Pampered by the Demon - Chapter 121
“Why do you mention that woman?” Scarlett questioned.
Mike also felt that what he said was a little inappropriate.
Wendy hurt Scarlett, so it was natural for Scarlett to hate her.
However, it was very strange for Wendy to pay so much attention to Elaine.
Could it be that Wendy still didn’t give up on Richard? When Mike thought of this possibility, his face darkened.
“Hey, listen to me. I find that Elaine and I hit it off as soon as we met. I feel that we’ve known each other for a long time. Do you know? Do you know what I was thinking when I first met her?”
“Just say it!”
Scarlett ground her teeth in anger.
Mike might have gone too far.
“When I first met her, I felt uncomfortable. When I and Richard…”
“You failed to date him, so he has nothing to do with you,” Mike interrupted her.
“That’s not the point. The point is, after chatting with her for a while, I feel that she is very cute. I even hoped that Elaine could be my sister. Elaine is so much better than Wendy.”
Mike remained silent.
“The Shields family will not agree.”
No one would like Wendy.
The Shields family wasn’t stupid.
Elaine didn’t find a good man. Except that, Elaine was much better than Wendy.
“It’s just my wishful thinking. Elaine’s baby must be Richard’s. I’ll call him and ask him about it.”
Scarlett took out her phone. Richard already had a child. How could he still cancel the engagement?
“Don’t poke your nose into other people’s affairs.” Mike was driving and seized her phone.
“I’m not. I can let him cancel the engagement because of me. Elaine has a baby now. Her baby might be an illegitimate child because of me.” Scarlett would feel guilty for the rest of her life.
“She wants to have a baby, and her family will put pressure on the Cowan family. And how do you know that she will not tell Richard?”
“I have a hunch that she will not tell Richard, and she will not tell her family. If I break up with my boyfriend and have a child, I would give birth to the baby and raise it by myself.”
“Shut up!” Mike glared at her.
“If you dare to leave me with a baby, I will break your legs.”
“Since they have broken up, it must be because their relationship is broken, or there is a problem that can’t be solved. She wouldn’t go to talk to her ex-boyfriend. Do you think she needs the abortion fee or the nursing fee? She is not short of money and wouldn’t ask for a snub.”
It was indecent to talk about money after breaking up.
“How do you know that the problem can’t be solved if you don’t talk? Do you women think that to raise a child alone is a great deed?”
“Because men are too cruel! They plan to break up, renounce the engagement. Many men go to bed with women without condoms. Their kids shouldn’t recognize their fathers.”
Scarlett talked back to Mike.
The focus of the two people changed from Elaine and Richard to the problem between men and women.
“Why do I quarrel with you? What were we talking about just now?”
“Elaine,” Mike said.
He thought that Scarlett lowered his IQ.
Elaine patted Scarlett’s head and thought that she could always easily irritate him.
“Anyway, you don’t have to worry about Elaine. She is an adult and has to take responsibility for her actions. Moreover, she has the Shields family backing her up.”
The Shields family was a giant multinational corporation. The Cowan family paled beside the family. Elaine was the only daughter of the family. The Shields wouldn’t see her suffer.
“But I have a bad feeling.” Scarlett lowered her head.
Although she had clearly rejected Richard from the beginning, it still caused much trouble.
Mike pursed his lips tightly. He wasn’t sure if Scarlett was feeling sad at this moment because another woman was pregnant with the child of the man she once liked, or if she felt sorry for Elaine and Richard.
Mike wasn’t confident in front of her.
Suddenly, Scarlett looked at Mike with imploring eyes.
“Mike, do you know the Shields?”
“We have business dealings. But I’m not familiar with them. What are you going to do?”
“Can you tell the Shields family about Elaine’s pregnancy? It’s not easy for her to be alone in a foreign country and no one can take care of her. She has gone through a lot.”
If the Shields family knew about it, they would definitely tell Richard about it. Scarlett knew Richard well and he was very responsible. If he knew that Elaine was pregnant, he would definitely marry her.
“Are you serious?” Mike didn’t expect that she would ask him for this.
It seemed that she didn’t like Richard anymore.
“Well, I just knew Elaine, and I can’t help her a lot. I can only do this. If it’s Richard’s child, he has the right to know it. No matter they get married or not, they should sit down and talk about the baby.”
She thought very clearly now, which stunned Mike.
“I can’t talk to Richard. But you and Richard are at loggerheads, so you can go to tell the Shields family.”
If Scarlett went to tell Richard, he would be very embarrassed and sad.
If Mike inadvertently told Elaine’s family about it, the problem would be solved.
Scarlett thought that it was a good idea. She was about to take credit, but she found that Mike looked at her with a strange look.
Mike gazed at Scarlett.
Scarlett felt a chill run down her spine. What was he up to now?
“At the beginning of next month, I’ll go to Country E for a business trip. I’ll tell the Shields family about it.”
There were still two weeks. Scarlett looked at him in confusion.
“Two weeks is enough for Elaine to think about what to do. We shouldn’t interfere too early. Maybe she will solve it in two weeks.”
Scarlett looked at him with admiration.
Mike had organized this very well.
“In addition, the castles in Country E are very unique. You go with me.”
“What? You want to take me to go abroad?” Scarlett was surprised. She had always been very interested in the ancient castle in Country E and had long wanted to go there and take photos.
“Will the travel expenses be reimbursed? Will you arrange the accommodation and buy tickets for me?”
“Well, all the travel expenses will be reimbursed, and I’ll give you five hundred thousand pounds as a business trip allowance. You can go shopping with the money.”
Mike was still satisfied with her behavior just now.
