Chapter 11: Give me

Scarlett’s Point of ViewPuppet. A marionette. There was no denying it, was there? I had known all along. The way my father manipulated me with those string-like puppets, dictating what I should do, making me believe that I needed him just for my mom and I to survive. I had known it from the beginning, but why did it feel like the harsh reality and a stinging slap when he himself said it... "Sweetie... Scarlett. Honey. Are you with me?" A voice jolted me back to reality. As I looked up, I saw the concerned expression on Missus Scoville's face as she observed the crumpled brochure I held. Realizing my mistake, I quickly attempted to straighten it as I gulped anxiously."I... I apologize. I didn't realize..." I couldn't continue my sentence as tears unexpectedly streamed down my cheeks. What was this pain I felt just because of his words? "It's alright, dear. It's just a brochure. I'm more worried about you. You seem distant and pale. Are you alright?" She gently touched my forehe

Chapter 12: Nauseus

Scarlett's Point of View"The mango," he said, his voice dripping with impatience.I raised an eyebrow, feeling ignorant. "Huh?"His sneer deepened and remarked with arrogance, "Give me the mango. Are you deaf or what?" I couldn't help but be amused by his audacity. I held the mango tightly, refusing to surrender it to him. In a swift motion, he grabbed my hand and brought it to his mouth, devouring the fruit. A rush of heat flushed my cheeks as he teasingly sucked on my finger. Instinctively, I pushed him away, clutching the hand he had touched."What... What are you doing? Are you some kind of pervert or what?!" I exclaimed, my voice filled with a mix of shock and indignation.He ignored my question, his attention already diverted back to his laptop. I stood there, dumbfounded, for a few moments before deciding to let it go and just sleep.The next morning, I awoke in his room, realizing that I had fallen asleep there for the whole day and night. Exhaustion had gotten the better o

Chapter 13: Foolish

Scarlett's Point of ViewI scratched my head and forced a smile, trying to hide my discomfort. "How can I possibly do that, grandpa? It's Scoville's and my husband's money, not mine.""But you're a Scoville now, dear. Your husband's money is your money," grandpa replied softly. Then, his tone turned cold as he asked, "did Storm make you sign a prenup?"I was taken aback, not wanting to reveal the truth. The truth was, Storm had indeed made me sign a prenup after our wedding. He didn't want grandpa and his parents to know, so I kept it a secret until now. And admitting it at this moment, I had no desire to let him think I was only interested in his wealth."No, grandpa," I replied with a forced smile. "It's just that I'm not the kind of person who spends money that hasn't been earned through my own hard work."I bit my lower lip, feeling a pang of guilt wash over me, remembering what me and dad planned from the start."My son is fortunate to have married such a wonderful woman who isn

Chapter 14: Feeling Strange

Storm strode confidently into the high-end restaurant, its opulent decor catching the eye where only a handful of patrons were present. While a reservation was typically necessary for entry, Scarlett noticed the shocked expressions of the waitstaff and understood that this domineering man didn’t need one. The soft murmur of conversation filled the air, mingling with the clinking of silverware. A hint of rich aroma from the exquisite dishes wafted through the room. "The Scovilles!" exclaimed the manager, rushing over to them. "What a delightful surprise to see you here! It is truly an honor to have you as our guests." Storm nodded, his demeanor exuding elegance. "I would like to be seated in a VIP room." "Certainly, Mr. Scoville! Please, follow me." The manager led them to a room adorned with a large table, complete with candles and flowers, as if it were a romantic rendezvous. "This is the most exclusive reservation we can offer you. If there is anything you desire, please do not

Chapter 15: Mood swings, Sleepiness, and Cravings

[Note: Sorry if the names are sometimes mixed up. Please, continue commenting about them so I can fix them. Thank you!]Scarlett observed the transformation in Abegail's expression. The once friendly and approachable demeanor had shifted into that of a startled cat, ready to flee after being caught red-handed stealing someone else's food.Abegail attempted to free her hand and make her escape, but Scarlett firmly held onto it, her smile unwavering."Miss...Missus Scoville, I-I must go. My companion is waiting for me," Abegail pleaded, using her other hand to forcefully pry Scarlett's grip away.Noticing Abegail's flustered and anxious state, Scarlett released her hold. Just as Abegail was about to bolt and make her getaway, Scarlett blocked her path and scrutinized her from head to toe."Is there a problem, Abegail?" she inquired, feigning concern. "You look pale. Is my presence not to your liking?"Abegail swallowed nervously and shook her head. "N-no, Miss Scoville. It's just that I

Chapter 16: Pervert

The clock struck 7 pm, marking the completion of their preparations. Storm, with his comb-over black hair style and impeccably groomed jawline, looked dashing in his black tuxedo. Meanwhile, Scarlet descended the stairs in a mesmerizing light blue mermaid evening gown, accentuating her figure. She carried a clutch bag adorned with white pearls, a perfect match for her attire. This exquisite gown had been personally tailored by the renowned designer, Summer Carter, known for her exceptional creations in the bustling city of New York.Lost in his own thoughts, Storm continuously glanced at his watch, oblivious to Scarlett's graceful descent. He had no desire to attend the event, preferring to immerse himself in his work rather than partake in such gatherings. However, he had no choice but to attend, as the man in question was a new investor.As he stole one final glance at his watch and lifted his gaze, he was left speechless by Scarlett's presence. She appeared like a divine being, cap

Chapter 17: Do you know them?

Family Ford’s opulent mansion exuded an aura of extravagance, with dazzling chandeliers casting a warm, golden glow throughout the interior. Lavishly decorated tables, adorned with delicate silverware and fine china, beckoned guests both inside and outside. The air was filled with the mingling scents of freshly cut flowers and delectable cuisine, enticing the senses. Esteemed businessmen and renowned personalities mingled, their animated conversations creating a symphony of voices, punctuated by the clinking of glasses and occasional bursts of laughter. "Mister Ford, I must extend my congratulations to your son for attaining the esteemed position of President within your company!" a fellow businessman expressed to Daniel's father. "Thank you, Mister Jackson. You are well aware of the unwavering dedication my son possesses. He has toiled tirelessly for this achievement and it is truly well-deserved," Dylan Ford, the proud father, responded. The individual with whom he was conversing

Chapter 18: Cheating

Scarlet found herself at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond to Storm's question. She glanced at Noemi and Daniel, torn between pretending not to know them or revealing that she was already married.In the end, she couldn't betray her friends. She loved them like siblings."I...I know them," she finally admitted.Storm's eyebrow raised as he looked at Daniel with a cold gaze. He then released his grip on Scarlet's waist and spoke, "You didn't tell me about them."Noemi and Daniel were shocked by what they were hearing. Daniel desperately wanted to believe that he had misheard, but the word "wife" kept echoing in his mind. Noemi, on the other hand, wore a look of disbelief on her face. Her eyes darted between Storm and Scarlet, as if demanding an explanation."Scarlet?" Noemi called out again, as if she still couldn't believe that her best friend was with the man who was admired by many. "Why...are you here?"Scarlet bit her lower lip, her fingers trembling. "I...Uhm—"Before sh

Chapter 19: A baby

Scarlet forcefully pushed Storm away from her, disregarding the fact that they were in plain view of everyone. She shot him a piercing glare as she fired back, "Daniel is my best friend! You have no right to speak ill of him!" This action only served to irritate Storm, but he managed to maintain his composure. He knew that any misstep on his part could lead to rumors spreading like wildfire. "Listen, woman," he gritted his teeth, "there's a clear distinction between a platonic friendship and a romantic relationship. A married woman shouldn't be seeking solace in someone else!" "You're out of your mind!" Scarlet responded angrily, though she kept her voice low. "No matter what I say, it won't penetrate your stubbornness because you don't know how to listen!" "What did you just say?!" "What? Are you angry? Well, next time, watch your words! Not everyone will let it slide!" With those words, Scarlet left Storm standing alone and began her search for Noemi and Daniel within the villa

Chapter 20: No intentions of loving

Scarlet could feel the blood draining from her veins, leaving her feeling weak and lightheaded. She opened her mouth, ready to defend herself, but her anxiety melted away when she noticed another elderly couple calling out to the two old people she had been conversing with.The elderly couple excused themselves, leaving her frozen in place, afraid to make a move. It was then that Storm's voice broke through the silence."I thought you were hungry? Why are you still standing there? Don't act like some idiot in there and move!" Storm remarked, already making his way towards an empty table.Scarlet's ears burned with embarrassment at his words, and she quickly followed him with determined strides. "What did you just say?! Give me my plate and leave me alone!"She attempted to snatch the plate from Storm's grasp, but he lifted it out of her reach. Raising an eyebrow, he looked at her mischievously. "Get it if you can.""Mister Scoville, if you have no one to play with, then find someone e
