Chapter 222 Are You Flirting with Me?
Wendy wanted to hurt Scarlett.
But what she thought proved pathetic and stupid.
Before Wendy approached Scarlett, several of Mike’s bodyguards rushed forward and pressed Wendy to the ground.
“Scarlett, you little bitch!” Wendy shouted.
Before she finished her sentences, Mike’s bodyguards pressed Wendy’s head harder.
Mike walked to Wendy.
Wendy looked up, finding Mike so unreal. Even Scarlett looked so superior to Wendy.
Scarlett bent slightly, looking at Wendy in confusion.
“I really don’t understand it. Why do you still hate me till now?” Scarlett asked.
“I hate you! You are the lunatic’s daughter. Why do you have so much? Why?” Wendy shouted.
Till now, Wendy only hated Scarlett.
However, Scarlett no longer hated Wendy.
Only people on the same level harbored hatred toward each other.
While now, Wendy was homeless and pathetic.
Wendy’s clothes were disarranged and her face was dirty. She was shouting like a lunatic. Scarlett could hardly relate to Wendy with the one who bullied her in the past.
Scarlett looked at Wendy with pity and disdain.
The pity in Scarlett’s eyes hurt Wendy’s dignity!
Wendy could accept everyone’s sympathy, except Scarlett’s.
Wendy seemed to have thought of something. She looked like she had found something great.
She shouted in Mike’s direction, “Her mother is a lunatic! How could you bear to be with a lunatic’s daughter? She will give birth to a little lunatic!”
“Wendy, stop it. You are way over the line!” Scarlett was irritated. She couldn’t bear to hear Wendy curse her children.
Mike was also enraged.
He said, “I don’t care if she is a lunatic. You are forbidden to hurt Scarlett! Keep that in mind.”
Wendy hissed in dissatisfaction.
“Why!” she asked.
Mike sneered.
He said coldly, “I will not tell you.”
“Wendy, take care,” Scarlett said coldly.
After saying so, Scarlett leaned against Mike.
“I want to leave,” Scarlett murmured to Mike.
Scarlett didn’t want to see Wendy, whom she found repulsive.
Mike shrugged at Lucifer’s wife, implying that they would leave them to it.
Then Mike held Scarlett in his arms and left.
Lucifer’s wife and her men began to beat Wendy again. But Wendy found Scarlett’s happy face hurt her more.
What was more. Mike’s cold look scared Wendy more.
Suddenly, Wendy thought of something.
She shouted at Mike’s back, “Was it you? Did you plot that?”
Mike didn’t answer her and he was walking away.
Mike didn’t want to speak one more word with Wendy.
Wendy didn’t deserve his explanation.
“Scarlett has the lunatic’s genes. I saw her with another man behind you. Don’t you care?” Wendy shouted again.
Hearing Wendy’s slandering, Scarlett took her hand out of Mike’s arm.
She came back to Wendy and said, “Did you take the photos last night?”
“Scarlett, are you afraid? Soon, you will be infamous and lose everything like me!” Wendy said.
Wendy’s eyes were shimmering with hatred.
Scarlett shook her head and replied, “You are insane. How did I offend you? What changed you?”
Scarlett found hatred was not enough to describe Wendy’s feelings for her.
It was more like a kind of obsession, a sick obsession.
“You shouldn’t live in this world. The Lauren family has only one daughter. That is me. Why did you come? Why are you still alive?” Wendy said.
“I have never thought of becoming a member of the Lauren family because it is a shame for me,” Scarlett said.
In this family, the old and the young were equally ruthless. Scarlett’s memories of that family were dark and horrible.
Wendy was jealous of Scarlett’s identity, but Scarlett found it shameful.
“Without the Lauren family, do you really think that Mike would marry you? Who do you think you are?” Wendy retorted.
“It’s not up to you,” Mike said.
He came over and put Scarlett’s arm back in his arm. Then he glanced at pathetic Wendy in a condescending manner.
“I want to marry her. It has nothing to do with her identity,” Mike added.
These words were like a dagger to Wendy’s heart.
She repeated in disbelief, “I don’t believe you. Her identity has nothing to…”
Wendy looked like a lunatic and she kept repeating Mike’s words.
Mike had taken Scarlett away. Lucifer’s wife didn’t want to touch Wendy when she behaved like that.
Lucifer’s wife spat on Wendy’s face.
“How dare you curse Mike’s wife? You are so confident. Mr. Abraham doesn’t care about a woman’s identity when he is in love with her. You idiot!”
The crowd dispersed. Sometimes, a passerby would come over and gossip about Wendt, who was still repeating Mike’s words.
Mike said he didn’t care about Scarlett’s background…
Then Wendy couldn’t understand why Mike chose Scarlett over her?
She couldn’t understand it.
The same question was also bothering Scarlett.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
After returning to the car, Scarlett was still thinking about the last sentence Mike said.
Scarlett had to admit that Mike was like a hero after he said those to defend her.
However, Scarlett still had that question in her mind.
“When you married me, did you really not care who I was?” Scarlett asked.
“Yes,” Mike said.
“Then why did you marry me?” Scarlett asked again.
She was not gorgeous, pleasing, and soft enough. And she thought that her body wasn’t perfect. Scarlett began to doubt Mike’s taste.
There was Daniel in the driver’s seat beside Scarlett and Mike.
The two of them tried hard to keep silent, trying not to make the situation awkward.
For Daniel, Mike and Scarlett’s conversation was better than any drama. He didn’t want to miss a word.
After Scarlett asked the question, Daniel held his breath.
He was waiting for Mike’s answer.
Three seconds later, Mike opened his mouth.
He said, “I don’t mind if you are ugly.”
Mike wanted to say that he could be blind if Scarlett was ugly. But Mike was too proud to say that.
Then, the air in the car seemed to freeze.
Daniel pinched his leg hard to suppress his laughter, or he might lose his job.
Scarlett was also stunned for a while. She didn’t understand why Mike would say that.
After a few seconds, Scarlett finally came back to her senses. She blinked, looking so innocent.
“Mr. Abraham, are you flirting with me?” Scarlett asked.
In front of intimidating Mike, Scarlett was doing better than usual.
While Mike answered her with a knock on her head.
“Silly girl,” Mike said.
Daniel felt so awkward being the third wheel.
He thought that he had to thank his boss for training his stamina.
It was really hard for Daniel to stay cool when the atmosphere in the car was so uncertain!
