Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 117: Great Grandchild

Scarlett’s POV: 

Looking at Charles, who was getting off the sports car, I became nervous subconsciously. Noticing that he was also looking at me, I immediately lowered my head and entered the room without greeting him.

After all, I despised myself for running away.

As soon as I stepped inside, I felt someone grab the bowknot in the back of my coat, and froze.

I knew that it was Charles, which only made me more nervous.

“The knot was loose.” Charles’ low voice came from behind me.

I raised my hand subconsciously in an attempt to fasten it again, but he stopped me. “Let me help you!” he said. 

I was tense, hearing the faint sound of his slender fingers touching the fabric. When I realized that he was so attentively tying the knot for me, my heart began to race. I was just standing there like a piece of wood that was frozen.

“All right.”

Only when I heard his voice again did I come back to my senses. I was struggling whether I should thank him for a long time. And without saying anything to him in the end, I walked into the room. 

When I saw Christine sitting on the sofa, I went straight to her and said, “I’m back!”

As soon as I sat down next to her, she held my hand, and complained, “Scarlett, my dear, didn’t you miss me? Why didn’t you come to see me more often?”

“I’m sorry, Grandma. I’ve been very busy recently. As a token of my apology, I brought you a small gift. So please forgive me.” 

Holding her hand, I acted like a spoiled child as I handed her the box.

“Smart girl, are you bribing me?” Christine rubbed my nose dotingly with a helpless smile.

“Yes, so will you accept my gift?” I snuggled up to her with a smile. 

“Of course, I’ll accept it.” She returned my smile kindly.  I took out the brooch that I had bought for her, and helped her wear it. 

That moment, Alice entered the room.

Scarlett, you have such a good taste,” Alice praised me with a smile. “Yeah, I think so, too.”
