Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

Chapter 157: I Will Respect Your Decision



“I’m so sorry to have caused you so much trouble!” Scarlett said as she followed behind Eleanor and tightened her coat to protect against the chilly wind.

“I’m fine. It’s your uncle who is still waiting downstairs in such cold weather. When you get there, you’d better apologize to him.”

“Okay, I got it,” Scarlett said, although she thought it was strange and inappropriate for the RA to try to tell her what’s right and wrong.

Scarlett walked out of the dorm building, and Eleanor went back to her own room.

There was a car parked on a bare tree-lined path, and a man was leaning against the car with a lit cigarette between his fingers. Standing there, he kept looking at the gate of the dorm building, looking very suave and handsome.

When he saw Scarlett walking towards him, he instantly stubbed out the cigarette and flicked the butt into the trash can.

Scarlett walked very slowly because she didn’t want to see Francis. And Francis certainly knew that, so he hastened to walk over to her. He put his arms around Scarlett’s shoulder and asked, “Are you cold?”

She had known from Eleanor that he had waited here for half an hour, so she knew he must be very cold. She looked up at him and then waved his hands away and walked toward the car. She pulled open the backseat door and got in.

Francis had no choice but to follow her to get in the car and sat down next to her.

“Carlos has been waiting for you all day.” He said.

Scarlett said nothing. Her eyes flickered, and then she turned her head to look outside the window.

“I apologize for what happened today. But you have to admit that you also did wrong.” Francis said as he had his back against the seat and crossed his hands.

Scarlett didn’t want to talk to him, but she couldn’t bear it and turned her head to look at him angrily, “What did I do wrong? What are you even talking about?”

“You can’t expect to resolve our quarrel by running away from home. You can beat me or scold me, but you shouldn’t stay out late at night. Do you think you did right?” He stared at her seriously.

“I just don’t want to see you, and I’m not running away from home. The campus is my home, too. Besides, what sense does it make to live in a home where nobody cares about your feelings anyway?” She said.

“Alright, Scarlett, you want to talk about the favor your stepmother requested? Fine, let’s talk about it. Ask me whatever you want. I’ll do my best to answer all of your questions as honestly as possible.

“She is not my stepmother! Don’t you dare call her that? If you do, I won’t forgive you.”

“Alright, fine, I apologize. I’m sorry. What do I call her then? Jenifer Baldwin? I don’t know what I’m supposed to call her, alright?”

Scarlett rolled her eyes at him and calmed herself down.

“Your father, David Morris, is that right? Is that okay for me to say?” he said, “Anyway, he called me and promised me on the phone that if I help Jenifer this time, he and his family aren’t gonna bother you anymore. Never again.”

When she heard that, Scarlett just sneered and stared at Francis, “Do you think the deal is fair? As a father, he used his daughter to get a deal, and you still believed that he could be trusted? It’s so ridiculous to hear that you actually believe he won’t bother me just because you cut this slimy deal. I guess he doesn’t want to see me while he’s alive, and there is no way that he will come to see me first because the existence of my brother and me will keep reminding him of the fact that he abandoned his wife and children. He must be crazy for wanting to see us.”

Francis grasped her cold hands and asked, “If you were me, what do you think you would’ve done? What choice do I have, Scarlett? Please tell me, and I will respect your decision.”

Scarlett bit her lips and said nothing. Francis was still waxing eloquent, “Babe, the world is not as simple as you think. It’s not always black and white. It’s hard to tell the difference between right and wrong, friend and foe. In fact, sometimes, there isn’t much of a difference to begin with. Everybody’s just out to protect themselves. If I can use this small favor to get you and Skyler the peaceful life that you’ve always deserved, then I think it’s all worth it.”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Then what about my mother? Did she die for nothing? I can’t allow that to happen. My mother died because of them, but they lived happily for ten years. Have you considered my feelings at all?”

“If you really want to take revenge on them, it’s a piece of cake.”

Scarlett looked at him in doubt. She didn’t understand what he meant.

“I’ve got a plan, and the favor was all just a part of it. You don’t need to worry about that, just leave it all to me!” He said as he pulled her into his arms and kissed her on the cheek repeatedly.

Scarlett was overwhelmed by his kisses, and then she struggled to push him away and said, “Be clear! What do you mean by that? What are you gonna do?”

Instead of answering her, Francis just kept on kissing her. Scarlett was trapped in his arms. Francis quickly loosened her underwear and slipped his hands in, caressing her thigh and clit. Scarlett was aroused when Francis began to flick her nipples, causing them to stand completely erect. She was blushing now, full of desire.

“Stop it, Francis. We are on public property!”

Suddenly, Scarlett heard footsteps outside. She panicked: what if it was someone she knew? She didn’t want her relationship with Francis to become known by every single student on campus… the thought terrified her.

“Francis,” she breathed hard, “We gotta stop. There’s someone outside.”

Scarlett put her clothes on in a matter of moments.

“I do hope you know that I haven’t forgiven you yet!” She instantly sat up properly and said.
