Gossip Girl Reborn by Darlene Nunez

Chapter 164 I Choose To Call The Police

Sirty million! You're quite ruthless, aren't you? Not only were you planning to pay back the fifty millions

gambling debt, but you were also trying to extort an extra ten million to use as a wager, right?

At the time. Isabella had quickly skimmed through the information and missed this particular detail. This distasteful man was truly revolting the more she looked at him.

Christopher was also thoroughly disgusted yet unable to vent his frustration. All he could do was constantly share his feelings in the gossip group chat, spreading the discomfort among everyone.

This sum of sixty million was no small amount, nearly enough to deplete all of Scarlett's wealth, yet Scarlett had no choice but to pay up.

Initially, Danielle and the others thought it was just these explicit photos, something that could be easily dealt with domestically.

However, now they heard there were possibly videos, ones that were secretly recorded and which drove Scarlett to the brink of despair and to take her own life. One could only imagine the nature of such videos.

If such videos were to be released, they could potentially be swiftly dealt with by the domestic internet authorities. However, they would still manage to circulate for a short while.

Had it only been this, perhaps Scarlett wouldn't have completely fallen apart so suddenly.

However, the blackmailer had been particularly vicious in his threats.

He also threatened to sell the videos to foreign websites, which would inevitably turn into a scandal that would forever haunt her.

At her core, Scarlett was very traditional. The thought of her videos being distributed as pornography films was more than she could bear.

Perhaps a woman with a strong heart would have dared to call the police to handle everything, but Scarlett didn't have the courage at the time. She hadn't wanted to face it; she just wanted to keep things quiet. Unable to find Javier to inquire about the situation, she could only instinctively seek help from her family. only to discover that the road ahead was a dead end, and her own family had betrayed her.

She was alone, with no one to assist her. In that moment, her despair overwhelmed her will to survive.

And there she was, questioning the very person who had caused her such distress, utterly unaware that all of it was merely a self-directed charade for the sake of swindling money.

Faced with the interrogation, Javier looked quite vexed. "I really didn't know it would turn out like this. I truly didn't mean for this to happen. Lettie, 1-"

"You good-for-nothing!" Upon hearing this, Freya didn't hesitate. She rushed forward and slapped Javier twice with such force that he was knocked to the ground.

Blood trickled from the corner of Javier's mouth as he stared at Freya in shock. After all, even at her fiercest, his mother had never hit him this hard.

"How could I have given birth to such a fool like you? Kneel before Scarlett!" Freya knew the gravity of the situation - it was not a trivial matter. It could potentially ruin a person's life. How could a girl, who was
