淑女的欲望

At the same time, Scarlett appeared at the door. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw a nearly naked woman sitting on Xander\'s lap.

\'What the hell!?\' She muttered while covering her mouth in fear of making a sound. 

Scarlett couldn\'t believe what she was seeing. The scene before her seemed like a cruel joke, but the reality remained unchanged as she blinked a few times. Her eyes were fixated on the almost naked woman tightly wrapped around Xander\'s body.

Her heart felt like it was being ripped out of her chest, and her knees began to shake uncontrollably. She couldn\'t bear the sight of Xander, the man she loved, being held so intimately by someone else.

Xander\'s shocked expression only added to Scarlett\'s pain. She couldn\'t imagine how he could betray her like this. Scarlett felt like she was going to faint. Her mind was racing, and her heart was in turmoil.

Scarlett struggled to step back, with her legs almost turning to jelly. Her mind was screaming for her to leave that place and escape from the pain consuming her. She knew she needed to get away and fast.

After much effort, Scarlett\'s body could move. She dragged her feet away from the scene of the betrayal. Every step felt like an eternity, and every breath felt like a struggle. All she wanted was to disappear, to be anywhere but here.

...

Xander froze in shock when he saw Scarlett standing at the door, he could see her eyes filled with pain and anger. Without thinking, he pushed Zoey away from him with such force that she fell to the floor.

"Scarlett, wait!" Xander shouted in a panic, desperate to explain what was going on. He moved quickly towards the door, but he felt Zoey\'s hand grab his leg before he could leave.

Xander looked down to see her clutching his thigh with such a crazy woman\'s force that he couldn\'t move. If Xander forced her to unlock her clutch with brute strength, he would probably kill her.

Even with Xander\'s raging gaze, Zoey didn\'t seem to care, and her grip only tightened. "Xander, please don\'t leave me! I\'d rather die than see you leaving me," she begged.

Xander was furious. "What are you doing, Zoey Warner!" he snapped, trying to shake her off. "I\'ve never hit a woman, but if you don\'t let go of me right now, you\'ll be the first woman I\'ve ever hit!"

He knew he had to talk to Scarlett and explain everything, but Zoey\'s grip was so tight.

Zoey\'s eyes met Xander\'s intensely. "You can beat me to death, Xander!" She said, her words low but sharp.

Xander felt speechless when he saw Zoey\'s expression was one he had never seen before, a mixture of sadness and happiness. It was as if she was hurt and pleased that Scarlett had caught her almost naked, hugging Xander.

As he looked at Zoey, Xander realized that she was behind everything. This was her plan all along, to create a misunderstanding between him and his wife.

Xander felt a wave of anger envelop him. He couldn\'t believe Zoey could be so manipulative and cruel. He knew he could never love her but realized he had been blind to her true intentions and evilness.

Zoey was thrilled that her plan was working, and Scarlett angrily ran off. For her, nothing else mattered except ensuring that Xander would never love another woman if he couldn\'t be with her.

"As you wish!" Xander replied. A fierce murderous aura immediately emerged from him.

He pulled back his arm, ready to strike Zoey, but something in her smile made him pause. It was as if she was enjoying being hit by him. Zoey looked so submissive, and Xander knew any hit from him would be an enjoyment for this crazy woman.

Before Xander could land the punch, Zoey said calmly, "You can beat me, Xander, but before you do, let me tell you what happened between Rex and Adeline."

Xander froze. 

The mention of Rex and Adeline caught him off guard. He didn\'t expect her to bring up that name now. He felt a sinking feeling in his stomach. He knew that nothing Zoey said would be good. This woman was so manipulative.

Zoey\'s smile grew wider when she saw Xander\'s eyes deepen as if his heart and mind raged.

"Adeline would never betray you, Xander," Zoey said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "And neither would Rex. But do you really want to know what happened between them a few years ago?"

Xander didn\'t know what to say. He felt his world was spinning out of control and didn\'t know who to trust or believe. All he knew was that he wanted to hear the truth.

"I\'ll take your silence as a YES! I\'ll tell you what happened, but we need to sit down!! And I\'m a bit cold right now..." Zoey said with a sly smile — she managed to get this guy to stop chasing his wife. 

She released her grip on Xander\'s thighs and took her shirt and skirt. She put on her clothes while looking at Xander, who was still standing where he was.

"Xander? Shall we sit down?" Zoey said while walking towards him.

"Stop wasting my time! Say it now, or I\'ll kill you for stalling me, Zoey! And I mean it…" Xander shouted angrily. He wanted to chase Scarlett, but he also wanted to know what happened in the past. That thing has been burdening him all this time, destroying his friendship with Rex. Thinking about it has made him very angry with himself.

"Calm down, Xander!" Zoey said with a hint of amusement in her voice. "Adeline and Rex were not wrong. They didn\'t betray you by sleeping together behind your back. But I do have something to confess..."

Xander raised an eyebrow, his anger turning into confusion. "What are you talking about?"

"I couldn\'t stand seeing you with Adeline, and I wanted to have you for myself," Zoey admitted with a sigh. "So, I devised a plan to create a misunderstanding between Adeline and you. I arranged for Adeline and Rex to be alone together and drugged them to make it look like they were cheating on you..."

Xander\'s eyes widened in shock.
