The Doted Lady Is So Wild

However, Kristen said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wharton, but I’m not interested in what’s going on between you two. I have to go to the second round of the competition soon. Need to go.”

With that, Kristen was about to leave.

Ethan grabbed her arm and pulled hard, and she was already in his arms.

“Kristen, why are you pushing me away?”

Kristen was angry at Ethan’s words. He held her with the same hand that he had held Scarlett, making her feel a little nauseous.

“Mr. Wharton.” Kristen pushed him away.

“Since your real girlfriend is back, what reason do you have to keep me, a substitute, by your side? Your Miss Alene is back, you should go and accompany her, why come to me?”

Ethan smiled when he saw Kristen’s angry face, “Kristen, are you jealous?”

However, Kristen denied it subconsciously.

“Ethan, what are you talking about?”

Ethan hugged her again, “Kristen, my relationship with her is not the same as you think. It’s just that we have some things to deal with now. Can you trust me?”

Kristen was about to say something when she looked up and saw Scarlett standing at the door.

All of a sudden, it was as if a basin of cold water had been poured over Kristen’s head, instantly extinguishing all the hope in her heart.

“Ethan, do you find toying with me interesting?”

Ethan was confused. He followed her gaze to see Scarlett looking at them with a smile on her face. Immediately after, Scarlett’s voice slowly came, “Ethan, have you finished settling your matters? Jack is still waiting to see you!”

Ethan clenched his fist tightly and said, “Scarlett, can you shut up?”

Scarlett did not intend to shut her mouth. Instead, she looked at Kristen, “Jack is the son of Ethan and me. Miss Healey, I hope you don’t mind.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Son?

Kristen’s face was full of disbelief, “Your… son?”

Ethan could feel Kristen’s mood change. He quickly grabbed her hand but Kristen pulled his hand open.

“Mr. Wharton, enough. I have no intention of being someone’s stepmother.”

After saying this, Kristen walked away. At this moment, Ethan felt a pain in his left atrium, “Kristen.”

Kristen ignored him and quickened her pace.

As soon as she left, Ethan’s face turned pale, and he staggered. He covered his chest with his hand and squatted down.

This scared Scarlett out of her wits.

“What’s wrong, Ethan?”

As soon as she finished speaking, Ethan collapsed and lost consciousness.

Kristen had no idea what happened to Ethan. Right now, the only thing on her mind was what Scarlett said, “Jack is the son of Ethan and me.”

Kristen ran out of the building before shouting “Ethan, you big liar! You already have a son, why did you get close to me?”

Kristen stamped her foot in annoyance.

Ivan and Malcolm ran out of the building and saw Kristen. They hurried to her, “It’s our turn to perform soon, Kristen.”

Kristen wiped the tears from her face and took a deep breath. No matter what, she couldn’t leave the show midway. She had to finish this work.

Kristen reapplied her makeup and stepped onto the stage. She became the center of attention. She put all her emotions to the back of her mind and focused on the competition.

Their song lit the stage on fire.

In the second round, Kristen’s team turned the tables and took first place.

After the live show was over, the news that Kristen’s group took first place caused a lot of discussions on the internet.

“What? Kristen’s team is the champion? Is this a comeback?”

“They didn’t perform well in the first round, while in the second round they did a good job.”

“I bet Hailey and Jason’s team to win, but Kristen’s team is the winner. I lost a lot.”

“LOL, the commenter above is too miserable. But Kristen’s performance in the second round is amazing. I didn’t expect her to sing so well and she could sing at such a high pitch.

“Kristen, she is the best!”

“……”

Kristen’s performance was hugely popular among netizens and this variety show Meet You In Summer boosted her popularity. There were seven or eight trending topics about her in a row on the trending list.

In the car, Kristen was reading the comments of netizens and fans, feeling somewhat gratified. However, at this moment, there was a knock on the window.

Kristen looked up and saw Scarlett standing outside.

She clenched her fists tightly and finally rolled down the window, “Miss Alene, what can I do for you?”

In stark contrast to Kristen’s cold expression, Scarlett had a big smile, “Miss Healey, we need to talk.”

They went to a cafe. People who didn’t know them would surely think that they were biological sisters. After all, they looked so much alike.

They sat down and Kristen went straight to the point, “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

Scarlett smiled, “Actually, it’s not that I wanted to see you. It’s Ethan who has a few words for you.”

Kristen clenched the corner of her clothes, “If you have something to say, just say it. Don’t beat around the bush.”

Scarlett nodded, “Tell me, how much it will take for you to leave Ethan. I know that Ethan was with you during my absence, but you’re just a substitute for me. You’re willing to be a substitute because of money. Tell me, what’s your price?”

Kristen found Scarlett rather funny.

For money?

Was she, Kristen, short of money?

“Is this his idea?” Kristen asked.

Scarlett nodded, “Yeah, Ethan sent me here. Because he is a man who values the time you spent together. I don’t think you want to make things too difficult for him, so why don’t you name your price? That’ll save us a lot of trouble.”

Kristen said in a self-mocking tone, “So, that’s how he thinks of me.”

After saying that, Kristen did not intend to dwell on this anymore. Since this was what he wanted, she would fulfill his wish.

“You just said that you want me to name a price. But you may not be able to afford it.”

Scarlett hadn’t expected Kristen to agree so quickly. She was overjoyed, “How much? No matter how much you want, Ethan and I can satisfy you.”

Kristen stood up, looked down at her, and said word by word, “One billion dollars. Give me one billion dollars and I will leave him.”
