Hadrian knocked on the door for a long time, but Scarlette was still unwilling to open the door. Raeleigh heard it, but she did not want to interfere with their matters. It was better for them to solve it on their own. She did not want to cause any unnecessary problems again.
"Please open the door," Hadrian said, getting impatient. The coldness was emanating from his body. Scarlette remained seated on the bed, not wanting to move at all. She did not want to see Hadrian. She would rather die than to see him.
She already had made up her mind. If they were not able to find Deanna, then she would come up with a way to find her. If they found her, then she would go abroad to study.
Jepherson once said that she could do whatever she wanted and that included going abroad to study.
Then, that was what she was going to do. She was going to go abroad to study and do things that she had always wanted to do. She did not want to return ever again.
While Scarlette was deep in thought, Hadrian managed to force open the door.
As soon as the door was opened, Scarlette looked at the door, anticipating the newcomer in the room. Hadrian was like a ghost as he stood by the door. Scarlette stared at him without saying a word. Hadrian then entered the room and closed the door. He raised his hand to turn on the lights and walked towards Scarlette.
Scarlette looked at him and said, "Please don't come over. I don't want to see you."
Hadrian did not stop. He continued walking towards Scarlette and she reflexively cowered in the corner of the bed. She tried her best to ignore him while remaining calm. She did not want to see him.
Hadrian raised his hand and held Scarlette. "What are you doing? Why are you hiding from me now? You've already slept with me. What's the point of doing this now?"
Scarlette was stunned when she heard his words. She was already in a bad mood and after hearing what Hadrian said. She was heartbroken. She knew back then that she was the one who had pressured him.
Scarlette slowly raised her head and looked at Hadrian with a sarcastic smile. "Then, why don't you kill me now? Why are you tolerating me?"
Hadrian gritted his teeth. "D*mn it! Why do you
want to die?!"
Scarlette laughed. "It seems like you don't know me well. The more people want me to die, the less likely I am to die."
"I'm not going to let you die." Hadrian gritted his teeth and stared at her swollen face, but he could not say anything else.
Scarlette gave Hadrian a shove, but he bit her in return.
Scarlette paused for a moment before kicking Hadrian hard. She stood on the bed and looked at Hadrian coldly. "Get the f**k out of here! I don't need you anymore. I'm sure I'll be able to find someone who actually loves me. Clearly, you're not that person. Get out, now! I don't want you anymore."
"Remember, you were not the one who dumped me. I was the one who dumped you!"
Scarlette held back her tears as she spoke. Hadrian, who was standing beneath the bed, gritted his teeth, and said, "Get down from the bed."
Scarlette refused to heed his words. She glared at Hadrian and said, "Get out! I don't want to see you anymore! Isn't that what you want?! This is good for both of us, isn't it? We are done! We don't have to see each other anymore. Let's break up!"
"I may not be welcomed here, but I will be welcomed elsewhere. Once Deanna has been found, I'm going to tell Jepherson that I'm going abroad to study and do the things that I've always wanted to do."
"You want to go abroad to study?" Hadrian's eyes were deep. His face was gloomy. "You can't even speak any other languages. Why the h*ll do you want to go abroad?"
"I may not know any other languages, but I can learn. You don't have to care about what I do." She looked around and picked up a wooden hanger. She said to Hadrian, "Get out now! This is where we end things. We no longer have anything to do with each other. We will never contact each other again. You are free to love whoever you want, and I am free to fall in love with whoever I want. I believe that with my beauty and physique, I will definitely be able to find a boyfriend."
"What are you talking about? Get down from the bed!" Hadrian was furious. She belonged to him. When did he allow her to find another boyfriend? To go abroad? Why did she want to go abroad? What did she mean?
He knew that if Scarlette left, she would never come back.
"Stop yelling at me! I'm not your slave! Get out!" Scarlette bellowed. She used the wooden hanger and pointed at Hadrian. He gritted his teeth and began to bite his lips. "Get off the bed, now!"
