Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

The weekend had finally come. I could not wait to finally see Charles.

I asked Amy for Charles’s flight information in secret. Once I found out what time he would arrive, I went to the airport to surprise him. 

We immediately spotted each other in the crowd.

The moment Charles saw me, he strode towards me with a big smile. “Why are you here?” he asked. He was ecstatic but, at the same time, confused.

“Surprised?” I asked back with a grin.

Charles kissed me on the forehead. “Yes, I am.”

He took over all the housework after we got home.

Sitting on the sofa, I could not help but giggle at the sight of his busy figure in the kitchen. Happiness and contentment surged in my heart.

After dinner, we sat next to each other in the living room and watched TV.

I used his thighs as my pillow and let his fingers run through my hair.

All of a sudden, something crossed my mind. Spencer had called me a few days ago in the middle of the night, which perplexed me. 

At the thought of this, I looked up at Charles and asked, “Is there anything wrong with Spencer?”

“He’s fine. He was just drunk. You don’t have to answer his call in the future, especially in the middle of the night,” Charles casually replied.

Even so, I sensed the jealousy in his voice, so I could not help but tease him. “Didn’t you try to get me and Spencer together?”

“So you agreed at that time because I suggested it?”

I pretended not to see the displeasure on his face. “Well, I couldn’t turn down your kindness.”

Charles fell silent for a moment. 

“Grandma said she’d introduce you to someone,” he glumly reasoned out.

“So you asked Spencer to put on an act? What if he and I really got together?”

Charles looked down at me and smiled.
