Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV: 

It was still morning, and yet I already felt out of energy because of Charles.Sadly, I did not have time to rest as I had a rehearsal at the TV station.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Independence Day party, which the TV station was holding, finally commenced.I was set to perform in the second half of the party.

But for some reason, while I was waiting backstage for my turn, I was anxious and fidgety.

All of a sudden, Janet walked over with a phone in her hand and said, "Scarlett, it's a call from Alice."

My stomach was in knots as I answered the call.

"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked with a sense of trepidation.

"Scarlett, why aren't you answering my call? Anyway, I'm so sorry.I failed to take good care of James..." Alice said dejectedly.

My heart raced when I heard that something had happened to my son.Although I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my throat, I forced myself to remain calm.

"Mom, take your time.Tell me, what happened to James?"

"James has been burning with fever since the morning.We couldn't bring it down.We're in the hospital right now," Alice anxiously answered.

"I see.I'll book a flight right away."

"Okay.Travel safe, Scarlett." I felt even more restless after hanging up the phone.

Just as I handed the phone back to Janet, a staff walked over and informed me, "Scarlett, it's your turn soon.Get ready."

"Coming." I asked Janet to book the air ticket for me.

Then, I lifted the hem of my dress and followed the staff.On the stage, the dim light gradually lit up.There I was, dangling about a dozen meters above the ground.As the intro of the music played, I was brought down from the top of the stage by wires that were strapped into my costume.My dress fluttered as I got down.I probably looked like an angel coming down from heaven.I started singing my lines a few moments later.My voice resounded across the hall and gave a heartfelt feeling to the audience.

However, I suddenly lost my balance and began to plummet to the stage.

The audience let out a collective gasp, and some exclaimed in horror.

"Oh my God!" I was more than ten meters high.

If I hit the ground, I would be either disabled or, worse, dead.

My life flashed before my eyes.

But before I hit the ground, I felt a sharp pain around my waist as a wire suddenly pulled me up.

I tried my best to regain my bearings.

Once I got a hold of myself, I danced to the accompaniment of drums and continued my performance as if nothing had happened.

The audience was in awe during my performance.

Once the song was over, they burst into applause.I took a bow and flashed them a huge smile.My legs were weak as I walked off the stage.I would have stumbled and fallen had Janet not caught me in time.

Tracy also rushed over to support me.
