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

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

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

How did Scarlett end up interacting with Wayne? She had just overheard Wayne talking about divorce. What on earth was going on? She crept closer,trying to eavesdrop on their conversation to find some answers.Sitting in the car, Scarlett suddenly felt deflated, like a wilted flower. She was dejected and downcast. This was the hardest decision she had ever faced.If she left, she would be breaking her promise to the Old Master Gray .Without his help, her mother might not have been able to get the surgery she needed. She owed him a debt of gratitude. Leaving now would make her seem ungrateful. She was deeply troubled. "You..." She suddenly lifted her gaze. "You were so eager to divorce me. Now that I'm willing, why are you hesitating? Don't tell me you've fallen for me?". Wayne's expression froze for a moment before he let out a cold laugh. "I'm not divorcing you because I want to keep you around and make you suffer! Fall for you? Keep dreaming!" Scarlett bit her lip. This man was t

She instinctively took a step back. Jeff gave her a once-over, despite her disheveled appearance, he couldn't deny her beauty. The red dress she wore outlined her allure. His gaze darkened involuntarily, but remembering how she had hurt him multiple times, he only wanted to catch her and settle the score. He stepped out of the car, "Seems like we have quite the connection, don't we?" Scarlett turned and bolted, but with his previous experiences, Jeff was quick to block her path, "Where do you think you're going?" Scarlett's face turned pale with fear. She knew all too well what kind of man he was. "Scarlett, right? Did you grow up eating ginseng or something? Do you have any idea how much my nose bled after you hit me?" Jeff had never been 'bullied' like this before! She was the first! As he spoke, he advanced step by step. Scarlett, barefoot and holding her high heels, kept retreating. Her eyes were filled with caution as she watched him. Chris ,who had returned, saw this

Over there, Christopher didn't show any sign of recognizing Scarlett Norman in front of Belinda and relayed the message word for word.Wayne's expression showed signs of softening.Belinda pleading on behalf of Scarlett was somewhat surprising to him."I'll take care of it," Wayne agreed.His swift agreement wasn't because of Belinda.He didn't want Scarlett to be out in public, dressed provocatively, and doing hostess work because she doesn’t have a job, nor did he want her chatting about those kinds of things with men online!Even now, the thought of her discussing such matters with another man was something he couldn't accept!Christopher said, "I understand," and hung up the phone, relaying Wayne's exact words to Belinda.However, Belinda wasn't particularly happy at that moment, as Wayne hadn't agreed to meet her.The next day.Scarlett arrived at the dance studio, and Principal Blackwood took her hand, thanking her profusely. "President Gray agreed to invest! Thank you so much.

Scarlett thought about the relationship between Belinda and Wayne. Right now, because of what Belinda had done to her, she couldn't even look at Wayne without a scowl."I'll do whatever I want. It's none of your business!"She had been too panicked earlier. When she found out she was pregnant, she wanted to get rid of it. But when someone threatened her child, she lost her mind.She was terrified of losing it.Terrified that someone might hurt them. Belinda knew she was married to Wayne.She must have thought the baby was Wayne's.So she tried to harm her child?In her anxiety, she had forgotten that Bryan was right there, leading her to act out of line.Facing Wayne's fierce gaze, Bryan quickly explained, "I didn't see anything."He hurriedly pushed Scarlett out of the car, afraid that Wayne might take his anger out on him, and drove off in a rush.Scarlett's lips tightened into a thin line as she glared at Wayne, her eyes filled with intense hostility.Wayne's brow furrowed deeply.

Scarlett snapped back to reality, hurriedly adjusting her expression and smiling, "Oh, it's nothing." Just then, it was work time, and Belinda arrived. Seeing her, Scarlett was about to open the car door when Wayne grabbed her hand. "If we're going to pretend, we need to do it right." Scarlett looked utterly confused. She blinked her clear, bright eyes. Before she could say anything, Wayne had already moved closer. Instinctively, she tried to step back, but Wayne wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into his embrace with a charming smile. "We're supposed to be a couple. We need to act like one." Scarlett swallowed hard, meeting his ambiguous gaze, her cheeks growing warm. Wayne lowered his eyelids, his thick lashes casting shadows, his eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky. "Kiss me." Scarlett, "..." Christopher, "..." ... The air seemed to freeze for a moment! Wayne reminded her, "Belinda is here. Don't you want to make her jealous?" Scarlett bit her lip, e

Wayne glanced out the window, his stern face devoid of any expression. Only when he thought of someone did a hint of warmth appear. "To the Norman Family." " yes sir, he replied and headed towards the Norman Family residence. In no time, they arrived at the residence. Wayne got out of the car. "Leave the keys. You can go back." "Yes, sir." The driver parked the car and handed over the keys. Wayne took them and walked towards the house. The living room was empty and quiet; Scarlett was nowhere to be seen. He frowned slightly. Could she be out? No, that didn’t make sense. She wouldn’t take the baby out after just finding him. He began searching room by room, starting downstairs and then moving upstairs. Finally, when he pushed open one of the doors, he saw Scarlett.She was lying on her side on the bed, gently patting the baby, trying to lull him to sleep. He walked in quietly, his movements as light as possible, yet Scarlett still noticed someone entering. She turned her he
Unexpected Love Chapter 119
Before the lawyer could even begin reading the contents, Caroline couldn't wait any longer. She snatched the document from him, eagerly opening it to browse through the contents. Her heart was filled with joy and anticipation, dreaming of inheriting all the Norman Family's assets. However... The more she read, the paler her face became. By the end, her face was completely drained of color. "No, this can't be. Andrew would never do this to me. This must be fake. It has to be fake!" She screamed in madness, tearing the document to shreds. The lawyer didn't stop her because it was just a copy, not the original. It didn't matter if she tore it up. "You must have all conspired against me!" She glared at the lawyer and then turned her gaze to Scarlett and Beatrice. "You two! It must be you two behind this!" Scarlett couldn't be bothered to waste words with her. She signaled the lawyer to read the will. Caroline wasn't about to give up easily, but Adrian held her back and said, "Mom,
Unexpected Love Chapter 118
As she spoke, she noticed Scarlett holding a tiny baby in her arms. She quickly walked over and asked, "Where did this baby come from?" Before she could answer, she guessed, "Is it your friend's?" "It's mine," Scarlett said. Mrs. Robert's eyes widened. "Young Mistress... what did you say? Whose child is this?" Quickly, she thought of something. "Could it be the Master's?" Scarlett shook her head. "No." "What?!" Mrs. Robert was flabbergasted. "If it's not the Master's, then whose is it? Did you have a child with another man?" Scarlett didn't deny it. "Yes." "Scarlett," a deep, anger-laden voice sounded from behind her. Scarlett turned around to see Old Master Gray standing on the steps at the doorway, leaning on his cane. From his expression, it was clear he had heard Mrs. Robert's words. His face was ashen, and he spoke in a steady, yet stern voice, "Come with me." After speaking, she walked inside and headed towards Wayne's study. Butler Ronald glanced at Scarle
Unexpected Love Chapter 117
It was Adrian! "Adrian!" Caroline rushed over in a panic, terrified that something terrible had happened to her son. She lifted the metal frame and cradled her unconscious son, patting his cheeks. "Adrian, wake up! Please don't scare me like this, please..." Caroline was genuinely crying. Adrian was her only son, and all her hopes were pinned on him. If anything happened to him, she wouldn't be able to live on. Everything she did was for her son! "Are you stupid? Why did you save that woman who's fighting you for the inheritance?Scarlett's knee was bleeding heavily from the impact, but she ignored her own injury and took out her phone to call 911. She limped over, wanting to check Adrian's condition. Caroline, thinking Scarlett meant harm, pushed her away. "Don't touch my son!"Scarlett stumbled from the push. "If you don't want your son to be in danger, let me take a look. I'm a doctor; I won't hurt him," she said coldly. Caroline, still holding her son and crying, accused
Unexpected Love Chapter 116
"It's not up to you to decide who gets the Norman family's inheritance, Caroline. I will find out how my dad really died, and if you had anything to do with it, I won't let you off," Scarlett said coldly. Caroline had just returned, "If you dare to fight my son for the inheritance, I won't let you off either!" "Mom..." Adrian tried to persuade her. Andrew had just passed away, and here they were, arguing heatedly in front of his body. How could the deceased rest in peace? "Adrian, I'm telling you, don't let your father brainwash you. I'm the one closest to you. What does Scarlett have to do with you?" Caroline snapped. Adrian always sided with Scarlett, which made her very unhappy. She believed that Adrian's behavior was all Andrew's fault. He had instilled the wrong ideas in their son! Half-siblings, what kind of bond could they have? Given her own conflicts with Scarlett, it was destined that Adrian could never see Scarlett as family! And now, with the inheritance dispute,
Unexpected Love Chapter 115
Scarlett explained in a soft voice.Wayne only had a rough idea of what happened. After all, Caroline had chosen a remote location, and Wayne was clueless about what transpired in between. Hearing Scarlett say that Caroline had tried to harm her, Wayne's nerves tightened. "Are you hurt?" he asked. Scarlett shook her head. Thinking about Julian's injury, Wayne felt reassured. She was skilled with a scalpel; it wasn't easy to harm or capture her. However, she was still a girl, and no matter how smart, her physical strength had its limits. "Be careful from now on," he advised. "If anything happens, contact me immediately." "Okay," Scarlett replied, her clear, bright eyes blinking. "Wayne, I..." She wanted to tell him that she had given birth to a child. But as the words reached her lips, she hesitated, unsure of how to begin. "What's wrong?" Wayne asked. she lowered her head, trying to find the right words in her mind. "It's about last time. I had something important
Unexpected Love Chapter 114
Andrew had it all figured out. Once Scarlett vented her anger, he could ask her to take care of Adrian, and she wouldn't be able to refuse him. He had already planned everything. The distribution of the Norman Family's assets was settled in his will. No matter how hard Caroline tried, it would be futile. Caroline knew Andrew didn't have much love for her, but she never expected him to be so cold-hearted as to use the inheritance to threaten her into confessing for Scarlett. "I've been with you for almost twenty years. Don't you have any trust in me? I've told you, I didn't..." "Just tell me, are you going to confess or not?" Andrew cut her off, having no patience for her excuses. Caroline stood there, trembling all over. Though their relationship had never been particularly loving, they had always been seen together, and he had been gentle and considerate towards her. How could he be so heartless now? "I gave you a son!" she shouted, her voice breaking. Andrew remained
Unexpected Love Chapter 113
At this moment, his gaze at Scarlett was so intense it felt like it could tear her apart. If looks could kill, she would undoubtedly be dead by now! "I was just..." Scarlett began to explain. But Wayne abruptly stood up, clearly unwilling to hear any of her words or excuses, and stormed out of the dining room. Scarlett tightly pressed her lips together and didn't follow him. Wayne was furious right now; if she approached him, he wouldn't listen to her calmly. It was better to let him cool down first. She would explain once he had calmed down. "Achoo—" Scarlett covered her mouth as she sneezed! Mrs. Robert noticed and asked, "Are you catching a cold?" Scarlett nodded. Mrs. Robert went to get her some cold medicine. "Thank you," Scarlett said. Mrs. Robert smiled warmly, "You're Mr. Gray's wife. Taking care of you is part of my job." At the mention of Wayne, Scarlett lowered her eyes. She put the pill in her mouth and washed it down with water. After eating, she changed i
Unexpected Love Chapter 112
Scarlett knew that someone like Julian, a pampered rich kid, was terrified of death. "Let me go," she said calmly, her tone direct. Julian refused to budge. "I don't believe you'd dare to kill me." He thought Scarlett, just a girl, wouldn't have the guts to do it! But what he didn't know was that as a doctor, someone who dared to use a scalpel, she was anything but timid. Scarlett pressed the sharp edge of the broken glass into his skin. Julian felt the pain and touched the warm, sticky blood, his face turning pale with fear "You... you really dare?" He was so nervous he could barely speak! "You wanted to ruin me, and if I don't have the guts to fight back, then I deserve it, don't I?" Scarlett, with the precision of a surgeon, applied just the right amount of pressure. Julian felt intense pain and saw a lot of blood, making it look severe, but it wasn't life-threatening. This was all about her choice of location! As a doctor, she knew the human body well! She kn
