles avoided my touch with apparent disgust.
