unexpected love chapter 16: find out who it was that night!
Wayne had not slept in the room where she had spent the night.Everything inside was neat and untouched.She walked in, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then headed out. She went to the hospital, only to find that her job had been reassigned by the director.There was no place for her anymore.Feeling dejected, she turned around.As she walked out of the hospital, she stood on the steps, knowing deep down that she had no other choice.That evening.She arrived at Green Garden.Standing at the entrance, just as she was about to go in, she saw Belinda.Why was Belinda here?It didn't take long for her to recall Belinda's connection with Wayne, and it all made sense.She stepped inside, almost as if guided by an unseen force, and followed Belinda.She watched as Belinda walked into a private room, but inside wasn't wayne.Instead, it was a wealthy guy from their college days who had once pursued Belinda.Despite his wealth, he wasn't very good-looking, which was why Belinda
unexpected love chapter 17: Need to survive
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
unexpected love chapter 18: Suspicions
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
unexpected love chapter 19: Staying away from me
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
unexpected love chapter 20: You Like Her?
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
unexpected love chapter 21: We're not really married
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
unexpected love chapter 22
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
unexpected love chapter 23
The moment Wayne's imposing figure stepped into the private room, Scarlett froze.Her entire body stiffened.Harrison stood up and greeted him respectfully, "President Gray."Wayne's gaze moved lightly over Carlos face and landed on Scarlett.She usually went without makeup. Ever since he had known her, she had never worn any. Her daily attire was always modest and conservative; he had never seen her in a spaghetti strap dress before.The vibrant red color made her skin look even more radiant and flushed.Noticing that Scarlett hadn't moved, Carlos reached out and gave her a slight tug. "Stand up and greet him. This is President Gray."However, the moment Carlos's hand touched Scarlett’s arm, Wayne's expression darkened. If not for his remaining sense of reason, he might have rushed over and pulled Scarlett away.Scarlett stood up, her form-fitting dress underlining her curves perfectly.She exuded an unexpected allure.Wayne lightly fluttered his eyelashes, a glint of light quickly d

Bella hadn't even finished her sentence when Jackson's hand came down hard on her cheek. Bella was stunned. In all her years, her father had never laid a hand on her! Her eyes filled with tears of grievance. "Why did you hit me?" "Didn't you want to be hit? You can slap yourself, but I can't slap you?!" Jackson's voice was filled with anger. "I've never been so humiliated in my life. Now, thanks to you, my reputation is in shambles, and you still have the nerve to cry?" Bella was taken aback. "Dad, how did you know I hit myself?" "Do you think Wayne is a fool?" Jackson stared at his daughter. "I can't understand why you would do such a thing." "I just can't stand that woman being around Wayne. You said you would introduce me to him," Bella choked out between sobs. Jackson nearly fainted from rage. "Yes, I wanted you to marry Wayne, and you like him. That's a good thing. But the premise is that Wayne has to be interested in you. If he's not, what good is my introduction? You

Scarlett had no idea what Wayne meant by that.She quickly said, "I'm not familiar with this place, so I took some time finding the break room. You must be very thirsty! I'll bring the coffee to your office right away."The woman's expression paused slightly.In truth, it was she who had held Scarlett back with conversation, causing the delay.Wayne disliked staff gossiping and whispering during work hours.Had she just broken a rule?Wayne gave her a cold glance before turning and walking away.The woman's heart, which had been pounding with anxiety, almost leaped out of her chest. She thought she was going to get a formal warning.Luckily, she wasn't.She dared not gossip anymore and immediately returned to her workstation....In the office.Scarlett placed the coffee on the desk.Wayne stood behind her, looking at her back. "You don't want others to know your identity?"Scarlett turned around.Had he heard what she said?"I just didn't want to cause you any trouble," Scarlett said

Jackson thought he had the upper hand, but suddenly found himself at a disadvantage. His daughter was clearly more seriously injured! "President Gray, are you blatantly showing favoritism?" Jackson didn't bother with formalities anymore. This was heading towards an all-out confrontation. Wayne had no intention of breaking ties, but he wasn't afraid of it either. "Just like you, I am fiercely protective of my own." He waved Scarlett over. She obediently walked over and sat beside him. Jackson felt Wayne was being completely unreasonable. Bella was his own flesh and blood, his precious daughter. Who was Scarlett to Wayne? "She's just a woman who could be found anywhere and just happens to be prettier. How can she compare to my daughter?" Hearing this, Scarlett felt a sharp pain in her heart. Both were daughters, but look at how different their fathers were. At that moment, she tried to make her expression look relaxed. But she couldn't. Instead, her face gr

Bella Wells walked towards Scarlett. Instinctively, Scarlett took a step back.Luckily, the enforcement officers were still around. She moved closer to them.Although they weren't real police officers, at least they wore uniforms.They should be able to scare off any troublemakers, right?" Scarlett, come here," Bella called out, noticing Scarlett trying to avoid her. She stopped walking when she saw Scarlett retreating."What do you want from me?" Scarlett asked."You lied to me and tried to keep Wayne all to yourself. Last night was the first time I ever apologized to someone, do you know that?" Bella couldn't let it go.She had to get things straight with Scarlett."Wayne was the one who made you apologize. You should go talk to him!" Scarlett replied.Why was Bella coming after her?Did she think Scarlett was an easy target?"I'm not going to him; I'm coming to you!" Bella shouted impatiently. "When you lied to me, you had plenty to say. Now, why are you acting all scared?"Scarle

Seeing Scarlett, Andrew took large strides toward her. "Scarlett..." Before Andrew could finish his sentence, Caroline rushed out, looking aggrieved as she complained to Andrew, "Your precious daughter has no manners at all. She just pushed me hard." Scarlett deeply regretted coming here. Why did she have to get involved in Adrian's business? She must have been out of her mind to agree to ask Wayne for Andrew. Andrew shot a glare at Caroline. "You're an elder. Can you not hold a grudge against a child?" "Is she a child? She's grown up and even married. How can she still be considered a child? She didn't even lift a finger to help her own brother, so cold and heartless. What are you expecting? That she'll take care of you in your old age?" Caroline's words grew more and more agitated. She was still bitter about her son being in trouble. Back then, she had asked Scarlett to talk to Wayne on her son's behalf. But she had refused. Cold-blooded to the core. Andrew kne

Wayne drove her back to the villa, maintaining a demeanor that was nothing short of 'kind and gentle,' showing no signs of anger whatsoever. In fact, he was so nice to her that Scarlett almost believed he was a good person. But the slow boil of a frog in warm water is the most torturous. Scarlett nervously asked, "Are you going to get back at me later?" He smiled charmingly, "No." Scarlett felt her heart ease a little. Could it be that he really wasn't angry? Had he become more magnanimous? "It's late. Go wash up and get some sleep," Wayne said as he headed to his own room. Scarlett stood there for a few minutes, stunned. Could it be that He had changed? Had he really 'turned over a new leaf'? Scarlett returned to her room and sat by the bed for a moment. Wayne didn't come back to settle any scores. It was almost eleven o'clock now. He should be going to bed, right? Scarlett clutched her chest. Indeed, doing something behind someone's back is never a good idea. You never

Scarlett remained motionless. After watching the entire movie, her hand was drenched in sweat. Partly because of nervousness, but mostly because Wayne was gripping her hand so tightly. Even after the movie ended, Wayne didn't let go of her hand. Scarlett had no choice but to follow him. She glanced at the man so close to her and thought, Who said he wouldn't do it? He must have been pretending this morning. As they walked out of the cinema, they were greeted by the bustling night market outside. There were lots of people. Coming and going. Scarlett spotted a stall selling takoyaki in the distance. She wasn't sure if it was because she had watched a two-hour movie and was now hungry, or if it was her pregnancy cravings, but she said, "I'm hungry." Wayne replied, "What do you want to eat? I'll take you." Scarlett pointed to the nearby stall and said, "I want to eat that." "Not hygienic," he said, and without another word, he pulled her along. He drove her to a high-end r

"What... What are you doing here?" Scarlett was stunned. The secretary remained calm and replied, "I came to pick up something for President Gray I need to get back to the office, so I'll be leaving now." After speaking, the secretary walked out, casting a subtle glance at Scarlett before quickly heading downstairs. Scarlett frowned. Although she felt something was off, she didn't think too much about it. After all, the person was Wayne's secretary. Entering Wayne's office was probably like being at home, right? So, entering his room should be understandable too? "Ma'am." Mrs. Robert's voice came from downstairs. Scarlett went downstairs. "You really came back," Mrs. Robert said with a smile. Scarlett nodded, "Yes, I'm back." She sat on the sofa and asked casually, "Mrs. Robert, does the secretary often come to the villa?" "No, very rarely, almost never," Mrs. Robert replied. "It's usually Christopher who accompanies Mr. Gray." Scarlett nodded in acknowledgment. "Why did
unexpected love Chapter 72
The person who entered was none other than Scarlett's father, Andrew "Wayne didn't touch Adrian. Think about it, have you offended anyone else who might want to take revenge on your son?" "Not Wayne?" Andrew was clearly skeptical. "He's lying to you. If it wasn't him, who else could it be? I haven't offended anyone who would target Adrian. It has to be Wayne, no one else." Scarlett asked, "Do you have any evidence?" "Didn't he hit Wayne's assistant’s car? He's still in the hospital, along with one of his lovers..." "Alright, Dad, you should investigate this thoroughly," Scarlett interrupted, not wanting to listen to Andrew's assumptions, especially since they involved Belinda . "Wayne didn't make things difficult for you because of this, did he?" Andrew finally remembered to ask if his daughter had been implicated.Scarlett's lips curled into a cold smile. "It's rare that you remembered me." The sarcasm in her tone was so evident that Andrew could easily hear it. "It's not tha
