Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 280: The Disturbing Omen 

Charles's POV: 

Early in the morning, I was woken up by a vibrating phone.I picked it up and realized that it was Scarlett's.My mom was sending a video call request.I turned to look at Scarlett.

She was still fast asleep.So I took her phone, carefully slid out of bed, and went downstairs.Then, I pushed the answer button.

"Charles? Where is Scarlett?" Mom asked me with little James in her arms.

"She's still sleeping." I noticed that my little boy was crying and sniffing. I couldn't help frowning.

"Little James has been crying since he woke up this morning.No matter how much I coax him, it's useless.I don't know why.He's never been like this before."

As soon as Mom finished her words, James burst into tears again.I felt like someone drove a stake through my heart.

"Is he sick?"

"The doctor checked him out and said he's okay.Maybe the little guy just misses his mother."

Continuing to coax James, Mom put on a worried face.

"Dad..." James cried.

I felt sorry for him, but at the same time, I thought he was too clingy.I made a mental note to send him to a boarding school when he grew up.He needed to learn how to be independent.

"I'll go take him outside for a walk.Maybe a change of scenery would calm him down," Mom said.

"Okay. Remember to take bodyguards with you."

"I will."

After the video chat, I tiptoed back into the bedroom.Scarlett was still sleeping.The morning sun shone through the window, making her face look more delicate.My eyes fell on her beckoning lips.

Next thing I knew, I was leaning in and giving her a soft kiss on the mouth.

Scarlett slowly opened her eyes and kissed me back.Then, she seemed to think of something suddenly and asked in a panic, "What time is it?"

"It's nine o'clock." I glanced at the clock on the bedside table.

"What? Why didn't you wake me up earlier? I have a rehearsal to get to at the TV station today,"

Scarlett grumbled, jumped out of bed, and ran toward the bathroom.I sat back in bed and watched her go all crazy.I couldn't help smiling.

"Mom made a video call to you just now and I answered.” She asked if she could switch James's baby formula brand to a different one.

"Really? And what did you tell her?" Scarlett walked out of the bathroom, her toothbrush sticking out of her mouth.
