In the night, he stood tall and straight, lost in thought or perhaps in memories. Scarlett quietly turned away. She didn't disturb him. But Wayne knew she was there the moment she arrived. He had his pride, too. Her attitude was crystal clear. If he kept pestering her, wouldn't that make him look desperate? There probably wasn't another girl in the world like her. The girl who once saved him right here. ... Scarlett sat alone on a bench by the corridor. Butler Ronald noticed her sitting by herself and asked, "Where is Master Wayne?" Scarlett knew, but she replied, "I couldn't find him." Butler Ronald could tell that Scarlett hadn't even tried to look for him and sighed, "I'll go find him." But then he remembered the old master intended to foster feelings between Wayne and Scarlett. The Old Master had sent Scarlett to find Wayne so they could spend more time together, right?He turned back."You should go!"Scarlett looked up."But I...""You are his wife. It should be yo
Scarlett fell into a long silence. She finally spoke, her words ambiguous, "Regret it? Yes and no." "In the current situation, I do have some regrets." If it weren't for that moment of impulse and unwillingness, if she hadn't given herself away, she wouldn't be desperately trying to escape now because of the baby in her belly. Without that night, she would have been one step closer to her dream. She could have started her internship at the Second District Hospital, and eventually become a full-fledged doctor, a chief physician. Her dream would have come true. Without that night, she wouldn't have felt a shred of guilt towards Wayne. As a wife, she had indeed been unfaithful. "If you didn't have the baby, maybe you could have..." "I don't regret it, because of this baby. At first, I wanted to get rid of him, but as he grew inside me, I could feel his heartbeat. Gradually, I became more and more attached to him, more and more in love with him. Now, I even feel like he's an angel
Belinda quickly let go of her grip and turned the tables, "Scarlett got furious because I told you she helped me. She hit me and insulted me. I had no choice but to defend myself."She positioned herself as the victim."Is that so?"Wayne had already heard from his man that it was Belinda who had lashed out in anger. She could lie without even blushing.His gaze was icy as he stared at Belinda.Belinda, unsure why he kept looking at her, feigned weakness, "You have to stand up for me!" Her shamelessness and ability to twist the truth were truly astonishing.Wayne had seen it all now.If Wayne hadn't arranged for someone to monitor Scarlett and see everything clearly, he might have believed Belinda's story."If she insulted and hit you, tell me, what exactly did she say?""She called me... she called me shameless, said I was trying to seduce you, blamed me for telling you the truth. She even scratched my neck with her nails. If you don't believe me, look."She deliberately tugged at he
Her tear-filled eyes were caught by Wayne. She quickly wiped away her tears and forced a smile. If Wayne hadn't seen it himself, he would have thought he was imagining things. She had cried. But why? Was it because Belinda had pulled her hair today and she felt wronged? Wayne walked in. "Do you want me to find a martial arts school for you?" Scarlett was speechless. What was he talking about? "Weren't you upset because Belinda hit you today?" Wayne sat down on the sofa, draping one arm over the backrest while unbuttoning his suit with the other. Scarlett replied, "She's not worth it." Wayne asked, "Then why were you crying?" Scarlett stubbornly denied, "When did I cry?" Wayne frowned so deeply that his brows nearly knitted together. This woman—seriously! He had clearly seen it. Would it kill her to show a bit of vulnerability in front of him? Constantly putting up a facade was truly annoying! He got up and walked upstairs. He didn't bother looking at her.
Scarlett froze. Wayne's expression changed in an instant. "Mark, you got the wrong person, your mom is over there." An elderly lady quickly picked up the child and apologized to Scarlett, "I'm sorry, the child didn't see clearly and mistook you for someone else. Your clothes..." Scarlett looked down and saw sticky sugar from a candy apple smeared on her pants. She smiled and said, "It's okay." Tonight, there were many people, all bringing their children to see the lanterns. It was understandable that the child made a mistake. Just now, Scarlett had clearly noticed Wayne's reaction and asked, "Do you really dislike children?" It wasn't that he disliked children. Wayne replied casually, "I don't like the idea of you having children." Scarlett thought of the child in her womb, lowered her eyes, and let her hair fall to cover her face. "What if I do have a child?" "How could I ever let you give birth to a bastard to disgust me?" After saying that, Wayne turned around. "Let's g
Was Scarlett regretting it? Regretting her past with that man? Otherwise, why would she have said what she just did?"I..." Scarlett opened her mouth, about to speak, but Wayne silenced her with a kiss.Suddenly, the lights went out.It was unclear whether it was a power outage or a short circuit.In any case, the power was cut off. Everything plunged into darkness. It felt like they were back to that night.Yet, they were doing the most intimate thing in the world.Scarlett, as if guided by some unseen force, closed her eyes and did not push Wayne away. Instead, she actively responded to his kiss.Wayne, encouraged by her response, demanded even more.They lost themselves in each other... kissing passionately.In that moment, it felt like they were the only two people in the world.It was a moment where thinking seemed impossible.Their minds went blank, and everything was controlled by the other. "We should break up. I don't love you..."The power came back on suddenly, the lights
Jackson was equally surprised. Wayne Gray was a well-known bachelor, not only unmarried but also never seen with a girlfriend. He always attended events with male assistants by his side. So, it was indeed surprising to see him suddenly show up with a woman. "What should we do then?" Bella Wells whined, clinging to her father. "You said you would introduce me to him." Jackson certainly hoped to have Wayne as his son-in-law. However, with a woman now appearing by Wayne's side, and without knowing her relationship with him, it was impossible to rashly introduce his daughter to Wayne. "Bella, you should go back for now. Let me find out more about the woman with him first," Jackson said. "Dad, you've been preparing for this for days, and I've been looking forward to it for so long. All this effort just to get you to introduce me to him. Now, if we give up, all our preparations will be wasted!" Bella was clearly unwilling. She had accidentally come across Wayne's photo in a fi
Scarlett Norman was in a hotel room close to the hospital where she worked after leaving the bouquet venue. This night was supposed to be the first night of her marriage. Looking at her reflection in a mirror, she straightened her clothes and chuckled slightly, thinking about what had happened earlier; No one cared where she was anyway. Suddenly, the door was kicked violently from outside, sending it crashing against the wall; before Scarlett could make up what was happening, the whole room went pitch black. scared out of her wits, she trembled, she could feel her standing. " who's there? .. is anyone... Before she could finish her sentence, she was slammed against the wall and then onto the table. the items clattered around the floor, and a gun to her head. a voice threatened "Don't speak! if I hear a word I shoot. in the dim light, she could only make out a man with a pair of fierce eyes. she perceived a strong smell of blood and she knew he must be injured. perha

"So, I really don't know. I wasn't trying to hide it from you."Bryan would have told Wayne if he knew! Maybe then, Wayne would let go of Scarlett. "You're angry because of this?" he asked.Wayne stared coldly at him. "Bryan, do you think I'm an idiot? She doesn't know who her own man is? Now, to reunite with her lover, she's been spying on me, pushing me into Belinda' arms, and using every trick in the book. And you say she doesn't know who her man is?"Bryan listened to Wayne's words and realized he had a point. How could Scarlett not know who her man was?So why was she hiding it from him? Was she afraid he would tell Wayne?"I get it now," Bryan said, slapping his thigh.He looked at Wayne. "This Scarlett, she's even wary of me, you know? When she ran away this time, she didn't let a single word slip to me. She knows about my relationship with you and is afraid I'd tell you. She told me she doesn't know who her man is because she was deliberately hiding it from me, fearing I'd tel
Scarlett struggled desperately. "Wayne, let me go!"Her strength was no match for Wayne's, especially when he was this furious.He easily pinned Scarlett's hands above her head, holding them tightly.She tried to kick Wayne off, but he anticipated her move and quickly used his legs to pin hers down.Scarlett was completely immobilized.Fear gripped her heart.This wasn't her first time with a man.But this was entirely different.That night, the man had been gentle with her.But...Wayne was insane!"If you dare touch me, I'll report you for assault!" she threatened.Wayne grabbed her chin, his grip so tight it felt like he might dislocate her jaw, crushing her bones.His face twisted with anger and sarcasm. "You can try, but let's see if you can win."As he spoke, he tore open Scarlett's nightgown.A chill hit her chest.Tears streamed down Scarlett's face instantly.Her body trembled slightly beneath him.What did he take her for?"Scarlett, are you still that pure girl?
