Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 1086

Chapter 1086 Treacherous

After finishing her speech, she lifted her foot to kick Olivia, who then collapsed on the ground.

In the next moment, a chilling scream echoed throughout the room.

The surrounding servants all bowed their heads, afraid to even breathe heavily.

Currently, the Xuereb family was under Scarlett's rule. If they wanted to keep their high-paying jobs, they couldn't afford to offend her.

Seeing Scarlett not being stopped and the once respectful servants remaining silent, allowing Scarlett to trample over her, Olivia felt even more desolate inside.

A deep regret spread within her heart, causing her entire body to tremble intensely.

"Scarlett, you will face consequences. You will indeed face consequences."

Scarlett kicked her a few times but still didn't feel relieved.

Watching Olivia's twisted old face, she leaned in, ready to slap her twice more.

At that moment, a flurry of hurried footsteps echoed, followed by the flickering of magnesium lights all around.

"Ms. Scarlett, we have a problem. A swarm of journalists have barged in from outside. They're heading straight for the main house, and the bodyguards can't stop them."

Scarlett was stunned.

After a good five or six seconds of stunned silence, she suddenly snapped back to her senses.

I mustn't let the reporters catch me mistreating my mother-in-law, or else I would truly struggle to find my footing in Hallsbay.

Although my reputation has taken a hit, it's not yet a complete disaster.

If the reporters get a hold of me today, I fear there might be no chance for me to turn things around.

With that thought, she quickly turned to the servants standing silently around her and snapped, "You fools, why are you still standing there? Quickly take this old hag to the infirmary and lock her up. Assign more people to guard her. Don't let her run around outside."

Several housekeepers rushed over, reaching out to help Olivia, who was slumped on the ground.

"Mrs. Xuereb, please listen to Ms. Scarlett's advice and take good care of yourself in the infirmary."

"Exactly, if you behave, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble."

Would Olivia listen to them? Not only did she not listen, but she also assertively clung to the door frame, not allowing them to touch her even slightly.

The reporters outside were all summoned by her, with the sole purpose of exposing the true face of this vile woman to the world.

The Xuereb family had already fallen apart, and she couldn't possibly let the main culprit live a thriving life under the guise of being the young mistress of the Xuereb family.

She would expose all the misdeeds of this woman for the world to know.

Even if she ended up being the laughingstock of everyone, she wouldn't mind at all.

"Haha, Scarlett, you're scared now, aren't you? It's too late for regrets. If you had known what would happen today, would you have acted so ruthlessly in the past? If you hadn't pushed me too far, why would I have chosen to fight you to the bitter end?"

Scarlett's face darkened, and she angrily said, "Useless! Can't you even handle an old hag? What's the point of keeping you around?"

The housekeepers were greatly alarmed, and their grip on Olivia tightened even more.

As the sound of footsteps gradually approached, a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Olivia's lips.
