Chapter 69 Scarlett Flew off the Building!
Mike kneel on one knee, grabbed her little feet, and gently wiped it with his handkerchief…
Scarlett was well-proportioned. Her hands and feet looked small but were chubby and warm. Her feet felt like polished ivory.
Now, her snow-white, fleshy little foot was held in Mike’s hand. His gentle touch slowly spread from the soles of her feet.
Scarlett was petrified.
What was he doing?
She secretly pinched herself. It was not a dream.
Looking out of the window, it was a sunny day.
The aliens did not attack the earth and the doomsday had not yet come. Why would Mike wipe her feet in such a posture?
In her heart, Mike had always been proud and arrogant. He would submit himself to nothing from heaven to earth!
But such a mighty man was willing to lower his head and wipe her foot that had just stepped on the floor.
She felt a little dizzy out of scare.
Before Scarlett could recover herself, Mike had wiped her feet clean and helped her put on shoes.
“You can’t be barefoot again!”
“Are the twin brother of Mike?” Scarlett asked, doubting how Mike would do such a thing.
He flicked her head, “Why are you so silly?”
It hurt… Scarlett rubbed her forehead and glared at him. Now she was sure that he is Mike!
“Don’t wear heels anymore.”
“You bought that for me.”
After watching the meteor shower, those casual clothes in her wardrobe had all disappeared. Mike had fulfilled his promise that he would not let her wear the “rag” that was worth less than twenty thousand.
Instead, piles of custom-made clothes were airlifted from abroad to replenish her wardrobe. Though Scarlett did not know how much they cost, those dazzling logos had already shocked her.
For this, she almost went on a strike protest. Mike said that he would deduct the price from her salary. How many years would she have to repay the debt?
In the end, Mike compromised. In the name of the work suits, he paid 90%. But the remained 10% was enough for Scarlett to suffer for years.
Mike frowned. At that time, he didn’t think that she would be pregnant…
Scarlett heard him speak fluently in a foreign language on the phone again.
“Mike, you won’t order more clothes for me, will you? Don’t be so cruel, okay? I haven’t even paid you back the last time. Why do you want me to owe you more money?”
Scarlett thought, ‘A new exploitation method of the evil capitalists?’
‘He is too inhumane!’
“I will pay for you this time.” Mike was generous to this mother-to-be.
“I won’t thank you.” She whispered.
She was poor enough. And Mike had broken the computer she had borrowed. Scarlett decided not to wash her hands the next time she cooks for him.
In the afternoon, Mike had an important meeting to attend. To prevent his little wildcat from running away, he locked her in the office, disregarding her protest.
In the middle of the meeting, he suddenly, causing his subordinates to tremble in fear.
But actually, he was thinking about Scarlett’s disobedience.
He did not find her so stubborn before. She was more and more easily provoked. Although she never won him…
How could he tame her?
The previous methods were ineffective.
A manager was giving a report on the stage. Mike absent-mindedly looked out the window. Recently, he did not know how to deal with Scarlett and had to lock her up.
He wanted to explain it to her, but he did not know what she would do. What if she got angry and had an abortion?
It was better to wait until her stomach grew bigger before telling her that they had not divorced.
Mike was absent-minded all the way, and the atmosphere in the conference room was unusually intense. He saw the cleaner wiping the glass outside smiling brightly and reminded him of Scarlett.
Wait a minute, Scarlett?
The conference room was on the 30th floor. They hired professional cleaners to clean the exterior glass wall with the help of a sling.
Scarlett waved happily at Mike. “Hello, boss, how are you?”
Mike couldn’t believe what he saw!
She was sitting in a basket and waving at him proudly!
Everyone present found the boss’ face turn livid.
He stood up and quickly walked to the window, trying to catch her.
However, the basket began to steadily descend. He even saw Scarlett raise her head and give him a flying kiss.
“Bye-bye!”
Mike felt like his heart is about to jump out of his throat. These few seconds were the hardest time in his life.
Fortunately, the basket went down steadily. Scarlett safely jumped down and smiled brightly at the cleaner.
“Thank you!”
It was only when Mike saw that she had landed safely did he calm down. He did not even dare to speak just now, afraid that he would affect the workers’ operations and hurt her.
His unusual behavior attracted the attention of the other people in the conference room. No one saw that Mike’s wife had just gone down in the basket.
“Mr. Abraham?” Halfway through the presentation, Mike was distracted, leaving the staff standing on the stage not knowing what to do.
“Go on,” Mike said in a low voice. Everyone could see from his face that Mike was angry, but no one understood why.
Mike’s worry was dispelled and immediately turned into burning anger.Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
How dare she run out like that!
After this meeting, he would catch her back and punish her.
He wouldn’t let her off!
Scarlett had successfully run out. She stood downstairs of the Abraham Group building, enjoying herself.
Mike must be furious now.
But that served him right!
Scarlett was angry at him for locking her up.
She decided to buy some snacks and visited Miffy to celebrate her success.
“Scarlett .”
Hearing someone call her, Scarlett turned back.
Richard, in a white suit, stood behind her.
“Fancy meeting you here.” Scarlett was a little surprised.
But it was not coincident. Richard had hired a private detective to investigate her whereabouts.
“Could we have a chat?”
“I’ve got an appointment.” Scarlett declined politely.
Richard had a fiancée. She wanted to keep a distance from him.
“I will only take you a few minutes. I want to tell you about Mike’s scheme.”
Scarlett stopped and looked at Richard in surprise, ‘Mike? Scheme?’
