Daddy the Miracle Medic (Lachlan and Miranda) novel Chapter 97

Chapter 97 He really is a bumpkin

After Scarlet finished speaking, she gave Lachlan a cold glance before walking towards the warehouse. Lachlan didn't say anything and followed her.

It wasn't until Scarlet had loaded the goods onto the car and was about to get in that Lachlan grabbed her arm. "Wait, come with me to see Mr. Elliott for a bit. We can leave together afterwards."

Hearing this, Scarlet's face showed annoyance and impatience as she shook off his hand. "Lachlan, are you crazy? You've been following me without saying anything and now you want me to go with you? What, do you want to pursue me too?"

She couldn't help but wonder what this jerk was up to. He used to ignore her completely but now he was trying to stick around?

Was he playing hard-to-get?

Or was he just being persistent because she was not paying attention?

"Don't be ridiculous! Your father asked me to protect you because someone might try something against you," Lachlan explained while furrowing his brows.

"Ha! With so many guys pursuing me, your reason is really lame," Scarlet sneered at him in disdain.

"You're just trying too hard! You're such a basic guy!" Scarlet rolled her eyes at him.

"Pursue me? You're my brother-in-law's woman; why would I pursue you?" Lachlan retorted defensively. "Your father asked me specifically to protect you; if you don't believe it then call him yourself."

Lachlan was a bit speechless at Scarlet's misunderstanding and couldn't help but feel annoyed. "This girl seems a bit narcissistic, huh?"

"Get lost! Who said I'm Mason's woman? Listen carefully, we don't have any relationship yet. Who needs your protection? Get out of my way!" Scarlet was furious when she heard Lachlan say that she was Mason's woman.

As she spoke, she tried to open the car door and leave. However, Lachlan grabbed her wrist and forcefully closed the door.

"From now on, until we see your dad, you can't leave my sight!" he declared.

"Lead the way, Miss," Lachlan said impatiently as he grabbed Scarlet's wrist and pulled her towards the office building.

"Oh..." The female secretary who witnessed this scene couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"You jerk! Let go of me! Why should I follow you?" Scarlet shouted angrily.

"You're such a boring man! A stinky pervert!" She threatened him by saying "I'll call for harassment! Do you believe me if I tell my dad to catch you?"

"Asshole!" Scarlet's face turned red with anger as she struggled desperately, but to no avail.

A few minutes later, Albie's secretary led Lachlan into a reception room and announced, "Mr. Elliott, Mr. Willis is here!"

"If you don't want to embarrass yourself, then stop making a scene! Do you hear me?" Lachlan said to Scarlet after their tumultuous journey.

The beautiful heiress was now red-eyed and filled with anger and resentment. When had she ever been treated like this before?

This bastard was so domineering!

Scarlet hated Lachlan at that moment and glared at him fiercely.
