Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV:

Yesterday, Charles didn't stop fucking me until it was midnight, so it was difficult for me to get up on time today. After turning off the alarm clock, I turned over, still half-asleep.

"Scarlett," Charles muttered before he kissed me. "You'll be late if you keep lying around in bed. Come on, get up! I'm heading downstairs to make breakfast," he added.

"Got it." Despite my reluctant, I got up.

After washing my face and brushing my teeth, I heard James babbling. I hurried to his crib to check on him.

In the crib, he was looking at me with bright eyes, reaching his hands out to me. "Ma! Momma," he mumbled.

My heart melted at how cute he was. Gently, I held my little angel's hand. "Do you want a hug, James?"

James flashed me a bright smile, babbling with excitement.

"You're so adorable!" I cradled James in my arms, coaxing him. He appeared to be sleepy, and he soon fell asleep.

All of a sudden, I heard a knock on the door. It was Tracy. She came up here to tell me that it was time to go downstairs and have breakfast.

As I looked at my baby in my arms, I was reluctant to leave him.

"I'll take care of James for you." Tracy volunteered to help me, and carefully took James from my arms.

With that, I went downstairs to the dining room after exhorting her to be careful.

In the dining room, Charles was serving breakfast on the table. The way he looked so attentive was so tempting to me. Beneath his rolled-up shirt sleeves, his long arms and slender hands were exposed. Even though they weren't that muscular, I knew that they were strong.

Realizing that my mind was wandering, I blushed. After composing myself, I went to the table to sit down.

Charles was looking at me expectantly, and his expression made me giggle. "It's really good. Thank you for breakfast, Charles."

"It's all worth it as long as you enjoy the food, my love." It was then that Charles sat down and ate with satisfaction. After a while, he suggested, "Hey, Scarlett. If you're not too busy, do you want to play tennis together this afternoon?"

"Oh, too bad. I'm a little busy lately because of the new program. I can't go," I responded, looking at him with regret.

"Oh," Charles replied casually. But I noticed the faint sadness from his eyes.

I moved my chair closer to his and held his hand.

Charles smiled at me, and asked, "What's the theme of the new program?"

"It's about a mother's postpartum journey," I answered.

"Sounds meaningful," he said.
