Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 715: Misfortunes Never Come Alone
Right away, she felt that it must be Maxwell Saxon’s car.
Even though he had saved her the first time by following her, when Scarlett Yates realized she was being followed again, her anger flared up instantly.
As soon as the light turned red, she quickly crossed the sidewalk and ran to the opposite street.
Realizing she was being followed by Maxwell Saxon once more, she had to give up the idea of eating at the seafood stall. To avoid Maxwell, she saw a nearby alley and ran into it without hesitation.
The alley was deep and winding.
She had been running for quite some time, taking several turns, before she finally reached the end of the alley.
When she exited the alley, the street she saw was completely different from before.
One side was bustling, the other deserted.
The layout was indeed peculiar; just across an alley, the hustle and bustle were entirely different.
Scarlett Yates had never been to this place before.
There were few people on the street, with little pedestrian or vehicle traffic.
Most of the shops on the street were open, but there were hardly any customers inside, giving a desolate feeling.
Scarlett thought about how fast she had run just now, and estimated that Maxwell hadn’t reacted yet. Even if he did get out of the car to chase her, he wouldn’t know she was here.
Unless...
Well, unless he had a dog’s nose and could track her scent.
After shaking off that annoying tail, Scarlett’s stomach growled again.
She was just contemplating finding a place to eat and fill her belly when suddenly everything went dark as someone blocked the streetlight.
Scarlett smelled a familiar scent.
It was as if someone had shoved a bunch of roses up her nose; the overpowering, pungent aroma made her sneeze several times.
Before she could look up to see who it was, a clenched voice came from above her head: "Scarlett Yates, you bitch, I’ve finally caught up with you."
Scarlett rubbed her nose and looked up in surprise at the woman blocking the streetlight, furrowing her brow: "Alexis Denton."
The sudden appearance of Alexis Denton startled Scarlett.
In just a few days, how had this woman changed so drastically?
If Alexis had once been a proud peacock, now she was like a crow shrouded in darkness.
Seeing her was enough to make someone shiver.
Her seductive, slender eyes were no longer filled with arrogance and superiority as before; they were veiled with a dark aura, and her gaze was sinister and cold, stabbing at Scarlett with hatred.
If looks could kill, Alexis Denton probably would have already killed her.
This woman exuded danger from every pore.
Scarlett recalled the words spoken by the male prostitute and the videos, and seeing Alexis now, looking as if she wished to dismember her, Scarlett felt that Alexis must have learned the true identity of the man who had stayed with her at the hotel.
Scarlett couldn’t help but take a step back.
If Alexis truly knew the truth and blamed everything on her, then meeting Alexis here was definitely not a coincidence.
"Trying to leave? Do you think you can still get away?" Alexis saw through her intention, a malicious cold smile forming on her lips. She waved her hand and sneered, "Grab that bitch for me."
