Chapter 6 - His Anger

From her point of view, Mike was like coming down from heaves, looking out of reach.

She was drenched all over. She curled up her body, her hair sticking to her face. Looking at this, he frowned.

"Mike..." She looked at him blankly.

The coat with his body temperature suddenly draped over her, and his aura instantly surrounded her. Scarlett looked at him in surprise, as if she had seen an alien.

"What are you standing there for? Get up." Stupid woman!

Mike, who was only wearing a black shirt, still looked handsome.

He gave her his coat which carried a smell of rosin. It warmed her body but made her heart feel sour.

Her mother was just saved from the brink of death. She was in a state of panic. The warm coat made her feel fragile. Big tears kept falling. She did not want to lose her composure in front of him, but she could not control herself anymore.

"Things About Mike Abraham," said that Mike hated women crying the most.

It was said that there was an ex-girlfriend who ran up to him and cried, but he kicked her out.

Scarlett knew that she should withdraw her tears and try her best to beg him, but her overly tense emotions were difficult to control. And the more anxious she was, the more she could not hold back.

The rain turned into a torrential downpour, and the sky began to flash with lightning. In a trance, she heard his helpless sigh.

Then, a big hand gently fell on her face, gently wiping away the tears on it.

Scarlett felt like she was hallucinating.

Before, no matter how wronged she was, she did not dare to show any of it in front of him, let alone something like crying which would cause him to feel disgusted.

But after divorce, he actually wiped her tears?

She widened her eyes and slightly opened her mouth, which seemed to please him. A faint smile appeared in his eyes.

Was it an illusion? How could he smile?

Scarlett subconsciously took a step back. She was used to him being busy and cold. The only moment that she felt he was a man was when he was making love with her.

His sudden abnormality made her feel helpless and she even wondered if she had been in the rain for too long and had an illusion.

There was a stone on the side of the road. She didn't see that and she sprained her ankle. She cried out in alarm and fell to the side. He held her up, and with a faint smell of alcohol, he instantly besieged her.

"Stupid." His tone was full of disdain.

Scarlett was embarrassed and wanted to break free from his arms, but she was warned by him.

"Behave yourself. If you move again, both of us will get wet!"

He spoke coldly but acted softly. Scarlett had never seen him like this. He was too abnormal. He hugged her tightly, making her heart beat a little faster.

"You're silly all day long." Mike slipped his hands from her shoulder to her waist, holding her and walking to the car.

The chill was dispelled by his coat. The place where he was holding her felt very hot. It spread to the whole body, and her face was a little hot.

Although he would hug her like this when they attended an event together before, it seemed like he had never been like this before, making her feel uneasy.

She smelt the alcohol on his body and suddenly understood.

He must be drinking.

Right, only drunk men would be so abnormal. This meant that her chance came!

Scarlett asked tentatively.

"Mike, you drank a lot of?"

"Yes."

He already walked to the front of the car. He opened the door and motioned her to get in.

When he got into the car, he grabbed the remote control and raised the temperature a little higher.

"Is it hard?"

"Yes."

"Then, are you drinking on an empty stomach? Did you eat on time?"

"Are you concerned about me?" He asked, happy to hear her concern.

In the narrow space, the two sat side by side. His arm rested on her shoulder. Under the dim light of the car, the atmosphere was a little ambiguous. Although she felt kind of award, she could feel that he was in a very good mood at the moment.

Wine, exhaustion at work, and an empty stomach changed him so much.

Scarlett had never seen him drink so much. But he was more charming and a little dangerous, making it difficult to escape.

She felt that she might have been a little drunk by the smell of alcohol on his body and her brain was a little dizzy.

His eyes caught her uneasy behavior. He held her shoulder with one arm and took the towel from the shelf with the other. Just as he was about to hand it to her, she fell into his arms and leaned her whole body in his arms.

"What's the matter?" He thought that she was sad, and he moved his hands to her head to test the temperature.

"Mike ... I miss you very much." She leaned in his arms. Mike snorted softly, looking proud. But he wiped her hair with a special gentleness.

When he put on a long face, he was very attractive. In order to avoid being captured by his male charm, Scarlett quickly cut to the chase.

"Mike, can you help the Lauren family for the sake that I miss you? I didn't even touch the money you gave me. I can return it to you. I don't want anything. I only want you..."

Mike was still enjoying the moment a second ago, but in the next second, he turned into a mad and furious devil.

Scarlett felt her hair being pulled by him. He threw the towel hard on her face and stopped wiping raindrops for her.

Pulling the towel away, she took a deep breath. Mike's current expression was even more sinister and fierce than the storm outside.

She thought that he would be easier to talk to when he was drunk... But it was obvious now that he was not. His current appearance seemed to be more terrifying than when she mentioned divorce.

"Miss me?" He gritted his teeth and glared at this reckless woman.

This expression clearly meant that if you dared to lie, you would be dead!

Scarlett endured the fear of being glared at by him. Thinking of her mother, she nodded her head heavily.

Mike laughed in anger.

"Scarlett, you have to be honest. If you lie, you will be struck by lightning!"

As if to confirm his words, there was a sudden clap of thunder. Scarlett's face turned white, still not understanding why he suddenly changed his face.

She finally saw him and didn't want to give up such an opportunity. She gathered her courage and continued, "I really ... really miss you."

Mike sneered, "Do you miss me or do you want me to help you solve the problem of the Lauren Group?"

Of course, she wanted him to help the Lauren Group, but the shrewd man seemed to value benefits very much. Every time she mentioned this, he would fly into a rage.

"I was thinking of you." For the sake of her mother, she was not afraid of being struck by lightning!

"Good, very good." Mike narrowed his eyes in anger and said coldly, "Prove it to me. Let's see how you miss me!"

"Here? We're almost home, or..." Scarlett looked at the driver in the front seat awkwardly. They were all adults, so she naturally understood what he meant.

"Right now, right here!" He ruthlessly interrupted her and said with a sarcastic tone, "Shouldn't you show your sincerity when you ask for help? Ms. Lauren deliberately approached me and went against your conscience, pretending cordiality.... Don't you have this little courage?"
