Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 161: Gossip

Scarlett’s POV: 

A few days had passed since that incident, and while I was enjoying the short span of peace, something happened again.

Charles was involved in a scandal again.

According to the news reports, Lily would star in a new film, and Charles’ company was the investor of the film. And people were becoming more curious about the relationship between them because of what happened before.

While I was watching the news, the doorbell rang all of a sudden.

When I opened the door, I saw Rita standing outside.

“What’s up?” I asked coldly. 

“I already warned you that you will also be facing Charles’ ruthlessness one day. How does it feel to know that your husband is involved with another woman?” Rita said with a smug smile.

“Not bad at all,” I replied with an indifferent shrug.

“Lily slept with Charles,” Rita said with a smile, staring at me.

“Were you there when it happened?” I asked with a smile.

Hearing that, she handed me a photo of Lily and Charles entering a hotel. 

“If you don’t believe me, then you should take a look at this.”

I casually glanced at it and commented, “It’s a great photo, very high-definition, but I am afraid Charles is not as photogenic as you’d expect him to be.”

“Crazy bitch!” Rita spat in anger before she turned around and walked out of there.

Looking at her receding figure, I frowned. Although I believed my husband, I would be lying if I said that I was not concerned.

As the thought lingered in my mind, I decided to book a flight back.

“Would you like to play tennis with me?” she asked with a smile.
