Bye, My Irresistible Love Chapter 162

Bye, My Irresistible Love Chapter 162-Scarlett’s POV:

A group of people with cameras rushed in. Judging from the cameras in their hands and excitement in their faces, they were reporters.

So they would not be able to take pictures of my face, Abner put his hand on my head and held me in his arms.

“Why is this gentleman holding Mrs. Moore? Mister, what’s your relationship with Mrs. Moore? How long have you been together? Does Mr. Moore know about you two?” a reporter asked.

“Mrs. Moore, are you here on a date with this gentleman? Does Mr. Moore know about this?” another queried.

These people kept asking me malicious questions. In a fit of anger, I broke away from Abner’s arms and stared at them with a fierce gaze.

“Stop inventing stories, or else I will sue you for slander!” I bellowed.

“Mrs. Moore, are you guilty about something? Could you tell us your relationship with this gentleman?” The reporters did not seem to care about my warning.

I protected my belly with my hands and took a step back away from the mob of reporters. However, they were unwilling to give up. They continued to aim the cameras at my face and took pictures of me without consent. The flashing lights were so dazzling that I could not open my eyes or else risk getting blind.

While I was at a loss, Abner reached out his hand and pulled me. I raised my head, and my eyes happened to meet Charles’s.

He stood out there and pursed his lips tightly. I could not figure out what he was thinking right now.

The cameras suddenly shifted from my face to his. The faces of the reporters lit up in excitement as they realized how big this news would be. “Mr. Moore, are you aware that your wife is having a tryst with another man?”

Charles did not answer the reporter’s question and just held out his palm to cover the camera.

Without a word, he walked to me, grabbed my hand, and looked at the group of reporters with a stone cold expression.

“Whoever releases this news will be facing the consequences!” he warned.

The reporters fell silent at once. Although reluctant, they had no choice but to put away their cameras and leave. With a frown, Charles pulled me from Abner’s arms. However, I grabbed his wrist and anxiously said, “Charles, wait…”

He stopped in his tracks and looked at me expressionlessly.

“Can you find a doctor for Abner?” I asked in a low voice.

“You really care about him, do you?” Charles let out a snort and added, “Don’t worry. I’ve arranged a doctor for him.”

Unexpectedly, we bumped into Lily on the way out.

“Oh my! Charles, what a coincidence! I didn’t expect you to be here. What happened back there?” Lily asked with a cunning smile.

“Fuck off!” Charles roared: His cold voice sent a chill down Lily’s spine. .

“Fine, fine. I won’t bother you anymore.” Lily smiled awkwardly. With that, she turned around to leave.

But before she could take a step, I hurried to stop her.

“Wait!”

Lily froze for a second. Then, she turned around and looked at me with a frown.

Charles held my hand and explained to me, “I really have nothing to do with her.”

However, I did not even spare him a glance. Instead, I looked at Lily in the eye and said in a serious tone, “Let’s talk,”

Charles did not stop us. We three went to an empty room to talk in private.

“What’s the deal with you and Rita?” I calmly asked.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” Lily feigned innocence.

“You don’t know who Abner is, do you? Then why would you hurt him for no reason? Did Rita ask you to do that?” I questioned her with a sneer at the corners of my mouth.

“Again, I don’t know what you’re saying,” Lily insisted. However, I saw a hint of panic flashed through her eyes.

I cast a glance at her clenched fists and chuckled.

“Nervous?”

“No… It’s-it’s just the room is a little cold.” Lily rubbed her hands together and pretended to be chilly.

“Really? Well, the AC is on here.”

As I spoke, the smile on my face grew wider. Lily’s, on the other hand, faltered.

“I’m-I’m frail,” she reasoned out.

“I don’t think so. The way I see it, you just don’t want to tell the truth. Why don’t we use a lie detector to detect your bullshit?” I turned to Charles and asked coldly, “Can you find a lie detector machine in thirty minutes?” .

He nodded.

“Sure. No problem.”

“Alright then. Lily the superstar, please wait for a few minutes while Charles here fetches the lie detector machine. It won’t be a problem if you really have nothing to do with Rita. But if you do… Then don’t blame me for being rude!” I warned through gritted teeth.

Although Lily was wearing exquisite makeup, it still could not conceal her agitation.

“No… Please don’t… I’ll speak! It’s all Rita’s idea. She manipulated me into doing it!”

Lily slumped into the chair, flustered.

Charles and I fell silent. The silence that befell among us was quite unnerving.

To our surprise, Lily got down on her knees, grabbed the hem of my dress, and implored, “Please… please let me go. My popularity rose when I was linked with Charles last time, but it disappeared not long after. Rita promised she could help me, so…”

I shook off her hand and dusted off my dress as if her touch made it dirty. “Next time, if you collude with Rita, popularity isn’t the only thing you’ll lose.”

Lily must have sensed that I would spare her no mercy, so she turned to Charles instead. “Charles, please let me go. I wasn’t thinking straight. Rita threatened me. I-I won’t do it again, I promised.”

Unfortunately for her, Charles was unmoved. “Wait for my lawyer’s letter,” he coldly said.

With that, he held my hand and pulled me outside.

Once we were outside of the private room, I took out my phone and turned off the recording.

Charles looked at me with astonishment. “You recorded it?”

“You can never be too careful with others,” I retorted with a smirk.

Impressed, Charles ruffled my hair dotingly.

Suddenly, something occurred to me. I slapped his hand away and asked with narrowed eyes, “What’s going on between you and Lily?”

Charles paused for a moment and then explained, “The photos you’ve seen were probably taken at a special location, so we looked intimate on some certain angles.”

I could not help but sneer in disdain upon realizing something. “Rita has put a lot of effort into making a rift between us.”

Charles turned to me with a helpless look on his face. “She uses every means to try and ruin our relationship.” .

I glared at him and said nothing. Suddenly, a smirk appeared on Charles’s face.

“By the way, what do you think is the most important thing in marriage?” he asked with a smile.

I pondered for a moment. Upon realizing what he meant, I lowered my head and slowly answered, “Trust…”

“Well, I think the most important thing is to be tolerant.”

“Infidelity is intolerable,” I replied crossly.

Charles looked at me with a frown and grumbled, “I didn’t mean that.”

I felt bad, so I did not say anything anymore.

Even though I said we should trust each other, I still could not help but feel upset, especially when I saw how close he and Lily were in the photo.

T even rushed back home without thinking last night. Despite saying that I was fine, the truth was, I was afraid that the rumor would turn out to be true.
