Chapter 112
Susan was still ruminating on the bullying she had endured from a stranger
On her journey, she had been dering that when she encountered Mr. Yea again, she would bring
some tools to behead him.
If Mr. Yea dared to harm them, she would directly cut open his head.
Grimacing Susan clenched her jaw and her grip on the steering wheel tightened.
Scarlett, fearful of pulling the steering wheel ott, nodded and said yes as she instructed her to drive

carefully
Chatting continuously, they arrived at the supermarket. After purchasing arge quantity of food, they
drove home. When they returned home and went into the kitchen to cook dinner. Cosmo just happened
to be there.
Greeting Scarlett, he rolled up his sleeves and took the knife from Susan.
“You two go out and watch TV for a bit. I’ll take care of this ce”
Susan couldn’t help but smile sweetly, touched by Cosmo’s thoughtfulness.
Your cooking is definitely superior to ours. I’ll leave tonight’s dinner in your capable hands”
After patting his shoulder, Susan took Scarlett to the living room to watch TV.
As soon as the TV was switched on, the news of Jackman Group and Napier Group’s business union
was reyed. Upon seeing Sebastian with a woman who bore a resemnce to Scarlett, Susan’s eyes
widened in surprise.
‘Scarlett, that woman…”
She suddenly grasped something, and her mouth shut abruptly.
No wonder Sebastian had topel Scarlett to sign that agreement; it was evident that he had been
treating her as a stand-in
It appeared that not only had Scarlett been deserted by Sebastian, but she had also been taken
advantage of
She had paid for five years in exchange for such a result.
Turning her head to look at Scarlett, she saw her calm expression without a trace of surprise, as if she
had already been expecting it, making her heart even sourer.
“Scarlett, don’t be sad,”
Raising her hand. Susan touched Scarlett’s hair, not knowing what to say tofort her in that
moment.
Relieved for long, Scarlett smiled at Susan, having been a substitute.
“I haven’t been down in the dumps for ages. Why do you look so glum?”
“I feel sorry for you.”
Scarlett sighed. Sheforted herself and her. “Even though he sees me as a recement for the
Miss from the Napier family, he has been kind to me these years. Plus, I can let go of Liam because of
him. I’ll just think of it as me using him as a rebound guy
When Susan heard her say this, her heart felt a little better. “In that case, you owe him your gratitude.”
Scarlett was amused by her, quipping. “No need to thank him!”
Susan nodded her head and said. “You’re stillughing? He’s really pushing it by bullying you like this,
but you still don’t fight back’
Scarlett’s lips curved into a smile. “I do!”
He hade to find her on multiple asions, and she had provoked him so much that it could be
seen as a retaliatory
strike
When Susan realized that she had been deliberately feigning heartlessness, she felt even more
uneasy.
“Scarlett, I’m sure you’ll find someone even better in the future,”
She had no desire for Scarlett to nurry into a wealthy famuly; her only wish was that Scarlett would find
someone who would treat her kindly, so that she could be at ease
“Yes, there will surely be more toe.”
Scarlett hid the sadness in her eyes and feigned a nod, as if nothing had urred. In reality, there was
no hope.
Cosmo quickly prepared the dishes and asked them to help carry them, prompting the two of them to
turn off the TV and
get up
After the three of them had happily finished their dinner. Susan went to the bathroom while Cosmo
went to the kitchen to
answer the phone
Scarlett, having packed up the unfinished dishes on the table, was about to open the kitchen door
when she heard Cosmo’s
VOICE
“Honey give me another half a month. I’lle back after I take care of it. It’s easy to be spotted if it’s
too often..
