Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 54: His Concealment 

Rita's POV: 

In the ward, I greeted Scarlett with the sweetest smile I could muster.

She, however, just looked at me warily as if wondering what tricks I had up my sleeve.

I then poured her a glass of water, held her hand, and looked at her up and down.

"How have you been these past few days?" I asked with concern.

"What do you want?" Scarlett coldly replied.

I could not help but notice that her tone was similar to Charles's.

Just as I was about to pull her to a chair, I saw that there were hickeys on her neck.

My eyes glinted in anger, but I quickly adjusted my mood.

Instead, I gave her the glass and timidly said, "We haven't seen each other for a long time.I just want us to have a little chat."

Scarlett's eyes narrowed, probably in disdain, but no emotion could be seen on her face.I smoothed my long hair and decided to go straight to the point.

"I was the one who had ordered someone to throw paint on you."

It was only then that she reacted.However, her reaction was far from what I had anticipated.She looked at me and calmly replied, "Yeah, I figured."

"You figured? Didn't Charles tell you that? Oh no.I'm so stupid!" I exclaimed with feigned guilt.

"Scarlett, please don't be mad at Charles.He only did that to protect me.Please forgive me.It's just that jealousy got the best of me.Don't worry.Everything will be fine once Charles and I get married.We'll have your blessing, right?" I asked with doe eyes.

"Are you done?"

Scarlett put the glass on the table and left without waiting for my reply.

With a triumphant smile, I picked up the glass of water and slowly watered the flowers.

‘'How do you think you'll win against me? By your beauty? Or perhaps your place in Charles's heart? Oh, please.You will never win.”

Once Scarlett was gone, Richard walked up to me and draped a thin coat over my shoulders.

"Honey, why did you let Scarlett go so easily?" he asked with a frown "Don't worry.Sometimes, just one word is enough to win a battle."

I rolled my eyes at him.

This is why I detested Richard.

He would easily lose his composure.

How pathetic.

At that moment, I turned around and touched his face with the tip of my fingers.But in my mind, it was Charles, who was in front of me.

"Now, Scarlett knows that Charles hid the truth from her.I'm sure that that would be her last straw.Her beloved man always defends another woman.She must be very sad."

Meanwhile, Richard swallowed hard.
