Scarlett's POV:
After everyone had dinner, the family sat down in the living room to watch my TV show.
Once it was over, everyone left the room one by one, leaving only me with Charles.
That moment, his phone rang, and he answered it immediately.
"Scarlett is back, so I want to be at home with her. Let's meet some other day."
With that, he hung up.
I looked at him subconsciously, only to find him staring at me.
"What's up?" Charles asked indifferently.
"Nothing," I replied, shaking my head. I then lowered my head and twiddled with my hand nervously.
My heart would race and I would feel so nervous whenever I was with him.
I thought that I had moved on, but my heart would always melt into a puddle whenever I looked at him.
Noticing that Charles was staring at my clenched hands, I felt a little nervous.
The moment I got up to leave, he grabbed my hand.
"Why are you sweating?" He rubbed my palm with a faint smile.
Struggling, I tried to withdraw my hand.
He suddenly pulled me so hard that I fell into his arms like a weak kitten.
"What are you doing?" I asked as I struggled to get out of his arms, but I was no match for him.
His cologne was so distracting.
I couldn't help but think of the night we had sex. He had kissed me gently while calling my name over and over that night.
I was so lost in thought that I did not notice that he was getting closer and closer to me until I felt his lips meet mine.
When I came to my senses, I tried to push him away by placing my hands on his chest, but failed.
Charles kissed my lips overbearingly. He quickly pressed me onto the couch in one swift move, gasping for breath. I was able to feel his erection poking my skin.
His hands wandered through my body, and when I realized that he was about to reach inside my clothes, I quickly grabbed his hand.
"Stop it!" I was supposed to be blaming him, but I sounded like a spoiled child, who was playing hard to get.
"The bedroom or the living room? You choose." He continued to press his body on mine as he whispered those words in my ear seductively. Feeling his hot breath against my skin, my heart trembled.
My body tensed instantly and I was so nervous that I could not even bring myself to speak.
"Then... Let's do it here," Charles said with a sly smile, kissing my neck.
His lips continued to travel every inch of my skin, starting a fire with each kiss. I was worried that I might burst into flames if he continued to do it. "Wait!" I shouted anxiously just when he was about to slide his hand into my dress.
"Have you decided yet?" he asked, kissing my lips lovingly.
"Bedroom, the bedroom..." I had no choice but to choose one of the options, as I was afraid that people might walk in on us. Charles seemed to be determined, so I had no choice but to give him an answer, panicking.
