The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 123 Eternal Sleep

?Bryson stopped about four steps from Scarlett. He smiled at her while taking out his gun and pointed at her forehead.

p?nd?`no??1--?o? Just before Bryson wanted to shoot Scarlett, Luaren shouted, "Stop it!"

"Damn it!!" An annoyed Bryson turned his head back to look at Lauren. "Why are you stopping me, Lauren!? Have you changed your mind, want to give this little girl to me?" His eyes flashed lustfully at the thought that Scarlett was naked in bed.

"NO!" she snapped. Lauren looked at Scarlett, who was looking at her with questioning eyes. "...I have something to say before you die." She smiled. She stepped forward and stood beside Bryson.

Lauren continued, "You have the right to know before death takes you. Actually, you are not the biological child of Jonathan Piers. Your mother had you before she married Jonathan..."

Earlier, Scarlett could hold back her expression to show the genuine emotions in her heart. However, Lauren's words just now made her emotional dam collapse. She was shocked beyond words.

'Jonathan isn't my biological father!? Impossible! This woman wants to mess with my mind, right!?' She thought.

"Auntie, if you want to kill me, just do it!" Scarlett finally said something after a long silence, "...you don't need to say such things!!"

"Oh my... Why should I lie to you? I'm telling the truth because I feel sorry for you, alright! Little bitch... you trust your father too much. He's not as good as you think he is. What he's doing now is to make you believe he is your father, and in the end, he will take over your mother's company!" she smiled.

"You don't believe me, do you?" Lauren asked after seeing Scarlett not say another word, but she could see through her eyes anger had erupted in them.

Instantly joy appeared in Lauren's heart when she saw Scarlett angry.

"That's right! I don't believe you!" said Scarlett.

Although there was a bit of doubt in her heart, she believed in her father. Besides, still vividly in her mind, her father only admitted that Nicole was not his daughter.

"Hahaha, I could already predict that you wouldn't believe it. That's why I took the evidence from Jonathan's study. Well, I have the proof if you want to see it before you die..."

A mischievous smile appeared on Lauren's face. She was pleased to see Scarlett's expression starting to change; it changed from calm, followed by surprise and fear at the same time. This was the first time Lauren had seen Scarlett like this.

Even though Scarlett didn't believe this woman, a hint of curiosity somehow rose in her mind. And all she could do was ask, "Y-You have proof?"

"Sure! I have all the evidence in the car..."Lauren answered confidently.

This is Lauren's bigger plan. Even though she is divorced from Jonathan, she will never let Jonathan live happily.

She took many valuable documents from Jonathan and would use them to blackmail him in the future. However, she did not expect to have the opportunity to eliminate this little slut, Scarlett. And it would be a shame if this girl died without knowing the truth about her past.

Scarlett inwardly smiled after hearing Lauren's words.

A second later, without any warning, Scarlett moved quickly, as a sign she started killing these two idiots.

Unknowingly, the gun in his hand disappeared. Bryson stared at his hands in shock. "What the F..." He can't finish his words as a loud 'bang' echo thru that place. His vision instantly darkened as he lost all sense of reason.

Lauren instantly froze; witness Bryson's muscular body slump on the hard road with his face kissing the asphalt.

Seeing his lifeless body made Lauren's heart sink. 'H-He's dead!?'

She was shocked. How could Scarlett do it? How could she move so fast to steal the gun and shoot Bryson without batting an eye, as if she had done this many times?

'Who is this girl? Is she really Scarlett?'

A drop of sweat rolled down Lauren's forehead as she stepped back when she saw the girl walking towards her.

Y-you!! S-Stop!! Aaaaahh" Lauren screamed when Scarlett kicked and landed on her chest. She could feel her body thrown backward and hit the car so hard.

An indescribable pain surged through her back, making her howl in pain until her throat felt hurt. Later, her body fell onto the road.

Thud!

Lauren couldn't move her body because her bones seemed crushed no matter how small she moved. With blurry eyes, she saw Scarlett looking at her sharply.

"W-What are you doing..." She couldn't finish her words as blood came out of her mouth. "Cough! Cough!"

She stared at Scarlett in horror, like she'd seen the grim reaper coming to take her life.

'I... can't die now! I must find a way to make this girl spare my life!' Lauren muttered in her heart.

She will do anything; to beg this girl, even if it makes her pride crumble.

"Please don't kill me, Scarlett. I am your mother. I raised you since you were six years old..." Tears began to roll from the corners of her eyes.

'Do you want to trap me with your tears!? Dream on!' Scarlett chuckled inwardly.

Not seeing Scarlett say anything, Lauren continued, "Scarlett, I know I have many sins against you. Therefore, I deeply apologize to you. Give me a chance. I promise I will never appear in front of you again."

Lauren tried to kneel in front of Scarlett, but the pain in her back was unbearable, making her no longer have the strength to move her body. She just waited for her reply in an awkward position, her back on the asphalt with her face looking up at her.

The coldness in Scarlett's eyes became most apparent as she said, "I have never met a woman as evil as you. You are a lot worse than the evildoers in jail. That's why what you have done and could do with your evil mind must be condemned. And I condemn you to eternal sleep!"

Without batting an eye, she shot Lauren in the forehead.
