Pampered by the Demon

“If we can’t communicate well with each other because of this matter and misunderstand each other for a few days, make all kinds of noise, repeat our previous disputes, do you think it is good?”

Scarlett did not want to quarrel with him anymore, so she said patiently.

“Didn’t you start the quarrel first?”

“I am seriously talking to you. I didn’t mean to quarrel. The current situation is that our relationship is complicated…”

“How is it complicated?”

He didn’t understand what she was thinking.

From Mike’s perspective, taking her to all sorts of places, including bringing her to see her closest brothers, was practically telling the world that she was his woman.

When introducing her, there would never be a second name other than his wife.

Even a fool should understand, right?

But she was still not aware of it!

This made Mike think that she had always been pretending to be polite to him and wanted to leave him when she found the opportunity!

“I think the money and feelings between us need to be divided.”

Scarlett was used to being independent since she was a child, and besides her husband’s money, she did not think she was qualified to spend anyone’s money.

She had personally signed the divorce paper.

Right now, they could barely be considered a couple. If she didn’t like Mike, then it was fine.

The problem was that she liked him.

It was because she liked him that she didn’t want the relationship between them to be too materialistic.

No matter how far they could go, Scarlett wanted the relationship to be pure.

But Mike did not understand what she wanted.

“If it was because of that idiot Shyann, I would take her company tomorrow.”

If it wasn’t for Shyann, Mike felt that he should have already returned home with the little wildcat.

Maybe he could even take a bath with her and make a baby.

Shyann and Jett were responsible for this.

Mike decided that he would find a way to take revenge tomorrow.

Because of them, he ended up like an idiot, arguing with a little wild cat on the side of the road!

“When this problem with Shyann is solved, another problem will pop up. There are so many problems between us. Mike, I don’t want to get along with you in this way.”

Hearing her say that she didn’t want to get along with him, Mike’s expression suddenly changed, but then he heard her say it seriously.

“I like you a lot.”

Her words were like magic, making the time in the car stop.

Mike would never forget what Scarlett had said to him on this night.

“Because I like you very much, I want to try and see if I can turn this affection into love, ever-lasting love.”

After Scarlett said this, she blushed.

She could feel his burning gaze on her face.

Scarlett thought to herself, ‘You have to take advantage of your courage and continue to be brave!’

“I don’t want to feel inferior. Looking up to a man is worship, not love. I don’t want to feel inferior because of money.”

“I don’t think you are inferior.” At that moment, Mike looked at Scarlett and suddenly understood.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Just like what was written in that book.

“You think she is a pet, but she thinks she is independent. In the eyes of a cat, the owner is just a servant.

Cats are creatures with strong dignity.”

“You don’t think so, but it doesn’t mean that others don’t think so. I can hide these words from you, but I want to give it a go. Mike, do you really want to be with me?”

Scarlett lowered her head and said seriously.

“When two people are in a relationship, there must always be one who sacrifices first. But I was the one who always sacrificed. I know that it is because of my feelings for you, but it is always like this…”

She raised her head and looked at him with sparkling eyes.

“I will think I am very inferior.”

No matter what the dispute was, it was she who first put down her dignity and temper to seek peace with him.

Whether it was that night in Country E or now, if she did not take the initiative to look for him, he would abandon her.

Scarlett’s words pierced him like an arrow.

They stayed silent in the car. When Scarlett lowered her head, she seemed to be able to hear her heartbeat.

She had already expressed her thoughts clearly to him.

When feelings and money are mixed, it will always make a relationship complicated.

Mike was originally very dull, arrogant, and indecisive. It should be natural for her to give in to him.

But because they had too many unsolved problems, Scarlett always felt very awkward.

“I want to find a job to make myself valuable. I no longer live by depending on a man. If I like someone like this, I will be more confident.”

When someone like Shyann hurt her, she would put her dignity above others.

Mike went silent.

He needed to figure out what to do next.

If he told her the truth, according to his understanding of Scarlett, she would not let it go so easily.

If she knew that he was the one who caused the crisis in the Lauren Group and that he forced Allen to marry Scarlett to him, and even let her know about the matter of the divorce…

In Mike’s mind appeared a fire-breathing cat, as well as himself, who had been scratched till his face was covered in blood.

Shaking his head, he threw out this strange thought.

He didn’t want to take the risk before she was pregnant. He wanted her to stay with him longer.

It was considered light to be scratched by a cat. If it ran away, it would not be easy to catch it back.

However, Scarlett seemed to be in a blind spot now. If she were to go on like this, Mike would not want to see the future developments.

“Give me some time.” He needed time to properly straighten it out.

“How long will it take?”

“Three days.”

Scarlett nodded and thought, ‘Alright, the communication this time is pretty effective. ‘

She heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Fortunately, he was patient and listened to her this time. She also dared to tell him her thoughts.

Compared to the previous misunderstandings, Scarlett was very satisfied with such a result.

She gave him a brilliant smile.

“You see, we can also communicate seriously. We don’t need to hurt each other, and we can get along well.”

Mike, who had been touched by her innocence, also felt that the stone that was stuck in his chest had instantly exploded. He knuckled her head and started the car again.

“In the future, you are not allowed to eat junk food on the roadside. It is so dirty!” He still smelt the chili sauce on his face.

“It’s delicious … Oh, I’m a little hungry. Why don’t we eat steamed dumplings?”

This heartless little wild cat…

Mike knuckled her head a few times, and headed to the steamed dumplings.

Raising a lone cat would not only mean feeding her, but it also means making her skin smooth and bright and maintaining its wild nature. Now, the cat wanted to be independent and had to maintain its dignity.

Thinking of that, Mike had a headache.
