Chapter 54 - Like!

Both pleasant and unpleasant comments?

"The pleasant one first," Scarlett said.

"This woman has a broken relationship with her husband and can't turn the page."

Scarlett immediately denied it.

"They have no feelings for each other even when they were married, and certainly there will be no divorce. Speak the unpleasant one."

"This woman is just a bitch. She possesses this man without giving others the chance to get close to him. She wants to play hard to get, but she doesn't want to fulfill a wife's obligations when she enjoys sex with him!"

Her words became more unpleasant, and Scarlett could not bear to hear them.

"I didn't!" Sensing that Miffy was looking at her, she tried to cover her guilt and coughed, "I mean, my cousin didn't do it!"

"Weren't you talking about my cousin?"

"The details don't matter! I mean, why did you describe me, no, my cousin as a bad woman?"

She didn't enjoy sex with him!

Although she did feel very good, in the beginning, she resisted it!

"If your cousin didn't have feelings for her ex-husband, how could she take the initiative to propose a divorce and have sex again and again after it? She either likes his soul or his body. In short, if a she is unwilling, no man can take advantage of her."

"Of course, that is what he forced her to do. He has done it several times!" Scarlett felt that her confidence was getting weaker.

Miffy's words seemed to have reminded her of some things that she never wanted to think about.

"Forced? Well, then ask your cousin later. Ask her if she has ever let her ex-husband..." Miffy put on a gossipy look.

Scarlett had just raised her cup and taken a sip, and she immediately choked on her words.

She coughed and looked at Miffy in disbelief.

"Miffy, what did you say?"

"We're both married. Why are you still so ignorant like when you were in school? What kind of position does Mike like?"

"He would use every position, and basically, he will make them varied! Damn, you bewitched me! Why did I say this!"

Scarlett patted her face, ignoring Miffy's meaningful smile. She pretended to be calm.

"My cousin told me that she has... What does that have to do with your judgment?" She tried to change the topic.

"Scarlett, when you are free, you should read more books on the structure of the human body. If a woman resists, that kind of posture will not work unless the man is tied up. If he runs away so easily, nothing will happen."

Scarlett immediately thought of the "harmonious" scenes between her and Mike.

Why didn't she run away when she was at the stairs? That was because Mike didn't tie her up.

She forced herself to think that maybe she had good intentions and was afraid that he would fall as the result of her struggle?

Then, why didn't she run when she was in the bathroom?

There was no way to justify herself.

"But my cousin clearly said that she doesn't like her ex-husband. She was very happy when they divorced."

"Scarlett, you don't know much about love. Between men and women are not pure hatred or absolute love. Like and hatred can be interchanged when reaching its limit."

Like.

Like?

Like!

It was like lightning that struck Scarlett until her face turned pale. How could she possibly like Mike?

"But when she got married, she didn't want it, do you understand? Then, after the divorce, their relationship became messy and unclear. The situation was complicated. When they were together, they had no feelings for each other and when they were separated, there would be even fewer feelings, right?"

Scarlett struggled to find a reason not to convince Miffy, but to convince herself.

"Why not? Relationships will change. Maybe it is because they can't control the situation when they get married that they don't have chemicals for each other. But after the divorce, she is free, and she can appreciate his kindness."

His kindness? What was so good about him? Scarlett immediately thought of many evil deeds Mike had done.

He was temperamental and would turn hostile at any time. He would be arrogant and would not let others know what he was thinking. He was pretentious and troublesome. He was obsessed with cleanliness. He was also an evil capitalist who would deduct his employees' wages at will!

However, he appeared in time after she was beaten.

He backed her up when attending the banquet.

He took her to the doctor though he was the one who injured her foot.

Also, when she vomited blood and almost died, he showed up from nowhere. She could still remember the sense of security she felt when she was in his arms.

What Miffy said made Scarlett want to refute, but she didn't know what to say.

"Anyway, my cousin will never like her ex-husband, never!" She was too inexperienced in dealing with feelings.

The special family made her long for feelings but not believe in them. She looked strong, but some parts of her were so soft.

"Let nature take its course and this rule applies to everyone. Follow your heart and don't be in a hurry to determine your feelings. Like or hatred, it doesn't matter. As long as she forgets about their dilemma in the past and treats him like an ordinary man, everything will be fine."

Miffy patted the stupefied Scarlett and continued to gossip, "Tell me about your guy. How many times will you have sex in a week? How long does it last?"

"I'm sorry, Miffy. I can't stay with you today. I have to go back." Scarlett picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp.

Her mind was in a mess right now. Miffy's words were like a small knife hollowing her heart.

She couldn't wait to find a place to think about it.

The best way to think was to eat.

The spicy food had become a painful memory for her, so Scarlett went out and took a taxi straight to the street where the high school she studied in was.

It was almost 8 o'clock. Most of the stalls had closed up, leaving a few for snacks. Scarlett found her favorite fried potato pancake stall.

"Sir, I want four pancakes!"

Perhaps, if she ate four in one go, she would be able to understand the feelings between her and Mike.

"I'm sorry, miss. They were all sold out."

"But there are four in the pot!" Scarlett could smell the pancake.

"Well, it was reserved. Look, he's here!"

On the left side of Scarlett was a pair of white soft leather shoes. It looked expensive. Scarlett turned around and put her hands together.

"Sorry, sir, can you share half of the pancakes with me? You can't eat so much by yourself, can you? I have something I can't figure out, and then..."

Scarlett looked up and froze.

Under the dim light from the street lamps, Richard's face was warm and handsome, like a hint of coolness in the scorching summer. At this moment, he was smiling at Scarlett.

"Scarlett, you still keep the habit of eating when you are in a bad mood."
