Pampered by the Demon - Chapter 138

However, from their conversation, Scarlett learned that Emily liked Mike.

But she didn’t know what Mike thought.

She wouldn’t allow anyone to take Mike away!

When she returned to the hall, the first thing she did was to find Mike and hold his hand.

She wanted to show those bitches that Mike was hers!

Mike knew what Scarlett wanted.

But he did not say anything. People who were familiar with him would find that although he was still expressionless at the moment, there was a faint smile in his eyes.

Mike and Scarlett smoothly finished the opening dance. Their beautiful and tacit dance was enviable.

At this time, Mike, who had been planning for the whole night, was finally ready to start his plan.

“Are you thirsty?”

Scarlett nodded.

Mike considerately took a beautiful “drink” from the waiter.

“Thank you!” Scarlett smiled sweetly at Mike. A malicious grin crossed Mike’s face.

After Scarlett drank the wine, Mike could do whatever he wanted tonight.

Scarlett didn’t know that although this beautiful drink had a sweet taste, it was a cocktail.

With her capacity for liquor, she didn’t need a glass of wine. Only a few mouthfuls would make her drunk.

Just as Scarlett was about to take the glass from Mike, she heard a commotion outside.

“Get out of the way. I am Mike’s father-in-law. Why not let me in?”

Scarlett froze. The glass in her hand fell to the ground. The clank attracted the attention of many people.

Allen!

Why did he suddenly appear?

Scarlett was stunned. Mike had prepared this banquet for so long. Would Allen’s appearance affect the Abraham Group?

Scarlett didn’t know that the real reason why Mike attached so much importance to this banquet was to get her drunk and sleep with her.

When Mike saw that the person who should not have appeared had arrived, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Emily who was on the other side of the hall.

How could Emily make this stupid mistake?

Emily looked away guiltily. Allen’s sudden arrival made the hall silent.

The moment Allen, who was sitting in a wheelchair, appeared, Scarlett trembled.

She never expected that Allen would appear at that moment.

If the banquet that Mike attached so much importance to was ruined because of Allen’s appearance, Scarlett would never be able to face Mike again.

Just as Scarlett was about to collapse, suddenly, an arm firmly supported her waist.

It provided Scarlett with the courage to not crumble.

Scarlett didn’t dare to look at Mike. She felt that she had caused a huge disaster for him.

Under the cover of the music, some people in the large hall did not notice the abnormality here, but some others had seen it.

Allen shouted as loudly as he could, trying to attract more attention, but under the cover of the music, only a few people could hear his voice.

While supporting Scarlett, who was about to faint, Mike winked at the security guards. Allen’s wheelchair was soon pushed away by two security guards.

“Mr. Mike, what’s going on?” one of the guests asked.

“The scammers nowadays have all kinds of tricks up their sleeves. That person just said he was my father-in-law. Do you believe it?”

The crowd echoed.

“No. How could Mr. Mike’s father-in-law do such a thing?”

Although those people were sure that they weren’t mistaken, no one dared to refute.

Some people were smart enough to pick up Mike’s point.

“Speaking of which, I remembered that last week, there was a scam group pretending to be my son for ransom. At that time, my son was by my side. Do you think it’s funny?”

The crowd burst into laughter.

Scarlett only felt a great noise around.

At this moment, she was at a loss, and her mind was filled with Allen’s arrogant face before he left.

Mike would hate her more in the future.

This was her father.

Allen had never done anything for her but had always forced her and ruined her happiness.

Mike noticed Scarlett’s abnormality. Her face was deadly pale.

Mike casually exchanged a few words with the crowd, held Scarlett’s hand, and took her to the garden behind the banquet.

In a quiet place far away from the hubbub of voices, Scarlett looked at Mike with a pale face.

She didn’t know how he would punish her.

“Scarlett, look at me.”

Mike placed his hands on Scarlett’s shoulders and shook her twice, making Scarlett look at him blankly.

“It’s alright now.” He patted her shoulders.

“I’m sorry. I, I didn’t know he would come. Did I ruin your banquet?”

If Scarlett did not care about Mike, how would she blame herself like this?

“I’ll go back and tell him to stop pestering you. No, that won’t do. He’ll come to me again.”

Scarlett did not know what she had just said.

Everything tonight was like a dream to her.

In the beginning, Mike showed up with her in a high-profile manner. Her love rival was frustrated.

When his gaze landed on her, she thought she was a lucky person.

However, the reality was cruel. Before she could finish this beautiful dream, Allen, who appeared everywhere she went, suddenly appeared.

Scarlett was filled with guilt towards Mike.

Mike trusted her so much, but she had caused so much trouble for him. Perhaps, because of her family, he would become the laughing stock of the upper class!

“Mike, don’t take me out in the future. When the Abraham Group’s stock price becomes stable, you can announce our divorce to the public, so that Allen will no longer come to you, and the money I owe you…”

“Shut up!”

Seeing that Scarlett was immersed in her emotions, Mike had to raise his voice.

Scarlett no longer spoke, but the despair in her eyes made Mike distressed.

“Listen to me! Allen’s appearance was a security mistake. They will be punished. Don’t think too much about it. Do you understand?”

This drama should not have happened. Mike had guessed who was behind it.

Scarlett was so scared. Mike had to do something.

“However, they will laugh at you. Because of me, you will become a laughing stock. Why do you still keep me with you?”

Scarlett had never felt like this before.

“When did you see others laugh at me? Who dares to laugh at me?”

This was not nonsense.

People in the business world were realistic. With strong power, Mike could call white black.

People of the upper class were not interested in checking others’ backgrounds.

They only recognized powerful people. Whoever had the ability would win their admiration.

“But, but Allen is my father. I approached you for other purposes. He asked me to steal your plan….”
