Bye, My Irresistible Love

Scarlett's POV: 

Nate had not stopped pestering me, which was so annoying.

There was even a point where I suspected that he was following me.I stared at him coldly.

"I wasn't expecting to see you here.I'm meeting a friend at this restaurant."

He seemed to have read my mind from the way I looked at him.He immediately held up his hands in surrender and explained.He was undressing me with his eyes again, and it filled me with disgust.

"Really? What a coincidence."

"Sweetie, have you thought about what I proposed last time? If you agree right now, I'll have ten million dollars wired to your account immediately," Nate said smugly.

I stood my ground.

Even if he gave me everything he had, it would never be enough to pay for my freedom and dignity.

Nate reached out and attempted to grab my wrist.

I dodged his advance.

"Mr.Lively, as an elder, you should conduct yourself appropriately, and I don't think you're doing that by trying to touch me without my consent."

After that, I turned around and walked toward the parking lot to look for Nina.

But Nate did not heed my warning.

He caught up with me, grabbed my shoulder, and turned me around.

Then, he dragged me toward a big tree shading one secluded area of the parking lot.

Even if he was significantly older than I was, he was still stronger, and the more I struggled to break free, the tighter he held on.

"Let go of me, Nate! This is harassment! I'll call the police!"

"All this resisting is useless, Scarlett, and you know it.Give in now, or suffer the consequences,"

Nate scoffed.

Before I could respond, I heard a familiar pleasing voice.

"Good evening, Mr.Lively.Is there a problem here?"

Spencer said as he walked toward us.

Nate was stunned to see Spencer.

He obviously was not expecting anyone to come over and interrupt him as he tried to manhandle me.

He let go of me and faced Spencer.

I took the opportunity to rush over to Spencer's side.

"Are you all right? Did he hurt you?"
