Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles' POV: 

I was becoming more and more impressed with my own eloquence.I could always find some reason or excuse that Scarlett couldn't refute.I was so happy to see that she was rendered speechless.

"Okay, I will just think of it as your concern for me because of the elders.Now that I'm fine, shouldn't you go and see Rita? Even if it's just a headache or a cold, the doctor would forbid the patient from drinking.She has advanced liver cancer, and she secretly went to drink yesterday.Did she do it because you did not give her much care lately? Was she drinking to relieve her sorrows, perhaps?"

Scarlett said after a moment of silence.

My expression darkened all of a sudden, and I could not believe what I had just heard.

"Are you sure?"

"Abner saw it with his own eyes yesterday.How could it not be true?"

"Do you have any evidence?"

I couldn't believe her because Rita's condition did not allow her to consume alcohol.

Moreover, I believed that she would not risk her own life for a drink.

"Do you want me to show you photos as evidence? I'm not that jobless, and I am not like Rita to spy on people.Abner just happened to see her there and he called me out of concern.But if you really want the truth, then you can ask your sweetheart or run an investigation yourself.I believe that it will be a cakewalk for you to find out the truth."

I did not talk about it anymore, but I had already made up my mind to look into it.

Rita's POV: 

At around three in the afternoon at the hospital, I woke up and saw Charles walking into the room as he pushed the door open.

I had been looking forward to seeing him so much that when he came, my joy knew no bounds.

‘'Charles still loves me!”

"Charles!"

I realized that something was wrong the moment I called out his name.

He was approaching me with a deep look in his eyes, which indicated that he had only come there to question me.

Subconsciously, I tightly grasped the blanket, began to panic, and felt like something bad was about to happen.
