Chapter 153 Scarlett Fortune Telling
Harrison looked at their backs as they walked away and gave a meaningful smile.
Until their backs disappeared around the corner, he withdrew his gaze, his eyes moved, and he became grinning again.
He walked over to Lucas, looked at his bruised face, frowned, "tsk" a few times, and said weakly: "Come here, throw him into the backyard to feed the dogs."
Riley and Brian didn't use any heavy hands, they just returned all the injuries.
Although Lucas felt dizzy, he was still conscious. Upon hearing the words that would determine his fate, he suddenly raised his head, put his hand up Harrison's trouser leg, and with some effort, he said, "Young Master..."
Harrison kicked the dirty hand away in disgust. "Look at you, you could offend anyone else, but the top male. It's the same every year, and every year you refuse to listen. Look, they found a financial sponsor and immediately established their authority. You deserve it."
"Of course, I sent you to feed the dogs not because of this, but because you embezzled money. Don't think I don't know what you hid during the chaos."
"It's a shame that he's still so careless even after climbing this high."
Harrison opened Lucas's locked drawer and took out the smoke mask and water gun he had hidden. He glanced down at him and said coldly, "You don't deserve these things!"
After saying that, he took the things and left without looking back.
Two expressionless bodyguards grabbed Lucas' arms and dragged him to the backyard.
…
…
Scarlett takes Riley and Brian to find Ashley.
As soon as she arrived at the door of the basement hall.
Several eyes looked over at the same time.
Needless to say, it was the group of males stranded here.
Scarlett left suddenly just now. They were worried that Scarlett would not come back, so they all waited there, with visible tension on their faces.
Now that Scarlett is back, they can finally put their minds at ease.
"Ashley, have you finished the task I asked you to do?" Scarlett asked Ashley.
"Yeah, it's done."
Ashley handed Scarlett a thick stack of letters.
Scarlett held the letter tightly and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely deliver it to you."
…
…
"Sending a letter? Why would you send a letter? Is that the same one?"
As they walked out, Brian heard that Scarlett was going to deliver a letter tomorrow and couldn't help asking.
He didn't say the word "mission" but used other words instead.
Scarlett smiled and said, "That's not it. I just helped them. Besides, Nofigal is a small town. I can just ride my bike around..."
As Scarlett walked, she realized something was wrong. She scanned the neatly arranged bicycles one by one, and paced back and forth in an exaggerated manner, looking around, trying to find her own bicycle among the many bicycles.
But she looked around and couldn't find it.
I yelled in astonishment: "Where's my bike???"
Ashley shook her head, even more confused than Scarlett.
Riley and Brian had never heard of the word "bicycle" before, so they were silent for a moment.
“Beep beep.”
At this moment, a black car drove over and stopped in front of them. The driver's window slowly rolled down, and a brown head popped out. He raised his head, raised his eyebrows, and asked Scarlett with a shy smile: "Scarlett, do you want me to take you home?"
It's Harrison.
Ashley frowned.
Riley and Brian looked at each other and silently stood in front of Scarlett.
If someone shows you kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief.
Their intuition told them.
This male is not a good guy.
Scarlett, however, took a fancy to his car, smiled, and said, "Okay."
Scarlett took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat, "I want to go somewhere else, please."
Scarlett saw the injuries on Riley and Brian and knew that they would suffer if they stayed in those places.
She simply borrowed Harrison's identity to rescue all her beastly husbands at once!
Night is the time for fun.
…
…
The black car stopped at the Time Tavern.
Harrison asked in surprise, "You want to drink more?"
Scarlett chuckled and said, "Not only do I want to drink, I also want to find someone."
"Looking for someone?"
"right!"
Scarlett touched her hand, glanced at Harrison obscurely, and whispered, "My father once told me that I was destined to have nine husbands, and all nine of them must be found on the same day, otherwise I would never get rich. So, I'm here to find them now."
"Nine husbands?" Harrison made an exaggerated expression, glanced back at the back of the car, and raised his eyebrows in disbelief. Although he felt strange, he didn't say anything and just laughed dryly. "Really? Then do you know where they are?"
"Know."
Scarlett's eyes sparkled.
Harrison's brow jumped. "How can I help?"
"Harrison you are such a good man."
Harrison: “…”
…
…
Time Tavern.
A dark basement.
A huge iron cage was placed in the corner.
In the iron cage, there was a male with black hair, white skin and a pale face. He sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His clothes were stained with blood and became filthy, but he didn't care at all. He pursed his lips and said nothing.
"You're really stubborn! It's been a month and you still won't open your mouth! I don't believe I can't deal with you!"
The skinny monkey stood in front of the iron cage with a horsewhip in his hand. As he spoke, he opened the iron cage, raised the whip, and whipped the other person hard.
…
…
Harrison took Scarlett into the Time Tavern.
The two men went to the bar and each ordered a glass of whiskey.
Dim lights, heavy metal music, every heavy note hits Scarlett's heartbeat.
This was the first time she had been to a bar in her life.
It’s fresh, but too noisy.
Harrison raised his whiskey and asked curiously, "Scarlett, is your father good at fortune-telling?"
Scarlett smiled brightly. "Not only can he tell fortunes, I can tell fortunes too. Do you want me to tell yours?"
Harrison had sent Scarlett home as a test, but now that Scarlett had taken the initiative, he naturally wouldn't refuse. He smiled and said, "Okay, how do you settle it?"
Scarlett said, "Tell me your date of birth and then give me your hand."
Harrison extended his hand and gave his birthday, "September 12, 3105."
Scarlett held his hand with her right hand, checking the lines on his palm, and counting on her left hand, she recited his date of birth in a serious manner, her brows slightly furrowed and her face full of seriousness.
Scarlett can't tell fortunes, but she knows the essence of fortune telling.
After a series of operations, she sighed and then said, "Harrison, you are destined to have a lot of money."
Harrison laughed and said, "My great-grandfather was the richest man in the town of Nofigal, and I am his only heir. Scarlett, your words are superfluous."
"But you are a very sentimental person."
Scarlett ignored him and continued, "You don't care much about money and are very generous to your friends. This is a strength but also a weakness. It's easy for people to take advantage of your feelings and end up losing both your money and your life."
Harrison's smile faded and his expression became serious.
"What you're doing now is a bit of an overkill, but you're stuck in a rut and can't break free. You need to have confidence in yourself, give full play to your talents, and don't blindly follow others."
Harrison was stunned.
The hand holding the wine glass slowly tightened.
"Although you usually look sunny and cheerful, and friendly to others, I can see from the lines on your palm that you are actually filled with loneliness, and you long for someone who can truly understand you and accompany you."
"Harrison, you are excellent, loyal, and tenacious, but your childhood experiences brought you setbacks, causing you to lack confidence and often doubt yourself."
"You have to be strong and believe in yourself. You may not have a smooth journey in the next few years, but once you get through this, your future development will definitely be no worse than your great-grandfather's."
Harrison took a swig of his whiskey.
The complex taste rushed into his mouth and nose. He couldn't adapt to it for a while and kept coughing because of choking.
Scarlett rubbed his back to soothe him and asked with concern, "Are you okay, Harrison?"
Harrison looked up, his eyes red, maybe because he was choked or something.
He grabbed Scarlett's hand and asked anxiously, "Scarlett, is what you said true? Can I really surpass my great-grandfather?"
Scarlett: “…”
I don’t know.
She had learned these words from the Internet.
It is said that if you let a dog do something wrong, it will hit you twice.
So she put her knowledge into practice.
Scarlett was silent for a moment, then gave Harrison an affirmative look, "Of course."
Harrison took a deep breath and held Scarlett's hand tightly, "Scarlett..."
"Hey, what brings Master Harrison here?"
At this time, the owner of the Time Tavern walked over with a slender waist, curly long hair, pretty eyebrows and eyes, holding a slender pipe in his hand. He took a coquettish puff, the smoke blowing on Harrison's face, and pressed his elbow on his shoulder, asking with a smile.
