Chapter 34: Can’t You Just Give Me The Money?
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?”
Dangerous Desire: The CEO's Hidden Woman Chapter 37: Just Rest
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

Scarlett’s fake smile was wiped right off her face as she heard those words. “I don’t know who Johnny is. I only have one brother.”The girl was smart, and she seemed to know just how to get on Scarlett’s nerves. She had impeccable timing, too: she knew to leave right before Scarlett flew into a rage.“Come to visit us if you have time, Scarlett. See you!” She smiled and walked away with her friend.Bell immediately asked, “Who even was that? Wanna tell me what the fuck just happened?”Scarlett knocked back a full glass of icy lemonade to cool herself down. “Claire Morris, of course!”“Wait, what? Morris? Are you related to her? Wait, is she your half-sis

Scarlett took it out carefully and looked at it. It was a luxurious item, so she thought she would fit right in that outfit at Chuck’s birthday party where Irving’s who’s who would certainly be. It was also just the right color– a light pink–for Scarlett to look elegant and refined. “This is it!” Scarlett was pleased with her choice.Scarlett put on the high heels Skyler had bought for her and suddenly realized that she hadn’t yet called Skyler today. She immediately took out her phone and gave Skyler a call.Scarlett could practically hear Skyler’s great resentment of hospital life through the mobile phone, so Scarlett decided to hang the phone up just in time to prevent him from making another request to leave the hospital.Alan was already waiting at the gate

Scarlett was not expecting any of this. She waved her hand and said, “Oh no, no, you don’t have to pay me. I’m just... helping a friend!”Stella raised her eyebrows and looked at Scarlett. This girl was definitely a lot more interesting than she had initially thought she would be.“Oh, that’s really kind of you. But no, I must pay you for your services. Business is business! It wouldn’t be fair not to pay you.”“Oh… well, okay. Alright, call me at any time!”Stella shook her cell phone and said, “I have already got your number from Chuck. Alright, I have to go now, but we’ll connect soon, yeah? See you soon, Scarlett!”“See you then!&rd

Eve seemed to think of something and stared at Scarlett, “Hey, you haven’t told me your name!”“Scarlett, Scarlett Morris.” Scarlett stubbed out her cigarette.“You can’t be related to Claire Morris… Wait, are you?”“You know her?” Looking at Eve, Scarlett was astonished by all these coincidences.“Yep. I know her.”Scarlett leaned against the wall and said, “She’s my step-sister. Are you guys friends?”Eve raised her eyebrows with disdain, “Nope. I’ve got no interest in that kind of girl. It’s just that I often see her at Francis’s house. She's here today. Didn
Dangerous Desire: The CEO's Hidden Woman Chapter 42: She Looks Good
That man who kidnapped Skyler haunted Skyler and me like a nightmare, and he threatened our safety with every moment that he was alive. So I just couldn’t wait to end that nightmare myself…I’m sorry to cause you so much trouble…But I always trust you, I really do…” Scarlett was a little upset. She didn't want Francis to misunderstand the situation or her feelings either.“I promise there won’t be next time.” Scarlett looked up at him with watery eyes.“Never again.” Francis couldn’t help but hold her tight; he wanted Scarlett close to him, always.Scarlett’s heart was beating frantically, and her cheeks flushed red as if she had downed multiple shots of tequila. For this first time, she gazed deeply into Francis’s eyes without any
