Chapter 327 - Second Chance

"What do you mean?" Scarlette asked her friend Nicholas. "You can\'t access her computer anymore? I thought she trusted you?"

"Trusted." The man in front of her was someone without morals, principles. He would do everything for money and that\'s why Scarlette liked to work with him. "That\'s the keyword."

"After years of being friends she finally suspected you?"

"She didn\'t suspect me." Nicholas snorted. "I am good at my job Scarlette. But apparently, she didn\'t trust me enough to give me the encryption of her laptop and hard drive."

"And you can\'t hack it?"

"Cant. If I was as smart as her, I would have graduated college a long time ago."

"I am paying you to get close to her!"

"We are close."

"But still not together!"

"Don\'t you understand how hard it is to fake it around that woman?" Nicholas growled, the irritation in his eyes made her froze. "She is smarter than you and I. Smarter than anyone else. And she grew up in the streets. She isn\'t naive and she wasn\'t living in her bubble. One mistake and she would know."

Who would have thought that Amanda would be very hard to deal with? Scarlette gritted her teeth. Over the years, she developed connections and sent a lot of people to deal with that woman. She had sent a woman to try and get close to her, a man to try and woe her, even relatives! She had manipulated people just so they could influence Amanda\'s decision.

And she succeeded.

The future changed.

Amanda and Grant didn\'t meet and fell in love.

She thought she could now easily dispose of the woman. Framing her should be easy.

But Amanda was so smart, she couldn\'t do anything against her. And while this irritated her, Scarlette felt helpless as she didn\'t want Amanda to notice that all the bad luck in her life was orchestrated by Scarlette and her schemes. "What about the program?" she asked.

"I don\'t know. She\'s very secretive about it, says it was a surprise."

Scarlette looked at her half empty coffee as she recalled the article that she read about Grant Rouse and Amanda Rouse. It was their love story and everything that they did to build their empire. On that article, they didn\'t say anything about the softwares and programs that they created. However, it was mentioned that Amanda created something that Grant polished. This software changed the tech world.

However, she could no longer remember what it was.

At that time, she felt jealous and sad. She wanted what Amanda had. She wanted to be successful, featured in a magazine and praised by everyone. What she had in that lifetime was a deadbeat husband who goes home drunk and beat her every day. It was horrible. It was a life that she didn\'t want.

She was given a second chance to change everything and she would do everything to have the life that she wanted.

This time, Scarlette wouldn\'t hesitate to change the future to be happy.

"Did she mention anything?"

"Nada." Nicholas said. "No idea what she was working on."

While Nicholas was a computer science major too, he wasn\'t really as knowledgeable as Grant or Amanda. Scarlette even suspected that this man just chose to study the course because his uncle was a teacher in that department. In short, she couldn\'t trust him to tackle difficult things when it comes to programming.

Nicholas looked around. "Why\'d you want to see me here? I thought no seeing each other in public?"

"I want you to bring me inside your school."

"Not possible."

"What?"

"Even if you pay me, it\'s not possible. The school have some powerful people inside right now. The security is tight don\'t want to risk it."

"You— You didn\'t want to— I will double your pay."

"You don\'t understand." Nicholas lean back, irritation flashing in his eyes. "She is starting to investigate me. I think."

"Amanda?"

"Yes. She developed something to catch the one ruining the wires. I was able to dodge the bullet because we were friends. I don\'t want her to suspect anything. If they knew it was me… they would expel me."

Scarlette rolled her eyes. "Can\'t you— "

"No is no."

"But— "

"Don\'t you have friends inside the school? Aren\'t you friends with someone up there?"

Scarlette didn\'t say anything. For some reason, her instincts had been telling her that something is wrong. She had been twitchy all morning and she couldn\'t figure out what is going on.

"You look tense." Nicholas leaned forward. "Need my help to relax?" He cocked an eyebrow, a sinister smirk apparent on his handsome face. If Nicholas wasn\'t so good at his job, Scarlette would have killed him a long time ago. However, this man was the only person who got close to Amanda.

"I\'ve been jumpy all morning. I feel like something is going on with Amanda."

"Hm? I think you are too sensitive. Amanda is smart but she wouldn\'t know anything about you. She wouldn\'t remember the child that she bullied when she was five."

That was the reason that Scarlette used to fool Nicholas. She told him that Amanda bullied her when she was younger and she just wanted her to suffer a bit. She didn\'t really want to physically harm her, only make things difficult for her. And this fool of a Nicholas believed her.

"I don\'t know." Scarlette sighed. For some reason, Grant had been very busy lately. He even stopped calling Hui and the others. If he stopped answering her calls, she would have thought that he was simply avoiding her. However, he told everyone that he would be very busy because his sister asked him to do something for their company.

And Scarlette didn\'t like that.

She didn\'t like that an unknown entity, something that the article didn\'t mention suddenly arrived and is doing something to Grant.

Sienna Rouse.

This unknown woman\'s appearance seemed to change Grant in every way.

Sadly for Scarlette, no matter how much she thought about the past. She couldn\'t remember anyone with that name.
