Chapter 216: Chapter 217

Chapter 217 Heartbroken Scarlet George left without a word.

Scarlet, with red eyes, cursed at his departing figure. “You are disrespectful to me. If you still play with women at your age, you will die in a b*tch’s bed sooner or later.”

James sighed and said, “Mom, let’s go home first.”

Upon arriving home, George was nowhere to be found.

There was no need to ask. He must’ve been with that woman.

Scarlet was so angry that she began smashing things in the house.

Feeling annoyed by the scene, James didn’t say much and made an excuse to leave.

Upon seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Scarlet became more and more depressed. She wished she could demolish the house so that no one could live a good life.

When George rushed to Linda’s house, she was applying medicine. Upon seeing her swollen face, he felt sorry. “It’s my fault that I didn’t protect you. I didn’t expect that she would find you here.

Linda shook her head with tears welling up in her eyes. “Mr. George, how can you blame yourself for this? I shouldn’t have been with you in the first place. It was unethical. Madam Scarlet has every right to be angry. I got beaten, but it made me feel a little relieved.”

Upon seeing her like this, he felt distressed. “Let me take you to the hospital.”

shook her head and forced a smile. “Mr. George, my appearance may look terrible, but it’s not that bad in reality. If we go to the hospital and someone recognizes us, it won’t be good for your reputation.”

Thinking about the scene at the police station where Scarlet made a scent and publicized the family scandal without caring about his image, George felt furious.

He felt sorry for her. “You’ve been through a lot in this situation. I’ll transfer some money to your account later as compensation.”

Linda was secretly pleased but still politely declined. “Mr. George, I admire and care for you. for who you are, not for your money.

Acting this way only seems to justify Madam Scarlet’s criticisms of me...”

1/4 CMN Chapter 217 Heartbroken Scarlet 5. Free Down George’s expression darkened. “Take the money. You’ve suffered, and it’s only fair to accept it. Don’t worry. If she dares to object again. I’ll divorce her immediately.”

Linda felt a sense of triumph inside but quickly pretended to be surprised. “Mr. George, you can’t... that would make me feel guilty. While I want to be with you. I don’t want to break up your family.”

Just divorcing like that wouldn’t be right, would it?

If the Kins Family fell apart, how could she justify enduring the discomfort of pretending to be in a relationship with this olde man?

George sighed softly. He had spoken in the heat of the moment. He had several sons of his own, and he was getting older.

Although he was drawn to Linda’s youth, beauty, and gentle nature, Scarlet had been by his side for decades. Divorce wasn’t a simple matter.

However, her behavior had crossed a line, and she needed to learn a lesson.

Linda’s expression softened as she gently asked, “Is Madam Scarlet alright? I didn’t expect the neighbors to call the police.

Things were chaotic at the time, and she was taken away by the police. They saw that I was injured and told me to take care of my wounds first before giving. a statement. But don’t worry, I’ll explain to them that it was just an accident.”

Her maturity touched him deeply.

“You did the right thing. Regardless of anything, Scarlet is now my wife. If she were to be sued and jailed, it would indeed tarnish my reputation. But rest assured, I won’t easily let this matter slide. I will definitely stand up for you.”

Linda leaned weakly into his embrace. “Mm, I’ll listen to you.”

Disgusting man, she thought bitterly.

Indeed, no matter how sweet–talked they were usually, when it came to their own reputation. they would still hold it high and gently put it down.

As the saying goes, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. No wonder the whole Kins Family, except for Angela, who had long severed ties with them, were so hypocritical.

Especially Fanny. She was deemed understanding and obedient, right?

When the Kins Family was in dire straits, she wanted to see if she could still maintain such dignity.

After a brief moment of affection between George and Linda, he drove home to settle the 2/4 CM M 0:4 Chapter 217 Heartbroken Scarlet score with Scarlet.

TA 11:15 When he saw the mess at home, it only fueled his already boiling anger.

He kicked open the bedroom door, only to find the room in complete disarray.

“Scarlet, can you still call this living?” he roared and grabbed Scarlet, who was slumped in a chair. “You know you’re in the wrong, yet instead of reflecting, you’re doubling down?”

Scarlet sneered and pushed him away. “What, done consoling your little mistress? Can’t bear to stay away? Ready to defend that little fox? George, do you even have a conscience to speak of?”

George, displeased with Scarlet’s attitude, couldn’t hold back. “Scarlet, stop calling her names. Let me tell you, she’s much kinder and gentler than you’ll ever be. She’s been beaten black and blue by you and still refuses to go to the hospital, just to save face for me. She even said. she wouldn’t sue you. Do you realize how much she’s sacrificed for me? And you? All you do is cause me trouble.”

Scarlet looked at him with disbelief. “What? You think she’s kind... Hahaha, George, do you realize you’re being played for a fool? It was that little slt who set this all up, do you know that? She sent me the photos and willingly told me where to find you.

Otherwise, how would I have known?”

George didn’t believe her words at all. “Even now, you’re still trying to blame her. Scarlet, I have to admit, you’re quite cunning.

What happened to your former virtuous self? Did it all go to waste?”

“Don’t believe me?” Scarlet rushed to find the photos Linda had sent her, but she couldn’t remember where she had put them. It seemed like they were downstairs in the living room. She hurried to find them. “Just wait. I’ll get you the evidence.”

George’s face darkened. “Have you gone mad? Let me tell you, iristead of spending all this time tormenting Linda, you should be figuring out how to save Zacharias and Samuel.”

With that, he turned and left. As he reached the door, he warned again. “If you dare to trouble Linda again, I’ll make sure to deal with you.”

The door slammed shut, and its sound echoed like a heavy blow to Scarlet’s heart.

She collapsed to the ground with tears streaming down her face when she realized that George no longer loved her the way he used to do.
