Pampered by the Demon - Chapter 123

Scarlett originally planned to make dishes to entertain her idol, the president of EF, Ben, and another friend of Mike, Jett.

Mike saw her excited look and felt jealous. He didn’t let Scarlett cook and just prepared a simple hot pot.

“Are you sure they will like hotpot?” Scarlett asked.

Mike told her that his friends were often abroad and would like hotpot.

Therefore, for some reason, the dinner was switched to hotpot.

Scarlett looked at the dazzling dishes. Although she prepared a lot, she felt that it was not enough to entertain the guests.

“They are not as complicated as you think. Just treat them as ordinary friends.”

Mike rubbed Scarlett’s hair. This was the first time he formally introduced his friends to Scarlett. The little wildcat was a little nervous.

“I always feel that the friends of the overbearing president are not normal human beings,” Scarlett muttered in a low voice.

Not waiting for a few minutes, the doorbell rang, and Mike went to open the door. His friends arrived.

When they entered the door, they smelled the flavor of the hotpot in the air. Mike, who was wearing his pajamas, and Scarlett, who was smiling unnaturally, stood at the door and welcomed them.

Jett rubbed his eyes at the sight of Mike.

“Mr. Abraham? Did I go to the wrong place?”

After saying that, he took a step back and shook his head.

“I never expected this! Ben, hurry up and take a photo.”

The air was filled with the smell of hot pot. Although the decoration style was in line with the cold and distant aesthetic taste of Mike, the casual little decoration showed that this was a warm home with a hostess.

The budding lily in the vase or the little doll could show it. Besides, the couple was wearing the same slippers while standing in front of them.

All of these added some warmth to the home that was mainly black and white.

Ben didn’t overreact as Jett. He handed the red wine in his hand to Mike, put on his indoor shoes, and smiled at Scarlett.

“Hello, we meet again.”

“Welcome!” Scarlett was a little excited to see her idol. The master of the film industry appeared just before her eyes.

Seeing it, Mike’s eyes darkened, and he put on a weird smile towards Ben.

“Ben, why didn’t your girlfriend come with you?” The word ‘girlfriend’ was especially emphasized.

Ben looked at Mike with confusion. Where did his girlfriend come from?

“Oh, I remember now. Those can not be considered your girlfriends.”

Mike explained. This time, the focus was on “those”.

Mike turned around and looked at the little wild cat. He tried to tell her that Ben was a playboy.

Mike wanted to indicate that Ben got a lot of girlfriends, so Scarlett should not admire him anymore!

Ben and Jett were confused.

He didn’t seem to have offended Mike, right?

The guests and hosts sat around the hot pot.

“Mike,” Jett said.

Mike sat next to Scarlett.

Scarlett took the crystal decanter and distributed the wine that had been awakened to Jett and Ben.

This should be done by the hostess, and Mike was very satisfied.

It turned out that Mike was talking to his good friends in the way he talked to Scarlett.

“Scarlett’s cooking skills can even satisfy Mike who is picky. Why can’t you let us have a taste? Is it really so precious that only you can enjoy?”

Jett’s teasing made Scarlett’s face red. Mike picked up some food and placed it on Jett’s plate.

“Even the food couldn’t make you shut up. It’s best if you just eat and not say anything.”

The atmosphere was not as serious as Scarlett thought. The guests were very good at chatting. Jett seemed to be careless, but he was considerate indeed. Ben looked like a good gentleman with no temper, but there was a sense of alienation in him.

The two super elites of the outside world were easier to contact than imagined. What Scarlett didn’t know was that all of this was because she was Mike’s woman.

This was the treatment that could only be received by her.

When they chatted, they would also take care of Scarlett’s feelings probably because they were afraid that Scarlett would feel bored while they were talking about some anecdotes from their university life.

It was rare for Scarlett to hear about Mike in school, and she was immersed in it for a while. They ate and chatted, and soon they became familiar with each other.

In the middle of the table, there was a large plate of fresh shrimp. It was washed very clean. Mike picked up one and put it in the pot. He then took it out, peeled the shell, and put it on Scarlett’s plate so that she could eat it conveniently.

Scarlett had heard a lot about what happened when Mike was in the university. She knew that the first capital in Mike’s life was got from the selling of his program.

Mike seemed to have a hobby of collecting all kinds of famous cars. He had this habit since he was a student. The most awesome thing was that he earned the money for buying cars by himself.

“When Mike said that he wanted to return to the country, many people were very surprised. The Director of the Space Bureau even personally went to talk to Mike, hoping that he could stay there. The program genius that was rarely seen in a hundred years chose to return to his homeland to do business. It was indeed an exception.”

Ben and Jett seemed to have guessed the meaning behind Mike’s treat. They also deliberately revealed some of the past deeds of Mike.

“You are so awesome!” Scarlett was surprised, and her eyes were shining as she looked at Mike.

She had thought that Mike was an indifferent person. She hadn’t expected him to have such a glorious time.

“At that time, the director also said that if Mike could stay…”

Jett’s expression made Mike frown, and Mike gave him a warning glare.

However, Jett ignored it and kept talking about the gossip about Mike back then.

“The director has a daughter. If Mike stays, he would marry his daughter to him! That girl’s chest is at least this big!” Jett gestured.

Scarlett immediately lowered her head to look at herself and instantly felt inferior.

Why did Mike give up the good offer and return to take over the Abraham Group that was about to collapse?

He did prove later that he had the ability to bring the dead back to life and bring the group out of the mess, becoming the industry giant in just a few years.

But in that situation, wouldn’t it be better to stay abroad?

There was also a hot girl for him.

“Don’t listen to Jett’s nonsense. There have been many women who have been chasing Mike all those years. I didn’t see he had fallen for anyone. Mike has his love in the country. How can he stay abroad?” Ben said.

His love?

Scarlett reflexively looked at Mike, only to find that Mike was staring at her with deep eyes.

He was very serious.

Mike’s stare made Scarlett’s face flush red.

How could he look at her like this?

It was as if she was his love.

Scarlett’s heart twitched.

Scarlett grabbed the glass to drink the wine, and the cold liquid slid across her throat, but it did not extinguish the fire of love in her heart.
