Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 461: The Birthday Gift 

Caroline’s POV: 

Even after we finished the dance, Charles kept his hand on my waist.

Because there were many guests around, I figured it wouldn’t bode well if I lost my temper.

"The dance is over.It’s time to let go," I reminded him.

Reluctance flashed through his eyes, but he still loosened his grip on my waist like I told him.I took a few steps back to distance myself from him.

But for some reason, I could still feel the warmth of his touch on my waist.

My face blushed and I felt rather hot.

Moreover, my heart was racing.

For a moment, it felt like I had returned to the past.

Those days with him were the happiest time of my life.

But even as I reminisced, I knew that those days were long gone and I could never get them back again.

I looked down, feeling conflicted and dispirited somehow.

"Happy birthday, Caroline."

Some guests suddenly approached me and greeted me.I forced myself to ignore the burning gaze from behind me and began chatting with the guests with a smile on my face "Thank you,"I said, raising my glass and taking a sip of wine.

Without knowing it, I’d had a few to drink and was starting to get drunk.

At this time, Elena came to me.

"There’s a surprise waiting for you on the second floor.Would you like to go upstairs and take a look at it?" she asked.

"What’s the surprise?"

This "surprise" piqued my curiosity.

"You’ll know when you get there."

A mysterious smile appeared on Elena’s face.

Despite my confusion, I followed her to the deck on the second floor.

When I got there, I saw that there were bright red rose petals scattered across the floorboard, forming a big heart.

There were also numerous balloons around the petals.

My eyes widened in shock.
