Pampered by the Demon

Scarlet was asked to fish together with Mike. She intended to ask for compensation. But several photos of Mike made her speechless.

Mike looked perfect in the photos. The scene reminded her of another man.

When she graduated, Richard also took her to fish. That was her happiest day, but she never saw him again after that.

She wondered if he was well now.

Thinking of that man, Scarlet felt painful. Putting away her phone, she sat on a stool and held the fishing rod in a daze.

He caught a few fish and wanted to show off, but he saw her sad look.

“What’s the matter?”

She sighed, “What you just said makes a lot of sense.”

Even someone like Mike was not free, let alone her.

The man and the career she liked were all shackled by her special identity. She did not feel relaxed and free even after the divorce.

Although she tried hard to pursue freedom, she always felt that something was missing.

“Mike, do you have some unrequired things?”

“What I want is mine after all.” There was determination in his eyes. Scarlet sighed.

His status supported his courage.

He hugged her with his long arms.

“You just think about simple questions in a complicated way. Isn’t it just photography? Buy a set of EF and take photos if you want.”

He thought that her sadness was because of being unable to do what she liked and didn’t expect that she was thinking of another man.

“That’s customized.”

Photography equipment worth a million was seen as cabbages sold on the side. Money didn’t guarantee access to it in that it was tailor-made.

“I get on well with the president of EF. The next time we meet, I’ll get one for you.” For Mike, it is just a small deal.

“I don’t have money. I still owe you money for repairing the car.”

Moreover, her worries could not be solved with money. Photography equipment could be bought with money, but feelings were hard to obtain.

Trying to break free from his embrace, he pressed against her stiff back.

“Don’t move. The fish is hooked!” A big fat fish was flung up.

Scarlet was distracted.

“This is the first time I’ve caught such a big fish. I used to catch fish with Richard, oh, friends. There were all small fish. Most of the time, I got nothing.”

Richard said she was born without the talent to fish.

Mike took the fish off the hook and threw it into the bucket.

“Fishing is the same as love. Fate counts. Perhaps the big fish you need has always been there. It is just that you did not realize.”

Scarlet thought about it and finally said something interesting.

“What a stupid fish for me to catch! I thought of something. It’s okay you are ugly if I am blind, the fish is more stupid than me.

Mike’s good mood was destroyed. He looked at the giggling woman and thought.

Aren’t I blind and stupid?

Scarlet was an optimist and soon turned happy.

Mike took out cookware from the trunk, and cooked the fragrant grilled fish on the spot.

Mike knew that she did not dare to kill the fish. He quietly handled the fish, lay on the picnic mat, and rested with eyes closed in satisfaction. The atmosphere was very good.

Scarlet thought when she grilled the fish, if Mike could always be like today, perhaps the two would not have divorced.

Although she was forced to marry him, she managed her marriage with great care. But their identities and personalities were too different. In the end, they separated.

“What are you thinking about? The fish is already burnt. What a silly girl!” He opened his eyes, sat up, and knocked her on the head.

They looked like a landlord and a servant girl. Scarlet knelt on the mat and waved her fan with all her might. Mike was lying down comfortably, and from time to time, he would knock her on the head twice.

“Turn it over, it’s almost burnt. Are you stupid?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!” Scarlet was furious.

“Are you sure you want me to do this?”

His eyes were deep. Scarlet was stunned for a moment and immediately understood.

Her face turned red. Looking at him warily, she held the knife in her hand tightly.

In the wilderness, there were no other people. A man and a woman stayed together…

What if he did something to her? Only then did she realize that the man beside her was a wild and hard to tame wolf.

She couldn’t treat him like a husky just because he acted a little friendly.

Should she use a knife to hit his head if he pounced over?

Scarlet’s thoughts were all written on her face, with Mike gritting his teeth.

Damn woman, if he has any idea, just a small knife can’t stop him.

Mike felt insulted by her.

“Should we settle the debt you owe me?” He changed the topic.

Scarlet’s eyes lit up. She didn’t expect Mike to talk about the debt. Miffy was right. It was effective to show respect.

“Tell me, how are you going to repay the three million?”

“I have 2 million. I want to split the rest. I have an investment in my friend’s bar, if it goes well, I can pay off the debt in 3 years.

“Bar? What friends, male or female? Where did you get the money?” His eyes flashed, in that he didn’t even know this?

“In partnership with my best friend Miffy, the girl who was my bridesmaid when I got married, the money was saved from my part-time job when I was in college.”

After divorce, she wanted to invest and be a financially independent woman. But she did not expect the first bucket of gold did not arrive, a debt for repairing the car reached.

Female, Mike decided to skip it.

“How would I know if you guys will make a profit? If you make a loss, how are you going to pay back?”

“I have recently submitted my resume. If I can’t find a job, I will go to the bar and help Miffy, I will have income.”

Mike thought about the lights, a bunch of green-eyed wild men drooling over Scarlet in a short skirt. Someone may even reach out their claws.

“No!”

“Why! I need to do something, and I owe you money.”

“What about giving you another way to pay the debt?”
