The Transmigration Antagonist

Chapter 40: At Least Better Than You

Upon entering the house, Scarlett saw her stepmother with her friends. Some of them were the wives of his father's business friends. Once a week they will have a meeting. I don't know what they're talking about. Which Scarlett knows they're just gossiping about and showing off.

"Scarlett, you're getting pretty" said a woman wearing a yellow highlighter and jewelry attached to her body. Yes, they certainly wear luxury items considering they are the wives of wealthy businessmen. Except Mia, her stepmother. The woman still looks fashionable despite not wearing many expensive accessories on her body.

"Thank you for Aunt's praise," Scarlett replied a little lazily.

"Scarlett is indeed prettier than Elyzia," the other chimps made Scarlett slightly taller. He likes to be praised. Not just him, almost everyone likes to be praised. "I want to make him my son-in-law" he continued.

"I don't think any man would want to be with her after knowing her true self" another woman said.

"I think Elyzia is more beautiful than she is. Elyzia has a better attitude than him" a woman argued with her menor appearance according to Scarlett. The clothes she was wearing were not even appropriate for her age.

"Yes, you're right. Her face is beautiful. But his nature is bad. Even she didn't treat her mother well just because of her stepmother" another woman insinuated Scarlett.

"I'd rather Elyzia be my daughter-in-law. Unfortunately I don't have a son,"

Scarlett clenched her mouth, restraining her anger. Clenched both of his hands. Who wants to be their daughter-in-law. Scarlett would even have to think a thousand times if getting in-laws like them. They only judge it from the outside. No one knows the real him. Scarlett's just being bad at home. That was before. Now it's not since Gilda's soul entered Scarlett's body. He's never made his family name bad out there before. With her gaze met with Mia, Scarlett was sure her stepmother was saying bad things about herself to her friends.

"You're right. But at least I'm better than you. Outside good even if inside bad. But you guys, inside and out are both bad" Scarlett said, boasting Mia's friends who had insulted Scarlett were wide-eyed and angry.

"You should have used your old age to correct your previous vices. At least do well before the end to pick you up. Who knows, God will consider that you will not go to hell. But in retrospect it's impossible anyway," Scarlett sneered.

"Bad. What do you mean, huh?"

"Mia, your stepdaughter does not know manners,"

"Just ignore him. Serving him will only prove his words are true" Mia said. His words actually contained an implied meaning.

"I heard there's a new piece of jewelry from Cartier. The number is also limited," Mia immediately made the socialite mothers ignore Scarlett. They were more interested in Mia's words.

"I want to buy it before it runs out. I don't want to miss."

"Yes, so am I."

"Based on hypocritical women. In public they look good, but actually it's just a mask. They are actually like this. All they knew was spending her husband's money too" Scarlett murmured her feet toward her room. Not that Scarlett said all of her stepmother's friends were bad, just that most of them were bad.
