NovelOnlineThe Interumors just cout of the blue and baffled Scarlett. In fact, she would not have dreamed that someday she would be linked to an affair had Alexis not told her about it. More interestingly, the guy she was said to cheat with was Devin.
Scarlett decided to overlook the rumors. After all, she was pregnant now and didn't want things like this to affect her in any way. Besides, being forgiving was following a virtuous path that would create a better environment for her future child.
However, Raymond would not tolerate the instigator and called Frank as soon as he heard about the rumors.
And soon enough, Frank found out who was behind all this. It was Caroline, someone that did not surprise Scarlett a bit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe only two people that Scarlett ever" offended" recently, if she ever did, were Caroline and Brycen.
Of the two people, Brycen was a clever man, a canny businessman with years of experience in dealing with others, so he knew how to weigh the benefits against the cost.
Scarlett and Brycen's cooperation was consensual. Scarlett admitted that she had been a bit aggressive on pricing and demanded a lower price than Brycen would have expected, but since they had signed a contract, it was something both of them could accept in the end.
So Scarlett believed that Brycen would not take it personally.
Yet Caroline might not be so rational. She had been very hostile to Scarlett because of Devin last time, so it would be quite understandable if she wanted things to be difficult for Scarlett this time.
The thing was, Scarlett didn’t expect that she was not as smart as she appeared to be.
Anyway, Scarlett would not avenge others in such an open and unwise way.
And even if Scarlett wanted to do the dirty tricks sometimes, she would be able to handle the situation for she had both the money and support.
But for Caroline, things were different.
Without enough money and support, she was only looking for trouble once the situation she created was beyond her control and turned into sconcequences she could not handle.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAfter hearing Frank's report, Raymond frowned slightly and asked, "Who is this Caroline?" Scarlett was eating mango casually on the side, and when she heard the n" Caroline", the mango almost slipped from her hand.
Failing to hold back her laughter, she teased Raymond, "I know that great wits have short memories, but you just forget about the Caroline we met at the restaurant?" Nothing would stay in Raymond's mind for very long except things concerning Scarlett.
Luckily, he was able to recall this Caroline when Scarlett reminded him.
It seemed to be the woman who tried to make things difficult for Scarlett when they were enjoying the private cuisine.
And he remembered that the woman had something to do with Devin.
Raymond's face darkened a bit recalling all these, "We spared her last time, and she wants trouble again?" Feeding Raymond a piece of mango, Scarlett replied, "In fact, | did teach her a lesson. When | was taking Brycen's company over last week, | forced the price down knowing that Caroline worked for that company." Scarlett paused before continuing, "I heard that she was fired after that.” Naturally, Caroline would think that it was all Scarlett's doing, but the fact was that Scarlett could not make decisions like that when the takeover was not finished by now, let alone when she had just signed the contract then.
She was not Caroline's boss at that time, how could she fire Caroline? Fine. It was alright that Caroline blamed her. After all, she did use Caroline as an excuse to cut the price by five hundred million.
The problem was that Caroline just did not know her place when taking revenge on her.
