Chapter 225Kyleigh came here this time just to ask for money. She did not want to meet Scarlett at all. That was just a pretext.After Scarlett's parents' accident, Kyleigh heard that Scarlett's parents had bought accident insurance and Scarlett got substantial compensation. She came to Scarlett and wanted to get some money, but Scarlett kicked her out directly with a broom. As a result, Kyleigh was laughed at by everyone in the village for more than ten years.If she had not heard Scarlett founded her own company and became rich, Kyleigh would never be willing to see Scarlett again for the rest of her life.Kyleigh was also older now. She had been so tired after waiting here all day. Yesterday, it took her a whole day to come to Juanton City by bus. And she had to pay eighty dollars every night for her hotel room!Kyleigh wanted to get the money and leave right now. She had been worried that it would take a long time, but Scarlett was so smart that she asked Kyleigh directly how
Chapter 226Scarlett took another look at Kyleigh, who was as mean and selfish as many years ago.Scarlett smiled sarcastically.How dared Kyleigh ask for four million dollars!Reilly just realized what Scarlett said and nodded, "I got it, Ms. Reed."Scarlett grunted and turned to leave.This sudden change made many people confused, including Kyleigh.Scarlett took out a check and asked how much they wanted just now. How could she suddenly chase them away? She didn't even give them a cent.No way!Kyleigh caught up with Scarlett. "Hey! Stop! Come back! Give me an explanation!"Scarlett's bag was dragged. She frowned and stopped, coldly looking back at Kyleigh. "It's a limited-edition bag worth 800,000 dollars. Can you afford to rip it?"When Scarlett said this, her face was stolid as if she was just talking about her dinner.She was calm and emotionless.Hearing this, Kyleigh was shocked. "You wicked girl! You had 800,000 dollars to buy a bag! But you don't even give a cen
Chapter 227Kyleigh snatched Scarlett's bag, dragged Rocco, who was still in a daze, and ran away.Seeing this, the hostess was shocked. None of them had thought things would come to this.The audience was discussing excitedly. Some said Scarlett was cold-blooded, who splashed out eight hundred thousand dollars on a designer bag but wasn't willing to give her grandmother money. Some said Kyleigh went too far. Others said Rocco was useless, encouraging his mother to come to his niece for money. Anyway, everyone held their views.Reilly just called the guards over, standing there at a loss for what to do. Things changed fast. She left for a moment, and Scarlett was robbed of her bag.Reilly glanced at Scarlett, who had always been smiling slightly but now stood still with a cold face.Reilly stiffened, not daring to say a word.Scarlett shook off Raymond's hand and walked out.Raymond followed behind her. "Where are you going?"Scarlett was going to the police station, but after
Chapter 228As Scarlett's all-around secretary, Katherine called her immediately after knowing what happened, asking Scarlett's opinion. Katherine would handle the matter properly."Ms. Reed, shall I do something to guide public opinion?"Scarlett glanced at the car in front of her. "No. Contact Dwayne. I'm on the way to the police station."Katherine was taken aback. This matter was different. After all, it involved Scarlett's grandmother and uncle.Katherine had thought that this matter was very tricky. In her opinion, Scarlett was beautiful and kind-hearted. Maybe that old woman could easily soften Scarlett up.Now it seemed that Katherine underestimated her goddess!"Okay, I got it, Ms. Reed."Scarlett grunted and hung up the phone.Her bag had been snatched away by Kyleigh. All she had with her was the phone in her hand.There was a police station nearby. Ten minutes later, the car stopped.Scarlett had just gotten out of the car when she saw Raymond following her.She
Chapter 229After coming out of the police station, they went straight to a nearby restaurant.Scarlett wasn't obsessive about cleanliness, but she preferred a quiet and clean dining environment.She couldn't make herself uncomfortable just to disgust Raymond.It was not worth it!Since they were well dressed and pretty, they attracted a lot of attention just after they entered the restaurant.The waiter guided them to a window table. Scarlett took a seat and briskly ordered food.Raymond came to eat hot pot for the first time. He couldn't stand the strong smells around him.He glanced at Scarlett across the table. She was looking down at the menu and ordering seriously. She seemed relaxed.He knew she was doing that on purpose, but he was pleased.Raymond opened the menu. Looking through it, he didn't want to eat anything here.Scarlett ordered what she liked. She checked and found that Raymond hadn't ordered anything. She looked up at him, raised her eyebrows, and called h
Chapter 230Scarlett withdrew her gaze. She looked up into Raymond's eyes.He was staring at her. "Not bad."Scarlett pushed the plate of the remaining beef to him. "Eat this."Raymond didn't move. "I can't cook."Scarlett was stunned. Looking at Raymond, she suddenly laughed. "Do you want me to cook it for you?"Was he dreaming?"My stomach hurts."She remembered that Raymond had a stomach problem, and it was serious.Yet what did this have to do with her?Scarlett grunted, showing no inclination to help him.She had never done that for anyone.Who did he think he was?A young woman suddenly came over and looked straight at Raymond. "Hi, can I be your WhatsApp friend?"The woman was good-looking but couldn't hold a candle to Scarlett.Raymond glanced at Scarlett and replied coldly, "No.""Are you afraid she will be unhappy? Miss, don't get me wrong. I just want to say thank you for giving us the dishes!"Raymond frowned, impatient with the insensitive woman. "Please d
Chapter 231Raymond just glanced at her without speaking.As she thought of that incident, Scarlett's spirits plummeted.She fell silent, sitting there looking at Raymond across the table.Raymond was particularly picky about food. When Scarlett had just married him, Jean took a stack of papers and asked her to memorize them.Those were all about Raymond's preferences. She was fond of him at that time. With her good memory, she bore all the information in mind after looking through the papers.Scarlett felt that she shouldn't have done that.She shouldn't have opened the papers. If she hadn't done that, she wouldn't have remembered what Raymond liked to eat and what he hated at the sight of him.While she was lost in thought, Raymond finished his dinner.He looked at Scarlett, pursing his thin lips slightly. "I'm done eating."Hearing this, she came out of her trance. She withdrew her gaze, got up with her phone, and went out.Raymond unhurriedly followed her on his long leg
Chapter 232He didn't answer her question and asked her a question unrelated to hers.Scarlett didn't want to talk to him, keeping silent.Just after they crossed the road, a cup of milk tea was pressed in Scarlett's hand."I don't want to drink it."She directly returned it to Raymond. She had little interest in milk tea. Moreover, it was given by Raymond. She wouldn't drink it."It can warm your hands."Raymond didn't take it. Scarlett stopped and held the milk tea out to Raymond. He still didn't take it.A couple walked past. Scarlett walked to the girl with a smile. "Hi, here's a cup of milk tea. You can use it to warm your hands."Scarlett was pretty. Her eyes crinkled while she was smiling. The couple was stunned. They wondered if the milk tea store hired this pretty lady to attract customers.Before leaving, Scarlett added, "The milk tea is unopened. You can drink it."After that, Scarlett gently nodded, glanced at Raymond, and passed by him.Raymond didn't care at
