He Lost Me to His Best Friend novel Chapter 661

At 6:00 PM.

Chatwin and Talia finally landed safely at the Bay City airport.

Waiting at the VIP exit, Scarlett felt a massive weight lift off her chest the moment she saw Talia walk out, wearing a brand-new dress and leaning against Chatwin with a faint smile on her face.

That night, Scarlett stayed by Talia's side the entire time.

She patiently pieced together every detail of the ordeal—from the online scam and the flight to Tyrellia Country, to her capture by Kane's men, and the terrifying encounter with Kane himself.

Throughout the night, Scarlett's emotions wildly fluctuated.

Despite Talia's naturally optimistic personality—she downplayed the physical abuse and kept insisting she wasn't badly hurt—Scarlett wasn't blind. The deep purple bruises on Talia's arms and legs, her swollen face, and the nasty scratches on her neck told a different story.

Scarlett pulled her best friend into a tight, protective embrace and gently patted her shoulder.

"I'm so sorry, Talia. It's all my fault you had to go through this."

Still completely in the dark about the true mastermind, Talia shook her head vigorously.

"No, no, you can't blame yourself! It's my fault for being so naive. I actually let some random guy online completely fool me. Looking back, I feel like such an idiot."

Scarlett's eyes darkened, and she bit her lip hard.

"It wasn't just some random scam. It was a highly sophisticated setup orchestrated by Sylvia and Kane. They must have done a deep dive into your background and tailored the entire trap specifically for you. That's why you fell for it."

"What?!"

Talia's eyes went wide with shock. "You're saying... this whole romance scam, the kidnapping, almost getting sold off to Merland Country—that was all Sylvia's doing?"

"Yes," Scarlett confirmed. "And Gordon's car crash? She and Kane were behind that, too."

Talia practically leaped out of bed, her eyes blazing with righteous fury.

"That bitch was behind it the whole time!"
