Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 550: No Divorce 

Caroline’s POV: 

Once I was out of the ladies’ room, I saw Charles standing outside. Considering the fact that the sound insulation here wasn’t that good, there was a chance that he heard everything just now feeling nervous, I whispered, “What are you doing here?

Charles chuckled. He didn’t mention anything about what happened earlier. He just took my hand and led me to the private elevator. 

“‘The food is getting cold. I’ve already asked them to get another table for us and serve something new. Let’s go upstairs to the private room and have our lunch, shall we?” 

‘Looks like he has no idea what happened inside the ladies’ room,’ I thought. 

Once we were inside the private room, Charles pulled a chair for me, on which I sat down. He sat across me, tapping his fingers on the table as he looked into my eyes and smiled. The way he smiled sent shivers down my spine. I stood up, ready to run away. But then, he grasped my wrist. 

“You did a great job earlier, Caroline.” He stared at my baby bump and let out a sigh.

“Looks like I don’t have to worry about my daughter getting bullied after she’s born. With someone as strong as you for a mom, she’s got nothing to fear!” .

 My face instantly turned red. I broke free from his hand and shot him a glare. He made it sound like I was a valiant tigress. Charles let go of my hand and asked, “Caroline, what gift would you want for New Year’s Eve?”

“A gift? I don’t want anything,” I pondered on his question. In all honesty, just knowing that my family was together and having the certainty that my kids would grow up healthy and safe was the best gift I could ever have.

 Charles nodded affirmatively as he looked intently at me. 

“Well, I want a gift, Caroline.” 

Looking at his smiling eyes made me feel anxious. I somehow worried that I might not be able to give him the gift that he wanted. 

“What do you want?” 

“Sell the island. A few days ago, one of my partners said that he wanted to buy it above market price,” Charles responded.
