Chapter 71 - She Became Good Friends With Her Love Rival

The things Scarlett experienced today were all exciting. She was going to Miffy's to regain her peace of mind.

However, Miffy's words made her even more confused.

She wondered if she fell in love with Mike.

Standing outside the Dior store, she looked at the exquisite models in the display window and thought about the wardrobe of clothes that Mike had given her.

Why did he threaten her and yet do so much for her?

Was it possible that she liked Mike a little, and Mike ... liked her a little too?

Thinking of this, she felt her heart racing.

Thinking about it, she suddenly saw a girl walking out of the store. The girl carried many bags and she looked very familiar.

She ... seemed to be Richard's fiancée, Elaine.

When Elaine saw Scarlett, she ran away with the bag. After running for a few second, she felt that she should not be the guilty one, so she turned back.

Scarlett felt that this girl was quite cute, but she did not know that there was a reason for Elaine's strange behavior.

Just now, a private detective sent a set of photos to Elaine, who was shopping. It was the photo of Scarlett meeting Richard two hours ago, and he was holding her.

"Can we ... have a talk?" Elaine did not expect that she would meet Scarlett here.

"Me?" Scarlett pointed at herself. She wondered why Elaine would like to talk to her.

A few minutes later, two women sat face to face in a coffee shop.

Elaine thought of many kinds of opening remarks. She was about to explode when she saw the photo.

She thought about many scenes of catching the mistress.

However, when she sat face to face with Scarlett, the scenes that she had imagined could not be realized.

Because she found it hard to hate Scarlett.

Scarlett waited quietly for a while. Seeing that Elaine was silent, she took the initiative to ask.

"Elaine, do you have something to say to me?"

"How can I be so polite to my love rival? I mean..."

Elaine was preparing her opening speech when Scarlett interrupted her and accidentally spoke her mind.

Seeing that Scarlett was shocked, she took out a few photos from her bag and silently handed them to her.

She didn't know how to say, so she just showed Scarlett the photos.

Scarlett took over them. The photos were of Richard holding her. They were taken just now.

Seeing this, Scarlett immediately asked.

"How much did you spend on these?"

"50,000," Elaine replied numbly.

"It's so expensive! You should ask them to refund you some money. Look, I look so ugly in the photos. They are not good at taking photos!"

Scarlett pointed out a few questions from a professional point of view, patting the camera she carried with her.

"Next time you have such a business, give me 500 and I will take a beautiful picture for you!"

A photographer could not tolerate the poor photographic skills in the early stages or that the pictures taken were not modified later.

Elaine was stunned. She wondered why Scarlett was so strange.

She thought Scarlett should be very nervous, or just like the women in the TV series who were caught by the legal wife. Scarlett should feel angry and humiliated and she should scold her.

Why was Scarlett so sincere?

"Give me the phone number of the person who took the photos. I'll go bargain with him and ask him to give you back a portion of the money. I just can't stand these people who swindle money from customers!"

"No, thanks!" Elaine answered reflexively, but immediately realized that she shouldn't thank her "love rival".

Scarlett saw her expression and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Elaine felt it strange.

"I laughed that Mike always said that I was silly. But I think that's because he didn't see you."

With several simple words, she confused Elaine.

Elaine was even more stupid than her and was a little cute.

"Mrs. Abraham, I think Mr. Abraham treats you well. Can you stop contacting Richard? I like him very much and I don't want to leave him."

Elaine summoned up her courage and spoke out her thoughts.

"Alright."

Scarlett readily agreed.

"I like him, please... Wait, you agree?"

Elaine thought about many possible situations she might encounter in her mind, but not this.

"Why not?" Scarlett said very readily.

In fact, she was also very curious why she could still calmly joke with Elaine, her childhood sweetheart's fiancée.

Maybe they just hit it off. Or she had let go.

"Really?" Elaine could not believe it.

"Even if you didn't look for me today, I wouldn't have done anything more than friends with him. We didn't start a relationship back then, and we will not start."

"Elaine, do you like him?"

"I pursued him for four years before he agreed to be engaged with me, but I could not feel how much he liked me."

Elaine did not know why she told Scarlett these private things.

They inexplicably got along with each other as if they had known each other for a long time.

Scarlett thought for a moment and said, "In fact, Richard is a very easy person to get along with."

"You two..." Elaine couldn't help but ask.

"I had a good impression of him when I was in high school, but we never started a relationship. So don't worry. We are just friends."

Elaine breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not what she thought. She believed what Scarlett said was true.

The two women found something to talk about because of Richard. Although their identities were awkward when they first met, after chatting for a while, they unexpectedly got along with each other and they talked about other things besides Richard.

Coincidentally, they seemed to have a lot of common hobbies. They both liked to travel and watch TV dramas. They even liked the same idols.

"Scarlett, will you blame me for secretly taking photos of you? I'm sorry. I wasn't nice to you. I thought you were going to steal Richard from me."

After chatting for a while, Elaine was no longer as wary of Scarlett as before.

Originally, she wanted to find fault with her, but after chatting for a while, they became friends.

"It doesn't matter. If someone were to hug Mike like this, I would..." Scarlett suddenly covered her mouth.

Heavens, what did she say?

No! No! No! She must have had too many sex-related dreams recently, and she had hallucinations!

Elaine did not know what Scarlett was thinking.

She said, "Mr. Abraham is good to you. Look at the limited edition Dior on you. My father ordered it for me when it was just released, but I didn't get it. So it was with you."

"You mean that this piece of clothing is not a high-quality imitation?" Scarlett suddenly thought of what Miffy had said. How could Mike give her a knockoff? If this clothing was true, would it prove that Mike liked her?

Scarlett suddenly became nervous.

Speaking of clothes, Elaine became very professional.

"How could it be a high-quality imitation? I studied fashion design. Although I'm not as good as you in terms of photographing, I know a lot about clothes. Look, there are signs of the designer's hand embroidery.. These are unique marks. It can't be faked!"
