Pampered by the Demon

Two rows of bodyguards opened up a path, and spotlights shone on the red carpet.

Mike wore sunglasses, one hand in his pocket, and walked ahead with a calm expression.

Scarlett had accompanied him to many banquets.

However, this was the first time she was showing up on such an occasion with all eyes on her.

She was a little nervous.

This wasn’t a party to compete with each other. This was a press conference for the entire world. At that moment, Mike was regal like a king.

Could she really be the wife of such a man?

Sensing that Scarlett had slowed down, Mike stopped and looked at her.

Scarlett calmed down hurriedly and wanted to walk quickly to him.

The more she tried to look calm and imposing, the easier she made a mistake. When she walked toward Mike, she sprained her ankle and fell sideways.

Mike was slightly far away from her, and by the time he rushed over, Scarlett had already fallen to the ground.

‘Oh no, it was over…’

Scarlett’s face went pale, and she seemed to be able to hear the camera shutters clicking.

She really wanted to show the temperament that a lady should have, but how could she make a fool at this juncture?!

The four years that the Lauren family spent on training her were all in vain.

She sat on the ground with a pale face. Suddenly, she felt a pair of warm hands holding her waist, and she was helped to rise.

After Mike helped her up, he got the dust off her skirt.

Some reporters exclaimed.

Scarlett heard more clicking noise from the cameras.

She bit her lips. This was the first time she had accompanied Mike to a formal occasion, yet she had already made such a big fool. He would definitely roar at her again.

“You don’t look at the road when you walk. You are always silly.”

He pinched her nose, and this loving action made the reporters scream again.

“Everyone, my wife is still very young. She will be very embarrassed if you guys are so enthusiastic.”

Mike hugged Scarlett and said to everyone.

It seemed gentle, but no one could doubt his prestige.

The implication was that whoever dared to write randomly would see about that!

He gave his assistant a look, and the assistant stayed to deal with the reporters while he held Scarlett and entered the venue.

When they arrived at the empty break room, Scarlett’s face was still very pale. Mike carried her to the chair for her to sit down and squatted down to check the ankle she had sprained.

“You’re so clumsy. You even fall when walking! Does your leg hurt?”

Fortunately, the ankle was not swollen, so it should not be a big problem.

“I’m sorry, I embarrassed you.” The pain in her feet could not be compared to the inferiority in her heart.

“What are you thinking about again?” Mike tapped Scarlett’s head.

“I lost my dignity in front of so many people. I’ve embarrassed you.” She wanted to cry.

Although she tore the divorce agreement, she felt her current life was also unreal.

So outstanding Mike was, so could she really be worthy?

“Don’t think too much about it. If anyone dares to leak it out, I will make his company the Abraham Group’s subsidiary.”

Mike touched Scarlett’s little supple face. It was very attractive. He couldn’t help but pinch it again.

“Don’t think about those things that don’t exist. Leave it to me!”

Scarlett was healed by Mike pinching her face.

Mike wanted to scold her again, but someone knocked on the door.

“Mr. Abraham, it’s time.”

“OK.”This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

“Don’t let your imagination run wild. Relax.” Mike pinched her face again.

‘It seemed that she still couldn’t let it go.

Mike wanted to comfort her, but it was too late, so he could only use another way to refresh her, who had suffered a little blow.

As the main character, Mike was going to be interviewed on stage, and the huge venue was crowded by journalists.

In addition to the well-known media home and abroad, some leaders of the economic department in the country also came.

Scarlett was arranged in the front row of the VIP area. With her sharp eyes, she saw many leaders sitting not far from her.

The Abraham Group deciding to be listed on A-share had a huge impact on the entire country’s economy. Although she was mentally prepared, seeing this scene, Scarlett was still a little nervous.

All of a sudden, the venue quieted down, and Mike showed up.

Under the spotlights, Mike was like a king, causing a small commotion the moment he appeared.

Scarlett could even hear the cries coming from the reporter area.

So handsome!

Scarlett had never seen such a domineering man in a suit before, and she blushed.

He looked over here, and Scarlett quickly pulled herself together and secretly cheered him.

Silly girl… Mike could not help but laugh. He restrained his thoughts and focused on answering the reporter’s questions.

His simple and domineering style fascinated the women present, including Scarlett.

Mike was really suitable to be a leader. In such a big scene, he controlled the whole field with a few simple words.

Scarlett could not understand what he was saying about the business matters of the reporters.

However, she could feel Mike’s glamour the entire time, which made Scarlett have great admiration for him.

Scarlett originally thought that she was just a makeweight of this press conference, but she did not expect that an accident would happen.

“Mr. Abraham, many companies that are listed on NASDAQ don’t even consider A share. Why did you let the Abraham Group return?”

Everyone was silent.

This question was very sensitive.

With Mike’s wealth, there was no need to return to the country.

“To be honest, about the reason why the Abraham Group chose to return, although the stability of the domestic economy is one aspect, this is not the main reason.”

Mike paid more attention to this question.

“Then may I ask Mr. Abraham, why did you choose to let the Abraham Group maintain to be listed on both the NASDAQ and A share market?” The reporter asked.

“It’s all thanks to my wife, Scarlett Lauren.”

Scarlett was looking at Mike with adoration, studying his completely different aura and expression.

She was suddenly called and then stunned.

Mike’s finger pointed at her, and the spotlights instantly shone on her. Scarlett’s expression stiffened for a second.

She immediately adjusted her state and stood up reflexively. She smiled at the reporter’s area and sat down gracefully.

However, there was a huge question in her heart. So, what did it have to do with her?

“My wife is a woman with a strong sense of national honor. She wanted to see the Abraham Group’s stock appear in A stocks, so the Abraham Group returned.”

“When did I have such hope…” Scarlett smiled as she felt puzzled.

Immediately, she could feel the several high-ranking officials sitting around her showing grateful smiles to her, and even one of them stood up and shook hands with her.

“Thank you, Mrs. Abraham, for trusting the domestic economy.” This sentence was spoken from the bottom of his heart.

The Abraham Group was a significant company. Its return would greatly increase the economy, and Scarlett, who had contributed to all this, naturally became the object of worship.

When everyone’s eyes were on Scarlett, a reporter suddenly asked.

“Mr. Abraham, what do you think about the recent bankruptcy of the Lauren Group?”

Scarlett nervously gripped the corner of her clothes.

Someone asked!

Not only did she fall when she entered the arena, but she also lost Mike’s face, and now someone used her background to stir up trouble, so what should she do…
