Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 283: I Won't Go Anywhere Tonight 

Scarlett's POV:

It was still morning, and yet I already felt out of energy because of Charles.Sadly, I did not have time to rest as I had a rehearsal at the TV station.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the Independence Day party, which the TV station was holding, finally commenced.I was set to perform in the second half of the party.

But for some reason, while I was waiting backstage for my turn, I was anxious and fidgety.

All of a sudden, Janet walked over with a phone in her hand and said, "Scarlett, it's a call from Alice."

My stomach was in knots as I answered the call.

"Mom, what's wrong?" I asked with a sense of trepidation. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Scarlett, why aren't you answering my call? Anyway, I'm so sorry.I failed to take good care of James..." Alice said dejectedly.

My heart raced when I heard that something had happened to my son.Although I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my throat, I forced myself to remain calm.

"Mom, take your time.Tell me, what happened to James?"

"James has been burning with fever since the morning.We couldn't bring it down.We're in the hospital right now," Alice anxiously answered.

"I see.I'll book a flight right away."

"Okay.Travel safe, Scarlett." I felt even more restless after hanging up the phone.

Just as I handed the phone back to Janet, a staff walked over and informed me, "Scarlett, it's your turn soon.Get ready."

"Coming." I asked Janet to book the air ticket for me.

Then, I lifted the hem of my dress and followed the staff.On the stage, the dim light gradually lit up.There I was, dangling about a dozen meters above the ground.As the intro of the music played, I was brought down from the top of the stage by wires that were strapped into my costume.My dress fluttered as I got down.I probably looked like an angel coming down from heaven.I started singing my lines a few moments later.My voice resounded across the hall and gave a heartfelt feeling to the audience.

However, I suddenly lost my balance and began to plummet to the stage.

The audience let out a collective gasp, and some exclaimed in horror.

"Oh my God!" I was more than ten meters high.

If I hit the ground, I would be either disabled or, worse, dead.

My life flashed before my eyes.

But before I hit the ground, I felt a sharp pain around my waist as a wire suddenly pulled me up.

I tried my best to regain my bearings.

Once I got a hold of myself, I danced to the accompaniment of drums and continued my performance as if nothing had happened.

The audience was in awe during my performance.

Once the song was over, they burst into applause.I took a bow and flashed them a huge smile.My legs were weak as I walked off the stage.I would have stumbled and fallen had Janet not caught me in time.

Tracy also rushed over to support me.

"Scarlett, are you okay?"

"The wire just pressed on my ribs, but I'm fine," I reassured while rubbing my side.

The staff also came over.

With a guilty expression, he asked what had happened and blamed himself repeatedly.

"We inspected the wires again before the show started.I really don't know how it happened.Luckily, you didn't get hurt.We sincerely apologize for that." I nodded in response.

I was not in the mood to talk to them as I was worried about my son.I turned to look at Tracy and asked, "Is Charles here?"

"He's outside waiting for you."

Not wanting to waste any second, I ran out of the TV station without even removing my makeup and changing my attire.

When I caught sight of Charles from afar, the uneasiness in my heart disappeared in an instant.Charles was staring at me.His intense gaze made my ears turn hot and red.I walked up to him and covered his eyes with my hand.

"Why were you looking at me like that?"

"Because I'm proud that my wife is gorgeous." Charles took my hand and pulled me into his arms.

He gave me a long and lingering kiss.He licked and bit my lips without even caring about the passersby.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw several figures nearby who had cameras in their hands.I immediately pushed Charles away.

"Charles, there are reporters! Let's get in the car first!"

Charles kissed my earlobe and asked, "Why are you so afraid of them? They're just gonna report how affectionate we are in tomorrow's news.It's no big deal."

I hit him on the chest and stared daggers at him.With a chuckle, Charles carried me in his arms and went to the car.We arrived at Garden Street not long after.

I was so exhausted that I went straight to the bathroom.I could not wait to take off my heavy costume and remove my makeup.But for some reason, Charles followed me closely.I stopped in my tracks and asked him, "Are you gonna use the bathroom?"

"No.I want to help you take off your costume.It's heavy, and it looks like you need my help."Charles looked at me passionately.

I felt hot all over as I knew what he was up to.

With a red face, I opened the bathroom door and hurriedly went inside.

"I can do it myself!" I insisted.

But before I could close the door, Charles pushed it open.

Because I was weak compared to him, there was nothing I could do but let him.

"Really? Well, I really think you need help." Charles squeezed into the gap of the bathroom door.

Once inside, he wrapped his arms around my waist.

I could only look at him with a helpless expression.

Suddenly, a sly smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.He slowly unbuttoned my clothes and took off my costume piece by piece.

At last, only my undershirt was left.I now felt so much better than a while ago.

Charles took the opportunity and slid his hand into my undershirt.

His warm touch sent a chill down my spine.He bent over to kiss me.

But instead of returning the favor, I held his hand and stared into his eyes.

"Charles, you received Mom's call this morning, didn't you? Why didn't you tell me that James is sick?" Charles fell stunned.

"Mom called you?" he asked in bewilderment.

I pushed him away with all my strength.I felt chilly the instant his warm touch left my skin.

"How could you not tell me such an important thing?"

Charles lowered his head and answered, "I didn't want you to worry too much."

I could not help but scoff.I felt betrayed.

Unable to take it any longer, I turned my face away from him.

Charles held my hand and expressed regret.

"Scarlett, I'm sorry.I promise it won't happen again.Please don't be mad at me anymore."

I could not help but heave a heavy sigh.

How could I have the heart to refuse such a cold and domineering CEO when he was acting like a spoiled child? I pretended to be angry and sternly said, "Just this once."

"Okay."

The smile on Charles's face returned.

Just like he had promised, he helped me take off my clothes and remove my makeup.Then, he ran me a bath and carried me into the bathtub.I was naked.

But for once, he did not make a move on me.

"Scarlett, you've lost weight.Please don't tire yourself too much."

"It's good to lose some weight.I want to be slender," I retorted.

Being nestled in his arms, along with the warm bath, brought joy and contentment to my heart.

Charles, on the other hand, seemed dissatisfied.

He pinched my waist and whispered in my ear, "I don't think so.I hope you gain weight, even a little.It'll feel so much better when you're fleshy."

I could not help but wonder if he would die if he did not flirt with me for a moment.

With my eyes narrowed in annoyance, I reached out to pinch his waist too as revenge.However, his muscles were so hard and strong that I failed miserably.I sighed in exasperation.

Suddenly, I remembered something.

"By the way, I've asked Janet to book me a flight to New York at six o'clock tomorrow morning.You can come when you're done with your work."

"Can't you wait for me for just one day so we can go together?"

"I can, but James can't.

For sure, he wants to see his mother as soon as possible."

"All right then.But you should make it up to me tonight."

"What? Why?" I asked confusedly.

"Because I have to sleep alone tomorrow night."

Without warning, Charles lifted me up and walked out of the bathroom with me in his arms.

He gently laid me on the bed and kissed me as if his life depended on it.

A few moments later, I felt his tongue force its way into my mouth.

I responded to his kisses with the same enthusiasm.

My mind was blank, and my desire was all that mattered to me at the moment.

His lips trailed down to my neck, where he licked and sucked on it.

I trembled and moaned in pleasure.

Charles chuckled and kissed me even harder.

Before I knew it, his hand was on my lady parts, stimulating it.

Suddenly, he inserted his finger in my hole, making me wet and aroused.

"Charles..."

I grabbed his arm, not knowing if I should push him away or pull him closer.

As a response, Charles became even more passionate in his kiss.

At this moment, he put my legs on his shoulders, lowered his hips, and rubbed his manhood into my beaver.

My body quivered in excitement.I unconsciously wrapped my arms around his neck.My body language was screaming that I wanted him now.

All of a sudden, Charles's phone rang, bringing us to our senses and breaking the air of romance in the room.

Charles turned a deaf ear to it, but I pushed him away.

With lust in his eyes, he bit my lower lip as punishment and got up to answer the phone.I vaguely heard Spencer's voice on the other end of the line.

Upon hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness it wasn't James.With a dark and gloomy face, Charles shouted over the phone, "I won't go anywhere tonight!"
