Chapter 1698 An Outsider

After all, as gang members in M Country, their existence was enough to cause panic even if they did not commit a single crime in Chanaea.

Therefore, just a phone call was sufficient for the police to come running and teach Quince and his gang members a lesson.

As Rebecca knew about the Moore family’s tricks, she decided to send most of the gang members out, leaving a few behind to protect her.

When they finally left, Emery and I started to console the employees’ emotions before negotiating with Rebecca.

Rebecca could only be so arrogant because Skull was backing her up. Therefore, I told her, “I know Quince is the one behind this. You should tell him that it’s trashy for him to cause trouble every other day. If this continues to happen, I won’t continue to be friends with him, let alone working together.”

Despite being found out, Rebecca remained calm and grinned slyly. “Scarlett, how could you blame Mr. Quince like that? I’m here today because of personal reasons, and it has nothing to do with him. He’ll get angry if he hears you talking about him like this.”

Why is she so secretive? Besides, why should I care if he’s happy or not? “If that’s the case, what reason do you have to intrude on private property in broad daylight? If you don’t have a good reason, I won’t hesitate to use legal means to protect my rights.”

“Don’t worry. You won’t succeed in doing so.” Rebecca crossed her arms confidently. “Naturally, I have gotten the owner’s agreement for me to be here. Your daughter told me herself that the club was to be handed over to me.”

“Hah!” Emery snorted. “Are you daydreaming? Do you know what this club means to Summer? There’s no way she’ll hand over such a precious thing to an outsider.”

Emery’s thoughts were the same as mine. Therefore, I did not say anything else and stared at Rebecca coldly.

“An outsider?” Rebecca lowered her eyes and laughed. Her tone was calm despite being provoked. “Anything might happen. Just because I’m an outsider today doesn’t mean I’ll always be one. Who knows what’ll happen. Am I right, Scarlett?”

Why is she bringing me up again?

“What exactly are you trying to say?” Although I did not have much patience for this woman, I could only suppress the anger in my heart as I did not want to be provoked. “I have no interest in knowing what you’re trying to do. I’m only here today to tell you that nobody can snatch Summer’s things away from her.” Pausing for a moment, I glared at Rebecca. “If you think you can go against me, come and try.”

Back then, she was the one hiding behind others and painting me as the assailant. Therefore, I don’t mind facing her head-on. It’s a chance for me to take revenge on her, anyway. This isn’t a world where the weak is always right.

After noticing my hostility, Rebecca’s gaze soon turned malicious.

Although I could no longer make out her original look after various plastic surgeries, I could still picture her angry look with her natural face.

Narrowing her eyes, she clenched her fists and dug her shiny fingernails into her skin. “How could you be so arrogant after snatching other’s things? What right do you have?” Her body was trembling with every roar.

Although she was only beautiful because of plastic surgery, it did not affect her charm. When she screamed, it would cause one to mistake her as a weak and innocent woman.

Even I was confused for a moment that I was the one that was in the wrong, not her.

However, I quickly realized that it was just one of her tactics to shift the blame onto the innocent.
