Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

“It’s not a big deal, just a little spice. If you really don’t want me, you wouldn’t sleep with me.” Vivian eased back on the bed with one hand and went on, “Admit it! Your little girlfriend can’t be enough for you, and I’m your best option.”

Upon seeing the torn clothes on the floor, he felt very regretful. The thought that Scarlett knew about this was killing him.

“She is carrying a baby now. If you dare to mention what happened here to her, don’t blame me for not having mercy on you.”

Vivian just smirked, “Relax, darling! I’ll tell her the truth. I’ll tell her I drugged you, and you treated me like her. Isn’t that what happened? It’s up to her to decide what she wants to do with that information.”

Francis sneered and stared at her with angry eyes, which made Vivian feel very uneasy. She struggled to stay calm. He stood up, took his coat, and opened the door. Before he left, he stopped and said at the door, “Oh right! There is something I need to tell you. As of last week, your company is mine, so you’d better get your family settled. Wouldn’t want to see you and the rest of your family on the street.”

“What have you done?” She stood up, stunned.

“I’m a businessman. It’s just business. You should know. ” He pulled open the door and strode off.

Vivian was terrified. She felt her feet grow cold, and a chill ran down her back. Only a few moments ago, she felt in control. She had felt as if the game was in her hands– that she was on the verge of a big win. Yet, now she was trembling. Her entire body was shaking, and her mind was flooded with anxious thoughts.

Vivian rushed to grab her phone and made one call after another to multiple people. But she got the same response each time. Francis had managed to become the biggest shareholder of the company she owned, and he was qualified to chair the board now. That meant that he would make all the decisions for the company from now on.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

Francis now held seventy percent of the shares in her company. Hearing this news, Vivian felt like she was in a trance. She was in complete shock. She collapsed, and her body fell to the floor, landing on the exquisite carpet flown in from Istanbul. She couldn’t help but wonder how this had all happened. How have her associates let this happen? Her family business was all she had.

Meanwhile, Francis had been thinking about how to explain all this to Scarlett on the way back home. He was very upset and had no idea what to do. He knew Scarlett would be disappointed and that she would likely misunderstand the situation. It felt like his heart was being cut into a thousand pieces by a dull knife.

As Francis arrived home, he hesitated, standing at the door. After a while, he pushed open the door and strode into the house. There was no point wasting time, he figured. He saw Scarlett sitting on the huge sofa in the living room. She was wearing her woolen skirt and a nice top– she looked like she was ready to go out.

Scarlett held her arms across her chest and smiled at him. And Francis put on an ingratiating smile and walked up to her.

“Stop right there!” She said.

“Scarlett, I can explain…” He tried to explain, but he was not sure if she would listen to him or not.

Scarlett handed the pictures to him and said, “I had someone print them out so that you could see them better. How is that? I didn’t make these up, did I?”

As he saw that pile of pictures, Francis grew silent. “So you know about everything, is it?”

“Of course I do!” she snorted.

“Babe, listen to me, I can explain everything. Just please listen to me, Scarlett. It’s not what it looks like.”

“No need for any explanation! I understand what’s happening, thank you very much. I’m not a fool.” Scarlett continued, “I don’t want to listen to any more of your excuses. And I don’t care if she set you up or not. I don’t care if you volunteered. I have no interest in any of your nonsense anymore.”

His face turned white immediately, and there was despair in her eyes. And then Scarlett took a look at the watch and said,

“I’m leaving now, and you can do what you want to next.”

She stood up and grabbed the bag next to her. She looked like she had been ready to leave. But before she moved, she was stopped by Francis, who was gripping her hand tightly.

“Where do you think you are going?” He asked, gritting his teeth. His eyes were flashing red.

Instead of answering his question, Scarlett just pointed at the things on the table and said, “All the credit cards you gave me are left over there, and you should take them back. I have no need for them anymore.”

“You can’t leave me!” he cried out, like a fierce and injured beast with red eyes and blue veins popping right out of his forehead.

“Stop that, Francis! Do you really think that we can go on after what you have done to me?” Scarlett looked at him seriously and went on, “You think you can just keep pushing me around like this? I’m not a fucking fool! I can take care of myself and my baby. We don’t need you in our lives anymore.”

“No, Scarlett, please. There’s nobody in the entire world who I respect and love more than you. You’re my one and only. You’re the most important person to me.” For the first time in his whole life, he panicked and begged incoherently.

Scarlett shook off his hand and said, “Let me go! You can ask the driver to see me off, or I can drive myself out.”

“I can’t let that happen. You are not allowed to leave me.” He begged in a hoarse voice, tears welling up in his eyes.
