Pampered by the Demon

When Mike saw the picture of the embrace, the wanton emotions eroded him. He was incredibly jealous.

The first thing he did was to get to her home. He thought that as long as she came back in time and explained it to him, perhaps he could still forgive her.

But it took her so long to return, and she was still wearing clothes that another man had given her!

What did she do with that man? Why did she change her clothes?

Mike thought of the most unbearable possibility, and his expression became cold as ice.

However, Scarlett did not notice his anger.

“Have you eaten yet? Why isn’t your phone on?”

Scarlett asked as she walked past him.

She wanted to go to the bathroom, take a shower and change her clothes. The shirt was borrowed from Elaine, so she better keep it clean.

Mile suddenly grabbed her hand and dragged her forcefully. Scarlett was thrown onto the sofa.

“What the hell are you doing!” Scarlett did not understand why he behaved like this. Her arm hit the armrest of the sofa and it hurt.

“Where did you go?” he asked.

His voice was low and heavy, even colder than the weather outside.

“I met up with Miffy.”

“I sent someone to her bar, but I didn’t see you,” he said as he looked at her with a cold gaze.

“After we came out, we met another friend, so we had a cup of coffee together.”

“What kind of coffee would take three hours?”

Mike looked at her coldly. She was using such an innocent expression to play with him. If it wasn’t for this photo, he would still be kept in the dark by her superb acting.

“The process was quite complicated. I don’t think I can explain it to you clearly.” Scarlett did not know how to tell him.

After all, no one would believe that she became a close friend with her ex-childhood sweetheart’s current fiancée.

“I have plenty of time to listen to your explanation.” This was the last chance that he had given her.

There was a complicated emotion on Mike’s face. Now that the evidence was conclusive, he still wanted to hear her explanation.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Scarlett thought about how she ran away with a basket, so it was not strange that Mike would lose his temper.

After all, there were so many of his subordinates in the conference room. The two of them were still husband and wife in the public. This time, she only cared about venting her anger and not caring about Mike’s dignity. It was indeed a little inappropriate.

Therefore, she slowed down and explained to him.

“I went to sit at Miffy’s place for a while, then I came back and made some snacks and did some housework at your place, so it took a long time. If you are mad at my behavior today, you can deduct my salary.”

However, Scarlett’s explanation was a false impression for Mike.

Did she want to change the subject with just a few casual words?

“Really?” he lowered his tone a bit and took out the photo that attracted a dispute and placed it in front of her eyes.

“Then tell me what this is!”

In the photo, a man and a woman hugging each other, even if it was just taken from the side, it was enough to touch the heart – Mike smashed his office because he was so “touched” after seeing it.

He rushed all the way here to get her, only to see her come back wearing something different from the morning.

She couldn’t wait to leave him and elope with another man.

“Why is this here?” Scarlett recognized that this was the one that Wendy took from the cafe. She was speechless.

Wendy was simply unstoppable and wanted to seize every opportunity to frame her!

“There really is nothing between the two of us.” This was terrible. Anyone would misunderstand it from the angle of the photo.

“Nothing? Are you telling me that this photo was synthesized?”

He also hoped that it was synthesized when he first saw it.

But he immediately noticed that it was impossible

“It was not synthesized. He did hug me, but it was not what you think it was.”

She didn’t want to take the blame for seducing someone else’s fiancé.

“It’s not what I think? Then what is it? What do you want me to think if I see a photo like this with another random man?” Mike asked.

“Today, I saw his fiancée, Elaine, first. But then, when we were chatting, Wendy suddenly rushed out and poured coffee on me and got my clothes wet. So Wendy gave me her new clothes, and then Richard came.

“He also misunderstood Wendy because of this,” Scarlett explained patiently.

“Wendy was there at that time too. She definitely did not have any good intentions by giving you this photo. I don’t think she will prove it for me, however, if the media were to get this photo, I can ask the staff of the coffee shop to prove it. I promise that I won’t let the Abraham Group suffer any losses.”

Scarlett’s explanation did not calm Mike down, but made him even angrier.

At this point, she still refused to confess to him and was still quibbling!

“You said that your original clothes were wet with coffee.

“So where are your clothes?” he asked calmly but with anger. He wanted to see how advanced this woman’s acting was and what other excuses she would come up with.

Richard’s fiancée could find out what happened between Scarlett and Richard with just a little effort. How could she have a good chat with Scarl, whom she had only met once, and even lend her clothes?

Even a three-year-old child wouldn’t believe such a flawed excuse. Mike couldn’t believe that she actually used it to brush him off!

“Well, where are the clothes… Oh no, have I forgotten in the taxi?”

Scarlett came back in a hurry and she focused on the matter of Mike, so she couldn’t remember whether the clothes were in his house or in a taxi.

What a pity, those clothes were expensive.

Mike sneered coldly. Because she had repeatedly played dumb, he had completely lost trust in her.

Scarlett’s focus was still on how to help the Abraham Group to hide the scandal. If the media released this matter, it would definitely be detrimental to the Abraham Group.

She had yet to realize that what really angered Mike was the relationship between her and Richard.

“By the way, if the media really took photos of us secretly, I can call Elaine and ask her to help me clarify.”

Scarl took out her phone, but she was embarrassed to find that she had forgotten to save Elaine’s phone number.

“Stop pretending!” He couldn’t bear it any longer and grabbed her phone and slammed it hard on the ground. The broken phone was accompanied by the thunder and lightning across the sky, setting off his unpleasant face. Scarlett couldn’t help but shudder.

He stared at Scarlett and his expression was extremely cold. Scarlett was shocked by the anger.

She had never seen him like this.

Even if there were small conflicts between them, he would not be like this, not even when she mentioned the divorce.

He pinched her chin, “Wear the clothes I bought for you, then date other men and get photographed by others. Do you want the Abraham Group to become a joke?”
