Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV:

 "Anything else?" I asked in disbelief.

"We have to get up early to see Rita tomorrow," Charles replied coldly.

"Okay." I was confused.

I could not help but wonder if he returned just to make a point.

"I'll sleep here tonight," he added.

I came to my senses the instant I heard what he had said.

I wanted to ask him if it was really okay for him to stay here, but I decided to swallow my words instead.

"I'm afraid you'll oversleep because of the jet lag," he explained.

He must have seen the confusion on my face.

"Oh.Okay.I'd better clean the guestroom now." to stay here, but I decided to swallow my words instead.

"I'm afraid you'll oversleep because of the jet lag," he explained.

He must have seen the confusion on my face.

"Oh.Okay.I'd better clean the guestroom now."

As soon as I finished speaking, I turned around and walked over to my suitcase, ready to leave with it.

But then, Charles walked up to me and blocked my way.

"Why are you avoiding me?"

I looked back into his cold eyes and reminded him, "I'm just doing what you want.Didn't you ask me three years ago to keep a distance from you?"

As soon as I said those words, he slowly walked towards me, a hint of anger in his eyes.

"You stay here."

His words made me lose my grip on my suitcase, making it fall to the ground.

He then walked closer, and "I'll sleep on the sofa," he said flatly.

I could not help but hit my head and scold myself for being imaginative.

A dirty thought crossed my mind just now! Without another word, I picked up my suitcase and put it aside.

I turned my back on Charles and heard him take his clothes off and open the closet to get fresh ones.

A moment later, he finally entered the bathroom.

It had been three years since we got married.

The man of my dreams, my legal husband, was now only a few feet away from me.

Even though he had gone to the bathroom, his scent still lingered in the air.

It smelled so good, and it made me feel butterflies in my stomach.

I walked to the bedside and lay down on the bed.

I lay on my side with my body curled up and listened to the sound of running water from the bathroom.

When the sound finally stopped, I quickly closed my eyes and pretended to be fast asleep.

I even slowed down my breathing, so he would not notice I was just feigning sleep.

There were so many guest rooms.

Why did he insist on sharing a room with me? Perhaps it was because we had not seen each other for three years.

Nevertheless, this man was getting more and more unpredictable.

A deafening silence filled the air after a long while.
