Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 546: Live Separate Lives 

Charles’s POV

Caroline seemed to have no intention of coming back home. Because of this, my grandparents decided to take the kids to the island to be with her.

At last, they returned on Friday.

After work, I drove back to the Moore mansion dejectedly. As soon as I entered the house, the children rushed toward me.

The three kids circled me. The twins even clung to my legs in excitement.I stroked James’s head and bent down to pick the twins up.

“My boys,” I greeted with a perfunctory smile.

There was no doubt about it that I missed the kids very much. However, I was more concerned about Caroline. Even though my children were right in front of me, my eyes still searched for Caroline i And there she was, drinking tea beside Grandma in the living room.

When I finally saw her, I could not take my eyes off her anymore. We had not seen each other for a week. Caroline seemed to have lost some weight, but looked less depressed than before. It seemed that she had a great time on the island.

Mom was talking about something interesting that had happened recently. With her head lowered, Caroline listened intently to Mom’s story. She talked and laughed from time to time, just like in the old times

However, I knew very well that she was still upset about something. In the past, whenever I would come home from work, she would greet me with a smile and ask, “How was your day?”

Spencer told me to explain myself to her, and so did my parents

But, was it really necessary?

What was the point of explaining if she did not trust me in the first place?

“Mr. Moore, you’re back The dinner will be ready soon,” Janet greeted me with a tray of dishes on her hand, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

I nodded and looked in the direction of the living room again.

Now, everyone knew that I had returned and were all looking at me.

Except for Caroline

She did not even spare me a glance. She just held the cup of her tea and blew on it gently. Nobody could guess what she was thinking.

“Excuse me. I’m going to use the lavatory,” Caroline put down the teacup, stood up, and left. As I stared at her receding figure, I felt that she was getting farther and farther away from me. I felt a pang in my heart. Things were not supposed to be like this.

Just as I was about to take a step toward her, James stopped me and showed me the remote control of his toy car “Daddy, the remote control seems to be broken Can you help me fix it?”

I would have helped my son right away, but now was not the time for that. I looked in the direction of the bathroom and frowned

Fortunately, my father was quick-witted. He waved at James and said, “Come here, James. Let me fix it for you. With that, James run toward his grandpa with the broken remote control. I went to the bathroom without delay.

Caroline was washing her hands in the wash basin Noticing my presence, she glanced at me in the mirror and turned off the tap I hated it whenever she ignored me like this. I approached her and glumly asked.

“Did Nina call you?”

“Yes,” Caroline answered dully with her head still lowered, she took a tissue and wiped her hands with it

Dant you have anything to ask me?” I queried. Every minute that she was ignoring me was excruciating. There’s nothing to ask. You don’t have to explain your every move to me.” Her indifference made me feel as if what we were talking about was unimportant Without another word, Caroline threw the tissue into the trash can and turned around to leave

Of course, I did not let her. I blocked her way and looked into her eyes.

“There’s nothing going on between me and that woman. She suddenly went to my table while I was having breakfast—”

“Like I said, you don’t have to explain yourself to me. Also, I don’t want to be stressed because of you. So, you’re free to do whatever you want.”

“What do you mean?” I asked confusedly

“I mean literally I didn’t stay on the island for days just to have fun. I went there to recollect and think about things. Actually, I’ve been thinking about this matter for a long time. We’re a couple, and so what? As long as you don’t get in my way, I'll do the same for you.”

“You still don’t trust me, do you?” I fumed “Let’s stop talking about whether we trust each other or not. Let’s just live our own lives and not bother each other,” Caroline fired back I walked over to her, but she

took a step away from me. I froze for a second but then laughed sarcastically

“Not bother each other? How?”

“Oh, it’s easy Many couples live independent lives. We can do the same, can’t we?”

“Independent lives? Are you in such a hurry to mess around with other men? You don’t want me to get in your way so you want to get nd of me as soon as you can Isn’t that what you want?”

“I said that for your own good. Besides, I don’t have another man Don’t twist the truth,” Caroline retorted while

glaring at me with dissatisfaction With a sneer tugging at the corners of my mouth, I stepped forward and pressed her against the wall

“You want to push me to another woman, don’t you? Well, thank you for your generosity!”

In a fit of anger, I turned around to leave

Just as I was about to walk out of the door, I remembered something and turned to face her again. “Caroline, no matter how many women I would have, I would never give you a chance to mess around with other men!”

“Who do you think you are?” Caroline snapped. She must be so mad that her face was drained of color, and she looked like she would burst into tears at any moment, “I’m your husband!” I turned my back on her and walked out of the bathroom without waiting for her response

“Ah”

But just when I reached the door, I heard Caroline’s painful groan behind me. I turned around and saw her leaning on the basin while clutching her stomach. I rushed forward and held her up.

“What’s going on?” I asked in a panic

“My belly. It hurts “Caroline leaned weakly in my arms and clutched my shirt. Even though it was cold, beads of sweat were trickling from her forehead

I rushed her to the hospital at once

After the examination, Caroline was sent to the ward. According to the doctor, what had just happened was a physiological reaction caused by emotional instability All the elders gathered outside the ward and scolded me one by one.

“You brat! Caroline has just returned from the island kul you you made her so mad that she had to be rushed to the hospital. If you keep doing this, you’d better not see her again’”

“If anything happens to the baby, I will never forgive you!” Mom and Grandma blamed me for what had happened. Meanwhile, Dad just stood aside, lost in thought

“Well, don’t be so loud. You’ll disturb Caroune’s rest.”

It was only then that Mom came to her senses. She walked to the bed and comforted Caroline.

“Caroline, your health is most important. Try to calm down. I’ll ask Charles to stay here with you. Just call him if you need anything”

Caroline pulled the quilt over her body and sobbed, “I don’t want to see him.”

Mom opened her mouth to say something but decided not to on second thought.

Meanwhile, Dad beckoned me to go outside with him.

Before leaving the room, I glanced at Caroline, who had her head under the quilt, and sighed.

“Can’t you control your temper? Caroline is pregnant. She’s too weak to bear any stress!” Dad reminded me. Although he was calm on the surface, I could feel his frustration.

“You know that Caroline is emotionally and mentally weak right now, but you still made her upset. And now, she’s hospitalized because of you. Are you happy now?” Mom chimed in.

I said nothing and just lowered my head in guilt. I never expected that things would turn out like this. It was just that I was really annoyed at Caroline at that time. She seemed ready to be living separate lives. And at this rate, she might even divorce me any time. It was very irresponsible of her to say something like that. But then again, it was also my fault. I was too angry by what she had said that I forgot that she was pregnant and could not handle any stress.

Fortunately, both she and the baby were fine

Caroline’s POV:

When I woke up, I saw Charles sleeping on the edge of the bed.

Feeling my slight movement, he raised his head and checked in on me. “Caroline, are you okay? How do you feel now?”

He reached out to touch my forehead, but i dodged his hand instinctively. “What are you doing here?” I asked coldly.

“I’m here to take care of you.” Charles grabbed my arm with one hand and felt my temperature on my forehead with the other. “Don’t move.”

For a moment, he rested his slightly cold hand on my forehead and sighed. “Thank God you don’t have fever.”

As soon as he lifted his hand off my forehead, I moved slightly away from him. “Get out. I don’t want to see you.”

I thought Charles was going to insist on staying here, but he did not. Instead, he slowly got up and said, “I’ll go ahead and finalize the discharge formalities.”

As I watched him walk away, I lowered my eyes, and tears rolled down my cheeks uncontrollably.

Charles returned to the ward not long after. Just like he had promised before, he lifted me up from the bed, carried me all the way to the car, and drove me home.

On my way back, I received a call from Nina.

“It’s strange. I was going to make trouble for that woman to avenge you, but someone told me that EsastanEntertainment had already banned her. I also heard that she had reached out to other entertainment companies,but none of them accepted her. Could it be that it was your husband who did all this?”

“I don’t know” glanced at the man sitting next to me and pursed my lips.

Could it be him who did it? While I was in deep thought, Charles snatched my phone and hung the call.

“What the hell” I stared daggers at him and retrieved my phone

“What should I do to make you believe that I have nothing to do with that woman?”

“Nothing. You don’t do anything.” I looked out of the window and avoided his burning gaze.
