Bye, My Irresistible Love

Caroline’s POV:

I called Charles immediately.I needed clarification for what I just heard on the news.

"Hello?" The voice was soft and feminine.

Definitely not Charles.

Even without asking for her name, a part of my mind was well aware of whom I was speaking with.

It was Nevaeh, the woman that was just announced on television as Charles’ future wife.

"Please give the phone to Charles."

My lips’ pursed and I fought to keep my voice calm.

"I’m sorry but I can’t do that right now.Charles is in the shower, so he won’t be able to speak with you.I’m his fiancee, so you can tell me what you want and I will make sure he gets the message…"

The rest of her words faded away, a loud buzzing sound was the only thing I was cognizant of.

Blinking rapidly, I tried to calm myself but it was becoming a losing battle.

The possibility that Nevaeh was lying wasn’t lost on me.

She was probably trying to create a misunderstanding between Charles and I, but I also had to seriously consider the fact that she might be telling the truth. For the past few days, I had been battling insomnia.

Most nights I had to take sedatives before I was able to fall asleep.

Even when the sedatives worked and I slept off, my slumber was always restless and riddled with nightmares.

And the worst part was, I was now using a higher dosage of the sedatives before it would have any effect on me.

My symptoms didn’t end with the lack of sleep, unfortunately.I also had a case of severe migraines.

Not only that, but my stomach cramped a lot and the pain was so bad that I ended up retching on several occasions.

But the Wilson Group was in a more difficult state than me.

The company was suffering from internal and external problems, so my health issues would have to be ignored for the time being.

Simon called and asked me to meet him at the cafe.

After dabbing a concealer over the dark circles beneath my eyes, I pronounced myself ready to go.

Simon was already at the cafe, waiting for me.

He wore a dark suit and white shirt beneath it.

The suit brought out the color of his eyes and made him look more handsome His every move was suave and elegant, precisely the type of quality most women sought in a man.

Eventually, I made my way to him and plopped into the seat across from him.

"I’m here now.What do you want to tell me?" I asked without preamble, irritation lacing my tone.

"Caroline, you seem to have lost a lot of weight.Have you been skipping your meals?"

Simon’s eyes were wide with concern.I looked away from him without answering.

Our coffee was served a few seconds later.

My stomach churned when I took a sip of my coffee.

A weary frown creased my forehead and I glanced at my wristwatch, "We have to go back to the company and deal with work, so just get to the point."

Simon paused with the cup halfway to his mouth.

A wry smile twisted his lips.

"Caroline, do we have to be like this? I know I did something wrong before…"

"As I said, I have never blamed you.If you don’t have anything else to say, then I’ll be on my way," I interrupted Simon in a low voice and stood up to leave.

"Caroline! Charles is about to marry another woman.He will abandon you again for the sake of business interests.Such a man doesn’t deserve your love at all,"

Simon declared anxiously, his firm grip trapping my hand in his.I shook his hand off and sat back in the chair.

The corners of my mouth curled up in a bitter smile as I clenched my fists tightly.

It was a good thing I was sitting down because the force of the pain that hit my heart like a speeding truck would have knocked me off my feet.

"This is between me and him.It has nothing to do with you."

My voice was very even, not a single trace of the pain I felt evident in my tone.

"Caroline, don’t you understand? It doesn’t matter whether he will really marry this unknown woman or not.You will always have to fight for his attention with other women.When you left him a year ago, he was left unsatisfied, and that’s why he is being kind and doing everything he can to get you back.But once you are in his pocket, of what value will you be to him?"

"Enough! Stop it!"

His words rubbed salt in my wound and I just couldn’t listen to one more word.

But I shut him up too late.His words had already hit that mark and I was left bleeding from the force of their hit.
