Rising from the Ashes (Andrew) novel Chapter 1881

Henry asked, "You didn't forget about Luna, did you?"

Scarlett's face darkened slightly. "Of course I didn't forget that bitch. Because of her, the Driscoll family still can't move freely in Blumedale. But this time, no matter how capable she is, she won't be able to stop my plan. Truth is, I was the one behind the parasite poisoning incident in Gabo Creek."

She continued, "And now, Derek's chief of staff, Chantelle, is already heading over to investigate. This is my first step in taking Derek down. Hank, that pervert in Special Ops, is going to help me finish the job perfectly."

Henry clapped his hands, his expression full of admiration. "Scarlett, now I believe you might just have what it takes to sit at the top of the Union. Your setup, one move leading into the next… I have to say, I'm impressed."

Scarlett looked even more pleased with herself. Her eyes swept across the room and landed on Andrew. She asked, "So, how's the hypnosis going on that little bastard?"

Henry nodded, then shook his head. "It's going okay, but pretty soon, he'll be fully under my control."

Scarlett's eyes grew wary as she glanced at Eric's back. "You teaming up with Mr. Humphrey is a deadly combo. It's such a shame for the Driscoll family. No matter how hard they tried to please Mr. Humphrey, he never gave them the time of day."

Henry puffed out his chest and grinned slyly. "Well, of course. My charm isn't something the Driscoll family can compete with."

Scarlett let out a strange laugh and turned to leave. She was well aware that Henry's so-called 'charm' was just sleeping with Eric. Too bad Eric was not into women. Otherwise, she might have taken off her clothes and tried seducing him herself.

Scarlett's phone rang as soon as she stepped out of the villa.

"Scarlett, I want some milk!" came the voice on the other end.

She forced down her disgust and cooed, "Joseph, you're so naughty. I'll give you some when I get back, okay?"

Andrew's expression had turned icy.

So Scarlett was the one behind all the evil that happened in Gabo Creek?

First, there was the parasite poison incident. So many innocent civilians were affected, and it was her doing.

Now, she was planning to target Chantelle, using that as a move against Derek. What a ruthless two-birds-one-stone plan.

Hank's abuse of Hannah from the Keller family was meant to crush them completely, and Scarlett was behind it all.

This woman clearly needed to be sent straight to hell.
