Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles's POV: 

At half past five, I drove to the TV station to pick up Scarlett so that we could go to the hospital together to visit Grandma.I had been waiting for twenty minutes, but she still had not come out.

Thankfully, I saw one of her colleagues, Nina.

I asked her where Scarlett was, and she told me that Scarlett left a long time ago.I took out my phone and tried to call Scarlett, but she did not answer.

Then, Grandma called.

"Where are you? Scarlett hasn't had dinner yet.Come to the hospital and take her out to eat."

After hanging up the phone, I pinched the bridge of my nose and heaved a sigh.

Scarlett avoided me on purpose.

This morning, I had told her that I would pick her up after work and then we would come to see Grandma together.

Obviously, she turned a deaf ear to me and went to visit Grandma on her own.

On my way to the hospital, all I could think about was venting my anger on her.

But when I arrived at the ward, I could not believe what I saw.

Scarlett was gone.

"I don't understand why you won't just listen to me, Charles.Now you have to suffer the consequences,"

Grandma said sarcastically, looking at my disappointed face.

I stood beside her bed, struggling to school my features into neutrality.I was so angry at Scarlett that I thought about all the ways I could punish her.But I was afraid to show Grandma how I really felt because she would definitely laugh at me.

"Why didn't you make her stay, Grandma?"

I whined, and I instantly regretted it.

"She insisted on leaving when she heard that you were coming.Did you expect me to tackle her and pin her down?"

Grandma backfired.

I could tell that she wanted to tell me off about Scarlett again, but this time, she bit down her tongue.

"Someone threatened her yesterday by trashing her place with paint.I think she could be in real danger."

"Then get out of here and find her.No.Call her first.Find out where she is."

After I told her that Scarlett could be in danger, Grandma immediately urged me to call her and locate her.

I hesitated.I had already called her many times when I was waiting for her at the TV station and on my way to the hospital earlier.

She had not answered any of my calls.

I dialed again now, and the result was the same.I wanted to be furious, but dejectedness got to me first.
