Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

And then she saw a beautiful diamond ring on the white plate. It was shiny and magnificent, releasing its charm with panache.

Scarlett looked up at Francis in astonishment. Francis was smiling and looking at her affectionately.

Francis stood up from his chair and began to say, “Scarlett…”

Scarlett leaned back against the chair and clenched her fists. Her heart started beating very fast; she felt overwhelmed by such a huge surprise.

Right then, one of the waiters came out of the shadows and gave Francis a big bunch of roses. Francis grabbed it and went down on one knee.

“I once proposed to you when we got a divorce because I decided to let you go. This time, I’m more sincere than last time… Scarlett Morris, will you spend the rest of your life with me? Scarlett, I believe, for the rest of my life, there will never be another woman like you who will make me taste the bitterness of love willingly.” he said.

Scarlett was moved by Francis’s words. She once thought that he wouldn’t utter sweet words, but he could easily touch her heart to her surprise. And then the tears began to stream from her eyes.

Francis smiled and held her hand tightly.

“I know you always think that I’ve set you up and make you fall into my trap so that you can’t escape away from me. What I’m trying to say is not to deny that, and unfortunately, you are right about me. To achieve what I want, I’m willing to do anything, even play dirty. But all I care about in this life is winning your heart…” He said nervously, watching her reaction carefully.

Fortunately for Francis, Scarlett was moved to cry. He said, “What I have been thinking is that I’ve got everything I ever wanted in my life, but you are an exception. I want you most, but you always make me feel that I’m gonna lose you. And that makes me very frustrated.”

“You have proposed to the same woman twice, don’t you regret it?”

“Well, if I had to do it a third time, I’d feel very embarrassed! But I’ll do whatever it takes to keep you by my side forever.” he sighed.

Scarlett laughed loudly when she heard that. As Francis saw her happy, he instantly put the ring on her finger.

“Hey, I haven’t even said yes just yet!” Scarlett resisted.

Because of that, Francis, who was about to stand up, had to kneel down again.

“Scarlett, please! All the waiters here are laughing at me!” Francis smiled.

Not turning her head to look at the others, she just stared at Francis and asked seriously, “Do you really want to marry me again?”

Francis’s face became serious, and he nodded, “I swear, Scarlett, you’re the only one I need in this world.”

“I need to think about it….” Scarlett said. !” she said.

Francis stood up instantly.

“If you are so moved by what I’ve done, why not just say yes? ” he implored.

“Well, I’m afraid of being abandoned again! You’re the one who forced me to sign divorce papers… Don’t you ever think I have forgotten all about that.” she looked up and stared at him plaintively.

Francis held her, and kissed her on the forehead, and said, “Oh, babe, we are not divorced. You’ve been mine this whole time.”

Scarlett grabbed his collar. She was stunned.

“How can I let you get away from me? Even legally!” he sighed helplessly.

Scarlett pushed him away.

“What do you think of me?” she said angrily.

Francis knew she was angry now, but he couldn’t change that because that was who he was: a despicable man.

“Francis, you are an asshole!” she stared at him angrily as she took one step back and leaned against the table.

Since they had gotten divorced, there were many days and nights that she wept for herself, for Francis, and even for Carlos. When she left for France, she regretted her imprudence all the time and felt heartbroken and guilty. All those negative emotions had tormented her physical body and tortured her soul, but now Francis was telling her that everything that had happened was just another trick.

Scarlett lost her temper and kept yelling at him. Watching him stand there still, she grabbed a glass of wine from the table and splashed the contents on him.

It ruined his expensive suit, but he still stood there, without the slightest movement. Because of that, Scarlett just kicked the chair in annoyance and was about to walk away.

Francis stepped forward and pulled her back into his arms. He wouldn’t let her budge.

“Scarlett, you can be mad at me, but please don’t leave me!” he said.

Upon hearing that, she was moved to cry again. She was still full of affection for him, after all, even if his constant trickery hurt her.

Francis reached his hand out to wipe away Scarlett’s tears.

“Don’t ever leave me! I can’t afford that!”

Scarlett looked up at him and grabbed his collar, and asked, “Does it have to be this way?”

Francis shook his head and said, “I’m sorry. But about love, I don’t know. I’m new to this, so I don’t know how to attract your attention, and I don’t know how to please you.”

She closed her eyes, and tears began streaming down her face.

“Francis, you can always make my heart soften, no matter what you do to me.” All of a sudden, there was a bang outside, and then she turned to look out the window and saw gorgeous fireworks blooming in the sky full of darkness.

The sparkles continued, and Francis lowered his head and kissed Scarlett’s lips. He kissed her affectionately; he thirsted for her as the earth craved for rain.

The scene was so beautiful. Scarlett put her hands around Francis’s neck and kissed him back affectionately.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

Francis had made her suffer so much, but Scarlett believed that it had all made their relationship that much stronger. They had been brought closer together and could reach new heights of happiness.

“Please marry me again, my babe…” he asked as he kissed her lips gently.

She grabbed his collar again and tugged it towards her. Under the lovely fireworks, she uttered the fateful word.

Yes.
