Bye, My Irresistible Love

Alice's POV: 

I rushed home the moment I parted with Scarlett in Charles's company.

"Alice, slow down.Keep your elegant image."

Christine advised while enjoying her tea time in the garden.She could not help but make fun of me when she saw me rushing over with a frantic expression.

"Mom, I have something important to tell you."

I sat down opposite Christine, not caring about my manners.

Christine put down her cup of tea and looked at me curiously.

"What happened?"

I took a deep breath and tried my best to keep a straight face.

"Rita is pregnant."

After hearing what I said, Christine was no longer in the mood for tea.She waved her hand, signaling to the butler to take the tea and desserts away.She looked serious.

I could not figure out what she was thinking at the moment.

"Mom, what do you think?" I asked inquisitively.

Christine pondered for a moment.

"Are you sure Charles is the father?"

"l...I think so."

The truth was, I was unsure.But now that I thought of it, what Scarlett had said made sense.

If the father was not Charles, who else would it be? Rita had been keen on marrying into the Moore family.She would not do anything stupid, would she? While I was in deep thought, my phone rang.

I looked at the caller ID, and my face turned white as a sheet.

Christine must have noticed the look on my face that she asked, "Is it Susan?"

I nodded in response.Susan's voice then came from the other end of the line, and it was aggressive like a shrew.

"Rita is pregnant.Charles must be responsible for it."

I forced a smile and replied, "We'll be sure to take responsibility if the baby is indeed Charles's."

"Whatever.The wedding should be held as soon as possible."

Susan hung up the call without even waiting for my response.

"They're definitely a family.All of them are bad- tempered."

My head was throbbing because of what just happened.

While I was massaging my temples, I decided to call Charles.I had to talk to him tonight.No matter who the father of Rita's child was, this matter must be solved immediately.

Charles' POV: 

When I entered the yard, the butler opened his mouth to speak but stopped on second thought.I raised my eyebrows and casually walked into the living room.

Just as I had anticipated, everyone was gathered there except the person I wanted to see the most.
