Chapter 216 Scarlet Gets Framed


    Upon stepping out of the car, Scarlet’s eyes fell upon the upscale, luxurious residential area. It fueled


    her anger to its peak.


    How dare that sc*mbag George spend sovishly to allow that wretched woman to live in such luxury!


    No wonder that b*tch Linda has the audacity to openly dere war on me now. It’s all thanks to George


    spoiling her!


    With determined strides, a fuming Scarlet stormed into the residential area, vowing to confront that


    woman and make her regret ever crossing paths with George.


    Following the floor number provided by Linda, Scarlet quickly located the apartment.


    As soon as the elevator doors opened, she was greeted by the sight of Linda leaning against the door


    frame in luxurious silk pajamas.


    Scarlet made a beeline for her.


    “Scarlet… Ah!” Linda didn’t even finish her sentence before Scarlet delivered a resounding p,


    knocking her to the ground.


    Without waiting for her to react, Scarlet delivered three swift kicks before stepping over her and barging


    into the apartment. She then turned, grabbed Linda by the hair, and dragged her inside.


    With a loud bang, the door mmed shut.


    The entire sequence of events unfolded swiftly, without a moment’s pause.


    Linda was left dazed and disoriented on the floor while listening to Scarlet’s barrage-of insults.


    “You filthy w*ore, seducing my man. You sly fox, I’ll disfigure your face with scissors and see how you’ll


    seduce men then. You little sl*t…” Scarlet ranted as she ransacked the entire living


    room.


    Linda had anticipated something like this happening, but she hadn’t expected Scarlet to be so


    relentless. Her heart raced as she watched the furious Scarlet headed toward the kitchen.


    Panicked, Linda scrambled to her feet and attempted to escape through the door.


    Scarlet heard themotion, turned around, and immediately charged over. She grabbed a


    1/5


    handful of Linda’s hair, dragged her inside, and delivered four hard ps across her face, causing


    Linda’s lips to split.


    “You little slut, you dare to run away! If you move again, I’ll kill you!” Scarlet’s face was filled. with fury.


    All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org.


    Linda’s face throbbed with pain, blood trickling from her split lip down her chin and onto her cor.


    “Scarlet, you old hag, how dare you hit me! George will surely defend me!”


    “He’s just a passing fancy, a temporary ything. Do you really think he’lle to your rescue? Dream


    on! Once I’ve disfigured you, let’s see if he still cares.” Scarlet sneered, her eyes filled with malice.


    With that, she yanked Linda’s hair and dragged her toward the kitchen.


    There were knives in the kitchen! Linda felt a wave of terror wash over her. She was gripped with terror


    and regretted deeply for allowing this deranged woman entry.


    Despite the pain in her scalp, Linda fought desperately. She pushed Scarlet away and fled while crying


    for help. “She’s trying to kill me! Help me!”


    Scarlet was caught off guard by Linda’s strength. She clutched a handful of hair that came loose in her


    hand as she pursued her.


    During this time, some people who were not at work heard themotion and opened the door to see


    what was happening.


    Linda immediately rushed over and pleaded pitifully for help. “Help me. She’s going to kill me, sob…”


    Witnessing Scarlet’s menacing approach and Linda’s distress, a bystander stepped forward and


    blocked her path. “Who are you? Do you realize this is illegal?”


    “I’m confronting my man’s mistress. Do you have any objections?” Scarlet retorted.


    Despite society bing more open in this era, having mistresses was still looked down upon by


    many.


    The bystander hesitated and considered it better not to meddle in others‘ business.


    These domestic matters were tooplicated for outsiders to understand.


    Upon seeing this, Linda burst into tears. “No, it’s not true, I didn’t… she… sob…”


    But amidst her tears, her words were unclear, and she couldn’t exin properly.


    2/5


    Scarlet seized Linda’s hair and dragged her back inside. She cautioned the bystander, “It’s best not to


    interfere in others‘ affairs”


    The door mmed shut.


    The bystander heard a woman’s piercing scream from inside the house.


    Meanwhile, Scarlet, upon seeing Linda hiding in the room and deliberately screaming before locking


    the door, looked at her with bewilderment.


    wout of her wind?


    After scolding Landa for a while, Scarlet prepared to leave.


    Just then, Linda emerged from the room.


    Unlike before, although she still looked miserable, there was a smug smile on her face. “You fool, do


    you know why I gave you the address? Do you know why I let you beat me up on purpose?


    Scarlet, reminded by her words, suddenly realized there was indeed something off.


    Normaly, a rational person would avoid their ex–partner at all costs. However, this despicable woman


    took the initiative toe over and didn’t even fight back when she was attacked. Scarlet used to


    believe she could defeat Linda, but now she sensed something was


    attuss


    Scarlet’s gaze was sharp, like knives, as she stared at Linda. “Are you nning to report me likest


    time? Let me tell you, I have many connections, and my position in the Kins Family


    secure. I’m not afraid of George!”


    She had found it hard to ept because of the decades–long rtionship between husband. and wife


    and never expected George to cheat.


    But now, she realized it wasn’t such a big deal after all.


    Linda sneered. “Calling you stupid is truly fitting. You can only think this far, huh.”


    At that moment, another knock sounded at Linda’s door.


    With a confident smile, Linda remarked, “Your grand surprise has arrived.”


    It was the police, whom Linda had promptly alerted upon spotting Scarlet entering the neighborhood.


    3/5


    Having checked beforehand, she knew it would take approximately ten minutes for them to arrive from


    the nearby station. Everything fell perfectly into ce.


    Scarlet quickly grasped the situation. As she was escorted away by the police, she vehemently


    protested her innocence, iming she was set up.


    Linda shook her head in disbelief and couldn’t help but think how naive Scarlet was.


    Even if she was framed, it wouldn’t change anything.


    The evidence was clear: Linda had been assaulted, with neighbors witnessing the ordeal and her


    injuries bearing testament to the truth.


    Besides providing the address and photos, Linda hadn’t even hinted at inviting Scarlet to attack her.


    So, framing her was out of the question.


    After Scarlet finished giving her statement, the police decided to detain her for five days for public


    security reasons and notified her family.


    When George received the call, he was dumbfounded.


    He initially thought it was his troublemaking son, Samuel, who was causing a stir again, but he never


    imagined it would be Scarlet.


    When he bailed out Scarlet, he couldn’t help but curse directly, “Are you in your thirties and still using


    your brain as a decoration? You fool, how could you go and hit someone? What were you thinking? Do


    you want to disgrace the Kins Familypletely?”


    Scarlet sneered. “I only hit someone because of you. If you couldn’t control yourself, I wouldn’t be in


    this situation now.”


    In front of everyone, her words embarrassed him, so he decided to ignore her for the time. being.


    “Shrew, I don’t want to talk to you.”


    With that, he walked away.


    But Scarlet wouldn’t let it go. She immediately started arguing with him. “What? Feeling guilty? Let me


    tell you, if you continue to hang out with that little vixen, not only will I hit you this time, but I’ll hit you


    next time, too. Are you not ashamed? At your age, with that smell on you, still messing around with


    your daughter’s ssmate. You really have no


    shame…”


    “What did you say? You hit Linda?” George looked shocked and angry.


    Upon seeing George like this, Scarlet felt extremely upset, so she decided to let it all out. “Yes.


    4/5


    If it wasn’t for your precious little sl*t, would I end up like this? Huh, you think she’s some kind of good


    girl, but she’ll use you up and leave you high and dry.”


    George was so angry he raised his hand to hit her but was stopped by James, who couldn’t help but


    say, “Dad, Mom, this is the police station.”


    They continued arguing from inside the police station to outside.


    George restrained himself.


    It really wasn’t appropriate to fight in front of a police station.


    He snorted coldly. “I’ll settle the score with youter!”


    With that, he left first.
