Alexis knew a lot of people around Petrine. She immediately took a screenshot and sent it to Scarlett.
"Awesome! I thought you just wanted to teach her a lesson! I didn't expect you to come up with such a good idea."
Scarlett put the pizza in the pan while laughing. "I didn’t expect Jadon to get things done so fast."
Alexis on the other end of the phone frowned when Scarlett mentioned Jadon. "I heard Justin say that Jadon was a bully. You have to be careful."
"I know. Things will work out."
"Why are you so calm?"
Scarlett raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why don't you think I'm in control of everything?"
Alexis felt she was being fooled and decided to change the subject, so she asked, "Are you sure you're not coming over for dinner tonight?"
"No, you can have your own world."
"You're not going to feel sorry for yourself, right?"
Scarlett tsked. "Wow, Lexi, you're clever enough to figure it out quickly!"
"Hey, I graduated from a key university!"
"Oh, having a bachelor's degree is amazing."
Alexis said nothing. She felt that she was satirized by the know-it-all.
"I'm hanging up now."
Scarlett chose to spend Hometown Day at home alone.
The neighborhood was pretty lively, but it had nothing to do with Scarlett because she was alone.
Scarlett considered for a while whether to cook a hearty dinner but she gave up the idea because she was not good at cooking and could only cook a few simple dishes.
Her family was not rich in the past, and her parents had saved for twenty years before they bought the apartment.
