Chapter Index

    “This…”

    Scarlett’s brows furrowed tightly, with a hint of hesitation and struggle on her face.

    There seemed to be two voices arguing fiercely in her heart, and one voice was urging her to seize this opportunity, give it a try, and escape from the fate of being a puppet.

    Another voice warned her that Ye Fan’s strength was unfathomable, and rash actions would only plunge herself into an abyss of eternal destruction.

    Before Scarlett could respond, the woman in white struck again while the iron was hot, her tone full of urgency:

    “Now Ye Fan’s focus is on the Amber Group and dealing with Tiemu Cihua’s crusade, and he also has enough trust in you!”

    “If you give him a knife in the back at this time, he will definitely be killed! This is also your only chance to kill Ye Fan!”

    “Otherwise, once he has established a foothold and dealt with the foreign troubles, you will never have a chance to deal with him again!”

    “At that time, you will not only have to be a puppet for the rest of your life, but you may even be mercilessly eliminated by him to reduce the risk of Stannie taking power! Give the order!”

    The woman in white suddenly pulled out the pistol from her waist, with a murderous intent in her voice: “When the matter is done, I just want double the benefits!”

    “This…”

    Hearing the words of the woman in white, Scarlett’s body trembled violently.

    She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she just closed her mouth helplessly.

    Over the past few days, she had witnessed with her own eyes the power and ruthlessness of the woman in white.

    Not only did she eliminate many Amber backbones for herself, but she also successfully helped her break into the inner circle of the Boston Garden with her extraordinary resourcefulness and skill.

    If it were in the past, Scarlett might not hesitate to follow the advice of the woman in white and decisively order to attack Mark.

    However, after experiencing Steve’s incident, Scarlett has lost the absolute confidence she once had.

    Whenever she wanted to make up her mind, she could not help but picture Ye Fan taking control of the situation while talking and laughing, and a sense of danger arose in her heart.

    Scarlett raised her head and took another sip of wine, as if she wanted to use the alcohol to give herself a little more courage.

    She gritted her teeth and finally said, “Don’t act rashly. Let me think about this again…”

    The woman in white had an obvious urge in her tone:

    “What else is there to think about?”

    “As long as you ask yourself, are you willing to be a puppet for the rest of your life, the answer will be obvious!”

    “Now is the best time to backstab Ye Fan. If you don’t do it now, I’m afraid you won’t have such an opportunity again!”

    “After careful consideration, I feel that I am only 60% sure of success at this moment.”

    “Once Ye Fan has dealt with the foreign troubles, we will not have any chance to attack him, and he may even have his hands free to kill him easily.”

    “Decide, Miss Scarlett, wealth can be found in danger!”

    The woman in white reminded again: “Either you will explode in wealth, or you will die in wealth, but no matter what, you can’t be a salted fish to be slaughtered!”

    Scarlett’s eyelids beat violently again, and she was in an extreme struggle inside.

    She knew that everything the woman in white said was reasonable, and this moment might indeed be the time when Mark was at his weakest.

    However, when she thought of Mark’s methods, even Steve’s throat was easily blocked by him with a sword, Scarlett’s determination was like a candle in the wind, wavering.

    After all, the choice between this thought is like a fork in the road between heaven and hell. If you make a wrong step, you will be doomed.

    The woman in white urged her further: “Miss Scarlett, please stop being messed with!”

    Scarlett’s head started to hurt: “I feel very uneasy…”

    The woman in white’s voice sank: “Are you afraid that we can’t kill Ye Fan? You’ve already seen our results these days. When I say we’re 60% sure, it’s 60%!”

    Scarlett bit her lip: “For someone like Mark, it’s not a 100% sure-fire situation, I guess…”

    The woman in white had murderous intent: “Sixty percent is just my conservative estimate. In fact, I have never made a mistake since my debut! I’ll give you a minute to think about it!”

    “Okay!”

    Scarlett finally drank the remaining wine in the glass and shouted loudly: “I have decided…not to move!”

    The woman in white was startled, as if she was very surprised by Scarlett’s decision.

    She was silent for a moment, then asked in a low voice: “Are you going to be a puppet for the rest of your life?”

    Scarlett pulled open her collar and gasped for air, as if she wanted to vent all the depression in her heart.

    She responded with firm eyes:

    “I don’t want to be a puppet, and I don’t want to be dependent on others, but I know my own strength better!”

    “No matter how unwilling and reluctant I am, compared with Mark, there is a huge gap between me and Ye Fan!”

    “I won’t stab him in the back. Although I may not be able to be the helmsman, I can at least ride the waves on his ship.”

    “Even if you are just a bystander, you can still see the scenery at a higher level!”

    “If I choose to backstab him, there may be a one in a hundred, no, one in ten thousand chance of becoming the helmsman.”

    “But the greater chance is that he will be thrown overboard without mercy and become food in the belly of the fish!”

    “So, I don’t want to gamble!”

    “Besides, I was originally a arrogant daughter who was just waiting for death. I am able to reach this point purely because of your help and Ye Fan’s promotion.”

    “It’s time for me to face myself. I should be satisfied with the status quo. Greed will only lead me to a situation that is beyond redemption!”

    The woman in white stared at Scarlett closely for a full minute, as if to see from her eyes whether she had really made up her mind.

    Finally, she asked: “Have you really decided to be a coward?”

    Scarlett sighed again, her voice full of helplessness and relief: “When you stare at greed, greed is also staring at you!”

    At this moment, she gave in, but her heart was also at peace.

    “Understood!”

    The woman in white finally nodded, and the expression on her face gradually returned to calm.

    “Okay, I’ll never mention this again.”

    She added: “But in this way, my mission is completed, and it’s time for us to say goodbye!”

    Scarlett gently wiped the coldness on her pretty face, as if wiping away the last trace of hesitation and confusion in her heart.

    She allowed herself to completely regain her composure: “We have been working together for so long, and I still don’t know your name? Before leaving, can you leave your real name?”

    Scarlett’s heart was filled with gratitude to the woman in white.

    Without her, he might have been secretly murdered as early as when he turned over the table at the first family meeting.

    That unintentional act in the bar actually bought me such incredible wealth.

    Scarlett felt that she should remember this mysterious oriental woman throughout her life.

    “Cai Lingzhi!”

    The woman in white whispered these three words, then put away her weapon, turned around and left slowly…
