Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles's POV: 

I was just done talking about cooperation with Nicholas Wood when I called Scarlet.

On the other end of the line, Scarlett was acting like a spoiled child, completely unlike her usual self.I was really curious as to what was going on.

When I arrived at the restaurant where Scarlett and Vivian was having dinner, James spotted me at once.

"Daddy, daddy!"

The little boy spread his hands to me excitedly, calling me with his tiny little voice.I took him lovingly into my arms.

"Did my little James have a good time today?"

I pinched my son's chubby face lightly, and he giggled happily.

From time to time, I eyed the door.

Soon, Scarlett and Vivian appeared at the door.I waved at them for attention.

Vivian didn't stay.

She bade goodbye to me before leaving alone.I handed James to Tracy, then took off my coat and gently put it on Scarlett.

Then, I hugged her and held her protectively in my arms.

"Are you okay...?"

Tracy had told me that Rita had yet again appeared to harass Scarlett.

"I'm fine.I won't let myself suffer anything because of her!" Scarlett declared, determined.

I smiled at her fondly and pinched her nose.

Right then, Scarlett craned her neck to look behind me.

"Hmm? Who's this?"

"This is Nicholas Wood, one of our Grandpa's old friends' grandson."

"Nick, this is Scarlett, my wife."

Upon his introduction, Nicholas stepped forward and held Scarlett's hand like a gentleman.
