Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 143: Confrontation

Charles’ POV:

Scarlett’s phone rang the moment she stepped inside the bathroom to take a shower.

I looked at the caller ID. To my surprise, it was Nate. I picked up her phone and answered it without a second thought.

“Scarlett, I knew you’d answer my call. Can we meet right now? I want to apologize for what happened last time.” 

I wanted to laugh. What he had said was funny.

“Scarlett?” Nate called Scarlett’s name tentatively when he did not hear anything from the other end of the line for a while.

“It’s Charles.”

Nate fell silent.

“To show your sincerity properly, I want you to deal with the media outlets by tomorrow morning.” I hung up the call as soon as I finished speaking, and a sneer tugged at the corners of my mouth.

Sure enough, Nate did as told. 

The next morning, I handed my phone to Scarlett to let her see the latest trending topic with her own eyes.

As I saw the confused look on her face while she read the news, I patiently explained, “It’s an apology letter from Nate.”

“What happened?” Scarlett asked with a frown.

“I think it’s his wedding gift for us,” I said in an unusually cheery tone. 

Scarlett eyed me with suspicion. “Really?”

I said nothing in response. I then put my arms around her waist and stroked her belly from time to time.

“Why do you keep doing that?”

I paused for a moment and asked, “Can’t I?” 

Without waiting for her answer, I stroked it yet again.

“It’s just that you used to caress the upper part,” Scarlett teased.

I could not help but chuckle at her words. Just as she said, I put my hands on her breasts and fondled them like I always did. “Did your breasts grow bigger?”  

Scarlett shook off my hands and grumbled coyly, “No…” 

“Maybe it’s because I’m good at massage.” I fondled them harder, and a feeling of satisfaction arose in my heart.

Scarlett’s face turned red, and she hid in my arms in embarrassment. “You’re so cheeky.”
