Chapter 6: Don't want to believe

Scott couldn't help but smirk a bit and then said, "I came here because of that. Aboli and I can sign the divorce papers right now. Would that satisfy you?"

After saying that, he glanced at Mrs. Campbell and Brando standing at a distance. 

In an instant, Mrs. Campbell's face showed anger. Aboli bit her lip slightly, bowed her head, and Brando furrowed his brow, feeling that what Scott said was not entirely wrong.

It's best for the two of them to divorce so that he can marry Aboli quickly.

Aboli tightened her lips due to the difficulty, then suddenly felt a bit of pain. 

She looked at Scott, seemingly somewhat sad, and said, "Scott, you've changed. You weren't like this before. You feel so distant now..."

Indeed, Scott used to truly love her, always pampering her. 

How could he say such hurtful words now?

Scott rolled his eyes at Aboli, his dark eyes devoid of any emotion, and without paying much attention, he said, "Anyway, we're about to divorce. Do you still think we have something called a relationship? Should I still pamper you as I did before I was kicked out of this house? When I was kicked out, you didn't even speak up."

In fact, Scott didn't care much about being kicked out of the Campbell house. 

What he cared about was Aboli's attitude.

From that day on, the fragile relationship built on Scott's trust in Aboli, thanks to Mr. Brian's efforts for her, began to crumble.

He would help her, but he wouldn't love her anymore.

Feeling Scott's indifference, Aboli couldn't help but frown, though there was a slight pain in her heart. 

Suddenly, she pursed her lips and said, "But have you harassed my younger sister? Do you still feel you're in the right?"

Hearing that, Scott couldn't help but furrow his brows. 

This was truly the most absurd incident in his life. 

That's why people often say that love can make you blind.

Aboli's younger sister, Elly, had falsely accused him, and despite Scott's restraint and lack of evidence against him, Aboli, influenced by Elly's appearance and Mrs. Campbell's words, refused to listen to his explanation. 

She even supported others in kicking him out of the house.

In reality, Scott knew that Aboli probably wasn't unwilling to think but rather just lazy to think.

Perhaps at that time, she desperately needed a reason to push him away.

At this moment, Aboli spoke again with a tone of sorrow, "I had to do a lot to compensate for Elly so that she didn't sue you and you wouldn't be sent to jail! Do you still feel like you're innocent?"

Scott's deep gaze looked at Aboli. 

At this moment, he deeply doubted Mr. Brian's judgment in choosing Aboli as the heir. 

A girl with capability but too naive and placing too much emphasis on family relationships to the point of being deceived.

Was she really suitable for the position of the heir?

No wonder, after more than a year, she still couldn't fully take control of her position as the heir, and even James had suppressed her. 

The Campbell conglomerate was on the verge of collapse in the market.

Scott remained silent for a moment. 

Finally, he nodded and said, "Alright, I will help you with this, just once. After everything is settled, I hope Aboli can sign the divorce papers."

Pausing for a moment, as if thinking of something, he spoke in a low voice, "I also hope that Aboli can return the engagement necklace I gave her as a pre-divorce agreement before we sign the papers."

Aboli startled for a moment and hastily replied, "I will find it."

Clearly, she didn't attach much importance to that necklace and probably didn't even remember where she had left it.

Scott looked deeply at Aboli for a moment and said nothing more. He just stood up, showing no intention to stay longer. 

Everything and everyone here made him uncomfortable.

James and Mrs. Campbell achieved their goal, so they didn't pay attention to Scott leaving.

Aboli, seeing Scott decisively leaving, couldn't help but furrow her brows, her eyes fixed on his departing figure, feeling a bit uncomfortable.

"Send someone to pick me up at the gate of Aboli Campbell's house right now," Scott said. 

On the other end, Walter quickly responded and sent someone to pick up Scott.

It seemed like Scott wasn't in a good mood when listening to the sound. 

Walter didn't want any delay that might make Scott uncomfortable.

Scott walked out of the gate, and at this point, Aboli, Mrs. Campbell, James, and even Brando had also come out.

James was preparing to return to his mansion and, at the same time, seeing Brando off. 

Brando was the grandson of one of the three leading families in the city. 

Pursuing Aboli having James accompany him, was a clear demonstration.

Mrs. Campbell and Aboli were naturally preparing to have lunch with Brando, as they had mentioned earlier.

Brando slowly walked towards his BMW, opened the car door, and smiled, saying, "Uncle James, if you don't mind, I can give you a ride."

Upon hearing this, James immediately smiled. 

Just as the four of them were chatting happily and subtly teasing Scott with a few words, suddenly, a brand-new limited edition Maybach, which had just been released a few days ago, rolled up in front of their gate.

The group couldn't help but be astonished at this sight. 

With the wealth of those present, they surely could never own a car like this!

Brando remembered vividly that his cousin, the son of his uncle, had cried to have this car, but his uncle didn't allow it. 

Brando knew it wasn't because his uncle didn't want to buy it. 

It was simply that, with their status, they couldn't splurge to the extent of bidding for a globally limited edition car! 

Moreover, some things required not just money but also power and reputation.

Under the admiring, envious, or astonished gazes of everyone, a security guard in black descended to open the car door for Scott. 

Scott didn't even glance at them and went straight into the car.

The door closed in front of the onlookers, and the car smoothly rolled away, leaving an atmosphere of strange silence behind.

At this moment, Brando's forced laughter suddenly broke the awkward atmosphere, "Ha ha ha, surely Scott secretly used his boss's car, trying to show off in front of us? It's really amusing, ha ha ha."

To be honest, his laughter sounded quite forced. 

The mood of the others became even more complicated.

They sincerely hoped that Scott was just secretly using his boss's car at ProTrade Capital and not someone with a special identity within the company.

At this moment, Brando suddenly spoke again, "Come to think of it, my uncle is about to collaborate with ProTrade Capital. By then, I can ask my uncle to confirm Scott's position. Surely, Scott is just a small fry at ProTrade Capital."

Hearing this, the others suddenly woke up, quickly smiling and flattering, hoping to seize this opportunity to enhance their chances of cooperation with ProTrade Capital.

Brando enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded. 

He glanced at Aboli on the side, a glint of light in his eyes, confidently holding everything in his hands.
