GoodReadJane gritted her teeth, "I know who you're doing all this for, Scarlett!" The smile on Scarlett's face had completely faded. She looked indifferently at Jane. " Now that you know, what are you doing here today?" Just then, Katherine knocked on the door. She had brought coffee and ssnacks.
The atmosphere in the office was weird, so Katherine put down the coffee and snacks and went out right away.

"It's nothing important. | just want to ask you since you care so much about Linley, | have something interesting on my hands and | was wondering if you were willing to pay for it." Jane had cprepared today. She took out her phone, tapped on a video, and set it on the table.
The voice was not too loud, but both of them were in silence. The desperate scream of the girl in the video echoed through the office.
"No—Please-- Letout! Letgo!" Snap! "Who told you to tell Scarlett my plan? You're so concerned about my affairs, aren't you? Is it you are into me? If you have a thing for me, tell me! How would | refuse a woman who comes especially to mess with me?" The two persons in the video were no one else but Darnell and Linley.
Scarlett had never been so furious. Since her childhood, this was the first tshe had been so irritated. Her hands clenched tightly on the couch beneath her.
Jane paused the video. She saw the anger in Scarlett's eyes, and she laughed triumphantly, "I heard Linley is depressed, and she’s been seeing a therapist lately. What would happen if | sent this video to her?" What would happen to Linley? Of course, Linley would completely fall apart! Linley hadn't climbed out of the abyss of despair. She just crawled to the edge of the well and saw the light, but if Jane stomped hard on her hand at this time, she surely could not stand it. She would be exhausted and fell back to the bottom of the abyss.

"How much money do you want?" Scarlett looked at Jane coldly, her hands trembling.
She had never seen a woman as disgusting as Jane! Jane lifted her hand and held out five fingers, "This number." "Fifty million dollars?" 'Was that all Jane wanted?” "No, half a billion dollars." "You ask too much! What makes you think | would give you money?" It was the first tScarlett had ever been threatened like this.
Jane took the phone back and smirked, "I ask too much? Well, it seems tothat Linley isn't that important to you." Looking at Jane, suddenly, Scarlett burst out laughing. She stood up from the couch. She leaned over the table with her arms popped up upon it, and looked down at Jane sternly, "Jane, you can give it a try. Take this video to Linley or her family. | have hundreds of ways to get to you." Then Scarlett paused for a moment. "I've only seen this video from you. If | see it get out anywhere afterward, I'll count it on you, Jane." Jane had never seen Scarlett being so harsh and so furious before. She thought her video would make Scarlett scared and compromised. But Scarlett didn't give in, nor was she afraid. All she had was anger.
Yes, anger, the anger that was going to consJane.
