Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

 "If you’re feeling guilty, just consider it as a gift to your kids.You can accept it on their behalf, and give it back to them once they’ve grown up." Charles remarked in a soft voice.

‘If that’s the case, why won’t he just give it to the kids directly?’ I thought.

Just as I was about to rebuke Charles, Grandma brought the three kids onto the stage.

James was being led by Grandma, and the twins were carried onto the stage by their nannies.Today, James was wearing a black suit.

The twins wore similar tailor-made clothes as well.

When they were next to Charles, people saw at a glance that they were wearing parent-child clothing.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Allow me to formally introduce these kids to all of you.They are the heirs of the Moore family.I’m here to announce that I’ll give them each a villa and one hundred million dollars’ worth of money!"

I still hadn’t recovered from the shock of receiving a surprise gift worth of ten billion dollars, and the Moore family had left me slack-jawed in awe again.

‘‘My kids are still far too young. Why did the Moore family give them so much money? If all of my kids aren’t wearing famous brands every day in the future, others might think that I’m embezzling the money the Moore family gave the kids.I cannot allow this to happen!’’ I was about to refuse, but James had already accepted the gift happily.

"Thank you, Great Grandmother, Great Grandfather.I wish you good health and happiness every day."

‘‘Who taught James to say those words?’’ I wondered.

I glanced over at Charles, suspecting that he was the culprit behind this.

"Did you teach him to say that?" Charles shrugged and acquiesced.

No matter how awkward I felt right now, these two things were set in stone.It was supposed to be Grandpa’s birthday party, but now, the three kids had become the stars of the show.

"Michael and Christine’s gifts are reasonable.If you ever divorce Charles in the future, you won’t have to worry about money ever again!" Icey remarked, joining in on the fun.

David pinched her hand weakly.He glanced over at Charles and remarked, "Don’t say such nonsensical things."

"What’s the big deal? You men are so petty! What? I’m not even allowed to mention the word divorce now? Surely Charles won’t behave like you, will he?"

Icey rolled her eyes at David, glancing at Charles provocatively

 "Sadly, I’m no exception," said Charles Now, Icey was rendered speechless.

David, on the other hand, was giggling beside her.

"Since you won’t allow us to mention the divorce, you need to be nicer to Scarlett from now on.Is that too much to ask?" Nina chimed in, staring at Charles sternly.

"She’s right, Charles! If you ever try to bully Scarlett again, we’ll help her escape from you.She deserves better than a jerk,"
