Chapter 243 The Return of Reba

“At the very least, she should’ve given me a fate reading like I’m the true son of destiny.”

Scarlett muttered, “What a waste you’re not doing storytelling for a living.”

Jack patted his chest. “Just wait. You’re gonna be so jealous of me in a minute.”

She nced at the man standing beside them, as calm andposed as ever. “Mr. Fletcher, is he…

She pointed to her own head.

“A little…”

“Yeah.” Jasper nodded, gave a quick nce toward the entrance, then turned back to her. “T made–it’s already been delivered to the old estate.”

Scarlett gave an embarrassed smile.

“I bet it stirred up quite the buzz.b” /b

Jasper looked at the mischief in her expression–that ssic I iknow /iI istirred /iithe /ipot iand /iiI /iilove /iit kind of look- and his lips curled into a faint smile.

“Yeah.”

His Adam’s apple moved as if he wanted to say something more.

But just then-

There was a suddenmotion at the door.

A familiar voice rang out.

“You should go get that checked at a hospital.”

Scarlett froze..

Her body moved faster than her mind.

She turned sharply toward the entrance.

The person who had just spoken was wearing a simple white linen dress, her long hair loosely tied behind her head.

Her forehead was bare, and her eyes cool, almost indifferent–stood out.

There wasn’t much expression on her faceb. /b

But the entrance had already been packed with people rushing over the moment the news broke.

And the moment Scarlett saw that face-

But Jasper’s hand suddenlynded firmly on her shoulder, stopping her.

Only then did she snap out of it.

“Wasn’t Reba supposed to be…”

She didn’t finish the sentence before realizing something.

She had tried asking Officer Xu about it before, but never got a reply.

She quickly pulled out her phone and activated her “Dreamweaver” credentials to investigate Colt’s current situation.

Reba was out, which meant someone had cleared her name.

But what would that mean for Colt, the one who arrested her?

She immediately messaged Sophia–there were too many people around ito /idiscuss it openly.

Sophia frowned when she saw the message.

But she was experienced and kept her emotions in check.

“Let’s wait and see.”

Jasper gave Scarlett a light pat on the shoulder and stepped forward to stand beside her.

“A skilled hunter knows how to win big by risking small.”

Scarlett clenched her jaw.

Only then did she manage to push the anger back down.

She had worked so hard to gather evidence. Colt had risked everything to bring that witness back.

That’s how they finally got Reba locked up.

And now she was free?

How could she not hate thisb? /b

And more than that-

Her reunion with the Lane family was no secret.

Anyone helping Reba would’ve had to consider the Lane family’s power before acting.

Yet someone not only helped–they gave Reba a new identity and paraded her right in front of bScarlett/b, like nothing had happened.

How could she possibly let that slide?

Chapter 243 The Return of Reba

“Just like

you did at the Kramer family.”

Only then did Scarlett’s emotions begin to settle.

She had been able to handle things smoothly at the Kramer family because she’d been an outsider.

She saw everything clearly, yed her cards well, and walked away clean.

But with Reba, it was different.

She took a deep breath.

Finally able to calm down.

Her mind began working again.

“If she’s out, then someone’s provoking the Lane family. They want us to fall apart from the inside.”

Jasper tilted his head slightly to nce at her.

She’d alreadye this far. That was enough.

Up near the entrance, another wave ofmotion erupted.

That woman whose uterus had supposedly been predicted as problematic? She was rushing off to the hospital now.

Everyone was chattering.

“A woman looking for her long–lost son found her. She said the son had been missing for thirty years and is now in some southern town–and even gave the address. The olddy broke down crying on the spot!”

“I heard that too! And that she can tell your fate just from your face–predict your love life, your future— she’s scarily urate!”

“Yeah right. These frauds are getting trickier by the day. She probably nted an actor.”

Voices rose and fell in waves.

Some people were curious, some skeptical, some full of hope–all their gazes fixed on that quiet figure standing calmly by the door.

“Alright, alright! Settle down!”

A middle–aged man in a suit stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Reba.
