Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 227: An Unavoidable Love Crisis 

Charles' POV: 

It was fortunate that Scarlett recovered soon, and was set to be discharged from the hospital today.

Upon my arrival at the hospital, I saw her slowly walking out of the ward with Janet's help.I walked over to her side at once.

Janet took one look at me, and stepped back immediately.

Without Janet's help, Scarlett lost her balance and leaned towards me for support.

I used this opportunity to carry her in my arms.I also didn't forget to avoid touching her wounded abdomen.

"Charles, what are you doing? We're at the hospital!" Scarlett began to blush.

"Put me down! I can walk just fine."

"No," I said bluntly.

Along the corridor of the hospital, nurses and patients passing by were all looking at us.

"Wow! Mr.and Mrs.Moore are so romantic," they said.

"I'm sure the Mrs.Moore is the happiest woman in the world," said another.

I didn't mind showing off how much I loved Scarlett in front of the public, for I believed that our happiness was something others should see.

"Put me down, please," Scarlett whispered in my ear.

I stood in place and replied, "If you keep nagging me, I won't leave this place."

Upon hearing my response, Scarlett clammed up and buried her face in my chest.

She then wrapped her arms around my neck.

As I carried her out of the hospital, the sun shone down on us.

It felt warm and energizing.

Soon, the car arrived at the Moore mansion and slowly pulled over.

When I saw how Scarlett looked out the window, I couldn't help but chuckle.

"Scarlett, try not to sneak away whenever I'm not at home, okay?" I remarked.

Scarlett looked at me, visibly surprised.

"That thought didn't even cross my mind.You're so paranoid!" she remarked.

"Well, I hope you're telling the truth." I shot her a cold glance.

"But even if you do think of escaping, the house is now equipped with electronic locks, and I can control them remotely." Scarlett forced a smile as her mouth twitched.

"Oh...that's quite convenient," she said.

I nodded at her and smirked.Then, she stared at me and opened the door, ready to disembark from the car.

When I saw her having difficulties getting off the car, my heart ached.

In order to assist her, I immediately got off the car and went to her side to support her.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" I asked.

Barely had she taken a few steps, beads of sweat already formed on Scarlett's forehead, and some strands of hair stuck to her forehead.

Her face was pale and looked particularly frail.

She was like a porcelain doll that would break apart at the slightest touch.

A frown appeared on my lips as I carried her in my arms.

"Ah!"

Startled, Scarlett wrapped her arms around my neck and her eyes widened.

"What do you think you're doing? I can walk just fine!"

"I'll be sun down before you get to your room at that pace," I  said.

Ignoring her complaint, I strode into the Moore mansion.
