Chapter 131

Leo took a look at Sebastian, whose eyes were burning with a fierce determination to win, and the intensity of his possessiveness was overwhelming

He had intended to persuade Sebastian to give Miss Sales back to Dev, but upon seeing him in such a state, he knew it was not the right moment and kept quiet. Sebastian could probably still love Miss Sales, so he was vying with Dev

The president didn't show a sign of that, so Leo felt inappropriate to expresss it instead of him.

He respectfully replied. "Yes" Subsequently, he left and endeavored to block all the news.

Although all people in the villa were the president's trusted aides, the lady living in the old manor could still get the news from them with her cunning

Leo felt that, at the moment, he should do his best to help the president and not try to persuade him to let go of Miss Sales

Scarlett, not aware of what had happened in the study, sat up immediately with effort upon seeing Richard come in with her bag.

"Miss Sales, this is yours."

Scarlett received the bag from Richard and thanked him profusely. "Much appreciated!"

Richard smiled kindly, "the Second Young Master found it for you. You should thank him instead of me."

Scarlett politely smiled, and said nothing about what he had said.

"Take a good rest", said Richard, who knew it was inappropriate for him to stay in the room for long, turned and left.

After Richard had left, Scarlett opened her bag, took out her phone and took a look at it.

Susan had been calling her more than ten times by now.

Scarlett, shocked, immediately called back

The phone rang only once before Susan answered it.

"Scarlett, what's going on? Why is Dev at our doorstep?"

Susan's surprised voice sounded from the other side before Scarlett could say anything.

"Don't tell me that after five years, he still desires revenge against you."

Scarlett was surprised by Dev showing up at her doorstep now.

"Susan, he isn't here to take revenge on me."

Scarlett told Susan about the company's request for her to receive Dev.

Susan, who was hiding at the top of the stairs, frowned, "what a cursed romance."

She subconsciously took a look at the man who was waiting at the door.

"Scarlett, his head is swathed in gauze and he's wearing a hospital gown. He looks a bit peculiar."

Hearing this, Scarlett felt even more guilty. "Susan, he was hurt trying to protect me. Could you tell him to go back to the hospital and that I will go to visit him in a few days?"

Susan only picked the two words-protect me and asked: "protect you? what had happened?"

Scarlett roughly related James' act of revenge on her. Learning the event, Susan yelled that she would chop James into pieces. However, when she heard Scarlett say that Sebastian had already sent people to take care of James, Susan suddenly became silent. "So... you and Sebastian are a couple now?"

Scarlett could only nod yes, not daring to hide anything from Susan.

Susan let out a long sigh and muttered, "What a cursed romance. Then she got off the phone.

She put her phone in her pocket, took up the large bucket of pork rib soup and walked in the direction of the door of the small apartment.

A short time ago, happy with the intention to treat Scarlett to her soup, she stepped out of the elevator, only to unexpectedly see Dev.

Before feeling the shock, she was scared into the corridor where she waited for Dev to leave for a long time.

She was confused by the situation and called Scarlett. However, for a long time she was unable to contact Scarlett, during which she called her more than ten times, which almost killed her in anxiety. Now knowing that the two had met and got along well with each other five years after their last meeting, she was relieved.

She moved to the behind of Dev, who was leaning against the door frame completely still and only frowned a little. "Scarlett said that she wanted you to go back to the hospital, and she would go to visit you in a few days."

Without any more words, she quickly turned and started to walk away.

Yet Dev suddenly grabbed her arm. She turned around and was stunned on the spot, a pair of red eyes looking into hers.
