Lingering Doting Marriage: Big Boss, Little Sweet Heart

Chapter 1251: Chapter 1251: Scarlett Is Settled in! Chapter 1251: Chapter 1251: Scarlett Is Settled in! “Proceed legally, but keep it low-key.”

Proceed legally, but keep it low-key? Scott Harris wasn’t stupid; his mind clicked, and he understood her meaning.

It meant that Scarlett was set to be in prison, but it would not be publicized in the media. How the royal family would cover up the scandal was not their concern, they merely wouldn’t inform the media.

“The Duke of Habsden…”

As if knowing what he was about to ask, Enna Clark interrupted him before he could finish, “Little Uncle and Prince Willie are discussing business matters.”

Prince Willie hoped that the Habsden Family would not suspend trade with Country W, but on this matter, Little Uncle was exceptionally firm. No one knew what the outcome of their negotiations would be. Anyway, Enna was not worried about Edward Jackson being at a disadvantage because she knew her Uncle’s capabilities!

The only concern Scott Harris had also dissipated. He, seeming even more anxious than Enna, let out a long sigh of relief, his usually expressionless face showing a look of joy, “Everything has finally been resolved satisfactorily; it’s only been 5 days, and there are still 25 days left before the deadline set by the Old Lord. The Young Master and the Miss will surely be delighted.”

Especially the Young Master, who was definitely the happiest of all.

Enna Clark’s eyes and brows also relaxed as she rubbed her stiff cheeks, saying, “I’m afraid it’s not that quick, I still have some follow-up matters to deal with. Only when everything is dealt with will it be resolved.”

“Right, about this incident, Baron Lawrence doesn’t know, does he?” She suddenly remembered and asked.

The question made Scott Harris pause, realizing that from the time he got in touch with Enna until now, he had forgotten to report to the Baron that Ms. Clark was safe and sound.

Not until Enna brought it up did he remember the Baron…

Scott Harris tensed up, annoyance flashing across his face as he quickly said, “The Baron… The Baron… is already aware of the risk you took, Ms. Clark.”

“Baron Lawrence knows?!” Enna imagined the man’s reaction when he found out what she had done, and she felt horrible.

“This is what happened: after your ‘car accident’, the Baron made a call to you, which you didn’t answer. So he called me…” He paused, looking guiltily at Enna, “I tried to help Ms. Clark keep it a secret, but the Baron found out anyway. I’m sorry, Ms. Clark.”

Enna could imagine the pressuring questions and angry roars when he took the call.

It was normal for Scott Harris to be unable to withstand it.

If it had been her, she might not have been able to withstand the man’s domineering questioning either.

However, the fact that Baron Lawrence knew meant… she was finished.

With his temperament, he was surely angry. Once he returned to the country, he would definitely settle scores with her. By then, she would most likely be tormented terribly.

Enna Clark felt a particularly sharp pain in her head, which also made the wound on her left leg start to hurt. She forced a smile, her smile lacking strength, “It’s okay, I’ll call him later to explain.”

However, whether Baron Lawrence would listen to her explanation was hard to say.

She guessed that if she called him, it would just be a barrage of shouting.

Just then, Scott Harris hesitated a moment before speaking in a puzzled voice, “Before I got in touch with Ms. Clark, the Baron had called me four or five times, and then he stopped calling.”

Enna instinctively looked at him, waiting for him to continue.

Sure enough, Scott Harris continued, “During the last call, I thought I heard gunshot sounds from the Baron’s side. I don’t know if I heard wrong, but it did sound very much like gunshots.”
