Chapter 91 Countless Debts

Veda definitely noticed Scarlett was hiding something, but she didn't really care. Both she and Michael were grown-ups.

Some family stuff was better left unsaid; no need to air out all the dirty laundry.

Still, Veda was genuinely ticked off by Scarlett's constant bad attitude towards her.

Veda snapped, "You always scold me, and that's why Grandpa dislikes me so much! So what if I have dinner with him and put on a show for a night? If Emily gets a tiny scratch, all the men in the Brown family feel so sorry for her! And me? Everything I do is wrong, and I still get scolded by you! And you? You said you'd take care of Emily for me, but what now? You failed, didn't you? Can you get back the money you spent?"

Scarlett felt that if this kept up, Veda would spill the beans before Emily even had a chance.

Thinking of this, Scarlett quickly got up and shut the windows and doors tight.

She then remembered her room was far from Mason's bedroom and felt relieved, glaring at Veda.

"What do you know? My plans never fail. Today didn't go as planned, but do you see me scared? And that Emily, she has a mouth. Why doesn't she report me to Michael?"

Veda glanced sideways at the inexplicably confident Scarlett and said helplessly, "It's just that she has no evidence."

Scarlett happily took off her face mask, poured the essence onto her face, and carefully tended to her smooth skin.

"How could she not? I even went to the guest room to see her today. As long as she confronts Michael, he'll immediately know I'm lying!" Scarlett said.

"Then how did you dare?" Although Veda was usually very smart, at times like this, her mind just couldn't wrap around it.

In other words, though she had a sharp tongue, she ultimately wasn't as malicious as Scarlett.

The sinister tricks Scarlett could think of were beyond Veda's imagination.
