Chapter 29: Who’s That New Intern?
She had been surprised when John had presented her with the heels, but now it all made sense. After all, it was a wise choice. The low-key nude color and the suitable-length heel made it perfect for the office.
“I really like these shoes, and they’re perfectly suitable for work too. Thanks so much!”
Scarlett held the shoes in her arms. She was actually so moved by John’s gesture that she almost wanted to cry.
“Good luck, Scarlett,” John said and then left for class.
As a genuine straight-A student, Scarlett had already completed all the requirements for the Russian major. Not only that, but she had also completed all the required courses. She only needed to take a few more electives, and she would be ready to graduate. With that in min

Scarlett didn’t notice that it was already lunchtime and most of the staff had already left. Leah came over and tapped her table,“Let’s go for lunch! I’m hungry.”Scarlett was still immersed in the magazine; she was now gazing at a new Givenchy bag.“Where?”Leah pulled her up and said,“The office canteen. Come on, hurry up!”When they arrived at the canteen, Scarlett was surprised to see how grand it was. There was also a vast array of different kinds of foods worldwide: Chinese noodles and dumplings, Japanese sushi and ramen, Vietnamese pho, Mexican tacos, Spanish baked seafood with rice, German pork sausages… and th

“Make a good impression on them. It will surely be helpful for your job in the future!” She continued.Scarlett held her head high and flipped her hair. “Oh, don’t worry about me. I'm very good at that!”They soon arrived at the 68th floor, the center of power. High heels stepped on the soft carpet, and people coming and going looked both serious and proud. Scarlett was quite comfortable with life at the very bottom of society and suddenly felt a sense of inferiority here. After all, she was like a fish: she was flexible and could rapidly adapt to all kinds of water conditions.A tall woman in a gray suit stood in front of them, flipped through the folders, and said,“Send these to the reference center, please.”

Francis put down the pen and leaned back in his chair,“Yes, you’re right. I wish I could be so blessed to have a niece like you.”Scarlett nodded with a smile and was about to continue to brag. Francis stopped her in time and asked,“How are you doing this month?”“Great! The colleagues are amiable, and the canteen is terrific. But most importantly, the boss is the best!”“Scarlett!” Francis didn’t buy her adulation.“Honestly, there is nothing to complain about. Well, it would be better if I could go into the kitchen and see how the chef makes that sweet and sour fish!”
Dangerous Desire: The CEO's Hidden Woman Chapter 33: Be Good
The weather was getting colder. Going to work had become an excruciating thing because of the freezing cold. People who lived in the city center were safe, but those who lived in distant suburban areas had to commute. Not only did they have to get up much earlier, but they also spent a whole lot of time stuck in terrible traffic jams. Scarlett was one of those pitiable suburban dwellers. Every morning when her roommates were still fast asleep, Scarlett had to get up, get ready, and then hit the road to get to work.Compared to the hardships she had faced during her childhood, this bitterness was no big deal for Scarlett. At least she was now spending only her own money, and she had already paid off all her debts to her aunt. She wished she could repudiate any connection with the extended Morris family. She wanted to change her last name to Cloud.Right then, Sc

He was worried that she had gotten herself into some trouble, so he asked, “I can lend you however much you ask for, but I need to know what you’re gonna do with the money.”Scarlett kept silent for a while. She then shook Chuck’s shoulders and said, “Can’t you just give me the money?”Chuck put on a serious face, “I take you as a serious friend, so I need to know the reason. I just wanna know you’re not in trouble.”“My brother got a recommendation to go to Cambridge for a doctoral degree.”Chuck was almost choked by a full mouth of whisky when he heard the word Cambridge. “What the fuck,”Scarlett didn’t c
Dangerous Desire: The CEO's Hidden Woman Chapter 35: Let Me Deal Him Personally
Scarlett stole Chuck’s car key when she was in the private room.She was, after all, a genius racer, and speed was her specialty. Because of her eagerness to save her brother, her speed was crazier than ever before. She ran a lot of red lights, and even the traffic police cars were left far behind. All she knew was that Skyler was suffering, and she could not just sit there and wait for Francis to do something about it.Scarlett pulled over in a dimly lit street and picked up old Jim and two of his subordinates. “The gun?” Scarlett asked.Jim patted his waist. “It’s right here, baby.” Scarlett held the steering wheel tightly and shot out again.Jim sat in the passenger seat and asked, “You sure you wanna do this?”

Scarlett raised her chin and looked contemptuously at the man who was lying on his stomach. “He can’t do anything to me now. I can handle him myself. Don’t worry.” Scarlett lifted her gun and aimed it at the man, and Jim ran out with Skyler hoisted over his shoulders.Skyler was afraid for his sister’s safety and kept shouting her name. “You think you can walk out from here?” The man put on a wicked smile. Scarlett stepped forward and kicked him in the face. She stepped on his wrist with one foot. “A remote bomb control? I thought you had some new tricks!”“Listen, I know David Morris caused you and your family great miseries. But that’s just none of my fucking business. We don’t have any connections with that bastard anymore! What did you do this for? Money?”

He didn’t respond. He simply leaned down where Scarlett was lying on the bed and lifted the quilt closer to her chin.“Just stay in bed and get some rest. I’ll deal with you when you’re healthy again. Just rest.”Scarlett had not yet recovered from the immense shock of all that had transpired. She was also extremely exhausted, so she had no energy to fight him. She slipped back into a deep sleep.As she slept, Francis’s eyes fell on the IV drip that was attached to Scarlett, slowly breathing life back into her. He stared at Scarlett. She had been through a lot in the past 24 hours. He held Scarlett’s hand in his own and gently caressed her fingers.He was lost in thought. How come he had decided to fire the gun? What had come ove
