Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

As soon as we got home, I sent a text to Charles, telling him that I agreed to attend the party. Soon, he replied, “Okay, then. We will host one on the 10th of next month.”

Putting down my phone, I took a deep breath. I knew that I would have to fight a battle soon. Time passed quickly, and it was the day of the party. 

As soon as I walked out of the TV station, I saw a black Rolls–Royce next to the gate, and Richard was standing beside it.

“Mrs. Moore, we are out of time! The kids have already gone to the party. Please get in.”

Saying that, Richard respectfully opened the door for me.

Once I sat down, I noticed a huge black gift box in the back seat. 

I gently opened it, and saw a custom-designed Valentino dress, which was simple yet elegant. The white velvet dress was covered in a layer of white organza fabric, and the skirt was made from a lacey material. I could imagine how it would enhance my slender waist. There were countless rhinestones and crystals on the dress, which made it look like the glimmering sky. 

I admired its beauty in silence for a long time before I finally put the lid back. 

“Is there a problem with the dress?” Richard asked nervously.

“No, it’s beautiful, but I don‘t think it would be suitable for me.” 

Turning around, I looked out of the window. We fell silent again.

I figured out that Charles must have arranged the dress, and I could read his mind just by glancing at it.

It was so much like a… a wedding dress.

And because of that, I was obviously hesitant to wear it.

The Rolls-Royce slowly arrived at the hotel.
