Chapter 355 The Scapegoat


    On her way back to the office, Charis worried nonstop. She couldn''t give Ethan a bad impression;


    she just couldn''t.


    In a panic, she called the private detective she had hired. "Get me information on all of J''s


    enemies by the end of today. Got it?"


    "Miss Turner, how detailed are we talking about?"


    "I want to know every single enemy J has made ever since she was a child!"


    Without waiting for a response, Charis hung up the phone angrily.


    She didn''t expect that Ethan would pursue this matter so thoroughly. Given the connections the


    Larson Group had, it''d only be a matter of time before he found out that she was the one behind all


    this.


    Of course, Charis didn''t want Ethan to know about the horrible things she had done.


    She wanted to stay perfect in his heart.


    Fortunately for her, the private detective she had hired was really good. He got Charis the


    information she wanted within the day.


    There was a woman in particr who stood out to Charis. Her name was ine Sellers.


    Charis had seen this name in the personnel files before. ine was fired because of J. Later,


    she was even sent to jail because of J again. She must''ve hated J to the core.


    Upon reading through the file the private detective had sent her, Charis sneered and went to see


    ine.


    ine had graduated from a famous university in Seacisco, but now, she worked as a receptionist


    in a motel.


    ine looked up in surprise when she saw Charis in high heels and sunsses here. "Miss Turner,


    what brings you here?"


    When ine was working in the Larson Group, she had seen photos of Charis and thought that she


    was a really intelligent and beautiful woman. But before she ever got to meet Charis in person, she


    was fired because of J.


    Charis delicately removed her sunsses and nced around the shabby motel in disdain. "Miss


    Sellers, allow me to be straightforward with you. I''m here to ask a favor of you. Should you agree to


    help me, you will be rewarded generously."


    Because ine now had a criminal record, she could no longer find a decent job. Her current job


    was just enough to keep her fed.


    "What do you mean?" ine clenched her fists secretly. She had to admit that Charis gave out an


    intimidating aura.


    Charis leaned closer to whisper in her ear, "I want a scapegoat."


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    ine shook her head immediately. "No, I''ve already been in jail once. I can''t go there a second


    time."


    Her days in prison were so horrible that she shuddered at the thought of it.


    If she became Charis''s scapegoat, she would inevitably be sent to jail again.


    "Hear me out firstbefore you make your decision," Charis said calmly. "The charge won''t be serious.


    Even if you are put in jail, it''ll only be for a few years. You''ve already been there once, it''s no big


    deal if you go back. But the money I''ll give you in exchange for this will be more than enough for


    you to live the rest of your life in luxury. What will you choose? To live like this forever? Or to spend


    a few years in jail in return for a lifetime of luxury?"
