Scarlett still had some feelings for Wendy at the beginning.
She was accustomed to being lonely. So when she saw a pretty little sister who was about her age, she was happy.
"When I first entered the Lauren family, I brought a Chinese pastoral dog from the countryside."
"A normal dog?" Mike frowned.
Scarlett glared at him.
"How can you measure the value of a pet by its breed? I just like it very much. It's my favorite pet. It's very cute!"
Scarlett still remembered that the dog she had brought from the countryside was always licking her hands. It was extremely cute.
"I put Myke in her arms. That was my favorite companion." Scarlett recalled.
Mike was originally listening attentively.
But when he heard the name of the puppy, he was confused.
"Pardon?" the name of them were the same.
"I don't know. Anyway, it's called Myke. It's a name from a brother I met when I was a child."
Scarlett's memory was very blurry. Before she entered the Lauren Family, she fell from a tree and hit her head. Some of her memories were unclear.
"What brother?" Mike was a little nervous.
Scarlett thought for a moment. She didn't have any impression of this brother, so she waved her hand and said, "That's not important."
"Why is not important?"
Looking at her uncaring appearance, he was angry.
He took a bite on her white and tender hand!
Scarlett cried out in pain and pulled her hand back.
Mike gritted a row of neat teeth marks!
Scarlett glared at him angrily, "Are you a dog?"
What did you mean? Why did you bite others when you were angry?
'It's kind to bite you.' he thought. He glared at her fiercely and continued talking about the dog.
He had the same name as the dog, so how depressed was he? Mike decided to take revenge on her later.
Scarlett continued to talk about her past with Wendy.
When she saw that Wendy was dressed like a little princess and was about the same age as her, she couldn't help but think of the princesses in the fairy tales. She thought that this little girl would be as kind as a princess.
In order to be friends with her, Scarlett put Myke in her arms.
"I didn't expect that she was so young, and her heart was so ruthless. She fiercely threw Myke to the ground. I still can't forget his painful cry."
When Scarlett thought of that, she felt sad. Because she trust her so easily, which caused Myke was thrown to the ground and snorted.
Mike hugged her comfortably. Scarlett had already fallen into her memories.
"It was just the beginning. From then on, she wanted to take away what I liked. My mother saved up a lot of money to buy me a doll. In a few days, it was cut into pieces and thrown at the door by her. My favorite pencil case was smashed flat with a hammer. She even gathered other students to call me a bastard."
Scarlett would cry if she was surrounded by people who called her a little bastard.
However, when she returned home and told Julia about this, she didn't comfort her. She hated Scarlett more.
Over time, Scarlett learned to hide her emotions.
Mike gritted his teeth as he listened.
He had known that Wendy was not a good girl.
However, she did not expect she was so vicious since she was young.
He hated that he hadn't known this earlier. He should have taught Scarlett how to deal with it. It was enough for them to bully her for so many years.
However, it wasn't too late to know.
He said in a deep voice, "Are you going to let them bully you?"
Scarlett shook her head.
"At first, I also wanted to fight back. But if I do so, my mother would beat me up. Sometimes, I wonder if it was my fault for her depressive rage. Because I didn't listen to her, I always fought back against the Lauren family."
The injuries her mother brought to her were even more serious than others.
She had never told anyone about this kind of injury in her heart.
But now that she had finished speaking, or perhaps Tilda had told her about Mike's childhood, which made Mike somehow important to her.
Mike was so angry. He grabbed her shoulder, "Scarlett, why didn't you fight back?"
"Mike, what are you doing? I'm fainting!" Scarlett was slightly dizzy from his shaking.
"Your mother is a madman. She won't stand up for you and even beat you up when others bully you. Why did you sacrifice so much for her?"
Mike didn't understand the way her mother treat her.
"When I was a child, she treated me very well. Moreover, I only have her."
When Scarlett spoke of her mother, her eyes were filled with confusion.
"She is afraid of losing Allen, so she hopes that I can obey her. Wherever the Lauren Family said, I have to do it." Scarlett said.
Scarlett did not understand her mother. Whoever bullied her, she would find a way to call her back.
"A person who can't even protect her own child is not worthy of being a mother!" Mike said.
'She was even more unworthy to be her mom. If it weren't for the burden of this crazy woman, how could Scarlett be so tired of living? She would have married him because the Lauren family had threatened her.' he thought.
Therefore, Mike could obviously let Julia live a better life in the sanatorium, but he did not.
Even the nurse Scarlett ordered was perfunctory towards Julia at Mike's suggestion.
A woman like that didn't deserve better care. It's enough that she could not die of hunger and freeze.
"I remember when I was 9 years old, Wendy scolded my mother for seducing her husband. I was so angry that I fought with her. I pushed her into the swimming pool in the courtyard."
"Well done."
This was his cat. Mike was more satisfied when he heard this. He rewarded her with a touch of her hair.
Scarlett sank into that unbearable memory and revealed a bitter smile.
"Well done? No, I regret it.. I paid a heavy price for my impulse."
