GoodReadThere were not too many upper class families in Juanton City, and whoever had ever attended a party must know Libby.
The three women changed their faces at the sight of Libby. The woman who had just said Scarlett killed Raymond pursed her lips. "Con, Miss Jones. We are just gossiping casually. No one else heard us, and we will keep the gossip to ourselves. We did not spread rumors at all." Libby snorted. "I advise you to watch your tongue! It does not matter that | heard your gossip. But if Mr. Smith and Mr. Thomas heard what you said, do you know how long your companies can last?" The three women did not feel afraid until now.
They originally looked down on Scarlett after Raymond had an accident. The Tank family was in Deeton City, which was far away from Juanton City. They originally thought no one could back up Scarlett and she could suffer a lot no matter how competent she was. That was because a family without a solid foundation could not stand out in Juanton City no matter how powerful it was.

Scarlett could invite three of them to attend the year-end party of MoCorporation. Therefore, nobody dared to belittle Scarlett.
Even though they despised Scarlett, the three women were too timid to annoy Raymond's friends. They looked at each other and did not dare to retort Libby. After all, Libby relied on the Lancelot family and the Smith family, so they did not dare to mess with her.
The woman who argued with Libby just now lowered her head and did not dare to speak again. The woman beside her said," Miss Jones, sorry. We were just talking nonsense. We will not say those things anymore." Libby also knew that she was not Scarlett and she had no right to quarrel with those women who had spoken ill of Scarlett just now. If she continued to argue with them, she would be too rude.
Darrell had taught Libby that she should ask herself whether she was in a position or had the right before she stood up for someone.
Libby was in a position to do that, but she was not Scarlett, so it was not appropriate for her to quarrel with the three women.
Libby coughed lightly, and her expression softened. "Well, it's nothing. We are all outsiders. But Ms. Reed is quite nice, so we should watch our tongues.” "Miss Jones, you are right. We were too rude just now." Libby was about to say goodbye to the three women when she suddenly saw a person coming.
It was Scarlett, the person they had talked about just now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Miss Jones is right. You guys should watch your tongue in public because you may happen to run into the person you are gossiping about." Scarlett said with a smile.
The three women who were laughing at her turned pale at the sight of Scarlett.
They really did not expect that Scarlett would happen to hear them speak ill of her.
Libby also did not expect Scarlett to overhear their argument. She felt a little embarrassed at the thought of what she had said.
In fact, she was not close to Scarlett, so she was in no position to stand up for Scarlett.
Scarlett glanced at three women with a faint smile and then looked at Libby." Hello, Miss Jones." Libby smiled awkwardly, "Hello, Ms. Reed." Scarlett smiled and looked at the three women, who sounded confident as if they had evidence for her crime.
"By the way, you guys seem to have insights into Raymond's disappearance. How about | help you contact the officers investigating this case so that you can provide them with new clues?"
