Marriage contract: Fake love

Chapter 27: July suddenly returns

Hades' sense of smell was still tinged with the warmth and scent of Scarlet's body even after she had left. Hades clenched his fist tightly before releasing it in a controlled manner.

The door to the room opened inexplicably and without a knock being given. Both Scarlet and Hades turned their heads in unison and looked outside the large door as soon as they heard the sound that had drawn their attention. Ellie's new arrival, she walked in wearing a fanciful lavender dress. Her blond hair flowed around her face like golden silk, and her face was filled with both naughty and sweet features.

Ellie didn't rush inside but instead just stood there and smiled at Hades as she leaned her back against the door and smiled at him.

"Hades, our meal is ready. Please join us. My stomach is also grumbling with the sensation of being very hungry."

Hades had good intentions of reprimanding Ellie, but he couldn't bring himself to do it. He looked over at Scarlet, and when he saw that she was busy gathering her belongings, his mood involuntary took a slight turn for the worse.

Ellie was confident that Hades would not be angry with her presence because she had cleared the air with him earlier. She did not act in the manner that was typical of her and instead greeted Scarlet with a bow and extreme politeness.

"Hello, and best wishes for a wonderful day."

Scarlet arched her brow and regarded Ellie's face with astonishment as she did so. Scarlet broke into a glimmering smile, and she crossed her arms while teasing Ellie in a lighthearted manner.

"Why have you all of a sudden taken such a kind stance towards me? I have absolutely no memory of this place at all. I am aware of who you are, Ellie; therefore, there is no need for you to pretend that you have feelings for me."

After honestly responding to Scarlet's question, Ellie nodded her head, demonstrating that she was in no way angry.

"I am well aware of the nature of the relationship that exists between the two of us; however, I sincerely hope that it will not develop any further than it has already because I wish to dispel any confusion. I don't want Hades to be troubled by this in any way."

Hades caught a glimpse of Ellie's stunningly bewildered gaze as it passed over to him. She displayed a radiant grin.

Scarlet laughed, and as her laughter echoed around the room, she shook her head. Scarlet was completely unmoved by Ellie's comments, and as a result of them, she found the situation to be significantly funnier than it normally would have been. She carefully placed her belongings in her bag, stood up, and then made her way to the main entrance of the building.

Hades looked down at the table and noticed that the pen with which Scalet had written earlier was still there. He picked up the pen and yelled after her to come back.

"Scarlet, you left your pen."

When Scarlet turned her head to look, she didn't intend to ask for the pen back, but Hades eagerly grabbed it and gave it to her anyway. Scarlet was surprised. Because he conducted himself in a very decent and polite manner, and there was not the slightest indication that he was trying to tease or tease her, Scarlet also felt more secure. She then took out her pen while giving a grateful nod.

"Thank you, Hades. My phone is always ready to take your contact information so that we can conduct business together, so please don't hesitate to get in touch with me if you need anything."

Hades nodded: "I am grateful to you, and I will get in touch with you if I believe it is necessary. Don't worry about it; if things aren't too challenging, I won't be a bother to you at all."

Scarlet gave Hades a friendly smile as she prepared to depart and then turned away from him.

Nevertheless, the sudden sound that came from outside the living room caused the three of them to stop dead in their tracks. When July's voice rang out, both of their shocked eyes looked straight at each other at the same time, causing their hearts to stop beating for a fraction of a second. living room.

Ellie's heart was racing, and for a split second, she was unable to stifle the rising panic that she felt. She sprinted towards Hades, pleading with him to keep her safe. Hades gave Ellie a quick hug before urgently giving Scarlet the signal to halt.

"Scarlet, don't leave, now is the time for the two of us to work together to get this over with," Hades told Scarlet. "I don't want my mom to know about this."

Scarlet: "Okay, you see that I don't plan on leaving either. This is also my concern, so you had better move quickly and bring your maidservant into the room where we are hiding first. Keep in mind that you should remind her to behave herself and that it is in her best interest to keep your mother from seeing her."

It caused Ellie to wince. Now, even if she gave her ten more guts, she wouldn't have the audacity to stand in front of Hades' mother and parade if she were given the chance. Ellie lacked the self-assurance and strength necessary to confidently face July and accept her harsh attacks because his mother had never really wanted to accept her. July's harsh attacks

She trembled and mumbled something to the effect of "Hades, where do I go now?"

Ellie was rushed into the room as Hades pulled her arm and led her in hastily. Scarlet got herself ready, and then went downstairs in a casual manner.

The moment July laid eyes on Scarlet, she let out an excited shout. She sprinted to Scarlet's house carrying several designer handbags in each of her arms. Everything, including one's wardrobe, bags, and footwear, is extremely valuable. After placing several items in Scarlet's grasp, July smiled before continuing.

"Scarlet, I think about you all the time. Do you like the gifts that I have for you?"

Scarlet grinned as she examined the weighty objects she was holding in her hand. She thanked July for her love in an earnest manner. She showed her appreciation for July by nodding her head.

"I am grateful that you were able to find the time during the outing to purchase presents for me. The presents that you purchase are most definitely exquisite works of art. I am positive that those presents will be appreciated by me as well."
