Chapter 258
Scarlett felt a warmth in her heart as she thought of Susan, who was always so willing to give
everything for her.
Not only w the a good sister to her, but she was also a beacon of hope in the darkness.
How could she let someone so warm-hearted take the risk of going to England with her?
“My connection with Travis is too convoluted. Im not sure what will transpire in the future. I don’t want
you to take a chance by following my lead”
“I understand what you’re concerned about. Scarlett, but…”
Susan looked at Scarlett and said firmly. “You’re the only family Ive got left. My home is wherever you
are?
Scarlett & tears burst forth when she heard that
Susan raised her hand and gave Scarlett s back a gentle pat. “There, there, Scarlett. Don’t cry. I
haven’t been to England yet, so just think of it as an opportunity for me to explore the world!”
Scarlett still wanted to persuade her, but Susan suddenly shouted. I almost forgot! I don’t possess a
high level of education. I only know a few words in English Hello. Thank you, and the like. How can I
communicate with foreigners?”
She asked sadly. Can these foreigners understand just by using hand gestures?”
Scarlett was initially crying, but when she heard her talking to herself, her emotions were quickly
quelled.
She wiped away her tears and corrected Susan, If you go to England, you’ll be the foreigner.”
Only then did Susan realize. “Ah, so I’m the foreigner there. Guess they’ll just have to put up with me.”
The corners of Scarlett s mouth curved slightly. “Susan, have you made up your mind?”
Seeing the smile on her face. Susan sat up straight and said to her. “Yes. I’m with you. But I need a bit
of time. I gotta take care of the work and Lance.”
Scarlett glanced at Susan and noticed no hesitation on her face.
“I heard you say before that you wanted to leave, but Lance wouldn’t let you. He shouldn’t be stopping
you, should he?”
That’s correct, but he doesn’t have feelings for me He’s just accustomed to me…
To be exact, Lance was only accustomed to her performance in bed.
Cosmo had laughed at her, saying she was like a dead fish in bed, which deeply stirred her,
transforming her into a person unrecognizable from the one she had been three years prior
At first, it was Lance who taught her. Later, she acquired all the skills and assumed the leading role, so
Lance was unable to let her go From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Scarlett, wait for me a few days, after I take care of these things, we can go together.”
After uttering this, Susan rose and declared to Scarlett. Im off to Lance’s place now.”
Scarlett was just about to speak when Susan abruptly spun around and departed the villa. Her
movements were swift and determined, and soon her figure had vanished from sight.
Seeing them conclude their conversation. Travis strolled to the balcony, propped himself up against the
railing, and gazed down at Scarlett who was seated in the garden.
“When are we departing”
His tone indicated that he had anticipated her returning to England with him.
Scarlett glanced at him and said icily. “Give it a few more days. My friend still has something to take
care of.”
Upon hearing her words. Travis ceased making things difficult for her and returned to the bedroom.
At the Jackman family’s villa
Lance, propping himself up on the bar with one hand, watched Sebastian drink glass after glass of
wine, his frown deepening
“Second brother, you used to abstain from cigarettes and alcohol, but now you’re practically a
drunkard…”
After he had finished complaining, he reached out to take the wine glass from Sebastian’s hand, but he
gave him a cold glance
Sebastian held the wine glass with his slender fingers, taking a sip before going to pour more.
Lance held the wine bottle and advised, “Second brother, you’ve been mourning a dead woman for
three years now. That’s enough”
