Chapter 40

She was also held back by the man without a knife.

She felt very powerless due to this passive sensation.

She squatted down and knelt, covering her face with her hands as she wept.

"Don't cry."

He comforted her in a cold manner.

Scarlett lay on the ground, crying as if she were dead, looking utterly miserable, unable to listen at all.

Sighing helplessly, the man squatted down and tenderly ran his fingers through Scarlett's hair.

After being pushed away by her, he said softly, "I've been thinking about you for a while. I couldn't help it. I apologize."

He had been thinking about her for a while?

In other words, this pervert had not acted on a sudden impulse, but had a plan?

Pretending to be James, he sent her a text message, making it clear that he was aware she was James' partner.

When James declared that she was his woman, it happened that night at the Night Club. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FɪndNøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Scarlett carefully considered it. At that moment, there stood a tall man.

In addition to Sebastian, Lance and other playboys were also present.

The Jackman Group brothers all held her in disdain, making it inconceivable for them to do such a thing.

The man in front of her was likely to be James' brother.

When she called to confirm it, he being familiar with James, would know that James was in a meeting.

Scarlett's thoughts became clear as she considered this: only those who had been following James would do such a thing-

As she recalled by him to rewer and outlining her plans, a chill ran down her spine.

If that man was to tell Janies about this, she done for!

Scarlett trembled with fear, despair washing over her and taking her breath away.

The man, not replying, picked up her phone, opened her WhatsApp, and added his own number.

He handed the phone back to Scarlett after adding something.

"As long as you send me a message. I'll come to rescue you right away."

Scarlett gazed at the name on her phone, Mr. Yea, displayed on WhatsApp.

She quickly recalled and thought about it, but she hadn't anticipated anyone having the surname Yea.

She surmised that this was likely a fabricated name.

The man before her, unwilling to show his true face, naturally kept any suspicious information to himself.

As she lowered her head in contemplation, the man abruptly swept her up.

Scarlett feared he was about to do something nefarious, so she fought with all her might.

He put her back on the bed, pulled up the quilt, and tucked her in.

He told her, "Get some rest. Don't wait for James; he won't be able to make it back."

Scarlett didn't comprehend what he meant. She furrowed her brow and inquired, "What do you mean he can't return?" Without responding, the man walked away.

He strode quickly, as if he had
