Pampered by the Demon

“What plan?”

“The plan for your new phone. I didn’t steal it! Mike, believe me, I got close to you for a reason in the first place, but not now. I didn’t steal it. For real.”

The pressure from the past few days had finally caused Scarlett to break down into tears.

When Mike heard this, he finally understood that her menstrual disorder had caused her internal secretion to go out of control.

She seemed to be weak, but she took so many things alone.

Scarlett was in tears.

She knew that she should not talk about the plan.

After all, she married Mike to escape the threat brought by her family in the first place. She didn’t love him.

But she wasn’t stupid. After so many years of being together, she had seen clearly who was good to her and who was bad to her.

Allen was her father but he never gave her any love.

She needed to work so that she could live and eat at the Lauren’s.

And she had to marry Mike so that Allen agreed to pay her mother’s medical expenses.

Allen also used her mother to threaten her again and again.

Mike seemed ruthless but he did not really hurt her.

He was the first one who treated her so well except for her mother during her lifetime.

He bought her snacks that she liked to eat.

He saved her when she was about to die of illness.

His feelings for her were like a master’s possessive desire for a pet.

But for Scarlett, such kind of feeling was better than the cold and selfish treatment she got from her father.

When she said this now, her heart was filled with desperation.

Nobody would believe what she said, right? As long as they were normal.

After all, Allen was her father, and she had done something like this before. Now that she said this to Mike, no matter what her real purpose was, she seemed to pass the buck.

But she really wanted to tell him that she did not let him down.

After confessing to Mike with tears, Scarlett fell into a great loss in her heart. She was going to be alone again, and someone proud and cute like Mike would never rely on her again.

“I believe you.”

These three words were extremely precious at this time since they were said by Mike under such circumstances.

Scarlett raised her head in disbelief. She just couldn’t believe what she had heard.

“You, what did you say?”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Did she have an illusion?

Mike definitely didn’t want to repeat it.

He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and casually wiped Scarlett’s crying face. He wasn’t gentle when doing this and his face was filled with disgust.

“Look at you, you are so ugly when crying! Don’t cry anymore!”

Scarlett opened her mouth slightly.

Fortunately, the makeup artist used waterproof cosmetics. Otherwise, if she went out like this, the reporters would make a fuss about it.

“What are you looking at! You’re always so silly. Leave it to me!”

Mike rudely pulled the small bag she carried with her, which contained the mini make-up bag stuffed in by the make-up artist.

Mike picked up one of the boxes of powder and applied it to Scarlett’s face.

“That is the eye shadow!” Scarlett was so scared that she took a step back. What was Mike going to do? Was he taking revenge on her?

What makeup did he plan to give her?

He had never seen these women’s scraps before, so he picked up another box of powder.

“That’s blush!”

Mike left the bag to her with anger and embarrassment.

“Hurry up and put on makeup! If you dare to let the reporters take photos of you like this, I’ll deduct your two years’ salary!”

The onlookers might think that he bullied her since she was crying like this. Mike didn’t want to shoulder the responsibility.

Scarlett grabbed her makeup bag and looked at Mike in a daze.

A moment ago, she was very sad and felt that she had lost the whole world. After being scolded by him, she suddenly forgot why she cried like this. It really seemed interesting.

Okay, she remembered it. It was Allen.

“And Allen…”

“Cut the crap, you ghost! Hurry up! If people see you ugly like this, you will disgrace the image of my family. Then you are doomed.”

In Mike’s opinion, that silly old man from the Lauren family was much less important than Scarlett’s makeup.

“But…”

“But what? You talk so much nonsense. If you keep talking nonsense, I will give you the makeup myself.”

Mike’s scared Scarlett so much that she didn’t dare to say anything else. She absent-mindedly opened her makeup bag and began to fix her makeup.

In fact, Mike liked Scarlett more when she wore no makeup.

He dared to bet that there were not many women who could compare to Scarlett when without any makeup.

Her beauty was natural and innocent. Every feature of her face was good. Not perfect but good. And all her facial features made a perfect face.

However, when she concentrated on her makeup, her serious look was also beautiful.

She held the powder puff with her hands and soon fixed the makeup. Then she applied the blush and lipstick. She quickly finished all these things.

“Don’t you hate makeup?”

“What? Right, yes.” Scarlett was still guessing why Mike acted so strangely and she hadn’t come back to her senses yet.

She answered his question instinctively.

Mike’s eyes darkened.

Sure enough.

When she was with him, she seldom wore any makeup other than applying some basic maintenance products.

She didn’t like wearing makeup, but she was so good at putting on makeup. The Laurens must force her a lot.

In order to marry him, she was forced by the Lauren family to learn a lot of things for four years.

Cooking, etiquette, makeup, and the way she talked, walked, and ate.

Mike sighed and reached out to rub her hair only to find that she had made her hair and he couldn’t do that.

Thus, he chose to flick her forehead, using a lot of force.

“What are you doing!” Scarlett had yet to calm down from tonight’s great rise and fall.

“I can’t guarantee that you can do whatever you want to do when you stay with me. But I can guarantee that nobody will force you to do anything then.”

Scarlett was stunned.

What was Mike thinking tonight? She just couldn’t follow him.

“There will be many formal occasions like this in the future, so even if you don’t like makeup, you have to give in.”

“What?” Weren’t they talking about her father? Why was he mentioning makeup?”

“Even if you don’t change, no one dares to say anything. However, in the spotlight, you will lose to those bitches with makeup if you wear no makeup.”

“What?” Bitches? Who? Why couldn’t she understand him?

“Why are you so stupid?” Mike hated explaining. Seeing that she didn’t seem to understand him at all, he flickered her forehead two more times.

“You learned photography yourself. You should know people with makeup and people without makeup are totally different in the spotlight. You don’t want the media to post your ugly photos, right?”

“Of course not, but why…” Why was he talking about this?

“So, you have to make concessions. You have to wear makeup on official occasions. But in private, you can do as you wish. If you don’t like it, just put on no makeup.” Mike impatiently interrupted her and said,

Especially the lip gloss, Mike hated it more. When she wore lip gloss, he would taste the sweet essence every time he kissed her. Gross! He only liked the taste of her own lips.

No makeup? Good.
