She had already made up her mind, but the thought of facing him made her hesitate.

His violent outburst from yesterday was still fresh in her memory!

Taking a deep breath, she mustered the courage to step into the house.

As she pushed open the door, she was greeted by Mrs. Robert.

With a warm smile, Mrs. Robert asked, "Back from work?"

Scarlett nodded and glanced inside, only to see someone sitting on the couch,his face hidden from the view.

Mrs. Robert said, "Mr. Gray is here."

Scarlett changed her shoes and walked in, forcing a smile as she greeted, "Good evening, Mr. Gray."

Wayne put down the financial magazine he was reading and glanced at her.

His tone was dripping with sarcasm, "Mr. Gray?"

This woman, refusing to divorce him yet acting so distant?

Was she playing hard to get?

Scarlett had already apologized once, but she sincerely repeated, "I didn't mean to touch your things. I'm really sorry."

"Do you really think that just saying sorry will make me forgive you?" Wayne leaned

    Scarlett was dreaming. In her dream, two giant snakes were coiling around her, squeezing the breath out of her. Just when she thought she would suffocate, a light appeared, and she grabbed onto it desperately...She thought she was about to be saved, but then she was jolted awake.Opening her eyes, she saw a tall man standing in front of her, his clothes disheveled, looking like he was ready to devour her.She instantly woke up fully, scrambling to the corner of the sofa, her voice trembling and hoarse from sleep, "W-what do you want?"Her voice was raspy from just waking up, with a hint of a tremble.Wayne let out a mocking laugh. Clearly, she had deliberately messed up his robe, and now she was pretending to be scared?"Isn't it you who wanted a man and pretended to be asleep to make a move on me?"Scarlett's breath hitched, her fingers slowly curling up as she stubbornly glared at him, "I did not!"Wayne obviously didn't believe her. "Really?"Without warning, he leaned in closer.H

    He hung up the phone and casually tossed it onto the table. Smack! Scarlett flinched in surprise. She stood quietly to the side, not daring to make a sound. Getting tangled up with an ex-boyfriend is something no one would tolerate, let alone the arrogant Wayne! "Um..." she began softly, trying to speak. Wayne was fuming, and at that moment, even the sight of Scarlett irritated him. He couldn't calm down, pacing back and forth, his molars grinding audibly, his eyes blazing with uncontrollable anger. He knew deep down that his rage stemmed from the thought that the woman he desired had a disgraceful side! It shattered all the beautiful fantasies he had about that night! Just being here made him think of the disgraceful things he had just heard. He strode out of the room. Scarlett instinctively followed, "President Gray..." Wayne, consumed by fury, snapped "Get lost!" She stopped in her tracks. Even if Wayne had any intention of giving her a chance, after what

    In the living room, Caroline sat seductively on the couch, dressed in silky pajamas. Seeing Scarlett, she arched her perfectly shaped eyebrow. "Well, if it isn't Scarlett." Scarlett clenched her fists tightly. During the time her mother had been sick, Carolina had already made herself at home. Her gaze fell on the expensive jade bracelet on Caroline's wrist. It seemed the money from the Gray Family had turned Andrew's fortunes around. Bitterness welled up inside her. "I'm here to see Andrew." Caroline flicked her wavy, chestnut-colored hair. "Your dad's not home." Scarlett turned to leave... "Wait." Caroline called out to her. "You're not here to ask for money, are you? You're already the Young Mistress of the Gray Family. How could you be short on cash? Let me tell you, we have no money to give you. Your mother is a bottomless pit." Scarlett pressed her lips together. This Mistress was now acting like she owned the place?"Andrew hasn't divorced my mom yet. If he refuses to

    Wayne tugged irritably at his collar, a cold snort escaping from his chest.The memory of that night, the innocence of that woman, lingered deeply in his mind.Belinda had a boyfriend. The way she was so close to that man, it was obvious they had been intimate."The surveillance footage from that night was destroyed. Without concrete evidence, there could be a mistake. I'll go back and check if there's anything we missed. If only you had left some kind of token or something back then, it would have been better..." Christopher grumbled as he went about his tasks."Wait..."Wayne called him back, "Never mind."Thinking it over calmly, a woman who would engage in such an encounter in that situation—could she really be a reserved woman?Someone who would give herself away so easily—how could he expect her to be pure?His standards were too high.Now, it didn't matter to him at all.Whatever kind of woman she was, he no longer felt the initial excitement.Christopher couldn't understand Wa

    Scarlett didn't react immediately. She looked up at him for two seconds before understanding what he meant. But she didn't respond. This man always had something to humiliate her with. She lowered her head and stuffed food into her mouth, wanting to finish quickly. Wayne frowned at her silence. "Why are you eating so fast? No one's going to steal your food." He felt inexplicably annoyed. Watching her eat so ungracefully, he didn't find it rude. In fact, he found it somewhat endearing. She was much more genuine than those women who always pretended to be elegant and classy. Scarlett finished her last bite, took a sips of water, and retorted, "Whether I eat fast or slow is my business. Why do you care?!" After all, he had already made her jobless. She had nothing left to fear from his threats. She was ready to fight back! Wayne slowly lifted his eyelids ,a hint of coldness in his eyes. "Are you tired of living?" Had she grown a backbone? Talking back to him like this? Di

    Jeff nodded in acknowledgment; Scarlett had indeed piqued his interest. As for what he liked about her, he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Maybe it was the allure of the unattainable? In any case, the woman who had hurt him multiple times left a deep impression on him. Wayne knew jeff hadn't gained any advantage from Scarlett, which slightly calmed his anger. But knowing that jeff liked Scarlett made his anger flare up again. Even more intensely than before! "What do you like about her?" Wayne couldn't see any redeeming qualities in that woman. What was there to like? Besides being fickle, what else could she do? "I don't know either. I just want her," Jeff replied without hesitation. Wayne frowned, feeling as if something that belonged to him was being coveted by someone else. "Stay away from her!" His tone was a clear warning. Jeff was baffled. What was going on? He curiously asked, "President Gray, are you interested in her too?" Standing behind, Chris also

    Wayne's gaze lingered on her curvy figure, his eyes deepening uncontrollably, his pupils trembling slightly. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he struggled to maintain his composure. "Do you think you can seduce me like this?" The truth was, he was already seduced. His pride wouldn't allow him to have such thoughts about a woman like her. "I-I-I didn't..." Scarlett stammered, grabbing a towel to cover herself. "In front of me, never show your filthy body again." With that, he slammed the door and stormed out. He strode into the adjacent room, trying to avoid seeing Scarlett again. But his mind was filled with the image of Scarlett's alluring body, replaying the most tantalizing parts like a movie being replaced. He couldn't control his thoughts. Frustrated, he tugged at his collar, which wasn't tight at all, yet he felt suffocated. His restless and agitated mood made him want to lash out. He muttered under his breath, "Damn woman!" Her ability to seduce was in

    Seeing her cautious and shocked expression, Wayne deliberately asked in a teasing tone, "You don't remember what happened last night?" The way he dragged out the words "last night" made it sound even more suggestive, leading her mind to wander. "Last night?" She vaguely remembered accompanying Wayne to the hospital and falling asleep on the way back. After that, her memory was a complete blank. How Wayne had carried her to the room and undressed her, she had no recollection of it at all. As she carefully assessed her body, she didn't feel any discomfort. Having been through such experiences before, she knew what signs to look for if something had really happened. Wayne seemed to sense her thoughts and gently tapped her nose. "I wouldn't do anything without your consent." Scarlett inexplicably felt a wave of relief wash over her. "It's getting late. Time to get up!" Knowing she would feel embarrassed, Wayne got out of bed first and left the room, giving her some spa

    Scarlett tilted her head up, staring at him with a cold expression. "Let go of me!" Instead of releasing her, Wayne tightened his grip. Scarlett could barely breathe from the pressure.Wayne's face was serious. "The moment you rushed into my arms, I didn't want to let you go."Scarlett's heart skipped a beat. Is that why he didn't call immediately? She stopped struggling. Her face pressed against his chest. With her eyes closed, she could feel nothing but his presence. "Can you tell me where you went on the night of our wedding?" She finally asked. She needed to confirm her suspicions. Wayne's expression faltered for a moment. That night, he had encountered some issues and met Belinda, and then... "Why are you asking this?" he said, his voice low. He really didn't want to bring up Belinda. "I want to know. Can't you tell me?" She looked up at him. "I was abroad, handling company matters," he said. He couldn't possibly tell Scarlett that he had lost control and ended up wi

    It was a tiny diamond from Scarlett gown. The diamond fell onto the marble floor, leading towards a flat lawn. Wayne noticed the footprints. Scarlett's gown required high heels, and though she wore shoes with heels, they were the chunky kind, a style rarely seen nowadays, making them easy to identify. He stepped onto the lawn, searching. When he discovered a path, he didn't hesitate and followed it. Scarlett was absent from the party. This could only mean she might have stepped out. The path grew narrower and more secluded, and soon he found himself in front of a rose garden. The sky was dark, and the surroundings were hard to discern. "Help, is anyone there..." Just as Wayne was about to turn back, he thought he heard a voice. He followed the sound, "Scarlett?" Scarlett didn't hear him, so she couldn't respond. Inside the dark hole, she couldn't see anything and was terrified. The area was overgrown with thorny bushes, and everything was damp. She curled

    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

    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.

    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

    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.

    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

    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
