Chapter 351 - Alive

Scarlette eyed her bruised body.

She grabbed the sheets and used it to cover herself.

"Not bad…" the old man who was smoking a cigar on the couch just across the bed let out a peal of throaty laughter. It immediately reminded her of what had transpired just a few minutes ago.

She lowered her head and thought of the gruesome things that happened. She shivered.

How did it all come to this?

Slowly, hot tears made their way into her cheeks.

"My assistant already prepared some new clothes for you. You can leave now."

Without saying a word, Scarlette grabbed the sheets and used it to cover her body as she left the room.

Outside, two maids were already waiting for her. One was holding a first aid kit, the other was holding a towel. Next to the maid was Mr. Nakamura.

He looked at her and nodded in satisfaction.

"It looked like he liked you… at least enough to keep you alive." Mr. Nakamura said. He then signaled the people behind him to leave. "No need to fix anything. There is no dead body."

"…"

Scarlette shivered inwardly.

Her life, no matter how she sees it, was already in ruins. Yes. Everything about her was ruined.

Her family, her career, and now her body.

Everything!

And this is all because of Sienna! That woman… is going to make Sienna pay for everything.

"Since you came out of that room alive, he must have agreed to let it pass?"

Scarlette nodded.

"As a bonus for performing well… tell what you want."

She stared at him.

"Of course, as long as it\'s within my capability… I will give it," he added.

For a few seconds, Scarlette said nothing. She stared at him, tears still pooling in her eyes. Then she said, "I need one thing…"

"What is it?"

"A gun."

Mr. Nakamura lifted an eyebrow. "Why?"

"I need it to defend myself."

Mr. Nakamura squinted at her. "Let\'s talk about it after the Chairman would give me his order."

So, he won\'t give it. Scarlette shrugged. Then she followed the maids to another room.

So what if that man won\'t give her a gun? There are other methods for her to get one!

...

Four Hours later

"She went to see the Chairman."

"The old one?" Sienna looked at Jane, surprised.

"Yes."

"That — " That would mean it\'s almost game over for her. The old chairman was pretty well known for his lecherous deeds. Not only that, but he is also a masochistic as*hole who liked to hurt the woman. Rumor has it that the old chairman accidentally killed his first wife because she bled to death while they were having intense sex. His second wife also died under mysterious circumstances.

"Honestly, that is only her fault. She accepted Mr. Nakamura\'s favor considering that man has strong connections with the chairman and the yakuza." Jane murmured.

Hearing this, Sienna could only sigh. One of her tasks is to make Scarlette suffer, and it looked like she was going to suffer a fate worse than death.

Scarlette must have known about the yakuza in advance and that was the reason she approached Mr. Nakamura for the software. She must have thought that those people would be able to protect her. Scarlette forgot to consider that people like Mr. Nakamura and the chairman were only good to people who have value.

Losing your value means… losing their support.

"Can you find out if she\'s still alive?"

Sienna wanted to make sure that Scarlette was still able. She already knew that Scarlette was still alive because the system said nothing about Scarlette\'s death. However, she needed to know Scarlette\'s state of mind.

"Understood. Also… Mr. Rouse… had been calling since last night. He said he wanted to talk about Young Master Grant."

"And?"

"I told him you are not available to talk right now."

"Good." That man still wanted to use her, even if he already told her the truth about her parents. How shameless! "And Grant?"

"Still busy with the software and — " Before Jane could end her words, Grant suddenly walked inside her office.

"Grant…" she lifted an eyebrow and offered him a polite smile.

"I need to talk."

Hearing the seriousness in his tone, she beckoned Jane to leave them alone.

"What is it?" She asked after Jane left.

"About what I heard."

"I don\'t hate you," Sienna said. "If that\'s what you want to know. I don\'t hate your parents either."

He sat opposite her, his lips pursed into a thin line. "I am going to abandon Rouse Tech."

"…" Sienna blinked. Did she hear the right thing?

"If you do that, the company would face bankruptcy."

"I don\'t care."

"You are one confusing asshol*."

"I don\'t care. It would recover soon. It\'s not like my departure would ruin the company."

Confused, Sienna asked. "What are you planning to do?"

"Leave the country."

Hm? Isn\'t that her plan? Seeing the convection in his eyes, Sienna let out a sigh.

"So… both of us are leaving the company," she said. That would surely bring down the stock prices, but… what he said was right. Rouse Tech would recover. They will find a new executive to handle everything and they would soon forget about the heir who left the company.

"I came to say goodbye," Grant said. "I — I might not see you again."

Well… "What about Amanda? Is she coming with you?"

"Why would she come with me?"

"…" What kind of ending is this? "But you two…" Sienna wanted to tell him that Amanda would be good for him. But she stopped when Grant\'s face darkened.

"You are not really going to push me to another woman after rejecting me, right?" he asked.

"Eh?"

"Sorry… I just… I\'m leaving." And once again, he left without even waiting for her to speak.

Wow!

That was one hell of a moody man.

Sienna sighed and called Jane, asking her to change the password of her flat. Grant knew the password of her flat so he would use it anytime he wanted to visit her. And Sienna didn\'t want him here, unannounced.

After all, Male leads have an invisible magnet for trouble.

To be honest, she just wanted to focus on Scarlette so she can already leave this world and meet Mo Li.

After a while, Jane left to finish some tasks, leaving Sienna alone inside her flat.

The silence, while comforting, was enough to remind her she needed to hurry.

Mo Li… must be waiting for her in that world!

"Hah…. It looked like it was just the two of us… Miss Rouse."

Sienna turned and was surprised to see Scarlette. The surprise vanished as quickly as it arrive.

She had a weird smile on her face as she slowly lifted her hand and pointed a gun at Sienna. "Why don\'t you sit down on your bed first?" Scarlette said. "After all, this will be a very… very long night."

"What happened to your face?" Sienna calmly sat on the bed. While Scarlette tried to hide the bruises with thick makeup, the bruises were still pretty obvious.

"Who told you that you can ask questions?" Scarlette snorted. She hated how calm Sienna was. Did she think Scarlette won\'t kill her tonight? Was she looking down on her?

Scarlette snorted at the thought.

This is her night!

At the end of today, only one of them would walk out of this room, alive.
