Alexis didn't expect Shaylee to take the initiative to say hello. She looked at Shaylee and smiled. "I have not seen you in a while, Ms. Green. Your Twitter is quite eye -catching." Shaylee's face changed instantly, but she quickly calmed down. She didn't stay here and wait for them to quarrel. "Ms. Carter and Ms. Reed, | had dinner with my friend today, and I didn't expect to run into you." Scarlett smiled lightly. "What's up, Ms.
Green?" Shaylee looked at the gorgeous woman in front of her. Somehow, Scarlett's calm look made Shaylee feel guilty.
But Shaylee did not think Scarlett knew Adriel, so she wasn't afraid. "Nothing. | am just coming to say hello." She said and paused, glancing at Alexis. She then told them her purpose. "Ms.
Carter, you are also a star, so you also know that the paparazzi nowadays are very gossipy. I'm afraid of being misunderstood by them, so | stayed here to say hello to you.
The implication was that she did not have an affair with Adriel. If the paparazzi took photos of her and him, she hoped Alexis would not say anything.
Shaylee had another purpose of staying to say hello to Alexis. She took the chance to meet Alexis and tried to make others think that she and Alexis had dinner together. If the paparazzi took photos of her and Adriel, she could use this encounter to clear her name.

Alexis could barely resist the urge to roll her eyes. However, there were a lot of people coming and going, and Alexis didn't want to argue with Shaylee here, which would attract the paparazzi's attention and get herself into trouble.
"Okay, that's it. Ms. Green, your friend should be waiting for you. You can go now." Shaylee glanced at Scarlett. From start to finish, Scarlett had only spoken once, which somehow made Shaylee a little uneasy.
"Ms. Reed, you're not a star, so if your friends ask about what happened today, | hope you will hold your tongue." Alexis had already been not happy to be taken advantage of by Shaylee. When she saw Shaylee talking to Scarlett so arrogantly, her anger immediately flared up. "Ms. Green, are you kidding? Scarlett is never gossipy. I'll give you my word on that.
Alexis paused and added, "Of course, Scarlett likes to tell the truth.” Shaylee froze. She noticed Alexis's anger, so she did not dare to say more. She nodded and replied, "I do not mean anything. | am just afraid that Ms. Reed will also be involved in trouble. My friend is waiting for me, so | have to go. | will catch you later." As she said, Shaylee pulled her mask up and turned around to leave.
"Wait!" Scarlett called out to her, "Ms. Green." Shaylee frowned and asked impatiently, "Is there something else, Ms. Reed?" "We're not friends, right?" Shaylee couldn’t walk away now. "Ms. Reed, what do you mean by that?" Scarlett smiled blandly. "Just take it literally." Shaylee thought Scarlett said so on purpose. She didn't care. "I don't know you very well." "es." Scarlett nodded. "Ms. Green, | really don't know you very well. So what happened today has nothing to do with Shaylee was so embarrassed as if she had been slapped by Scarlett.
She thought Scarlett had deliberately asked that question to embarrass her, but she didn't expect that Scarlett indeed didn't want to be friends with her and that Scarlett didn't care about what happened between her and Adriel.
