Chapter 171 The wife of The Head of Abraham Village
Hans had never expected to see Scarlett so ruthless. Scarlett had just kicked precisely on his ball.
He bent down in pain. But he could put his hand on his ball in public. It hurt so much that he almost cursed.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“You are a …”
“Beauty? Thanks for the compliment!”
Scarlett held her head up high and smiled.
“You should be glad that my husband didn’t see what you did. Otherwise, you will be greeted with more than a kick!”
Scarlett ignored Hans’ painful expression and left.
“Damn you, woman!” Hans cursed with gritted teeth. He looked at Scarlett darkly.
Hans exchanged a dark look with the waiter at the door to confirm that everything was as planned before he pushed the door and got in.
When Mike saw Scarlett’s expression as she entered the door, he knew Scarlett was not someone to cross.
“What did you do?” Mike looked curiously at her.
Scarlett blinked. “What can I do? I am just a girl!”
“Hans, what’s wrong?” Anna asked.
‘The way he walked seems a bit strange.’
The place between his legs was still hurting.
“Nothing…” Hans gritted his teeth as he glared at Scarlett.
Mike understood everything. He raised his eyebrows and turned to Scarlett. “You didn’t…”
Scarlett blinked innocently. What if I did?
‘Very well.’ Mike nodded.
Scarlett and Mike did all the communication without exchanging a word. Anna was again impressed by how well Scarlett and Mike got on with each other.
“Mike, the dessert is superb. You should try it,” Anna said.
Mike and Scarlett knew it was coming.
Anna and Hans were about to make the big move.
Scarlett thought that Anna and Hans were going to give up after a long time of expecting.
Previously, Scarlett had only seen this kind of conspiracy on TV. Now that she was going to experience it in person, she felt pity for Anna and Hans for not having jobs in acting.
Scarlett wouldn’t have seen any clues without Mike’s intelligence.
However, on a closer look, it was still possible to see something abnormal.
Although Anna made her tone sound as natural as possible, her hands holding the knife and fork were trembling.
Hans, on the other hand, took a sip of his drink to hide his excitement.
The Marchioness was no longer here. The Marchioness said she had something to do and left when Scarlett excused herself for the ladies’ room.
In other words, she had proof that she was not present regardless of whether Anna and Hans succeeded or not.
The room was very quiet.
Mike was still calm; his face was expressionless as usual. Scarlett suddenly felt the pain for him.
He had grown up in such a complicated environment.
‘People see Mike as a ruthless man. But they don’t see what he has gone through to become who he is.’
As Scarlett was thinking, the waiters came in with sliver plates to serve the final dessert.
“Mike, you should really try the dessert. I know you don’t like sweet food, so I asked them to go easy on the sugar.”
Anna’s voice sounded both nervous and excited.
‘I am only one step away from success!’ Anna thought to herself.
“If it’s not very sweet. He won’t like it,” Scarlett said.
Scarlett didn’t mean to say it to make Anna awkward, but she couldn’t help it. ‘Mike could not live without the sweets and the desserts. He even adds extra icing on Strawberry Daifuku. And you are telling me he doesn’t like sweet food?’
As Anna was glaring at Scarlett angrily, Mike took a piece of cake from his plate and fed it to Scarlett.
Scarlett also picked up a dessert from her own plate.
‘Come, hubby, I’ll feed you!’
The most painful thing in the world was not knowing other people’s schemes and staying silent.
It was knowing their scheme and acting as they had planned.
Mike had already guessed that something was added to the dessert.
Scarlett played along and showed off her affection to provoke Anna.
When Scarlett and Mike were feeding each other, Anna looked very uncomfortable.
“Why aren’t you eating?” Scarlett turned to ask Anna and Hans.
Anna and Hans exchanged a confused look between them. ‘Why haven’t Scarlett and Mike passed out?’
The medicine probably still needed time to work. Anna and Hans had to eat too to stop Mike and Scarlett from being suspicious.
Their desserts, according to their plan, were not drugged.
But Anna and Han both lost balance soon after their first bites.
Scarlett immediately took out her phone to take pictures. She heard two thuds just before she opened her camera.
Anna and Hans fell onto the table together, completely unconscious.
Scarlett sighed.
“What a pity! I wanted to grab the moment they passed out.”
As a photographer, Scarlett still couldn’t believe she was too slow to capture the big moment Anna and Hans collapsed on the table.
It would be difficult to come across an opportunity like this again.
After all, not many people who plot would be so stupid.
Scarlett took two photos of Anna and Hans.
Scarlett built a folder called “Weirdos in the Abraham Village” on her phone.
Mike snapped his fingers and a few bodyguards immediately came in.
The bodyguards took Anna and Hans out.
Mike happened to see the strange name that Scarlett had set on the file which made the corners of Mike’s mouth twitch.
“What kind of name is that?”
‘Abraham Village’?
“You are going to inherit the title of Marquis in the future. Then you will take over the fief, right? Isn’t the fief a large piece of land with people?”
Mike shook his head and decided to let Scarlett have it her way.
‘It was adorable that Scarlett described the fief everyone wants as a big village.’
Mike gritted his teeth when he saw what Scarlett did later.
Scarlett changed the name of her Line to “the wife of the head of Abraham Village”.
‘What?’
‘Is she serious?’
Scarlett grunted as she walked out with Mike.
“Mike, how many more crazy family members do you have? I think I need to be warned.”
Mike showed Scarlett a finger. Scarlett let out a sigh of relief.
“One? That’s not a lot. I could live with that.”
‘It seemed that the file that I had set up for the weirdos would not be of much use.’
Mike shook his head. “A dozen of people.”
Scarlett was shocked. “How did you survive all this?”
‘There is barely anyone he could trust?’
Mike shrugged. It was the very reason he had been helping Scarlett to get better at attacking.
“I need to build a few more folders. If you knock down one of them, I will take a photo. We will see how big the collection will be.”
Scarlett wondered whether her phone had enough capacity.
“Mike, do you think I should expand the memory of my phone?”
‘Nonsense!’
