Chapter 2 Are You Resentful?
1185 Words
Scarlett shuddered when her eyes met Chris's cold black eyes, thinking she should not have offended such a dangerous person yesterday.
"Get closer!"
After one bodyguard pushed her hard, she staggered into the center of the living room, lost her balance, and fell to the ground at Chris’s feet.
When her hand accidentally touched his spotless handmade leather shoes, he frowned slightly and kicked her away as if she were something dirty.
Scarlett felt a sharp pain in her chest and couldn't help clenching her fists.
That was going too far!
Even though he had a noble status and looked handsome, he should not have arrogantly bullied others like this.
The women who liked him must have masochistic tendencies.
Scarlett was trying to suppress her anger, but the rage in her eyes had still been caught by Chris.
He thought she was too bold.
In Springfield, she was the first person who dared to look into his eyes so recklessly.
Suddenly, he recalled what had happened last night, so his handsome face obviously became colder.
Since she dared to drug him and plot against him, she must dare to do anything.
At the thought of this, he felt more furious, so he raised his foot, stepped on her slender fingers, narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice, "Why? Are you resentful?"
When Scarlett felt the piercing pain, her face turned pale.
She quickly restrained the sullenness in her eyes, lowered her head, and responded in a hurry, "No, I am not resentful at all."
A wise woman knew when to retreat.
This was his territory. If she angered him, he might kill her.
So, she would not argue with him but try to find a way to escape.
Chris grabbed her chin with his slender fingers, looked down at her, and said in a cold voice, "Tell me! Who sent you here? What’s your purpose?"
Scarlett felt her jaw was about to be crushed, and the pain was sharp.
She struggled and said, "Let go! You hurt me!"
Instead of letting go of her, Chris put forth more strength.
Scarlett's face became paler, and she didn't dare to struggle anymore, so she endured the pain and said with difficulty, "Mr. Wade, you are extremely handsome and imposing, and many rich women in Springfield are obsessed with you. Someone offered a high price to buy your sperm. I just wanted to make money. Don't get me wrong! I have no intention of harming you. I am sorry. I know I was wrong. Please spare me and let me go."
Scarlett cherished her life very much, so she spared no effort to praise him and apologized without hesitation.
Fortunately, she had a ready wit in the emergency and made up a good reason. After all, she did not want to implicate Bonnie.
Luckily, he didn't doubt the reason.
But when he heard her answer, his face became gloomier, looking indescribably horrible.
With a terrifying smile on the corner of his lips, he squeezed her neck fiercely and said in an extremely cold voice, "You just want to make money?"
Did she actually want to make money by selling his sperm? What a bold woman!
Since she dared to confess to it, she must not be afraid of death.
And he really wanted to strangle her to death now!
Because Chris was tightening his grip on her neck, Scarlett slipped into the terror of suffocating.
She felt her neck was about to be broken and had difficulty breathing.
"Let... go..."
She tried her best to pry his fingers up, intending to pull his hand away from her neck.
But his hand was as solid as iron, so she could not break free at all.
When Scarlett thought she was going to die like this, a man suddenly came over and said respectfully, "Mr. Wade, Old Mr. Wade is calling you."
Hearing this, Chris let go of her.
Then, Scarlett lay on the ground weakly, clutched her neck, and gasped for breath like a stranded fish.
"Lock her up!” Chris gave an order, got up, and walked in the direction of the study.
Hearing his words, Scarlett shuddered with fright and immediately raised her guard.
Was he going to imprison her?
He had almost killed her just now.
If she was locked up, she would soon die!
Scarlett was frightened to death, so she crawled to Chris's feet, hugged his long legs from behind, and said sincerely, "Mr. Wade, I know I was wrong. I will never do this again! What’s more, I failed yesterday and lost my virginity to you. You have punished me, so you have already evened the score. Please don’t lock me up! Can you please let me go?"
"I have already evened the score?"
Chris turned his head back and repeated her words as if he heard a big joke.
He looked down at her ugly face, sneered condescendingly, and said slowly in a cold voice, "In my opinion, my loss became larger."
Hearing this, Scarlett was taken aback.
His loss became larger?
So, he thought he had suffered a loss after sleeping with her?
Scarlett gritted her teeth and said bravely like a martyr, "Even if you suffered a loss after sleeping with me, can you tell me what I can do to let you release me?"
After Chris heard her words, his face suddenly became colder, and then, he kicked her away and left without turning his head back, saying, "Lock her up!"
"Yes!"
Scarlett panicked as the strong man in black walked toward her aggressively.
If she would die either way, she would rather take a chance and try to escape.
So, she gritted her teeth and charged at Chris like lightning.
She had been holding a sharp shard of the bowl in her hand under her sleeve, and now, she pressed it against his throat and shouted sharply, "Let me go! Or I'll kill you!"
When the shard was put against Chris's neck, a dozen or so pitch-black muzzles instantly aimed at her, and the bodyguards soon surrounded her.
Looking at the woman a head shorter than him who dared to hold him hostage, Chris smiled meaningfully.
Interesting.
This woman was bolder than he imagined.
Seeing the smile on his handsome face, Scarlett thought he looked more terrifying than when he wore a cold face.
She inexplicably felt panicked and pressed the shard against his neck harder.
"Hurry up! Let me go if you don't want to die!"
She had to get out of here as soon as possible. Her hands were slightly trembling now, so she was afraid she couldn’t hold Chris hostage for long.
"Woman, you have successfully annoyed me!"
Scarlett didn't know what Chris had done, but when she came back to her senses, she had been slammed to the floor and felt sharp pain all over as if her body fell apart.
"Take her away!"
Chris walked away without hesitation, while she was thrown into the small room where she had woken up in the morning, and some bodyguards were strictly guarding her.
