Bye, My Irresistible Love

After sending me home, Charles returned to the company for a meeting.His schedule was hectic.

I could not understand why he insisted on watching me go upstairs when he had other things to do and someplace to be.

Before I could put down my bag, the director of the TV station called and invited Nina and me to dinner.

It seemed we two got the chance to study abroad, and this was probably a send-off sort of thing.I must say, I was a little surprised.

The director seldom made time for these things.

If there was anything he wanted to say, he would always just tell us through his assistant.

Nevertheless, I did not think too much about it.I figured he was only trying to be nice for once.

With that, I changed my clothes and went to the restaurant.I was the first one to arrive at the private room.I had been waiting for a few minutes when I got a call from Nina.

"Scarlett, I'm sorry.I won't be able to make it to the dinner.There's something wrong with the program, and I'm trying to fix it" she anxiously said.

Without waiting for my reply, she hung up the call.

I felt a little uneasy when I realized that I would be alone with the director later.

Just as I was thinking about what I would say later, the door of the private room opened, and two men, who I did not expect to see, came in.

It was Nate and Mr.Valdez.I was stunned.Did the director also invite them? These people were evil.

To think, they showed up at the same time.

They must have ulterior motives.

While I was contemplating if I should leave or not, the director of the TV station called me, saying that something had come up.

Since Nate and my father were old friends, he decided to ask Nate to accompany me to dinner on his behalf.

After hanging up the phone, I realized that this was a setup.

Nina was meticulous and thorough.

How could something go wrong in the program? The director must have made trouble for her, so I would come here alone.

My blood was boiling in anger.

All I wanted at the moment was to stand up and leave.

All of a sudden, Nate put his hand on my shoulder and smiled slyly at me.

"Scarlett, aren't you gonna say 'hello' to us? You used to be a polite girl.Have you forgotten all the manners your father taught you?" I raised my head and stared daggers at him.

He was a man who was not worthy of respect.

What qualifications did he have to lecture me about manners? "I'm not in the mood for bullshit,"

I fired back.I wanted to leave, but Nate was pressing on my shoulder, stopping me from standing up.

"Scarlett, long time no see.You haven't changed.You're still as beautiful as the last time I saw you.Since you're already here, stay for dinner, will you?" Mr.Valdez invited, acting chummy with me.
