Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles' POV: 

"Charles, you've accompanied me for a long time. You really don't have to do this." Scarlett frowned at me, looking hesitant.

Her discomfort was obvious.

"Besides, I can get out of bed and walk unaided. I don't need too much care anymore."

Despite her words, I pressed her down to the bed and tucked her in patiently.

Scarlett replied to my gesture with a blank look.

I studied her gaze affectionately, and gave her a gentle kiss on her cheek.

"Scarlett, I don't want to be separated from you anymore."

Scarlett opened her lips to reply, but in the end, she didn't make a sound.

Then, she flashed me a sweet smile that melted my heart.

"You sleep for a while, alright? I'm going for a smoke."

As soon as I exited the ward, Janet approached me quickly and said in a low voice, "Rita's here, but Richard stopped her.He didn't allow her to get close to the ward."

She pointed to the elevator right after.

My eyes turned to the direction she pointed at.

What I saw next startled me.

Before, Rita often dressed herself in the image of a pure and virginal girl, innocent and untainted.

Today, however, her face was caked with heavy makeup, and she wore skin-tight clothes that left little to the imagination, giving me the impression of a cheap call girl.

"Charles!" Rita waved coyly at me, sending me a flattering smile.

"I'm not here to bother you, really! Linda was the one who asked me to see you on her behalf."

Richard was standing in front of Rita, a wary look on his face.

I glanced at him, to which he immediately nodded and made way for me.

Without sparing a glance at Rita, I spun on my heel and made way to the French window at the end of the corridor.

I refused to let Scarlett to be affected by Rita, not even the slightest.

With a flick of the switch, the lighter in my hands lit up the cigarette clamped between my lips.

"So… How's Scarlett?"

Rita's voice came from behind me.I took a brief drag, and then blew out the smoke.

Only then did I reply icily, "That has nothing to do with you."

"Look, Linda's innocent.

She was dragged down by her stupid niece.But I know you'll never be soft on them, just like how you treated me."

Rita's voice grew louder as she inched closer to me.Her tone became soft and coquettish, repulsively so.

"Actually… I just came up with an excuse to see you today.Haven't you ever missed me these days, Charles?"

I stood and watched quietly as Rita stretched out her hands towards me, about to wrap them around my waist.

Just as she almost touched me, I flicked the cigarette butt.

Instantly, the ash and sparks fell on her arm and burned her skin slightly.
