Temptation From Her Ex-husband novel Chapter 1

"Yo, Sister-In-Law, what’s the matter? Are you running away from home?"

Scarlett Reed was just walking down from the second floor with her suitcase when Tiffany Shaw's sarcastic voice came right after.

Instead of acknowledging her, Scarlett only took a slight glance at her and continued to walk down the stairs with her suitcase.

Coincidentally, she ran into Raymond Shaw's mom as soon as she reached the first floor. Jean Larson, the rich woman who had always looked down on her, cast a sidelong glance at her. "Where are you going with a suitcase this early in the morning?"

Having been Jean's daughter-in-law for three years, how could Scarlett not know that this was a sign of trouble?

If it was in the past, she would have carefully apologized and coaxed her mother-in-law. Nonetheless, things were different this time. She did not want Raymond anymore, hence she would not even serve this bad-tempered old lady anymore, i "Anywhere is good. Don't worry, Mrs. Shaw, I won't

come back to the Shaw Residence anymore.”

Unlike how dutiful and gentle Scarlett used to be, although she spoke indifferently, her eyes did not show the usual look to please. The coldness in them made her look different.

Jean was very not used to her daughter-in-law, who had always bowed down to her in the past, suddenly talking back to her like this. Her face instantly darkened, "Scarlett Reed, is this how you treat an elder?"

"How you treat me is how I'll treat you."

Scarlett raised her good-looking eyebrow. Her incomprehensible arrogance and coolness made Jean furious. "Scarlett, do you still take me as your mother-i n-law?"

Upon hearing that, Scarlett looked at Jean and curled her lips into a smile. "I'm sorry. Soon, you won't be my mother-in-law anymore."

As soon as she finished, the sound of a car horn was heard coming from outside the villa.

Scarlett raised an eyebrow and said, "I'm leaving, Mrs. Shaw. Everything I left behind in the room is unwanted, so you can do whatever you like with them. Whether you throw them away or burn them, just remember-don't contact me anymore."

As she spoke, she leisurely dragged her suitcase out and uttered, "The Shaw family is too disgusting."

Jean had not yet come back to her senses from when Scarlett said that she would soon not be her mother-in -law anymore, then she heard her say something like that. She was fuming with her. "Scarlett, are you out of your mind? Believe it or not, I'll tell Ray that you-"

"Mom, did you see that woman, Scarlett? She’s really funny. It's early in the morning, and she's actually dragging her suitcase. Hahaha, she didn't walk past m e on purpose so that I'll ask her to stay, right?"

Tiffany walked out of the villa. Seeing as Jean stood there without moving at all, she could not help but lift her hand and tug at her sleeve. "Mom, what’s wrong with you?"

Jean had a complicated look on her face. In the past, Scarlett would behave well whenever she mentioned Raymond. This time, heck, she actually left without looking back.

Outside the door, the sports car drove off fast. By the time Jean walked out the door, she could only see its shadow.

"She, she left?"

Tiffany followed her outside and curled her lips. "So b e it. Julie is back. If she doesn’t leave now, Elder Brother will kick her out sooner or later!"

Jean thought the same. The Woods family's youngest daughter had returned. Scarlett would be quite sensible if she could ask for a divorce.

At this moment, the sensible Scarlett was flipping through the divorce agreement in a Porsche. After reading the terms and conditions, she signed her name with satisfaction.

Alexis Carter, who was driving on the side, saw her and clicked her tongue. "You're really doing it just like that?"
