Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 271: Inexplicable Possessiveness

Scarlett's POV:

After listening to Vivian's words, I knew that any comfort would be useless. Wanting to cheer her up, I proposed, "How about we go shopping? The best way to make ourselves happy is to spend money!"

"Okay," Vivian replied, smiling softly.

And so, we went on shopping spree. Just like that, the matter from before completely vanished from our minds.

Tracy and Janet followed us obediently, with James in the stroller. James seemed to enjoy the shopping mall very much, cooing happily at the sights and sounds there. His doe eyes looked around excitedly, the curiosity in them evident.

At noon, we had lunch at a restaurant.

I ordered some eggs for James. I crushed them into fine bits before feeding them to him.

As I was feeding him, my phone vibrated. It was a message from Charles.

"Where are you? I'll pick you up."

I replied by sending him the location of the restaurant.

A while later, I spotted Charles standing at the door of the restaurant. He was wearing a simple white shirt, but he looked dashing all the same. Happily, I waved at him and called, "Charles, here."

To my surprise, he was followed by two people. Spencer and David were there as well, walking casually behind him.

"Spencer, David. You're here too."

"Hi, Scarlett. Oh, is this baby James? He really looks like Charles!" David approached James for a closer look at him, and then caressed his little face gently.

"I don't know, I think he looks more like Scarlett. Especially his eyes," Spencer disagreed.

"James inherited all of mine and Scarlett's best genes." Charles slipped in and joined the conversation. His tone was light, but there was a distinct smugness in them. He couldn't help brag about his son, apparently.

"You're right. James is the fruit of your love, isn't he?" Vivian echoed with a smile.

"There, Vivian is hot and smart. Spencer, you better marry her as soon as possible."

Spencer was stunned, unable to reply. Vivian took advantage of his silence and teased, "Don't make things difficult for him, now. He doesn't even like me. Besides, our families aren't equal in social status. We're not right for each other."
