Loving You Means Having You

Scarlett, a top-tier private tutor, is a beauty that turns heads wherever she goes. Not only is she drop-dead gorgeous, but she's also a double major Ph.D. graduate from a prestigious university. Despite her beauty, she's cold-hearted and only has two close friends she can truly rely on. One is a wealthy guy who had an early coming-out and harbors feelings for his senior. The other is a quirky girl who, despite having access to billions in assets, prefers to earn her own money through her startup, always pinching pennies. Scarlett's life was supposed to be this serene, but everything changed when she met Lucius, the top dog of the city. To the public, he's an intimidating figure, cold and unapproachable. But behind closed doors, he's a different person. [Excerpts] Watching her retreating figure, Elijah teased, "Even you get the cold shoulder sometimes. Who's that, her boyfriend?" Lucius countered, "Do you know what I admire most about her?" Elijah gave a superficial answer, "Her beauty." Lucius calmly stated, "Her intelligence." Without waiting for Elijah's response, Lucius walked away. Elijah, not being a fool, pondered the situation. Scarlett maintained a distance from both him and Lucius. Such a woman was indeed intriguing.

Who's She Flirting With?  

Sylvia was giving Scarlett the death glare, but Scarlett didn't seem bothered. The table went silent, and the atmosphere turned awkward in an instant.

Mia broke the silence, "After all this time, you still don't know who can't keep her mouth shut. Did I offend your buddy here?"

Sylvia's gaze was fixed on Scarlett. She snapped, "I wasn't talking to you."

Scarlett chimed in, "What she said is what I said."

Sylvia cracked a sarcastic smile, "Can't speak for yourself, need someone to do it for you?"

Scarlett realized that Sylvia was targeting her. She was sure she had never met this woman before. What could she have possibly done to offend her?

Everyone knows that when women argue, it's like a show – and everyone at the table couldn't help but watch. Especially since both Scarlett and Sylvia were no ordinary women, and they both had powerful connections. One would think they wouldn't let things escalate like this.
