Chapter 346
Scarlett Yates no longer had any interest in arguing with her.
She continued to silently watch Alice Green, meeting her icy and resentment-filled gaze.
The less she spoke, the more furious Alice Green seemed, gritting her teeth, “Why aren’t you talking? I guessed your thoughts correctly, and now you’re guilty, too scared to speak p>
Scarlett Yates couldn’t help but laugh.
Alice Green’s eyes burned with anger, “What are you laughing at p>
“Alice Green, let’s go our separate ways.” Scarlett Yates initially agreed to let her come along because she seemed terribly afraid, and she felt soft-hearted.
Having sympathy for a woman who hates you to the bone is an extremely foolish thing.
She had already made a mistake once and could not repeat it.
Not looking at the sudden surprise and panic on Alice Green’s face, she took out half of the food from the bag and placed it on the ground where Alice was crouching.
“Scarlett Yates, what, what do you mean?” Alice Green stared blankly at the food in front of her, then looked up at Scarlett Yates, eyes flustered.
Scarlett Yates packed up her share of food, casually pointed in a direction, and said calmly, “From now on, don’t follow me p>
With that said, she turned to leave.
“Scarlett Yates, you, you stop!” Alice Green panicked, hurriedly stood up from the ground.
“You just promised we’d stay together p>
“That was then, this is now.” Scarlett Yates looked at her coldly, “I’ve changed my mind p>
Alice Green bit her lip, her brows furrowed, “You’re going to go alone p>
“That’s right p>
“We’re the only two people on the island p>
“I know p>
“It’s going to be dark soon, aren’t you afraid p>
“Not afraid p>
With each question answered, Alice Green’s face grew a shade darker.
Scarlett Yates looked at her expressionlessly, “Alice Green, you won’t stubbornly follow me later, will you? If you admit you’re really scared and need me to keep you company, and then beg me sincerely, maybe I’ll change my mind p>
“Beg you? In your dreams p>
As she expected, Alice Green immediately rejected her, coldly laughing through clenched teeth, “Scarlett Yates, in this lifetime, I’ll never beg you, don’t even think about making me bow before you p>
“Alright then.” Scarlett Yates suddenly smiled, tilted her head, nodding, “Then let’s part ways here. With Miss Green’s strong self-esteem and pride, who needs company, right p>
Stirred by Scarlett’s words, Alice Green, though scared inside, let anger take over, raised her chin defiantly, and said coldly, “That’s right, I don’t need anyone with me. Let’s separate, but don’t regret it later p>
Scarlett Yates smiled sarcastically, “Of course I won’t regret it, I’m afraid it’ll be you who regrets it, Miss Green p>
“We’ll see who ends up begging whom p>
“Alright then, let’s wait and see p>
Scarlett Yates finished speaking, turned around, and walked away, heading in the opposite direction from Alice Green.
“Scarlett Yates, you’ll eventually come begging to me, I’ll wait for you to beg!” Alice Green angrily grabbed sand from the ground and threw it towards Scarlett Yates’ distant back, as if that wasn’t enough to vent her anger, she shouted at her retreating figure twice more.
Scarlett Yates’s footsteps never stopped.
She kept walking, kept walking, until she once again entered that forest.
