Chapter 96 Who Really Got the Advantage?
Scarlet kissed him back, enjoying the pleasure he brought.
He has a great knack for pleasing women, always finding her point, intoxicating and narcoticising her. Previous resistance turned to lust, previous disgust turned to wanting to do it all over again.
The atmosphere was in full swing.
The camera in the dark corner flickered on and off, capturing their acts clearly.
When Rebecca received the short video, she was chatting with Talia: [They were being set up by the paparazzi. The paparazzi tricked them into showing their love in public under the reputation of making them money. As a result, those shots didn’t make them any money, but were used by the paparazzi instead]
Talia: [Who told you that]
Rebecca: [They all say the same thing, and so does Elias]
Talia: [You believe what he says?]
Rebecca was checking the short video, she thought it was a virus and wanted to delete it, but she felt that the figure on it looked a bit familiar, so she clicked on it to see …… Crap!Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Her pupils dilated and her eyes glazed over: Elias, who had said he missed her, was now having sex with Scarlet!
Scarlet, who claimed she wouldn’t like Elias, was incomparably proactive at this time, and was able to turn her passivity into initiative.
Instead of seeing her dislike, Rebecca saw her like: she chased after Elias for a kiss, took Elias’s hand for a hug, held Elias’ …… her breath thickened and her brain buzzed.
She pulled the progress bar to the end.
Scarlet sat down on Elias’s lap again, hugged him and kissed him deeply, and then, once again!
Rebecca felt that Talia’s words were right: could Elias’s words be trusted? He was saying that he missed her while he was having sex with Scarlet. Before Jasper backed her up, Elias had been avoiding her and wouldn’t even answer her phone.
Would such a Elias be in love with her?
No! Elias had no love for anyone, he just wanted money!
If Helena still had money after leaving the Yip family, he would have continued to choose Helena. He chose her because she had inherited the Yip family. He chose Scarlet because the Doyle family was richer than the Yip family.
When Scarlet did not appear, Elias would beg to please her.
After Scarlet was married to him and became the son-in-law of the Doyle family, did he still have to ask for her?
It was now in his eyes that she was inseparable from him, not that he was inseparable from her.
Rebecca was furious and even regretted it, calling Hugo in tears, “Dad, why did we agree to work with Scarlet? If we don’t cooperate with Scarlet, we can make a scene all the way, and Jasper will also help back us up.”
If they did not work together, Scarlet would not be Mrs. Riley, and Elias wouldn’t dare to belittle her like that: “Dad, after we work together, who’s really getting the advantage? I didn’t get any benefit at all, but Scarlet is Mrs. Riley, no matter what she does, she is doing it in a reasonable manner.”
Hugo also regretted, but: “When the contract was signed, there was no such closed competition.”
Without a closed competition, Rebecca was able to follow them out to play.
The contract was clearly written: whenever Rebecca made a request, within the normal range, Scarlet had to agree to it.
In other words: once Rebecca followed her out, Scarlet was a bystander, whether playing or sleeping, Elias belonged to Rebecca. In this way, Scarlet’s identity as Mrs. Riley was a name but not a reality.
After Rebecca took advantage of this, he could use the resources of the Relay family and the Doyle family to add a few big projects to the Yip Group. The property in Elias’s name could also be divided into two shares when Rebecca gave birth to her baby.
All these terms and conditions at the time was a benefit! Why not sign?
However, they hadn’t expected the fact that as soon as the contract was signed, the organizing committee released the news that the competition would be closed.
Rebecca was trapped in Jiangnan Manor, the media only reported: Elias and Scarlet’s show of affection, not a word about Rebecca.
There was no interaction with Rebecca.
He said: “The bad thing is this closed competition. Without this closed competition, we wouldn’t be so passive. And Helena is living outside, I can catch her, and she can’t threaten you.”
Rebecca seemed to remember something: “Dad, do you think that this closed competition could be something that Jasper deliberately staged against us? He came over that day to back us up so that Elias and Scarlet couldn’t get married, but we compromised. Why did we compromise? Can he not be suspicious? If he’s suspicious, he’ll have to find out why, and if he finds out why, he’ll let us have our way?”
Hugo’s face was ashen: would it be? Would that be the case? If that was the case, the first place in the competition, the thirty billion investment …… How had he not thought of this?
“Dad, is it possible?”
“I, I don’t know …… when I called for you the other day to ask for leave, he said it was an arrangement with the organizing committee.”
“……”
“He said it was not good for him to interfere with the organizing committee’s arrangements. He only cares about the investment and the results.”
“It’s best if this has nothing to do with him. If he really did do it, we’re done.”
“I don’t think so. He made it very clear the other day that he couldn’t interfere with the decisions of the organizing committee.”
Rebecca relaxed: “Good, otherwise …… forget it, forget it. We all forgot about it, don’t scare ourselves.”
“Okay!”
“Dad, I am not able to get out for another month. By the time I get out, I can’t change everything!”
Hugo thought that was the case, and he narrowed his eyes, saying, “I’ll find a way to separate them. If they don’t live together, they can’t have sex, and their feelings won’t get too close.”
“How are you going to control them from seeing each other after the separation?”
“……”
“Dad, you get Mum back and let her deal with Scarlet. Now is not the time to punish her, she must be the one to deal with Scarlet. Helena is at the manor and I can always find a way to drive her away.”
Hugo had no better way but to promise her: “Okay, I will go and pick her up tomorrow. You focus on the competition first, don’t think about all these things for now. No matter what, I will let you marry into the Riley family.”
All Rebecca could say was yes.
She was stuck at the manor and couldn’t even see Helena, let alone see them.
Bored and unmotivated, she called Elias, who was not available to take her calls.
Scarlet reminded him that his phone was ringing and he said, “It’s okay, leave her alone, what kind of trouble can she make?”
Since so, he would like to enjoy the sex first.
Hugo felt Lyla was useless, but Rebecca was right, against a woman like Scarlet, it was still up to Lyla. Besides, if he got Lyla killed, could Helena withdraw from the competition? If Helena withdrew, could Rebecca continue to compete?
Forget it!
Pick her up first, he made a call to her. However, his phone rang first. It was from Jasper!
