Suddenly, a figure emerged from the shadows. Scarlet's heart skipped a beat as she saw Peter's face.But it couldn't be. Peter was dead. Don Marco's men had killed him. She heard the gunshot.Scarlet shifted back as Peter approached her. Scared she was seeing a ghost."It's me, Peter. Don't be scared, Scarlet." He groaned, holding his right arm which was bleeding."I managed to defeat those men. I'm wounded though, but I need to get you out of here.""Stay away from me, you bloody liar." Scarlet screamed, moving away from him hastily."Scarlet please. You need to believe me. I know I lied to you, I know I was sent by Don marco but trust me, I never wante

“How do you feel now, Scarlet?” Lucas asked, taking a seat beside her.Scarlet heaved a sigh, “How did you find me? By the way, I'm fine. I'm good.” Lucas gave a slight chuckle. He knew Scarlet must be wondering how he got to know about her kidnapping and how he rescued her. But who wouldn't rescue the woman one loves, when she's in danger.“I saw it on the news. You were missing. I organized a search party led by the police. It took them a while but I'm glad we were able to find you.”“Do you know who was behind your kidnapping?” Lucas sounded as though he was trying to tell her something and not ask her a question. “Why do you ask?” Scarlet sounded aloof and wondered why Lucas was interested in the topic. She knew he also thought Peter was behind her kidnapping.“It was Peter, your driver.” Scarlet was not willing to sit and hear everyone blame Peter for something he obviously didn't do or wasn't willing to do. A part of her was still willing to believe Peter's word even though s

Scarlet and Peter sat down in the small living room of the house, surrounded by quietness and security. Scarlet glared at Peter, waiting for him to continue talking."Don Marco, years ago, I witnessed him going to a rich man to seek money just to cure his wife, who he claimed to be my mother. He was denied access and that was how mother died. Then for days, he was in the hospital due to a sickness and just because he needed money, he went to a construction site even while sick, just to get money for my sister and I. He had a stroke which didn't affect him much. He could still move around..."Scarlet kept on listening, without saying a word. "But then, people rushed over to our house one day and said dad had died. The building collapsed due to it being burnt down to ashes. I was left with just my sister. Who was killed by a hit and run, on her way back from school, one evening. This, I witnessed and It was the same man who denied dad access to lending him money. It turned out it was

The air was hot which made her face flushed and her vision blurry, she looked at the heap of clothes on the bed and her heart sank. She had been washing all day and her fingers were bruised.

She was used to her si

The next day, Scarlet was nursing the wounds she had sustained the night before when she heard footsteps approaching. Loud chaotic noises accompanied the footsteps.“The Bloody idiot, where the hell is she? I know you are in there, you evil witch.”Scarlet recognized her mother-in-law's voice. She struggled to get up in a bit to lock her door but she was not so fast. Her mother-in-law was in her room already.Turning to face her, she watched as Rachel strode over to her, glaring at her, in a deadly way.“You are so evil. What has the poor child done to you.”“I did nothing to her. She started the trouble after I saw her in Lucas' bed.” Scarlet said weakly.“She can't stoop so low to fight you, Scarlet. Maria is not a lowlife like you. You are just jealous of her because Lucas loves and prefers her to a scumbag like you.” Scarlet knew no amount of explanation was going to exonerate her. She stood there, dejected and overwhelmed with nothing to prove her innocence.The door flung open

She knew how angry Lucas can get and she was not ready for it.“What was that all about ?” Lucas asked Maria.“Wh what what?” She stammered.“Why were you causing problems?” He shouted, banging the wall with his fist.Maria was scared. She knows lying was not going to help her get out of the situation.“I only wanted to have a discussion with her. I didn't mean to cause any trouble.” her forehead glistened with sweat.

Just let it go.”“Scarlet sure has the nerves. How could she pronounce divorce? Good riddance anyways. I'm glad she's gone already. You and I can finally have our marriage.

Lucas POVMaria and Lucas were arguing inside his office.“I needed to get some designer clothes for myself and I tried to use your credit card but it declined. The pin was incorrect. When did you change your pin and why?” She asked Lucas.Lucas was scribbling on his notepad trying to complete the work for the day. Without looking up, he said, “You spend recklessly, I sweat myself out to make money yet you squander it as you like. Scarlet doesn't do this. She doesn't.”Maria scoffed, her voice was filled with fury, “You dare compare me with Scarlet now? She wanted a divorce and she left, you don't have to beat yourself up over it, transferring your aggression to me. I bet she can't even survive out there. She'll surely come back when she has nothing else to feed on after the money she stole is exhausted.”“Enough, Scarlet never stole from me. She doesn't steal.”, He glared at her, his eyes red, “She's still my wife and you've got no right to talk about her in such a manner.” “Wife yo
