淑女的欲望

Logan, who was standing beside Scarlett, was speechless. This man, has he lost his mind? If he learned the identity of his young madam, he might die instantly from a heart attack.

"I'll forgive you…." She gave a wicked smile before continuing, "…But, Mr. Wood, you have asked the wrong person. You must first see my lawyer. However you have met me, let me tell you, whoever was involved in the assault, must be punished according to the law!"

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom "Scarlett, don't you have mercy on me? If you don't have it on me, please, have mercy on my mother. My mother is old and ill. Don't you feel sorry for her?" Brody tried to convince Scarlett to drop the investigation. He would do anything to help his mother.

"You asked me to feel sorry for your mother. What about my father!?" Scarlett could only laugh at his words. This man is so stupid. "Sorry! I can't help you!!"

Brody Woods clenched his fists in anger at Scarlett. This woman is too arrogant. They need money but don't want to cooperate!? After all, his mother can't be blamed in this case, she had gangsters attack Piers because the Piers family made his father miserable until he died.

Not seeing Brody Wood say anything, Scarlett walked past Brody, who stood in his place staring at her. She didn't give him a chance to say anything anymore.

However, his guards tried to stop her. But Logan suddenly moved; he pushed them hard and threatened them.

He said, "Take one more step, then you will bid your feet goodbye. Your choice, lads!" His dark eyes flickered with intense emotion and could make the two bodyguards tremble in shock.

Scarlett stopped and turned to look at Brody, "Mr. Wood, this is your last warning. If you still show up and try to harm me, I will file another lawsuit against you! Can you leave and never show yourself again before me?"

Her voice sounded casual, but it was enough to make Brody flush with anger. No language could describe his anger at this moment.

"Scarlett, you!"

Never before had he been humiliated by a woman like this. Enraged him so much he could feel his veins almost bursting. He grunts in annoyance and leaves the corridor, followed by his two bodyguards.

Scarlett smiled as if nothing had happened and walked to the intensive care unit to see her father.

She stays there for a few minutes and then goes to another room to visit Nicole.

Something doesn't feel right. Since arriving at the hospital, Scarlett has yet bumped into Lauren.

Suddenly her mind filled with so many questions; Where is that woman? Why couldn't she be seen at her father's or Nicole's place? Has she finally returned home? Or wait in the VIP ward room!?

Scarlett saw Logan. He was standing a few steps behind, "Logan, do you know where Lauren is?" Asked Scarlett.

"She has been arrested by the police and is undergoing investigation, ma'am."

Scarlett's smile grew wider when she heard that. The police in this country are efficient; they move very fast even though they just made the report last night.

Later...

She gets a call from Grandpa Robert. He asked her to come to the senior doctor's rest area, where he used to rest before surgery.

She immediately went to see him; she wanted to talk to the old man after so many years they had not seen each other.

Only the two of them were in a large room resembling a luxury hotel waiting room. However, the size of the room was not very large, but very comfortable and luxurious.

Scarlett was surprised to learn that there was such a room at Hope Hospital.

"This Hope Hospital isn't bad, huh!?" Scarlett muttered and walked over, looking at the large glass window. She could see the street below was quite busy. And in the distance, she could see a beautiful beach.

After she arrived, this was the first time she could enjoy the island's scenery. Since yesterday she has been too busy to have time to enjoy the view.

"Sit down first! Would you like some tea?" Grandpa Robert asked while making his tea in the corner.

"Yes, a hot cup of tea sounds perfect!" Scarlett said while sitting on the couch.

Not long after, Grandpa Robert sat opposite Scarlett and placed the tea on the table. He studied the girl in front of him with a probing look before he said, "I heard this is your husband's Hospital..."

A smile appeared in his eyes when he saw Scarlett looking at him in surprise. He said, "...girl, explain to me, how did you get married without telling me? And you are lucky to get a rich man in the country to be your husband."

He casually picked up his teacup and took a graceful sip, his eyes still on Scarlett.

"Hahaha, Grandpa, it's such a long story," Scarlett tried to distract Grandpa Robert. "...Let's talk about your plans for my dad's surgery, Grandpa!" She said as she followed him to sip her tea.

"Well, I have plenty of time to hear your story."

His firm tone and half smile made Scarlett unable to distract him. She finally tells everything about her story with Xander that she makes up if anyone asks.

There was a hint of disappointment that emerged from Robert's eyes. All this time, he wanted to marry Scarlett to his grandson in M Country, but this girl always refused.

However, even though he was slightly disappointed, he was also quite happy. This girl had finally found the right man for her to marry. She's really good at finding a husband.

After discussing her marriage, they continued discussing Grandpa Robert's surgery plans.

"Gramp, so you will start the surgery tomorrow?" Scarlett is feeling excited. It's about time her father woke up.

She couldn't wait to open her father's heart and mind about the woman he married, Lauren! She hoped her father would soon realize how wicked that woman was.
