They underestimated her

It is none other than Scarlett, Allen's special secretary.

The wine Scarlett is holding, spilled out, messing both their clothes. With that, the silence engulfed the venue. Most of the eyes are on Anna and Scarlett now.

They are of the same height, in fact Anna is one inches taller than Scarlett, but because of Scarlett's high heels, Anna looked an inch shorter than her.

Their aura and demeanor must be similar and to be precise, Scarlett is a bit less intimidating and impressive compared to Anna.

However, Anna is now low key and is concealing her real aura. So, Scarlett looked far more formidable and superior to Anna who looked ordinary and bashful.

Many people here know Scarlett Evergreen. They know how ruthless and intimidating she is.

As she is one the people at the peak of global Pharma and the other companies that come under Keller holdings, most of the people have met her at least once.

Even if they haven't met her, they have heard about her and her other two sisters. They are called legendary triplets of the business world in Country M.

The people of the Keller family are always busy and it is said that they chose other fields as their careers instead of business.

Yet, they are at the top of the food chain in country M. It is because they have capable people working for them. These triplets have a significant role in it.

And, the triplets are rumored to have unique and eccentric personalities. But they are extremely good at what they do and are valued by the Keller family.

So, everyone respects and admires them. They have risen to the peaks with nothing but their hard work and intellect.

In three of them, Scarlett is not only the powerful and influential one but also eccentric and short tempered.

"I am sorry!" Anna apologized to Scarlett. Surprisingly, she didn't sound panicked and had a cool demeanor which shocked the people.

Scarlett's aura is so overwhelming that it can crack many people's composure.

Everyone was looking at them as if this was some interesting movie clip. Everyone who knows Scarlett knows that she hates these kinds of disturbances.

As told, she is eccentric. She hates when her clothes get wet. She hates when strangers touch her. She could only go till handshakes and it is rumored that she had to go through a lot of training just to do that as it is necessary for a business woman like her.

"Help me. Help me to clean my clothes.", that is what Scarlett said, shocking the people who know her.

'She might be in a good mood,' some people thought.

'She might take care of this measly secretary in private' some other people thought.

Keller holdings are in almost many countries and they have collaborations with all the top countries. So, they have closely interacted with Scarlett as she often accompanies Allen and his brother to foriegn meetings.

Some have seen her eccentric nature and weird habits. So, they know what this would lead to.

It is rumored that the Keller family has deep roots in the dark world as well. So, the consequences are unpredictable.

Meanwhile, Anna raised a brow but quietly started following Scarlett upstairs.

Kyle gave her a worried look but Anna just blinked at him before taking the stairs.

Kyle could only look at Allen with pleading eyes.

He has read about Scarlett in the file Aiden gave him.

Aiden has told him that he should also know about Allen and the people who accompanied him. So, he has been giving some information daily to Kyle to go through and that is how he got to know about Scarlett and her sisters.

"Don't worry. Scarlett is a reasonable person. Ms. Lopez(Anna) will just help my scretretary to clean her outfit." Allen told Kyle with a kind smile before standing up and walking towards someone.

'Reasonable?' people who know Scarlett thought.

"It was a mistake." Scarlett apologized to the woman who was looking at her with a brow raised.

"And, you expect me to believe that?" Anna asked with a smirk.

"It is! More than anyone, you know how much I cherish my reputation and appearance. Why will I humiliate myself like that in front of others?" Scarlett asked, her voice a bit meek and coquettish.

"You tell me why." Anna said not at all helping Scarlett to clean her dress.

"There is nothing to tell, Annie. I just didn't think you would turn around abruptly. I thought -" before Scarlett could finish her sentence, Anna interjected her.

"This incident is pre-planned. You are trying to distract me from something that is going on now." Anna said, standing up walking towards Scarlett.

"And, you are not Scarlett. You are Stella (Scarlett's youngest sister and Alenn's personal secretary)." shocking Stella who is now acting like Scarlett.

"Did you think I can't recognise you just because you are identical and are a pro in imitating your sisters?" she asked, raising Stella's chin with her index finger to take a good look at her face.

"I…" before Stella could say anything, Anna let her go and sat down on the sofa.

"What is happening? I clearly 'requested' everyone not to follow me here to Country A. I said I would return after I am done with Danvers' family." Anna said.

"Allen followed me here. I thought he is here because Aiden is here and that makes him restless."

"Then Brianna and Clinton arrived here. Brianna never leaves country M. Her family never risks it. Speaking of Clinton, that guy barely has free time to chill. But here he is, 'chilling out'"

"I didn't say anything. I thought they were here to placate me for what Alan did. After all Brianna and Clinton are my close friends and I love their company."

"Not long after that you three (Triplets) arrived here." saying that, Anna crossed her legs and tapped her fingers on the arm rest.

Her aura has suddenly become so suppressive and chilly that Stella had to gulp.

"I am sorry. You guys haven't arrived a couple of days back. You guys arrived here long back." Anna said, shocking Stella.

"I wonder what you three did these days. Good job trying to distract me." Anna whispered in Stella's ear.

"Change your dress and go down." saying that Anna left the room.
