The rcer family was in utter chaos every day.
’This is beyond disgusting,’ Scarlett Jewel thought.
She just couldn’t understand how a perfectly good rcer Group could be deteriorating day by day in their hands.
To put it bluntly, none of the rcer family mbers were of any use.
They were all useless.
They could take a winning hand and play it into a complete disaster.
But now that she was a daughter of the rcer Family, she couldn’t just stand by and watch them go down.
If the rcer Family fell, she would have no one to rely on in the future.
After she married into the Sinclair Family, her life wouldn’t be easy, either.
Having a family with so power to back her up would be a good thing.
The rcer Family hadn’t reached a dead end yet, so there was still a glimr of hope.
If they truly and completely offended that Mr. Lawton, then the rcer Family would have no hope of recovery.
The rcer Family truly couldn’t afford to take another hit. This business with Mr. Lawton had to be resolved.
She saw Julian rcer sitting on the sofa, his face etched with worry, chain-smoking one cigarette after another.
Scarlett Jewel "thoughtfully" brewed him a cup of Arican ginseng tea.
"Dad, I can see you’ve been worried sick about the rcer Family’s affairs lately."
"This is so Arican ginseng tea I made especially for you."
"It can help calm your nerves and relieve fatigue."
How could Julian rcer possibly be in the mood for Arican ginseng tea right now?
His mind was consud with figuring out how to trick Claire rcer into Mr. Lawton’s bed.
Even just luring her back to the rcer estate would be a start.
As long as she returned to the rcer estate, he would use "special thods" to deliver her to Mr. Lawton.
But right now, Claire rcer was completely unwilling to set foot in the rcer estate ever again.
"Don’t worry, there’s nothing that can’t be solved."
Scarlett Jewel placed the ginseng tea on the coffee table in front of him.
"Then tell what to do," Julian rcer said, lifting his eyes to give Scarlett Jewel a displeased glare.
"Mr. Lawton just issued an ultimatum."
"If we don’t deliver Claire rcer to his bed, he’s going to make a move against the rcer Family."
"How can the rcer Family possibly withstand that right now?"
Judith Caldwell had just been beaten and had only now recovered slightly.
Recently, Julian rcer’s dostic abuse had beco more and more frequent.
With the rcer Group on the verge of collapse, Julian rcer was a complete ss.
His temper grew worse by the day, and he took all his frustrations out on her.
To make matters worse, the video she had recorded earlier had backfired spectacularly.
That was what had led to the rcer Family’s current predicant, on the brink of collapse.
She was in the wrong; she had made a mistake, so all she could do was endure it.
Now, she also wanted to do sothing to redeem herself in Julian rcer’s eyes.
’If I can solve this problem with Mr. Lawton, maybe Julian rcer will stop hitting ,’ she thought.
With that in mind, Judith Caldwell said,
"If all else fails, we’ll just kidnap that little bitch."
The mont she said it, Julian rcer shot her another cold, knife-like glare.
He actually let out a laugh, exasperated by Judith Caldwell’s words.
He licked his dry lips, raised his hand, and slapped Judith Caldwell across the face again.
"You’re a fucking complete and utter idiot."
"Did you get your brains squeezed out at birth?"
"Last ti, we locked her in that dark room for less than half an hour and got dragged to the police station for three days."
"And now you’re coming up with this rotten idea to kidnap her? Are you trying to drag down with you to rot in jail?"
The slap made Judith Caldwell’s already red and swollen face even worse.
Scarlett Jewel shot Judith Caldwell a disgusted look, silently cursing her. ’What a moron.’
Outwardly, she imdiately put on a gentle and caring smile and asked Julian rcer,
"Dad, we still haven’t signed the ’Adoption Annulnt Agreent,’ have we?"
"Sign? What’s there to sign?" Judith Caldwell shrieked resentfully.
"That little bitch has ruined the rcer Family! Why should we give her what she wants?"
"It’s good that you haven’t signed it," Scarlett Jewel said with a calm and confident smile.
"I have a way to lure her out now."
Hearing her ntion the "Adoption Annulnt Agreent," Julian rcer instantly understood.
"You an, we use her desire to sign the ’Adoption Annulnt Agreent’ to trick her into coming to the rcer estate?"
Scarlett Jewel nodded. "She’s been desperate for you to sign this agreent."
"So why can’t we use this agreent as bait to make her walk right into our trap?"
"Isn’t that much safer than kidnapping her and bringing her here?"
At her words, Julian rcer’s eyes instantly lit up. "Yes! Why didn’t I think of that?"
If they told Claire rcer now that they were willing to sign the "Adoption Annulnt Agreent," she would definitely co to the rcer estate.
And as long as she was there, they wouldn’t have to worry about finding a way to get her into Mr. Lawton’s bed.
Or perhaps they could just have Mr. Lawton co over when it was ti to sign the agreent.
In any case, once they delivered her to him, whatever he planned to do next would have nothing to do with the rcer Family.
At that thought, Julian rcer, who had been overwrought with anxiety just monts ago, was suddenly ecstatic.
"My dear daughter is still the smart one, just like ."
"Unlike certain idiots who only know how to co up with rotten ideas."
Judith Caldwell knew Julian rcer was calling her an idiot.
But right now, she didn’t dare say a word in protest and could only stand timidly to the side.
"Call Claire rcer right now. Tell her to find so ti in the next couple of days to co back and sign the ’Adoption Annulnt Agreent’."
"If you can’t even handle this, then just pack your bags and get out."
Judith Caldwell nodded hastily.
Scarlett Jewel imdiately reminded her. "Mom, when you call her, you absolutely cannot let her see through our act."
"She’s extrely perceptive. If she senses anything unusual about our behavior, it will make her suspicious."
"Then things could get really difficult, and tricking her into coming back to the rcer estate would be next to impossible."
"I’ll tell you what to say so she’ll believe we’re genuinely going to sign."
"As long as she believes we truly want to sign that agreent, she’ll take the bait."
"What should I say?"
Scarlett Jewel leaned close to Judith Caldwell’s ear and whispered a few words.
「anwhile.」
Claire rcer had no idea that her flash marriage had thrown the rcer Family into utter chaos.
She was currently focused on preparing for the design competition.
Whenever she had a free mont, she was glued to her computer, researching all sorts of materials.
When Judith Caldwell’s call ca in, she was looking up information on traditional aesthetics.
She knew Judith Caldwell would definitely call to confront her.
More than an hour had already passed since she had officially announced her marriage registration.
This was much later than she had expected.
However, she was now quite looking forward to hearing Judith Caldwell’s impotent roars of fury.
The more she roared, the more it proved her anger.
As long as the rcer family was unhappy, she was quite happy.
With that thought, she swiped the answer key.
