Chapter 406 Delude Her With Words
It had been two years since they last met each other. Surprisingly, Scarlett was even more gorgeous than ever.
Lia bit her lips and cut the crap. “Scarlett Hamilton, even though you’re just back to Dellmoor, I’m sure you know that I’m still not accepted as a member of the Bowers family, don’t you?”
In an instant, Scarlett burst out laughing disdainfully.
Stroking her wavy hair alluringly, vicious words escaped from her luscious red lips. “Do you think the Bowers family will let you marry Samuel just because you’ve given birth to the two children? You thought they could be your trump cards for you to make fool of the prominent family, didn’t you? You’re just overestimating yourself and building castles in the air! Don’t forget that you’ve set Samuel up in bed, and your two kids are just the Bowers family’s illegitimate children. You’re just too naive by thinking of manipulating everything with your underhand tactics. Pfft! I’m sure Samuel will never marry you!”
Scarlett’s mockery turned into a dagger that pierced through Yara’s heart, shattering her self-esteem. D*mn it! I’ve spent so much time scheming everything, but it turns into your laughing stock! Anyway, I’m sure there will be a twist soon. Scarlett Hamilton, when I become Samuel’s wife one day later, it will be my turn to step on you then!
Stifling her abhorrence, Yara refuted casually, “No doubt, Samuel won’t marry me. But he won’t marry you too!”
“Who the h*ll do you think you are? How dare you jump to such a conclusion?” Scarlett fumed; a hint of fury flickered in her beautiful eyes.
Yara chuckled and sneered, “You don’t believe me, do you? Regardless of how I set Samuel up in bed with your so-called underhand tactics, I’m still Franklin and Sophia’s biological mother. Not to mention, I’m the only woman who’d ever spent the night with him before. But now he’s falling head over heels for another woman. In fact, his devotion toward her is beyond your imagination. He even brings her back to the Bowers residence, paying no heed to Old Mr. Bowers’s objection!”
Undoubtedly, she loathed Natalie. In order to let Scarlett go through the same torture as her, she added insult to injury by adding, “He loves her very much. He even told me that he would only love her for the rest of his life…”
Scarlett’s pupils constricted instantaneously. She had been deeply in love with Samuel for many years. Nonetheless, he had an indifferent temperament and never spared any woman any glance. The twins were his only stain in his private life. Even after spending the night with Yara, he remained virtuous and never entered into a relationship with any other woman. How could he suddenly have a soft spot for a woman who pops up from nowhere?
Astounded by Yara’s words, Scarlett retorted, “That’s impossible! Samuel couldn’t have said so!”
Yara advanced toward her and added fuel to the burning fire. “Why do you think it’s impossible? Don’t you know that Samuel never brings any woman back to the Bowers residence? Even I, the biological mother of Franklin and Sophia, didn’t get to stay overnight there whenever I went over to visit my children for the past five years. But now, he willingly let this woman stay there. Do you still think that I’m pulling your legs?”
“Yara Nicholas, I bet you must be having ulterior motives to come and see me today. Apart from giving me a massive blow by telling me this, aren’t you thinking of talking me into colluding with you? What makes you think that I’ll do that?” There was an unmissable hint of smugness in Scarlett’s eyes.
Looking intently into her eyes, Yara uttered subtly. “Scarlett, don’t you know that there are no so-called everlasting friends and enemies? Undeniably, both of us have the same goal since there isn’t any woman by Samuel’s side all these years. Now that there’s a woman who can win his heart, I’m sure you won’t wish to see her end up marrying him, right? If you’re willing to join hands with me, we can get rid of her at any time. I don’t see any reason you will turn me down on that.”
Yara knew the tactic of deluding Scarlett’s mind with words would work with her eloquence.
After pondering for a while, Scarlett nodded. “Okay. I agree to join hands with you.”
Finally, Yara managed to win her over.
Blinking her eyes with an innocent look, Yara leaned closer to Scarlett and whispered to her, “Shall I brief you on my idea?”
