Scarlett’s POV:
“Christine why do you think of me like that? Charles and I really love each other. Is it wrong for us to be want to be together?” Rita burst out in tears. people who didn’t new might misunderstand that Christine was trying to break up two love birds.
“Christine calm down. You need to take care of yourself” Michael looked at her with concern in his eyes.
Christine took the watermelon slice from his hand and threw it at Rita’s face.
“Love? Do you really believe it? It’s that just an excuse that you found to separate them. Do you even deserve to talk about love? you shameless women. Do you want know what kind of feeling it is?”
“Why don’t I deserve love? Is it because I’m sick?” Rita burst into tears, her whole body trembling. The watermelon juice mixed with her tears, as it trickled down her face. “I respect you because you are an elder and Charles grandma, but you cannot humilate me like this.”
“You ruined their marriage. I have been polite enough until now. If it was someone else, they would have striped you down ***** and thrown you out at the streets. And when that happens, people will see how shameless you are.” Christine was so furious at Rita looking at her innocently, that she was almost out of breath.
She patted her chest to calm down, before she pointed at Rita and continued, “How can you speak with so much confidence, after you have ruined their marriage. Charles has really spoiled you. Just get this shameless b**** out of my face.”
“Ma’am please.” The nurse walked up to Rita and ask her to leave.
“Don’t be angry, calm down yourself. If you would lose your temper like this, only you will be the one to suffer.” Michael comforted Christine, patting on her back to help her breathe.
Rita looked Charles, as if asking for help, but he totally ignored her. He was only concerned about his grandma.
“Charles, tell Christine that we really love each other.” Rita pleated with Charles.
“You should leave Rita. Grandma is still sick, don’t make her suffer.”
“Charles…”
“Ma’am.. ” The nurse again asked Rita to leave. Seeing that Charles had no intention of helping her, she had no choice but to leave.
After she left Christine finally calmed down, held our marriage certificates and smiled warmly.
Looking at her in such a manner, I couldn’t help murmuring, “You were pretending to faint on purpose, to stop us from divorcing, right?”
My voice wasn’t loud, but both the elders in the room had very sharp breathing. Charles begin to groan, as soon as those words left my mouth.
“Michael my head starts to feel dizzy, what’s wrong with me?”
“Don’t worry, the doctor said you will be fine after you have rested. It must have been the noise from earlier, that made you uncomfortable. Just rest for sometime.” Michael said at once.
He then looked at me and Charles, obviously asking us to step outside.
“Alright grandpa, please take good care of grandma. I have something important to do so I will be leaving first.”
In fact Charles was the one who had something important to do, but he asked me to go with him.
“The marriage certificate is still in Grandma’s hand.” I spoke before entering the elevators, still unwilling to give up.
“I have an important matter to deal with and it can’t be delayed.”
“Then why didn’t you sign it when were in the lawyers office.” Divorce was just one step away but my hope was shattered once again.
Now that I had lost the marriage certificate, it would be Impossible for me to divorce him anytime soon.
“Scarlett, is this the way how you treat your family? Did you not see grandma fainting before, just because we mentioned the divorce.” Charles looked sideways and casted a cold glance at me as if I was a selfish b**** who did not care about her own family.
“But she is just pretending.” I explain guiltly. Charles was even more furious now. “Scarlett how can you even say that Grandma, who has always loved you, is pretending to faint and lying to you. How sad would she be if she heard this.” he roared, glaring at me.
I stared back at him. I did not believe that he did not notice Christine was just acting. How could he lie through his teeth so confidently.
However I couldn’t argue with him about it now.
“This is all your fault. Why didn’t you sign it earlier.”
“I could not have. It was not possible for me to do it then.” Charles dialed down his aggressiveness as he leaned against the wall with his hands in his pocket. He seemed to be in a good mood. He did not seen like someone who lost his temper just a moment ago.
“What?”
“I said I won’t sign it because if I did the grandpa will kill me.”
“Why didn’t I know before that you were such a coward.”
“It’s called being smart.”
I gave Charles a disdainful look. As soon as the elevator door open, I walked out first.
“Tell me what side of me do you like.” Charles asked as he caught up with me and grabbed my hand.
I pouted and kept quite, glaring at him. I thought to myself that no matter what I would never get back with him.
Unexpectedly, Charles caressed my lips softly and teased, “you seem to be asking for a kiss from me, but unfortunately we are in a hospital and there are so many people around us, so I can’t full fill your wish right now.”
“When did I ask you for a kiss?” I became so furious that I had an urge to beat him up right there. He had always been so cold to everyone, except for Rita so why was he suddenly smooth talking to me. The image I had of him in my mind changed all of a sudden.
“All right I won’t tease you anymore. Does your face still hurt?” Charles looked at my cheek where Susan has slapped me. I was not feeling any pain, I just felt like it was not appropriate for us to be so close to each other at the moment.
“Don’t try to dodge.” I tilted my head to the side but he forced me back to face him. He tucked a strand of my hair behind my ears and observed carefully. “It’s healing. It won’t be visible if you wear makeup.”
“Can you let go off me now.”
“Sure.” He let go off my face and then held my hand. “Don’t get me wrong, but I am taking part in a program at your TV station so I wanted to drop you off.”
“You don’t have to, right? People will easily misunderstanded.” After all the media had just reported that Charles and Rita were going to get married. Moreover Rita’s wedding dress photo was also leaked to the public and Susan had cause the scene about it at the TV station. If he showed up with me to the TV station, then it would just be the evidence that people needed to accuse me of being the third wheel in their relationship.
“Let the misunderstand us.” Charles would not easily listen to me no matter what I said. He pulled me out of the hospital and pushed me into his car. After getting in the car, he leaned over to fasten the seat belt for me. When I didn’t cooperate he gave me a death glare. The driver was right in front of us, so I did not want to fight with him. I just wanted to get to the TV station quickly, so that I could get rid of him.
Soon we arrived. Charles and I got off the car. I quickened my pace, trying to keep distance from him to avoid gossip.
“Scarlett” but the next second I heard him calling my name loudly.
When I turned around I saw Charles standing by his car, dressed in signature suit. I could only think of one word… Noble. However when I recalled the way he had behaved in the hospital, I felt like I was an idiot to associate him with such a quality.
“What’s wrong.” I ask him.
“You forgot something.” he said with the smile.
I looked at him suspiciously as I approached him and ask what is it.
“It’s right here, come closer.”
As soon as I walked up to him, he suddenly kissed me.
By the time I realised what had happened he had already turned around and the left.
I could tell from his brisk steps that he was very happy. But I was so angry.
At the same time, Nina and Abner walked towards me.
Nina pointed at me in shock then pointed at Charles.
“Scarlett did you just…”
Abner’s expression darkened. Looking at them my heart started racing.
“Dammit what a jerk he is. Why did he have to kiss me here in public?”
