Bye, My Irresistible Love

Charles's POV: 

Standing outside the door was the annoying Abner.

He had been pestering Scarlett all day long.

I tried to bite down my annoyance, but it surged out from the bottom of my heart.

The moment Scarlett opened the door and I saw Abner, I took Scarlett's hand and turned her to me.I kissed her deeply in front of Abner.

Her lips tasted so sweet.

They were like some sort of drug that I was totally addicted to.

I still could not believe how infatuated I was with her.

All of a sudden, Scarlett bit my lower lip.

Startled, I instantly let go.

She stared at me with sharp, furious eyes, like a wild animal ready to fight.

Even though I knew that she was trying to threaten me, I could not help smiling.

The more she tried to push me away, the more I wanted her.

I wanted her so much that I wanted to hide her from the rest of the world so that no other man could see her.

"Why are you in such a hurry, honey? You've just recovered.Abner can wait.Right, Abner?"

I held Scarlett in my arms and smirked at Abner.

Scarlett shook off my grip and snapped, "Stop it, Charles!"

I ran my thumb through her cheek and cooed, "You're so cute."

Then, I added deliberately, "You bit me so hard last night, too.Be gentle next time, or your dear husband will die young."

Scarlett bit my lip last night as well.It was not a big deal, but I was sure that it would piss off Abner, so I brought it up.

"Shut up!" Scarlett rolled her eyes at me.

"What? I don't need to be so serious in front of my wife, do I?"

I flashed her a grave look.

Ignoring me, Scarlett turned to Abner and said, "I'm sorry.Will you give me a few minutes? I just need to change."

Then, she turned around and stepped on my foot, but it did not hurt at all.

I shrugged at Abner as Scarlett walked away.

Abner looked like he was trying really hard to keep his opinions to himself, which almost made me laugh out loud.

He was wearing a white shirt, and his hair was combed up neatly.

After Scarlett was gone, he finally flashed me a polite smile and said good morning by way of greeting.

But I was not in the mood to exchange pleasantries with him.

I folded my arms across my chest and looked at him up and down.

He was obviously trying to woo Scarlett by coming so early in the morning and bringing some little brown paper bag of breakfast.
