Chapter 151: A Shrew Also Fears the Wicked
Chapter 151: A Shrew Also Fears the Wicked
“Huh? What’s up?” Elaine leans forward curiously, looking up at the handsome man.
Emmett doesn’t answer her. He suddenly lowers his head and madly kisses Elaine.
His kiss catches her off guard. She’s stunned by his formidable arms and is pressed towards him.
Emmett is quite tall. Even if he’s bent down his head, she’s still forced to raise her head and stand tiptoed for the kiss. The sound of their passion fills the room.
Emmett’s a little out of control. He’s been with his beloved girl for so many days but he cannot make love with her, which almost has driven him crazy.
His hands wander on Elaine’s body restlessly. Wherever he’s touched, she feels burned as if he’s setting fire on her.
Managing to break free from his aggressive kiss, Elaine is panting. Emmett clings to her tightly. With burning flames in his eyes, he says while gasping for breath, “Girl, you’re mine. You should put out the fire on me. Tonight... Wait for my call tonight. If you dare not to show up, I’ll burn down your house. Understood?”
Elaine gapes at him.
What’s going on?
What’s he planning to do tonight? Where to go?
And he threats to burn down her house. She feels scared.
As a young and innocent girl, Elaine never understands what kind of torture a mature man like Emmett is suffering now.
He takes several deep breathes before releasing Elaine and leaving.
His slender and straight back is receding farther and farther.
Sitting in the car, Emmett is listening to Kayden.
“Mr. Emmett, Master knows you’re back. He asked you to go back home for dinner tonight.”
Emmett says directly, “Reply him that I’m tired. I’ll go back another day.”
“Okay. Mr. Emmett, Miss Amelia Carter also called. She asked if you’ll stay home tonight. She wants to have dinner with you.”
Hearing Amelia Carter’s name, Emmett is enraged. “Why do they care about my dinner so much? Call her back, asking her not to wait for me. Who does she think she is? My wife? Screw her!”
Kayden mumbles, “Mr. Emmett, she’s the first daughter of the Carter family, a powerful family as well. Besides, her performance shows that she must be your future wife chosen by Master. Mr. Emmett, please don’t act so harsh.”
“Huh? Really?” Emmett snorts. “I know the old man well. In his eyes, my marriage is just an exchange for the best profit. If Juliana comes to me, he’d kick away Amelia Carter immediately.”
“What? Juliana?” Kayden is taken aback.
Emmett keeps silent. However, a trace of cruelness flashes through his good looking face.
When Elaine calls Hazel, Hazel is tutoring her student in a client’s house. They make an appointment and Elaine will meet up with her in a place nearby.
Elaine opens the map and manages to find the location mentioned by Hazel. She also looks up the public transportation routes before leaving with the gift to Hazel.
After transferring two buses, Elaine finally arrives at the destination. When the door is opened, Hazel comes out with a lady at her forties.
“Hazel, don’t mind my words. I totally understand you’re not from a rich family. I’ve never disdained you. But you can’t humiliate yourself. How can you steal money? I’ve always thought you were well- educated. But it turns out... I’m so disappointed. How cheap you are to steal!”
Hearing the woman’s insults, Elaine is startled.
How dare she insult Hazel in this way?
“Woo...Woo... I really didn’t, Auntie. I didn’t steal your money. Really!”
“Where did the five thousand yuan in your bag come from then? Explain!”
“I really don’t know. Woo...Woo... I didn’t steal it. I don’t know why the cash is in my bag.”
Hazel cries fiercely, looking miserable.
That woman stares at her with disdain and despise, with a trace of triumph as well. She sneers.
Seeing that, Elaine is outraged. She rushes forward and holds Hazel’s arm. “Hazel wouldn’t steal money! When our classmates needed help, she donated her three-thousand yuan to that classmate. Stop slandering Hazel!”
That woman widens her eyes and raises her brows right away, pointing at Hazel’s face. “When I opened her bag, the five-thousand yuan that I just cashed out from the bank was lying there. If it wasn’t her, did the money fly into her bag by itself?”
Both Elaine and Hazel don’t know how to retort.
“Why did you open her bag out of no reason? It seems you’ve already know your money was in her bag. Isn’t it abnormal? You should have planned everything, right? If you don’t want others to know what you’ve done, you should never have done it. It’s all right; I’ll send someone to teach you a lesson, making you smarter.”
At this moment, a man’s voice rings out behind Elaine.
Everyone is astonished.
The man’s words hits straight to the point, shocking that woman.
Elaine and Hazel turn around, stunned.
“Master Young! Why are you here?”
It turns out to be Oliver, whom is named lunatic by Elaine.
Oliver squints his eyes at Elaine with a mischievous smile, like a playboy, elegant and glamorous.
He stretches his arm and wraps around Elaine’s shoulders. With a soft tone, he says, “What a coincidence! We both are destined to meet, aren’t we? I just passed here by and saw you freezing there. No worries. I’ll take care of your friend’s business. I’ll investigate on this matter.”
Then he glares at that woman and waves at his back. He orders loudly, “Come here! Go check this matter up as soon as possible. Damn it! My girlfriend’s bestie was slandered. What a dirty world! It’s time to tear down these buildings!”
Blood drains from that woman’s face.
A group of men with fierce looking approaches to her, looking like gangsters.
Both Elaine and Hazel are dumbfounded.
Obviously, the arrogant woman just now has weakened legs, trembling.
It turns out that a shrew also fears the wicked.
Tugging the hemline of Oliver’s shirt, Elaine whispers, “Hey, don’t make a fuss. It’s enough as long as it would prove that Hazel is innocent. Those men look so scary.”
Oliver glints at that paralyzed woman with sharpness and seriousness. Then he looks down at Elaine, his eyes full of tenderness.
“No worries. I know what I’m doing. This kind of shrew should learn a lesson. Otherwise, she’d still think she’s the queen. Besides, how can I bear my baby’s bestie to be insulted? I’m here to see who have the balls to bully my baby’s bestie!”
Hearing his words, Hazel almost blacks out.
What’s he talking about? His baby’s bestie? Such a complicated relationship, isn’t it?
Looking at this handsome man, who’s as decent and warm as the breeze in spring, Hazel can’t believe that he’s called “lunatic” by Elaine. So he’s Oliver Young?
How can such a pure, handsome, dazzling and amicable man be connected to a madman?
“Thank you, Master Young. Really appreciate your help.” Hazel nods at him politely.
Oliver’s pink lips split into a nice arc. When he’s smiling, his eyes are like peach blossoms. His white teeth expose, making him look so charming.
“Ha ha. Don’t mention it. We’re friends. My baby’s bestie is also my friend. We’ll get along in future. Don’t be so polite.”
Elaine can’t help but wipe the cold sweat beads broken out on her forehead. Hazel smiles stiffly.
This Master Young is extremely easy-going indeed.
Twisting her shoulders, Elaine shakes off Oliver’s hand and moves to stand next to Hazel, distancing herself away from him.
Those fierce-looking men have already followed the woman into her house. It’s difficult for both girls to imagine how those rough men will teach her a lesson.
Pointing at the off-road vehicle parking on the roadside, Oliver suggests, “Let’s go. Shall we go to a cafe? I haven’t seen you for so many days, my baby. I miss you so much. Let’s roll!”
Hearing his advice, Elaine shrinks back her body.
She admits that when Oliver helps her just now, she’s appreciated. She’s really happy that he can teach that arrogant and despicable woman a lesson.
However, it doesn’t mean that she wants to continue staying with him after making use of him.
She doesn’t want to have coffee with him. Oliver will drive her crazy.
Hazel doesn’t think it’s proper for her to say something. Smirking, she looks at Elaine beside her.
Oliver has run out of patience already. He walks to Elaine and grabs her hand, dragging her towards his vehicle.
“Come on! We haven’t seen each other for days. Don’t you miss me? Let’s go. I’ll buy you the best craft coffee in town.” NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Elaine is forced to trot, being dragged. She mutters, “Slow down. Slow down, will you? I can walk by myself. Stop dragging me!”
Oliver pushes Elaine into the vehicle, his shirt rippled by the wind. Then he spins around with a charming smile on his fair face. Waving at Hazel, who’s still in a daze, he invites her,
“Come on! I’m so glad to know Elaine’s friend. Take it as a treat from us couple. Hurry up!”
Hazel is amazed by the word “couple”.
She really thinks this Master Young is something.
Hazel jogs to him and sits in the vehicle. After saying something on his phone, Oliver starts the engine and drives them away.
