Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 163: Misunderstanding

Scarlett’s POV:

The next day, Charles and I went back to the Moore mansion.

“Did you two have a fight?” Christine worriedly asked the moment we entered.

I held her hand and shook my head to reassure her. 

“No, Grandma.”

“A lot has happened these past few days. But don’t forget to take good care of yourself, okay?” Alice advised with concern. 

“Yes, I will.” I forced a smile and turned to look at Charles.

He pursed his lips but said nothing. His expression was terrible. 

“Charles, you really are something. Just a few days ago, you seemed to have a good relationship with a celebrity,” Christine said with a snort.

“The photos were taken at an opportune moment. I didn’t even touch her,” Charles replied. He cast a glance at me when he spoke as if implying something.

“There’s a hidden meaning in your words, isn’t it? Was it because Scarlett had ‘physical contact’ with someone else?” Before Charles could respond, Christine hit him on the head. “Lily framed Scarlett and Abner. In fact, it’s all because of you why that happened. You’re the one to blame.”

Charles looked away. “I didn’t mean that.” 

Christine ignored the glum look on her grandson’s face and even scolded him. “As if Rita isn’t enough, now there’s Lily. Should I praise you for your charm?”

Charles let out a heavy sigh. “It’s my fault for making you worry, Grandma. I’ll handle it.”

However, Christine seemed dissatisfied with what he had said. “What you should do is reassure your wife and be a good husband to her. It has nothing to do with me.”

She then turned to me, and her expression changed in a blink of an eye. She held my hand and asked me about my condition.

I cast a glance at Charles and smiled at Christine reassuringly. “Don’t worry, Grandma. I’m fine.”

“When will you go back there? Your training should be over soon, right?” Alice asked concernedly. 

“Tomorrow. And yes, the training is almost over.” I glanced at Charles after I finished speaking.
