Trillionaire they never noticed

Expose Scott!

Opening the door,Caroline was expecting to see Scott since they both planned earlier to hang out. But instead,she saw someone she has been trying to ignore lately,someone that has been getting on her nerves.

"Good morning,Caroline,did you sleep well?" Pedro greeted with a smile. "You look like you are about to head out,where are you going?" Pedro asked,noticing Caroline's clothes and make up.

"Non of your business." Caroline replied,annoyed by the question.

"You want me to drop you off?" Pedro ordered,pointing towards his shiny lamborghini.

"No thanks." Caroline turned him down.

"Anyways,is your dad home? I have something to discuss the whole family." Pedro voiced.

"Why? Did anything happen?" Caroline asked with a worried expression etched in her face.

"It's concerning Scott Carden." Pedro replied. "Can i come in?" Unable to wait for Caroline's reply,Pedro walked into the mansion.

Pedro walked into the living room and found the whole family sitting quietly and doing their own thing.

When Aunt Zaya spotted him,she shifted her gaze to Louis and Mrs Sjiela,giving them a mischievious smirk. Aunt Zaya could already guess why Pedro was here in their house.

Pedro did inform Aunt Zaya that he might have a way to prevent the wedding and kick Scott out of Caroline's life forever. But he refused to tell her what the plan is and would only inform her when the plan becomes a success.

Seeing Pedro right here in their house Aunt Zaya knew Pedro has succeeded in what he wanted to do.

"Greetings,Mr Fernando." Pedro greeted.

"Good morning,Pedro. What brought you here so early? Have a seat." Mr Fernando inquired,ushering Pedro to sit on the comfortable sofa.

Pedro sat down on the golden coloured sofa,grabbed a glass of scortch and gulped it.

"You said you have news concerning Scott?" Caroline asked hastily.

"Scott? What happened to him?" Mr Fernando questioned with a confused look.

"It appears Scott isn't who he claims." Pedro uttered. "Behind that innocent face,lies a chronic criminal."

"Hey,Watch how you talk to him!" Caroline shouted in anger after hearing Pedro's words.

"Relax,Caroline." Mr Fernando tried to calm his daughter down. "What made you jump to that conclusion,Pedro? You know it's wrong to accuse someone wrongly."

"This isn't a false accusation,sir. There was a witness and also proof to what i say." Pedro sounded with a confident look as he sips his scortch.

"Tell me,what happened?" Mr Fernando inquired.

"You remember that item that was suppose to be shipped to Itlay later today?" Pedro asked,taking a sip and stealing a glance at Aunt Zaya.

"Yes,The item that was suppose to be sold to Bonucci for 3 Billion Dollars?" Mr Fernando asked.

"Yes,that  item. When i got to the office this morning,i found out it was missing." Pedro explained and Mr Fernando's eyes widened in surprise. "So i called in all the staffs and began to question them. After so many investigations,i later found out the person who stole it was Scott Carden."

"What?!" Mr Fernando and Caroline exclaimed together after hearing Pedro's words,while the rest of the menbers couldn't help but smile mischieviously.

"That's a lie. Scott is not a thief. You are making it all up." Caroline spoke in disbelief.

"Well,tye item was found inside his locker and the survelliance camera recorded him going into my office when there was no one else there." Pedro voiced out.

"I knew it. I know this boy was a poser!" Louis sounded from where he sat. "We shouldn't have trusted him. He is a poor hungry bastard who would go extra mile just to feed himself!"

"That's how those riff raff's are. They try to sneak thier way into a wealthy family just to steal from them." Mrs Sheila blurted. "He should be sentenced to jail for this!"

Caroline stood there trying to digest the whole thing. She was still thinking whether Scott would be able to do such a thing knowing fully well they were about to get married.

"I can't believe what i am hearing. Caroline,how can you bring in a criminal into this house to wed?!" Mr Fernando shouted in anger.

"Let's not jump into conclusions." Caroline finally spoke up. "Scott might have a logical reason for doing this. Let's just invite him over and ask him."

"There is no logical reason to this. The poor rag is a thief!" Aunt Zaya voiced out.

"Yes,Only God knows what would have happened if he had married into this family without getting caught!" Mrs Shiela backed up Louis.

"Let's just hear him out!" Caroline sounded.

"What's the use? He would only deny everything claiming he's innocent just to escape the situation." Louis replied.

"Caroline,Call Scott and tell him to come over right now." Mr Fernando ordered,causing everyone to keep quiet. Mr Fernando wasn't the type of person who only listens to one side of the story and judge based on what he heard. He liked to listen from both ends then decide the way forward.

Caroline took out her phone and dialed Scott's number. "Hello,my dad asked you to come over. It's important."

***

Scott already knew why he was being called by Mr Fernando. He guessed that Pedro must have gone to their house to inform them about the incident that happened earlier.

Scott knew once he tells Mr Fernando everything,the marriage would be over. There was nothing Scott could do since every single evidence was pointing towards him.

It was obvious that Pedro planted the bag inside his locker just to frame him and make him look like a bad person infront of the family. But there was nothing he could use to prove himself. If only he had enough time to dig out a concrete evidence that would make them believe him.

  Scott finally arrived in the mansion and walked into the living room and saw the whole family waiting for him with hateful glares.
