Chapter 270
Downstairs.
The moment Hamilton stepped out, he spotted Elliott lingering at the entrance of the hallway, sporting a fresh bruise on his forehead.
Hamilton walked over to his car and lit a cigarette, watching as Elliott approached, frowning.
"Scarlett and Natalia are living together now?"
Hamilton glanced at him, "You got beaten up over a girl?"
Elliott coughed lightly, "I accidentally fell off the bed. How's Scarlett doing?"
After taking a drag, Hamilton finally spoke.
"No idea."
"Weren't you just up there?"
Hamilton gave him a look, "I only went to see Ms. Jenkins."
Elliott sighed, lighting his own cigarette.
When Natalia came downstairs, she was greeted by the sight of two men smoking side by side.
Hamilton moved towards her upon her arrival.
But Natalia, ignoring him, walked directly to Elliott.
"Elliott, is this how you said you wouldn't bully Scarlett?"
Elliott looked dejected, "Natalia, would you believe me if I said she initiated it? She was clinging to me, asking if we could sleep together. I'm a normal guy; of course, I couldn't resist!" Natalia eyed Elliott, "Couldn't resist, huh? She was drunk, were you? At the end of the day, you couldn't control yourself!"
Elliott felt somewhat guilty.
He had indeed drunk quite a bit, but not to the point of being intoxicated.
But facing Scarlett, he truly had a hard time controlling himself. When Scarlett kissed him, it was like being set ablaze.
