unexpected love Chapter 10: Precious memories over little things
A sudden noise startled Scarlett. As she turned around, she accidentally knocked over a box, which fell to the ground with a loud clang! Shane glared at her, his immense anger making his expression terrifying. She hurriedly tried to explain, "I... I didn't mean to..." As she spoke, she crouched down to pick up the box. Just as her fingers were about to touch it, her wrist was grabbed with such force that it felt like her bones might shatter. Pain! It felt like her hand was about to break and cold sweat broke out from the intense pain. Wayne's eyes were bloodshot with rage. "Get your filthy hands off it!" With that, he violently shoved her away.scarllet was caught off guard and fell backward, hitting her head on the corner of a cabinet. The sharp pain left her momentarily numb, her head buzzing. She could feel warm liquid trickling down and reached back to touch her neck, feeling something sticky. No surprise, it was blood, but not much. She lifted her eyes, peering through a

Old Master Gray had already anticipated this. At that moment, Butler Ronald seemed to understand as well. "You wanted me to find a heart..." Before he could finish his sentence, Scarlett emerged with a medical kit. Butler Ronald immediately fell silent. Old Master Gray stood up from the sofa, leaning on his cane, and said to Scarlett, "Follow me." With that, Old Master Gray headed towards the study. Scarlett placed the medical kit on the table and followed him inside. Sitting down in the chair behind his desk, Old Master Gray's expression turned sorrowful. "Wayne's parents passed away early. I raised him. During his school years, he stayed in the dorms, and after graduating from college, he moved out of the old house to take over the company. He's been so busy ever since that he hardly ever comes back." Old Master Gray's voice was low. Wayne's father was his eldest son, and the pain of outliving one's child never truly fades, no matter how many years pass. There were reasons w

"Dean, why are you asking me this?" Scarlett Norman felt a faint sense of foreboding."You should know that being blacklisted in the professional field means..." The dean hesitated, "It means your career as a doctor might be over. No hospital will dare to hire you."Scarlett was stunned by this sudden turn of events.Her hands clenched and unclenched repeatedly. "Dean, I love this job, and I can't afford to lose it.""Even if I wanted to help, I can't." The dean felt regretful. He had always admired Scarlett's dedication and skill as a doctor.But he didn't have the power to protect her."If you want to keep your job, you need to talk to Wayne. You offended him, so apologize. It's better than losing your job," the dean advised kindly."I..."She hesitated.She knew very well that wayne's prejudice against her couldn't be resolved with just an apology.Wayne's treatment of her wasn't just because she almost damaged his precious item last night. He was also unhappy about her being his w

Christopher wasn't entirely sure either.He was equally puzzled when he saw the two of them laughing and chatting over a meal. It was a surprise to him as well.If he hadn't happened to pass by that restaurant, he wouldn't have found out."How about we call Dr. Bryan and ask him?" Christopher suggested.Wayne responded with a nonchalant "Hmm."Christopher went to make the call.About twenty minutes later, Bryan arrived at the company.As soon as he walked in, Bryan said, "I actually have something I wanted to talk to you about...""Do you know Scarlett?"Bryan was cut off mid-sentence. He paused and nodded, "Yes, I know her. She's my classmate from Medical School. She was the one who treated your injury last time."Wayne leaned back into the brown leather sofa, his dark eyes flickering, his long, thick eyelashes trembling slightly. So it was her that day?This was indeed unexpected."By the way," Bryan walked over and sat down, "Wayne, could you be a bit nicer to her?"Wayne raised an

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

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

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

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

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,

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

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

"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

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

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
