Chapter 43


    After Scarlett had finished reading the news, she was left stunned in ce..


    What kind of power was it that enabled a giant to be defeated in a single night in A Town?


    She suddenly recalled the masked man’s words from the night before: James was noting back.


    He must have known in advance that James wouldn’t return; could he have been the one responsible?


    If it had been him who did it, then the masked man would not be a friend of James


    Furthermore, it was inconceivable for James’ good friend to possess the extraordinary resources


    necessary to annihte Forrest Group in a single night.


    Who could this “Mr. Yea” be?


    Scarlett felt as if her head was about to explode.


    Fortunately, James had been taken care of by someone, so she no longer had to fear.


    However, having just escaped from James, she was now being targeted by other perverts.


    Scarlett pondered it and went in search of the hotel manager to obtain the surveince footage.


    In the end, only the surveince footage of James entering and then leaving her room was obtainable.


    This further reinforced Scarlett’s belief that the man was not ordinary.


    No surveince camera was present, the identity of the other person was unknown, and there was no


    evidence to take legal action against him.


    Could he just be let


    without any further ado?


    Scarlett, confident that the man had not used Susan to threaten him, boldly went to the police station.


    After the police filed the case, she supplied the man’s mobile phone number, WhatsApp contact details,


    and the text


    to the police.

    back home afterpleting all of this.


    As soon as she opened the door, Susan appeared with a worried expression.


    “Scarlett, where were you? You didn’t answer my call.”


    Scarlett, only then picking up her phone, saw numerous missed calls from Susan.


    She had been so focused on watching the news and checking the surveince cameras in the hotel


    that she had not noticed the missed calls.


    “I went out for a stroll. Maybe the mall was too noisy, so I didn’t hear the phone.”


    In fact, she had slept so soundly that she didn’t hear the phone ring; worried that Susan might be


    concerned, she casually replied.


    Upon hearing Scarlett’s exnation, Susan was relieved.


    “Susan, shouldn’t you and Cosmo go to Mysia for a honeymoon today? Why are you


    Susan and Cosmo had nned to honeymoon in Mysia after getting married.


    Susan had never traveled abroad, so she was eagerly anticipating her honeymoon trip.


    Why hadn’t she set off as nned?

    “This morning, just as Cosmo and I went out, we met themunity security guard. He said thatst


    night, a group of men in ck came to our door. They didn’t enter the door, but stood at the door and


    waited for about half an hour before leaving. The security guard thought it was a little strange, but he


    thought that they were rtives of our family, so he didn’t think too much about it. He only mentioned


    this when he met us.”


    “After I heard it. I felt that something was wrong, so I called you. You didn’t answer the phone, and then


    I thought of the group of strange people who came to the wedding yesterday. I was worried that


    something would happen to you, so I rushed to find you.”


    No wonder Susan hadn’t gone on a honeymoon with Cosmo. It turned out that she was worried about

    her.


    “I’m sorry. Susan.”


    Scarlett felt a little guilty and quickly exined, “I did encounter some trouble yesterday. There was a


    contract that was. very important to Mr. Forrest, but I kept dying it and didn’t give it to him. This


    made him fly into a rage out of humiliation. He directly barged into your wedding with Cosmo and even


    sent someone to your wedding room.”


    “He did this because he wanted the contract. However, I finally got the contract in the middle of the


    night and handed it to him. The matter was resolved and he would note to me again.”


    Scarlett was afraid that Susan would worry about her, so she refrained from telling her about the rape


    the night before. She only gave her the exnation she needed to ay her fears.


    “I thought that Mr. Forrest was threatening you yesterday. I didn’t expect it to be like this!”


    Once Susan had finished speaking, she anxiously scanned Scarlett from head to toe.


    “Scarlett, he didn’t do anything bad to you, did he?”


    “No.”


    Scarlett shook her head.


    When Susan saw the hickey on her neck, her expression froze instantly.
