Chapter 93: Don’t Be Idle
Scarlette, upon seeing my inquisitive look, asked me, “Aren’t you checking the messages in that group?”
“Which group?” I was momentarily confused about which one she was referring to.
Scarlette immediately complained, “The one we joined during that gathering. You actually forgot about it! Although it’s filled with uninteresting content, those wealthy ladies won’t miss any messages. You should occasionally pay attention; there might be something useful for us!”
I instantly grasped the importance of that group. Scarlette said, “The Blue Orchid Awards ceremony is about to take place. It’s a grand event with numerous celebrities. Even sitting in the last row is a symbol of status. I posted a message in the group: special benefits – two slots available through internal channels. Tickets start at only eight hundred thousand. Act fast!”
I burst into laughter, telling Scarlette, “You really understand my-in-law! So, it’s Amelia blocking her way, and even her well-behaved grandson doesn’t care! You’re quite a storyteller, mentioning internal channels!”
Scarlette earnestly refuted me, “Eight hundred thousand is just the lowest price. The best seats are in the seven figures. They’ve actually been sold out for a while. I just used it as a selling point.”
I absolutely believed her, considering Scarlette is well-connected in their industry and knows the inside scoop.
Scarlette chuckled triumphantly, saying, “HaHaHa, Charlotte must be going insane trying to get money from Robert!”
“That’s true, enough to flaunt for a while.” I sighed, “Unfortunately, his son doesn’t want to foot the bill. It’s just pitiful for that child!”
Scarlette immediately wore a disdainful expression, “Oh, spare me! Think about your own children. How has Robert treated them? Has he cared? Has he inquired? Has he shown concern?”
Though these words were harsh, every sentence was indeed true. Looking at the photos in those investigation reports, Robert had often taken that child on joyful outings, while my children were sent to boarding school, criticized, and kept away from their mother. Assuming I were truly gone, their fate would undoubtedly be bleak.
A sense of resentment surged within me. “Indeed, my children would be even more unfortunate!”
“Daisy, remember, don’t view the world with your kind eyes. Kindness isn’t wrong, but you also need to consider who you’re dealing with! If you talk about kindness with a group of demons, you’re a fool. In the end, it’s likely you who will die. It’s survival of the fittest!”Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
“Then let their destructive journey begin!” I hardened my heart.
“What do you want to do next?” Scarlette asked earnestly.
“The household is in chaos, and the company can’t be idle!” I declared with determination, “I want to… short Medikit Inc!”
