Pampered by the Demon

Scarlett quickly leaped out of the bed and picked up her nightgown. Without looking back, she ran into the toilet.

Mike stared at the bloodstain in a daze.

“It really comes in a wrong time!” he complained disappointedly.

Being interrupted by such a reason was torture to Mike and Scarlett.

Mike had to restrain his strong desire for her, while Scarlett felt ashamed.

Sitting in the toilet, she buried her face in her hands. She could feel that her face was burning.

The embarrassment drove her crazy.

“Ah!” she screamed.

In fact, she had never found herself in such an awkward situation before!

Not only did she almost fall into his male charm, but she also stained his silk bed sheets with her blood!

If possible, she wanted to run away right away.

Meanwhile, she couldn’t help but worry about her salary. She knew that Mike was a neat freak, so she was sure that he would definitely not let her go this time!

But now, what she had to consider was not Mike’s reaction, but an awkward situation!

She didn’t take a sanitary pad with her.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

She was caught unprepared, and she didn’t expect that her period would come in advance. She had sex with Mike in the rain a few days ago and she had taken a pill afterward. She thought this caused the disorder of her period.

Sitting there in silence, Scarlett was at a loss of how to get out of the current situation.

She really didn’t have the courage to ask Mike to buy a pad for her. After thinking for a while, she decided to use a tissue to handle it briefly and then go to the convenience store downstairs.

After that, she dawdled in the toilet for a while and then went out. When she opened the door of the toilet, she was shocked by the scene in front of her. Mike was changing the sheet there.

“You actually know how to do housework?” she asked in disbelief.

In her memory, Mike was either busy with a bunch of official documents with a cold face or flirted with her.

This was the first time she had seen him doing housework!

“Of course!” Mike said after casting a glare at Scarlett. It was easy to change the sheet. How could he not know how to do it?

Scarlett looked at the tidy bed carefully, feeling that he did it much better than the servant.

In the past, she just thought that he was a neat freak. But now, she realized that habit had brought him something else. For example, he was careful when he changed the sheet. Scarlett couldn’t even find a fold on the sheet.

“I had thought that you were just a workaholic who knows nothing else but the work…” Scarlett took the initiative to chat with Mike.

Mike put on a faint smile and knocked on her head gently.

“When I was studying abroad, I take care of myself,” he said lightly.

Scarlett was shocked again. She didn’t see such information from the document she got from her family.

In her eyes, Mike was a man born with a silver spoon in his mouth, but she had never thought that he was no different from ordinary people in private.

After the divorce, she seemed to see another Mike who was different from the one she used to be familiar with.

“Hey, what are you thinking? Lie down and have a rest,” Mike called Scarlett as he saw that she was in a daze. Even though he couldn’t have sex with her now, he still remembered the doctor’s advice.

Scarlett needed more rest.

“I want to go out for a while,” Scarlett said as she thought of the sanitary pad!

“No, according to the doctor, you have to rest for at least four days,” Mike refused her request.

“But, I-I didn’t…” Scarlett prevaricated.

Her voice sank.

“If you feel pity for what happened just now, I can give you a chance to fulfill your promise when you recover,” Mike said with a mischievous smile.

Looking at his smile, Scarlett gritted her teeth.

“I don’t have a sanitary pad! I need to buy it!” she shouted impatiently.

Mike was stunned.

After a while, he pushed Scarlett to the bed and ordered, “Well, you have to rest. I’ll buy it.”

“What?” Scarlett muttered under her breath.

She was dumbfounded.

Mike grabbed his wallet and put on a cold look to hide his embarrassment. After that, he threatened, “Lie down here. If I find out that you haven’t taken a rest as the doctor said, I will punish you!”

Scarlett was rendered speechless. The moment Mike opened the door, Scarlett finally came to her sense.

She shouted at him, “Although your plan was disrupted by my period, you still have to pay me two months’ salary.”

Mike turned his head and glared at her. The cold look on his face was capable of striking fear into Scarlett’s heart.

“You said that one should keep his words…” Scarlett continued with a flustered look. In fact, she sensed the embarrassment hidden behind his cold look just now. That’s why she dared to talk about the salary again.

That’s the nature of human beings. Scarlett was no exception. She was shy and angry before. But shortly after she won a round, she immediately took the opportunity to continue provoking Mike. Mike said nothing more, but turned around and walked out.

“Hey! You have to buy the type that can be stuck on my underwear. Don’t buy the wrong one!” Scarlett said in a hurry.

However, Mike didn’t stop.

He slammed the door and left.

Scarlett burst into laughter as she thought of the expression on Mike’s face.

It didn’t take Mike much time. When he returned to the room, he threw a huge bag to Scarlett.

“Did the clerk look at you strangely when you paid the bill?” Scarlett asked as if she didn’t see his long face.

Mike cast a cold look at her.

Originally, Scarlett was very afraid of his cold look, but after what happened today, she suddenly felt that Mike looked lovely when he put on a cold look.

“I guess she must be thinking why there is a person who was so heartless to refuse a handsome man and even ask him to buy a sanitary pad,” Mike replied.

Scarlett, who had been too pleased with herself, was rendered speechless.

“Are you hinting at me to have sex with you despite the fact that I have a period now?” Scarlett asked lightly.

Apparently, Scarlett had learned a lesson from her previous experience. Now, she could capture the meaning behind Mike’s casual words.

However, she didn’t give Mike time to answer her. She picked up the sanitary pad and rushed into the toilet.

Considering Mike’s thick-skinned character, Scarlett ran away and didn’t want to argue about that topic again.

But after what happened today, she had a better impression of Mike.

Although Mike looked cold, she didn’t think he was an indifferent person. She was sure that he would never be indifferent to her as long as she didn’t go too far.

She didn’t expect that Mike, a man with a hypocritical obsession with cleanliness didn’t get angry with her after she had dirtied his bedsheet. What’s more, he took the initiative to buy a sanitary pad for her regardless of his identity as a president of a listed company.

All this showed Mike’s charm as a gentleman. Now, Scarlett didn’t regard Mike as a heartless ex-husband. Instead, she treated him as a demanding but a little cute boss.

Four days later, Scarlett regained her freedom.

The past few days had been unusually quiet, because her phone had been confiscated by Mike. What’s more, he told her that no one called her.

When she finally got the phone, she checked it immediately. The expression on her face froze as soon as she saw dozens of missed calls.

“What a cunning man! He put my phone in silent mode,” Scarlett complained.

She quickly browsed through the number of missed calls. Fortunately, there were no calls from the sanatorium. This was good news. It seemed that her mother’s mood was stable.

The ten of the remaining calls were from Miffy who was her best friend and partner, and the remaining thirty-two were all from the telephone of the Lauren’s.

Scarlett knew that she had to face it. After suppressing the disgust towards the Laurens, she called back.

“Where have you been? You haven’t answered the phone for so many days!” Allen’s shrill voices sounded as soon as the phone connected.

“I’m sick,” Scarlett answered lightly.

“You are the same as your mother who is nothing but a madman! Neither of you can be counted on at the critical moment! I have something urgent to talk to you about. Come back immediately!” Allen cursed and ordered impatiently. In the past few days, he had been so anxious that he was almost going crazy.

Perhaps it was because Scarlett had been lying on Mike’s bed for a few days, she was influenced by Mike’s character. She got angry at Allen’s curses, especially when she heard him insult her mother.

“I’m in another city now and can’t go back,” she said flatly. She didn’t need him to tell her what to do.

“How dare you talk to me like that? I order you to return immediately!” Allen shouted.

Scarlett grabbed the paper on the desk next to her and rubbed it to make a noise. “I can’t hear you well. I will call back later,” Scarlett said and hung up the phone.
