Iris grumpily aquired. What are you doing here?”

Otherwise, she would be like Mia, cinling without feeling guilty, but only spoiling the other party.
Iris was even more despondent when she was reprimanded
Hmph. I reckon you’re playing hard to get. You’re deliberately keeping yourself lidden so that Brother
Dey will worry about you”
“Listen up, don’t ssume that just because you’re Brother Dev’s plus one, you can marry him!”
“Brother Dev can only be minel”
Iris warning made Scarlett slightly frown.
She had here to avoid Sebastian, and Dey had something to do with it
Wasn’t the Wen family too good at onjuring
things
She had no excise to offer Iris, merely looking at her indifferently.
“Miss Wen, I’m sorry to say that you cannot ascend to Mi Gatsby’s stature You don’t have to try so
hard. It’s useless”

futile.
Miss Wen, lowever, did not share this opinion, she raised her hand and delivered a hard slap to
Scarlett’s face
“Who the heck are you? In the eldest daughter of the Wen Lamily. Do I need to prove my worth to
you?”
The slap came unexpectedly
Scarlett was taken aback to lind that the usually gentle and merk Miss Wen family had actually resorted
to hitting someone.
This took her by surprise and she was dealt a harsh slap.
She wanted to light back immediately, yet her body was restraining her.
She was hit just once, leaving her feeling dizzy.
Seeing her like this, Iris thought that she was afraid and became even more arrogant.
“I warn you, it is best to stay away from my Brother Dev. Otherwise, the next time you are waiting, it will
not be a slap!”
Iris left these words and turned to leave the bathroom.
When Scarlett saw her back, she suddenly split into countless pieces and then slowly became a blur.
Before she fell, she caught a glimpse of a man rushing in, and then she began to lose consciousness.
Once she had calined down, she realized that the one who had grabbed her was Sebastian.
Her heart, which had ceased to beat, suddenly skipped a beat, her nervousness evident on her face.
“Mr. Mr. Jackman…….
Sebastian’s face was expressionless, his brows slightly furrowed, betraying a hint of agitation.
“What’s wrong with you?”
After Scarlett calmed her frazzled nerves, she murmured, “Miss Wen’s slap was so hard that I almost
passed out.”
Fortunately, she only fainted for a few seconds this time, allowing her to use this as an excuse to
prevaricate.
“For Dev, you’re willing to take a slap. You’re really devoted. Sebastian frowned even more.
Scarlett felt a chill run through her as she heard the bone-chilling sarcasm in his voice.
The fear in her heart gradually dissipated. She responded nonchalantly, “If Mr. Gatsby were to find out
that I was beaten by Miss Wen, he would surely have a very bad opinion of her. Thus slap would be
worth it.”
Sebastian was taken aback by her thoughts, his gaze towards her becoming increasingly disdainful.
‘She really does go the extra mile.
He let go of the hand holding Scarlett’s waist, took out a wet towel, and slowly wiped his fingers.
This action made Scarlett feel very embarrassed. If he disliked her so much, why did he help her?
