Temptation From Her Ex-husband novel Chapter 443

It could be said that news of the incident caused quite a stir in Juanton City.

Everybody found it difficult to accept the fact that Scarlett had turned from a woman abandoned by a wealthy family into the biggest shareholder of a company.

Apart from anything else, it was common knowledge that back at the time when Scarlett married Raymond, she had no family members attending the wedding, only two friends. It was said that even her dowries were meager, which was why so many people had thought little of her before she married into the Shaw family.

Afterward Scarlett had divorced Raymond.

News of her leaving the Shaw family without taking a penny with her had caused a sensation.

But now rumor had it that Scarlett invested over a billion bucks in Centel. Outsiders couldn't help but suspect that it was impossible.

As more and more people began to compliment Scarlett on her audaciousness and wealth, some discordant voices gradually came to her ears.

One of the social media influencers even typed up an article of over five thousand words within two hours after the occurrence of the incident, explaining speculatively how Scarlett had gotten that much money.

Two conclusions were drawn at the end of the 5000-word article. The first one was that when Scarlett and Raymond divorced, she had taken something with her. Maybe the reason why some people said Scarlett had left the family without taking a penny was because she hadn't demanded any compensation in cash, but she had gotten some fixed assets, such as houses, cars and so on, which explained why Scarlett had still been living in a mansion, driving a luxury car and leading an extravagant life after divorce.

The second conclusion was that Scarlett had gotten the money from her fiancee Larry Tank, or the Tank family.

Both conclusions sounded perfectly plausible and well founded.

Of course, the blogger himself was more inclined to believe that the first one was the truth, for he felt that the Tank family always tended to keep a low profile.

Although over a billion dollars was only a hair off a bull's back to the Tank family, Scarlett was merely Larry’s fiancee. There was no way the Tank family could have given her that much money.

Shortly after the influencer posted the article, someone analyzed why Scarlett had invested all her money in Centel to become its biggest shareholder.

And then the Scarlett-Julie-Raymond triangle was brought up. Many people believed that Scarlett was doing this in revenge for what she had suffered back then.

After that, a group of clicktivists began to taunt Scarlett, saying that being rich didn't change the fact that Raymond had divorced her.
