Chapter 126: On a Hit List

Scarlet burst out laughing. She pointedly said to Ricky, "Aww, are you worried?"

"This is not funny," Ricky growled. "Inez has been gone for weeks. If this continues, I am afraid that we might never see her again." he paused and added, "And I believe that Dominic regrets it just as much. Haven’t you seen him? There are shadows under his eyes."

"Well, there were wounds under Inez’s clothes, and I never saw any of you worrying about it," remarked Scarlet with a hint of mockery in her eyes.

"Scarlet—"

"Leave it." Scarlet’s smile dropped, and it turned into a scowl as she said to Ricky, "Firstly, I don’t know where Inez is. And secondly, even if I did, I would never tell you or anyone else where she is. Because you know what? After what you and the rest have done to her, there is no such thing as a second chance. So tell your master to kindly fuck off."

Scarlet twisted on her feet as she dropped those words and headed out of the room without looking behind her. As soon as she opened the door, she ran into Maria, who was eavesdropping right outside of the door of her room. When Scarlet saw her mother, she rolled her eyes and walked past her.

Maria chased right after her, and while fumbling with her words, she said to Scarlet, "Scar, you have to tell me where your sister is... she is not safe outside, believe me."

"And she is safe here?" Scarlet didn’t pause as she picked up her jacket from the rack and threw it around her shoulders. She tugged it close and then turned to look at her mother, who was teetering on the verge of saying something. "She isn’t. Is she?"
