Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 408: Steal A Kiss

Scarlett’s POV:

Charles’s words upset me.

I stayed alone for a long time and didn’t get in the car until I was completely calm.

“Are you okay, Caroline?” Simon asked with concern.

“I’m fine. Thank you,” I nodded and forced a smile.

“I just called Mr. Wilson and told him that you’ve won the land on the east bank. He was very happy, and he said that he would be back in a few days,” Simon informed me with eyes full of glee. He seemed to be in a very good mood.

I smiled, but deep inside, I felt immensely conflicted.

At this moment, my mind was full of what Charles had said.

When he passionately explained to me that he had nothing to do with Raina, my heart started racing, and I got butterflies in my stomach. I realized that he had been explaining to me that he and Raina weren’t engaged or together in any way, but I’d ignored him every single time.

Was it possible that he was telling the truth? Did we have a misunderstanding over what happened a year ago? Hitting the bottom of my thoughts, I quickly shook my head and began despising myself again. I couldn’t believe I just considered actually listening to Charles.

“Would you like to celebrate with me?” Simon suddenly asked.

Because my mind was in turmoil, I didn’t hear clearly what he was talking about. I just nodded.

The smile on Simon’s face grew bigger. He turned to Elena and said, “Drive us to the Mint Bar, Elena. I heard that bar was very famous in town.”

“Miss Wilson doesn’t like the Mint Bar. How about we go somewhere else?” Elena offered.

“It’s okay. Just go to the Mint Bar,” I muttered and waved my hand.

When we arrived at the Mint Bar, we got a table and ordered a bottle of wine.
