Chapter 151
Dev looked at Scarlett, who had already averted her gaze, and the pain instantly coursed through his body, causing him to tremble.
“Is it because you’ve fallen in love with Sebastian that you’re being so harsh to me….
“Scarlett. I have loved you for half a lifetime. How can you treat me in such a way?”
Dev’s eyes suddenly filled with resentment – resentment towards Scarlett for falling in love with someone else.
Scarlett glanced at Dev and balled her hands into fists. She grit her teeth and declared, “Yes, I’m in love with him. You know the type of person I’m attracted to. Now that I’m in love, I won’t be showing any mercy. Could you lend me a hand?”
Dev’s body went cold and he started trembling uncontrollably when he heard this.
Rushing to Scarlett with extreme anger, he grabbed her chin and kissed her.
His strong and overbearing kiss was just as it had been before, yet Scarlett used to respond to him then; now, she didn’t.
Releasing Scarlett, he felt his heart chill as he saw the coldness and disgust in her eyes.
“Scarlett, you will regret it…
He threw down the sentence, spun around, propped himself against the wall, and dragged his unsteady body away.
Scarlett’s nose ached and tears fell upon seeing the severely injured back.
Seeing her like this. Susan was puzzled. Why was she so reluctant to treat Dev this way?
“Scarlett, are you still holding him accountable for kicking you twice…
“Not at all. He hadn’t done it either” Scarlett shook her head.
Without waiting for Susan to ask, Scarlett informed her that Dev had a twin brother.
In an instant, the thorn in Susan’s heart was removed and the resentment that had been lodged in her heart for many years dissipated significantly.
It was revealed that his elder brother had been cruel to Scarlett, and it was indeed true that Liam had forgotten his past. He had not been deceiving them.
It was clear that her fondness for Liam was not unfounded, yet…
She had a profound uncertainty in her eyes. So why do you persist in treating him this way…”
Scarlett took a deep breath, intending to tell Susan about her late-stage life, when a phone call interrupted her.
“Scarlett, wait a minute. Cosmo is calling. I’ll answer the phone first.”
Scarlett had no choice but to stay silent. After Susan hung up the phone, she had a sour look on her face and anxiously asked, “What happened?”
“Cosmo said something had occurred at home and he was in a rush to return to his hometown, Susan didn’t conceal it from Scarlett, so she honestly informed her.
Scarlett hastily exclaimed. “You don’t need to watch over me. Quickly go after him and take a peek!”
