"Yvonne!" People in the scircle would never embarrass each other, let alone say something horrible like that.
Yvonne only said that because she thought that Scarlett was of inferior birth and that there was no need for her to be agreeable to Scarlett.
Raymond's gruff voice calmed Yvonne down, but she couldn't let it go, "Did | say something wrong? If she had wanted to leave you then, she would have left Juanton City and married a man she deserved! But in reality, she appears by your side from tto time. Can't you tell she's playing hard to get with you?" "Hard to get?" Scarlett chuckled and glanced at Yvonne.
Then she stared at Raymond and said word by word," Do you remember what | asked Secretary Lewis to tell you the day we got divorced, Raymond?" "It doesn't matter if you have forgotten. I'll refresh your memory." Scarlett then repeated her exact words, "Since we are divorced, it's better to pretend we don't know each other in the future." "I have always followed this principle." At this point, Scarlett paused and said, "I didn't expect that someone would think that | was pestering you and playing hard to get. Miss Sheridan's right. | really should leave this damn place and marry someone who deserves me. And you..." "Humph! You don’t deserveat all!" Scarlett snorted.

Alexander gulped with shock at Scarlett's words.
If it weren't for the awkwardness of the atmosphere, h e would give Scarlett the thumbs-up sign and exclaim, "You're the man!" It was the first the had heard a woman say Raymond didn’t deserve her.
Alexander was excited and shocked to witness this moment with his own eyes.
Obviously, he was not the only one shocked by Scarlett's courage.
Yvonne was also astonished by Scarlett's words.
‘Jeez, how can this woman be so confident?’ When Scarlett finished, she went around Raymond and stopped beside Yvonne with a smile, "Thanks for the reminder, Miss Sheridan. You're right. | should find a man worthy of me." "You! What a cheek!" Yvonne hissed.
Instead of replying to Yvonne, Scarlett left in a leisurely manner.
Yvonne tried to console herself that Scarlett had fled out of shame, but failed.
Scarlett did not look like a loser but a winner.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlexander frowned and looked at Raymond, who looked gloomy, "Aren't you gonna chase her?" Raymond looked at Alexander when he heard that. Seeing Raymond was motionless, Alexander pulled him slightly, "Con, dude. If you keep standing here, you and Scarlett will never get back together!" Raymond suddenly cto his mind and started to run after Scarlett.
Alexander was not relieved until Raymond left.
He felt that perhaps no one in this world except Scarlett could affect Raymond's emotions.
Yvonne's words touched Scarlett's nerve. Before Scarlett married Raymond, many people held prejudice against Scarlett because they saw the video i n which Raymond asked her what reward she wanted. They thought she was an insatiable woman who wanted to marry Raymond just for his property.
But it wasn't until after Raymond and Scarlett divorced that they realized that Scarlett was not a scheming or insatiable woman but an ordinary woman who wanted to marry the man she loved.
Those people used to be the accomplices of people like Yvonne. They made Scarlett unfeeling.
