Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 101: The Attitude Of The Elders

Sarlett’s POV:

I was alone on the sofa when I woke up. But I got the sense that Charles slept next to me last night. Maybe it was a dream, but I could not be sure.

“Good morning, Mrs. Moore. Mr. Moore just went upstairs,” the servant who was cleaning said to me. I took a deep breath and nodded. I kept my face neutral, but deep inside, I felt ashamed and flustered.

“He told me to tell you as soon as you wake up to go upstairs and take a shower,” the servant added.

I did not understand why Charles always had to use such ambiguous words that easily gave other people the wrong idea. As blood rushed to my cheeks, I lowered my gaze and made my way upstairs.

I ran into Charles just as he was stepping out of the bathroom. He was drying his hair with a towel. He was naked from the waist up. The muscles on his torso were well defined, and his collarbone, for some reason, looked sexy and inviting. When he raised his head, his Adam’s apple slightly bobbed.

I averted my eyes and swallowed. “Will you please put a shirt on?” 

“No. It’s hot.” Charles put down the towel and glanced at me. “Why is your face sored?”

“It’s stuffy downstairs,” I snapped, feeling a bit embarrassed by how defensive I sounded.

“Why aren’t you looking at me?” Charles asked, confused and a bit annoyed. He pinched my chin and forced me to look at him.

Standing close to him now, I could see that his skin was still slick, and for reasons I could never fathom, he looked a hundred times more handsome to me when he was fresh out of the shower.

We looked into each other’s eyes for a long time. In the end, I lost the little staring contest and shook off his grip on my chin. I suddenly remembered that his arm had not recovered yet, so I walked past him and grabbed the hairdryer from one of the drawers in the bathroom. “Let me help you dry your hair.”

Charles beamed and nodded.

“Sit down. I can’t reach your head.” He was way taller than I was. I could only reach up to his shoulder.
