Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 95: Promise

Charles’s POV:

I pulled off the quilt, feeling amused and annoyed at the same time. I said, “Are you really my mother? Why do you have to say something like that?”

“If you don’t want to hear something like that, then give me a great-grandchild with Scarlett as soon as possible. Stop wasting my time,” Grandma backfired.

I chanced a glance at Scarlett. As expected, her cheeks turned bright red at Grandma’s words. She immediately lowered her head and avoided eye contact with me.

“Grandma, I promise there will be a great-grandchild for you, but for now, I want to get some rest. You and Mom should go home,” I replied.

Hearing what I said, Grandma began to pretend to shed tears. “That sounds nice and all. But Scarlett’s belly is still flat. I don’t have much time left. There’s a good chance that I won’t be able to see my great-grandchild.” 

“Oh, don’t say that, Grandma. You’re still very strong and healthy. You’ll live a long life.” Hearing our conversation, Scarlett hurried to comfort Grandma, “The great grandchild that you want is already on the way, Grandma.” 

“I don’t want a great-grandchild from that Rita woman! I don’t and will never consider her family!” Grandma’s face darkened, and she turned around to leave.

She walked out of the ward quickly.

“Grandma!” Scarlett attempted to run after my grandmother, but my mother stopped her.

“Don’t worry about her, Scarlett. Stay here and take care of Charles, okay?” Then, my mother left.

The ward finally quieted down, and the headache that I got from all the commotion finally eased. I rubbed my temples and heaved a sigh. Women were really difficult to deal with, and the most difficult one of them all was standing at the door in a daze.

“Why are you still standing there?” I said crossly. Scarlett closed the door, turned around, and walked toward me reluctantly. She pursed her lips and knitted her brows. She looked a little aggrieved. I knew that she wanted to leave. She had been unhappy since Rita showed up. She was not only difficult to deal with but also a jealous girl.

“Have you ordered the food?” I asked, trying to get her to focus on me.
