Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett’s POV:

I took a step forward and played the recording on my phone. 

Hearing that, Rita blushed with embarrassment. “What? Didn’t you say that you want to reconcile with me?” I asked, looking down on her.

Rita cleared her throat and said, “I probably mixed up the time by mistake. Anyway, now that you’re here, let’s talk.”

She then poured me a glass of water and handed it to me. “Here, have some water. We’ll bury the hatchet and become friends again, okay?”

“I don’t feel like drinking water now. My stomach doesn’t feel too good,” I replied with a smile.

The next second, the crowd began to grumble. “You’re such a narrow-minded woman! Rita has taken the initiative to make peace with you, and yet, you’re being unreasonably mean to her.”

“Well, that’s just how I am. What can you do about it?” I admitted frankly.

All of a sudden, I heard a voice dripping with sarcasm. 

“Scarlett is not as simple-minded as we thought her to be. She seduced Charles, got pregnant with his child, and forced him to hold a wedding ceremony. She is really…”

“Vicious?” I interrupted him, and finished his sentence.

Subconsciously, I touched the diamond ring on my finger with a smile.

“Is that your wedding ring? It looks so plain. Do you remember the ring that Charles bought for Rita? That ring was worth millions of dollars, but still he did not take it back from her even after they broke up,” someone in the crowd sneered.

“Well, that is true. The diamond in Scarlett’s ring is indeed smaller than the one in mine, and it lacks in luster,” Rita chimed in.

“Oh, yes. This simple ring is just like its vicious owner. It looks like Charles did not put so much thoughts when he selected your ring…” a group cried out, and Rita’s words were also becoming harsher and harsher as she continued to chime with them. 

“What a group of bitches!” Nina muttered, standing beside me. 

“What did you just say? Who is the bitch here?” a red-haired woman asked.

“The one who’s talking to me right now,” Nina said, showing her middle finger at the woman. 

“Damn you! You’re courting death!” The red-haired woman stood up angrily, but a person next to her pulled her back.

“Stop arguing. Charles might have just randomly picked that ring because he was busy with something else, something more important of course.” 

Rita was trying to act like she was being kind.

“Even though you two have broken up; you’re still wearing the ring that he gave you. Aren’t you ashamed of yourself?” Nina asked sarcastically.

“I just wanted to wear it because whenever I look at it, I am reminded of the time that Charles and I spent together,” Rita said in an aggrieved tone, lowering her head.

“I’m afraid you won’t be able to keep it anymore,” I said with a smile.
