Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 50: Getting Sick 

Scarlett's POV: 

Abner and I, along with some crew, were tasked to go to Seattle, Washington to conduct an interview with a certain famous personality.

Seattle was beautiful, and its weather was not in the extremes all year round.

Abner loved it there and even commented that he would want to settle down there someday.

The interview lasted for two days and ended right on schedule.

The interviewee's name was William, and he's an outstanding and well-renowned entrepreneur.

He was already in his 50s, but he still carried himself with the sort of dignity and elegance that drew women of all ages to him.

The night before our flight back home, William invited me, Abner, and the staff to dinner at a fancy restaurant.

"Scarlett, I heard that you've interviewed a lot of celebrities in the past.Is Rita Lively one of them?" William asked me with great interest while cutting his steak.

As if right on cue, all the heads at our table turned to me.My colleagues were familiar with Rita.They once saw her at the TV station looking for me.

"No, but I know Rita.One of my friends is very close to her." I decided to tell him the truth.

"How is she now by the way? Is she getting better?" William continued to ask.

"She should be out of danger now."

After all, Rita went to bars at nights now and got drunk.

"Is she married?"

"No, not yet, but many people like her."

I lowered my head and tried to focus on my salad.

My remark barely sparked interest from anyone at the table.

I supposed they did not know about Rita and Charles's engagement.

"Rita does have a lot of pursuers, but I remember her saying that there's already someone that she'll marry after she fully recovers,"

William said in a voice tinged faintly with disappointment.

"I think Rita will get what she wants."

After Charles and I divorced officially, he and Rita would be able to be together openly.

"Really? Then I should start preparing her wedding gift, " William said flatly and took a sip of his wine.

He seemed to be very familiar with Rita.

I hated to admit it, but I was actually impressed that Rita knew such an icon in the business world.I wanted to ask William how he knew Rita, but looking around and seeing my colleagues, I decided against it.

I did not want to seem gossipy.
