Chapter 19 Show the Attitude
The traffic jam on the road was serious.
Scarlett found that the time for the plane had passed, but Mike picked up the phone and it turned out that he didn’t board the plane.
When she finally arrived at the VIP room breathlessly, she saw Mike sitting there steadily with Daniel aside.
“Mi… Mike!” Panting, she held her waist and looked at Mike happily.
Without a word, Mike pulled her down on the soft leather chair and wiped the sweat on her forehead gently with the handkerchief that carried his manly scent.
Scarlett froze. But she immediately came to a realization when she saw Daniel’s awkward expression.
So Mike was pretending to be kind because there was someone aside.
“I have something to tell you. Will it delay your boarding time?”
When she came in, she had taken a glance at the flight board. It seemed that he had missed the flight.
“No,” Mike said calmly, ignoring the twisted expression on Daniel’s face, “The plane delayed.”
“Oh, that’s great.”
“No! Mrs. Abraham, can’t you hear the prompt? The airport check has finished!” Daniel thought with helplessness. He dared not to say a word in face of Mike’s calm eyes.
“Alright, Mr. Abraham, as long as you are happy!” Daniel thought.
“Why are you looking for me?” Mike threw a glance at Daniel, indicating that he should leave.
Right now, only he and Scarlett were left in the VIP area.
“As to the repair fees of the car, I don’t have that much cash in my hands right now. Can I pay two million first and make the rest in installments?”
“Can you go to jail by installments?”
His words stopped her from continuing on that what was going to say.
“I admit that it was my fault to damage a car, but you have to take part of the responsibility!”
“Oh?” He said with a questioning tone.
“If you didn’t stand me up on purpose that day, I wouldn’t be so angry and find something to vent my anger?”
“You can scratch the wall if you are angry, but you shouldn’t have scratched my car.”
Facing his overly formal expression, Scarlett blurted out in anger.
“Mike, do you really want to push me to the corner? That car means nothing to you. I am not running away from responsibility. All I am asking for is more time.”
“We’ve already divorced. I don’t think there is any relationship between you and me. For a businessman like me, time is money.”
“No relationship? What you have done to me that rainy night was far beyond “relationship”. At that time, we have already divorced. I didn’t even blame you on anything. How could do this to me?”
Her words got something in his eyes changed.
“You do remind me that we have a “relationship”. He gave Scarlett a meaningful look.
It was a normal sentence, but it was somewhat explicit from his mouth.
Hearing this, Scarlett blushed. She put herself together before continuing to negotiate with him.
“Other than immoral behaviors, I am willing to do everything to compensate. Even if we have already divorced, we have been husband and wife for two months after all. Seeing that I did not cause you any trouble, nor did I drag you down with the Lauren Group, can you give me some time and pay it by installments?”
All his response was just fixing his unfathomable eyes on her without a word.
“I am not convinced in this way.”
He said with a slightly cold tone, enough to make many people flinch at him. However, Scarlett was a tough girl. She kept asking, ignoring his deliberate alienation.
“Then tell me, how can I convince you?”
“It’s simple. As long as you …”
His eyes were dangerous and charming, as if they could speak. With his slender fingers rested on her soft little face, the atmosphere seemed to reach its limits.
“Mr. Abraham, an emergency call from City F!” Daniel came in with Mike’s business phone.
The next minute, he immediately caught Mike glaring at him with rage.
Daniel wanted to cry when he came to realize that he had spoiled Mike’s flirtation.
Being a special Daniel was not an easy job nowadays.
Mike’s hand moved to her forehead and flicked it lightly.
“Before I return, think of a way to convince me.”
“Then the time?” She looked at him with her eyes aglow.
“I will inform the lawyer to postpone and wait for me to come back.” He paused and added.
“The premise is that you must be a good girl.”
For example, staying away from bars and hot guys.
On the way back, Scarlett was thinking seriously.
What did the “good” mean?
Every time they had sex before they divorced, he would always hug her before he lost control and whispered to her ear with a “good girl”.
She was “good” indeed. Everything she did was according to “Things About Mike Abraham”.
But he didn’t seem to like her.
After the divorce, he had emphasized the word “good” many times. She was a little confused.
She wondered what kind of girl was “good” to him.
Scarlett had two Line IDs. One had only followed Mike and a few socialites, which she had addressed a proper name and she rarely posted on Moments.
The other was especially for complaining and posting all kinds of photos she took as well. Now she had inquired several friends how to convince men with this ID.
Everyone came up with a lot of ideas, but only the new friend Myke answered strangely.
The best way to convince a man was to have sex with him so that one could have pillow talks.
Scarlett ignored it at the first minute.
The reason that she kept thinking about him these days came down to the contact they had that rainy night.
The aftereffect of that mistake was that she couldn’t sleep well for a long time. She didn’t want to make a second mistake. They had got divorced, so they shouldn’t have physical contact anymore.
In the end, Scarlett decided to take the advice of Miffy as maintaining a low profile.
She sent Mike a message with another Line ID and asked when he would be back. The answer was that he had already reached the airport.
As it seemed impolite to bring up the compensation directly, Scarlett asked if he had had dinner.Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
It might be easier to get things settled during dinner.
At this time, Daniel was reporting to Mike at the airport, holding his luggage in one hand and checking on the itinerary with the other.
“Mr. Abraham, you have a business lunch appointment with Mr. Yates of the Yates Group to discuss the cooperation. I have prepared the documents and you can look through them in the car.”
Mike had buried himself in the phone since he got off the plane. Just as Daniel was about to repeat, Mike’s calm voice came up.
“Cancel it.”
“Mr. Abraham, although Mr. Yates seems to be the one asking for our help, it will also be a huge profit for the Abraham Group once it is done.”
Canceling a meeting that was related to a contract of over a hundred million?
Daniel was shocked.
After typing in a few words on Line, Mike looked up and said in a high-handed tone.
“Show their attitude if they have a request for me!”
Hearing this, Daniel felt a chill down his spine. It seemed that Mike was not saying this to Mr. Yates.
In addition, what was with his hunting eyes?
