Chapter 208 Why Didn’t You Believe Her?
Just let Scarlett stay there and ponder her mistakes.
Mike might not be angry anymore after sometime. Then he would let Scarlett go.
Mike turned off the computer and was about to leave. Richard hurriedly came in with several people.
Richard looked around. He was surprised that Mike was here alone. He didn’t see Scarlett.
Mike squinted when he saw Richard.
The men who came in with Richard were wearing civilian clothes. Mike did not know that they were police.
Scarlett angered Mike just now. And Mike could vent his anger on Richard.
There was a traffic jam, so Richard was a few minutes later.
Richard was surprised to see Mike.
“Why are you here? Where is Scarl?”
Mike did not answer. He picked up the coffee cup before him and took a sip.
The coffee was for Scarlett.
But she was taken away before she could drink it.
Seeing that Mike did not answer, Richard was afraid that something had happened to Scarlett.
Richard asked anxiously, “I’m asking you, Mike! Where is Scarl?”
Mike put down the coffee. Suddenly, he stood up and kicked Richard in the stomach.
“I’ve warned you to stay away from Scarlett, Richard!”
Richard didn’t have time to hide and he stepped back. The police behind him wanted to stop Mike.
But he recognized that the man seemed to be president of the Abraham Group.
He stopped those who didn’t know Mike and wanted to walk forward.
They dared not provoke Richard. Nor did they dare offend Mike.
Richard became angry after being kicked.
He said to the police, “Just stay where you are. This is personal!”
Then, Richard took off his coat, moved his wrists and punched Mike!
Mike avoided the punch and kicked Richard hard. They fought against each other.
The chairs and tables were all broken.
The police officers looked at each other. None of them dared stop them. They could only go out, wait outside and prevent anyone from entering.
The last time Mike fought against Richard, Mike was only a little more powerful than Richard.
But today, Mike became more powerful because of anger. Mike pushed Richard to the ground and beat him. Richard became blue and black.
Finally, Mike let Richard go. Richard was badly hurt. Mike took the computer Scarlett put on the table.
He said coldly, “Scarlett is mine, now and forever. If you dare to approach her again, I will kill you!”
Mike wanted to walk away. He heard Richard’s laughter and stopped.
Mike looked at Richard and asked, “Why are you laughing?”
“I’m laughing at you.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Seeing that Mike didn’t know what had happened, Richard felt that it was worth being beaten up.
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t you think that I want to steal Scarlett, do you?”
“Isn’t it what you want?”
Richard leaned on the broken table and laughed proudly.
He wiped the blood in his nose and said, “Scarlett and I are just good friends. I come here with a few policemen to help her solve her father’s problem.”
“Do you think I will believe you?”
“It’s up to you. Scarlett and I are only good friends. How unsuccessful you are, Mike! Scarlett didn’t turn to you when she was in trouble. Instead, she turned to me.”
Mike snorted, “Why should I believe you?”
Richard looked at Mike sympathetically.
“It doesn’t matter whether you believe me or not. But do you lock Scarlett at home just to stop her from meeting me?”
No. Mike sent Scarlett to the police station and locked her up.
Mike was hesitant. Richard stood up and walked past him.
“I think you should apologize to Scarl. She looks straightforward, but she is stubborn. If you hurt her once, she will be sad for a long time.”
When Richard walked past Mike, Richard turned around and added.
“She won’t forgive you!”
Thinking that Scarlett would refuse to talk to Mike, Richard gloated.
Richard knew that Scarlett fell in love with Mike. It was impossible for him to pursue Scarlett.
However, it was good if Mike had some troubles.
Mike felt guilty. He kicked Richard on his waist and Richard staggered two steps forward.
Mike proudly walked past Richard.
“If you have time to worry about me, why don’t you worry about yourself?”
“Me?”
Mike gloated. He turned around and patted Richard on the shoulder.
“By the way, I haven’t congratulated you yet. You are going to be a father.”
Father?
Richard was shocked.
He was going to be a father? Which woman could have his child?
He only had sex with …
Richard thought of Elaine.
However, Elaine said that she went back to Country E.
Mike must be lying.
He lied because he felt guilty. He wanted to take revenge.
Richard persuaded himself. But he was still upset.
His wounds hurt. Mike was fierce.
Richard touched the corner of his mouth and thought about Elaine.
Perhaps, he should call Elaine.
Mike sat in the car and looked at the computer in the passenger seat.
Richard said that he brought the police over to help Scarlett deal with Allen.
The little wildcat said that Mike misunderstood her.
When Scarlett was taken out, Mike could even see the tears in her eyes.
Did Mike misunderstand Scarlett?
Mike shook his head. It was impossible. He caught her on the scene.
Just let Scarlett stay there a few days. When she realized the seriousness of betrayal, she would be set free.
What should Mike do, Scarlett? Even if Scarlett betrayed Mike, he still didn’t hate Scarlett and he wouldn’t let Scarlett go.
Scarlett was locked alone.
She didn’t know if she was in the detention center or the police station. She just stared at the iron bars on the window.
The bed was clean and there was no furniture in the room. The white walls made her panic.
It was quiet, as if she was the only one here.
Scarlett curled up. She hugged her knees and leaned against the wall. She was numb.
She didn’t understand why things turned out like this. She had arranged everything, but Mike suddenly showed up and didn’t believe her.
She just sat there, looking out of the window. Someone brought her some food. It looked good.
But Scarlett still felt heartbroken.
