Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV: 

The atmosphere in the car was depressing, and the expression on Charles's face was so horribly icy.

I avoided his gaze the entire time and just looked out the window.

The surroundings outside blurred past us, showing me how fast he was driving.

Without really thinking about it, I grabbed on to the handrail on my door.

Suddenly, the car came to a screeching halt on the side of the road.

The force threw me so strongly forward that I felt the seat belt bruise my shoulder.

I screamed and turned to glare at Charles.

"What's wrong with you? I didn't ask you to pick me up.You should've just stayed with Rita if you wanted to.Why couldn't you leave me out of it?" I said crossly.

"We're still married, Scarlett.Why are you already flirting with another man?"

Charles muttered in a harsh, accusatory tone.

"What?"

It took me some time to understand what he was talking about, but after a few moments, I finally got what he meant.

I looked him dead in the eye and backfired, "I wasn't flirting.I was talking to a colleague.Honestly, I've had enough of your overreactions.We're as good as broken up.We're getting a divorce."

"You know we haven't gone through the formalities yet" Charles emphasized.

 "What's the difference? Besides, you're not in love with me.You're in love with Rita.It's pointless for you to try and fence me in."

"It has nothing to do with love.No man wants his wife to talk and laugh with other men."

"Then that's your problem.I have the right to socialize as I please."

After saying that, I kept my eyes fixed out the window and ignored Charles's murderous stares.

None of us spoke for a while until Charles just gave up and gunned the engine again.

This time, he drove even faster.

"If you want your Rita to die without anyone taking care of her, then be my guest and drive your car like you stole it," I reminded him sarcastically as I tightened my seat belt.

Charles flashed me a death glare, his eyes narrowing into slits.
