Pampered by the Demon

Chapter 10 Pass By



He must have cast a spell on her. She didn’t want that! Scarlett tossed her head, hoping to get rid of the memories of last night.

She opened the wardrobe and was surprised to see that her clothes were still hanging in place.

She thought that he would set fire to the things she left behind, and maybe even sprinkle some salt to drive away ghosts?

Maybe he forgot to tell the servants to take it away. She was no longer bothered by this problem. Instead, she took out a pair of scissors to cut Mike’s clothes. Only in this way could she vent her anger.

She picked a beige dress and tried it on. But then it occurred to her that what Mike liked the most was white, so she put down the white dress and found a light brown dress with great difficulty.

She won’t dress up as he likes anymore.

When she changed her clothes and came down, the servants stopped what they were doing and greeted her respectfully.

“Good morning, Mrs. Abraham!”

Scarlett was a little embarrassed. She was no longer the hostess here. The way they addressed her made her very uncomfortable.

“Mrs. Abraham, before Mr. Abraham went to work, he told us to make your favorite lily porridge. It’s in the kitchen now. Do you want some?” The butler asked with a smile when she saw Scarlett.

“No, thank you. No need to trouble yourself.” Scarlett only wanted to leave this awkward place quickly now.

“Is it not to your liking? If you need anything, you can order us to cook for you. When Mr. Abraham leaves, he says…”

“No, I really don’t need it. Thank you.” Scarlett interrupted her. She hurriedly said goodbye and quickly left.

Mike waited at the company for the entire morning and did not see Scarlett.

Therefore, on this day, all the employees of the Abraham Group could feel that Mr. Abraham was in a bad mood, and everyone was in danger.

Scarlett’s phone broke after the rain yesterday, and he couldn’t contact her. Mike suppressed his anger and decided to catch her after he was done with his work.

In the evening, he went directly to the property he gave her after the divorce. He opened the door with the spare key that he privately kept and entered. He searched the house, but there was no trace of her. Only empty rooms.

He looked at his watch. It was five o’clock in the evening. He thought that she had gone out to eat. So, he waited patiently for a while. When it was seven o’clock, there was still no trace of her. He frowned.

He had never waited for someone for so long. He was dissatisfied that someone could break his rules, and even more dissatisfied with being controlled by others. Mike got up and left with a cold face.

When Scarlett came back tired, it was exactly 7:03.

After last night, she did not think that she still had a chance to turn the tables. She could not take down Mike. Instead of wasting time, she might as well have a showdown with Allen and see if there was any other way for him to take care of her mother.

The answer she received was a fierce slap, as well as Mrs. Lauren’s insults.

Allen was outraged and he asked Scarlett to bring her sister, Wendy, to see Mike the next day. Scarlett felt it was funny, but for her mother, she still had to agree.

That night, Scarlett had several intermittent dreams. Sometimes, she dreamed of a domineering man constantly pressing down on her. They slept and had a perfect experience. But sometimes she dreamed of him calmly forcing her to sign a divorce. Sometimes, it was her mother’s crying face, and sometimes it was Allen’s coercion.

Her life was a mess might tomorrow come or not. Even in her dreams, it would be the same.

“Mr. Abraham, Mrs. Abraham is here.”

Mike paused and his eyes filled with joy, but he pretended to be cold and proud as he said, “Let her come in.”

“Mrs. Abraham didn’t come alone. She also brought Mrs. Abraham and Wendy.”

Mike’s pen tilted on the document, and the signature slanted to the side. This time, he looked really cold.

“Bring them to the conference room!”

Scarlett was sitting in the conference room. Mrs. Lauren couldn’t help but walk back and forth. There was a young girl sitting next to Scarlett. She looked a little similar to Scarlett. Compared to Scarlett who wore no makeup, Wendy was delicately preened.

“When you see Mike later, introduce Wendy to him. She’s gentler than you and should be able to please him.” Mrs. Lauren glared at Scarlett, feeling disappointed!

“You are a good-for-nothing who has been driven away after two months of marriage. If you can complete the task, why would I be here?” Wendy said in a mocking tone. She was Mrs. Lauren’s daughter and was two years younger than Scarlett. She bullied Scarlett since she was a child. But she didn’t dare to do anything when Scarlett turned 18 because Scarlett was suddenly valued.

Scarlett divorced, and Wendy was the happiest one.

Scarlett lowered her eyes and pretended not to hear.

The Lauren family was really ridiculous. One daughter was returned back and they immediately sent the other. Unfortunately, that man only cared about money. They were destined to be disappointed.

She really should let these self-righteous people see what it meant to be temperamental. Thinking about Mike’s angry reaction, Scarlett felt a little happy.

It would be best if Mike flipped out immediately and chased them out. In any case, her mission was to introduce Wendy to him. Allen said that as long as she brought Wendy to see Mike, he would go see her mother once. She did not say that she will succeed.

She didn’t suffer losses in this transaction. She just felt a little uneasy.

Wendy pointed at Scarlett, “What are you so arrogant for? You’re just a loose woman that Mike doesn’t want!”

“Then what he doesn’t even take a glance at you? Wouldn’t that be even more pathetic?” Scarlett’s words choked Wendy.

“You little bastard. No one wants you!” Wendy waved her hand and hit Scarlett’s face.

But before she could touch Scarlett’s face, she was caught by a pair of big hands.
