Chapter 242


    She was confused, but Susan said apologetically. “I need to answer this”


    Scarlett nodded slightly, and Susan, in haste, walked out of the bedroom, shutting the door behind her.


    She quessed that many things must have happened in the past three years, but she didn’t expect


    Susan and Lance…


    Outside the door, Susan held her phone and murmured, “I’m sorry, but I have to be with a friend


    tonight, so I won’t be able toe over.”


    Lance’s hand holding the goblet paused for a moment. “What friend?”


    Susan said vaguely. “A female friend.”


    Lance ced the goblet on the table and uttered, disinterestedly. “What a letdown”


    After the call was hung up. Susan let out a sigh of relief and turned to walk back to the bedroom.


    Seeing Scarlett sitting on the bed quietly waiting for her, Susan felt guilty again,


    She walked over and sat down by the bed, hesitating a few times before mustering up the courage to


    confess to Scarlett


    ‘I’m sorry. Scarlett. I know that I should not have anything to do with the Jackmans. After all, Sebastian


    has…”


    “It doesn’t matter.”


    Scarlett interjected gently. “Susan, don’t fret about me. As long as you’re content, it’s alright. It’s just…”


    A hint of concern showed on her face. “Lance is well-known for being adies’ man. He’s had many


    rtionships in the past. If you’re with him, I’m afraid you’ll get hurt eventually


    Had she not fallen in love with such a man, it would have been fine, however, if she did, she would


    likely be hurt just like Scarlett.


    When Susan heard her say this, he was not so nervous. “Don’t worry, I am with him because of


    revenge.”


    Scarlett didn’t understand “What revenge?”


    Susan clenched her fists and gnashed her teeth. “Susy, Scarlee, Sebastian, the three of them beat you

    up and sped up your death. Of course, want to take revenge on them!”


    Scarlett’s heart trembled upon hearing these names, how could Susan possibly prevail against them?


    She straightened up, pulled Susan over, and examined her body from top to bottom. “Susan, are you


    injured?”


    Susan, being a weak woman, was in too much danger to seek revenge on them, so they would have


    attacked her had she tried.


    Susan held her hand and smiled at her. “No. I have never been injured.”


    Scarlett suddenly breathed a sigh of relief “Thank goodness you’re not hurt. I’ll get even with them. I


    figure out a way to settle the score!”


    Susan shook his head at her. “You don’t have to do anything Susy and Scarlee have already suffered


    retribution..


    Scarlett frowned and looked at Susan in confusion. “What retribution?”


    Susan took out a cigarette and yed with it. She said to Scarlett.


    “I wanted to seek revenge on Susy, but she was sold to Night Club. When the Rahardja family rescued


    her, she was already crazy.


    “I witnessed her transformation, so I decided not to take revenge on her. Instead, I went to Scarlee to


    exact my revenge. However, I discovered that every month, a group of people woulde to torment


    her. Although they didn’t physically harm her, she had to endure humiliation.”


    “I had no choice but to focus my attention on Sebastian. Over the past three years, he has be


    increasingly powerful. After taking over the Rahardja and Napier families, he also invested in the


    Gatsby Group. He is now so influential that it’s like he can control anything No one canpete with


    him…..


    “I had no alternative but to employ a foolish approach – seducing Lance. To rece Annie, I slept with


    him.


    “I had hoped to use Lance to exact revenge on Sebastian, but it was clear that I was too foolish. Lance


    would never turn against his brother for a woman Iprehended this. When I attempted to leave.


    Lance wouldn’t let me go…”
