He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 39

When Talia's name flashed on her screen, Scarlett ignored a callback from Yardley and answered her best friend.

"Scarlett! Where are you? I went to your apartment and you weren't there!"

"I'm at Azure Estates right now," Scarlett replied calmly. "It's quiet here. Nobody can bother me."

Talia immediately let out an ear-piercing scream.

"What?!"

"When did you move into Azure Estates?! That's literally the most exclusive billionaire neighborhood in the entire country! Scarlett, you have to be messing with me!"

Scarlett chuckled, pressing a finger to her lips as if Talia could see her.

"Keep your voice down."

Lowering her tone, she confessed.

"My family arranged it. Once things settle down, I'll bring you over for a tour."

Talia was vibrating with excitement.

"Settle down? Scarlett, you don't love me anymore! You're living the high life and leaving me behind!"

Scarlett laughed, thoroughly amused. "No, no. It was just a rushed move. I didn't have time to tell you."

Just as Scarlett finished her sentence, Talia gasped again.

"Scarlett, the internet is blowing up! Someone just dropped an incredibly juicy blind item practically spelling out the affair between Yardley and Sylvia!"

"Did you do this behind my back too? You're making moves so fast I can't even keep up with you anymore!"

Raising an eyebrow, Scarlett smiled and refreshed the trending page on her tablet.

Sure enough, Stellan's efficiency was unmatched. The story was already the number one trend.

Even without releasing the photos and audio yet, the story dominated the headlines. The hashtags were brutally targeted. Anyone with half a brain could read between the lines and see exactly what was going on between Yardley and Sylvia.

"I had someone help me," Scarlett said. "Talia, I'm done holding back. I'm taking them all down."

Talia's voice pitched even higher with thrill.
