After Divorce I Married a Tycoon-Chapter 194: Scarlett Jewel’s Past Is Exposed
Felix Sinclair barely managed to restrain the urge to smash the television.
It took all of his strength to calm himself down even a little.
His gaze darkened as he continued to stare at the television, wanting to see how things would ultimately unfold.
He watched as Scarlett Jewel and Joel Jennings were still on stage, tearing into each other and trying to shift the blame...
The scene was like two mad dogs barking wildly at each other.
Watching this, Felix Sinclair felt as if Scarlett Jewel had slapped his face from across the screen, the humiliation so immense it could have filled the Pacific Ocean. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
But what was even more humiliating was when Claire Mercer publicly pointed out that Scarlett Jewel had stolen her design sketchbook and plagiarized her work.
Felix Sinclair and Rose Gable were once again completely stunned.
Neither of them had yet recovered from the shock of Scarlett Jewel instigating Joel Jennings to slander Claire Mercer.
And now, Claire Mercer had exposed Scarlett Jewel for plagiarizing her designs.
The reversal of events happened so fast, it caught Felix Sinclair and Rose Gable completely off guard.
Rose Gable stared blankly at the television and exclaimed, "What in the world is going on?"
"One minute, they’re saying Scarlett Jewel put that... what’s-his-name, Joel Jennings, up to slandering Claire Mercer."
"The next, Claire Mercer is exposing her for plagiarism..."
The situation was so chaotic; Rose Gable felt her mind couldn’t keep up with the pace of it all.
Felix Sinclair, however, just pressed his lips into a thin line, his eyes fixed intently on Scarlett Jewel on the screen.
The atmosphere in the living room instantly grew incredibly tense.
The family waited for the judges’ final verdict.
Soon, after the judges confirmed that Scarlett Jewel had plagiarized Claire Mercer’s design, Felix Sinclair could no longer hold back.
He shot to his feet, grabbed the ashtray from the coffee table, and hurled it violently at the television.
The television screen caved in with a large dent.
The expensive crystal ashtray fell to the floor and shattered into a million pieces.
Rose Gable jumped at his action. She looked timidly at Felix Sinclair, not daring to breathe too loudly.
His chest heaved continuously as boundless rage churned within him.
Veins popped on Felix Sinclair’s forehead, and he ground his molars together so hard they creaked.
He was clearly at the apex of his rage, so furious he could barely breathe.
"That imbecile, Scarlett Jewel," he forced the words through his clenched teeth.
Long before Scarlett Jewel even entered the competition, he had warned her not to do anything that would damage the Sinclair family’s reputation.
But now, at the live finals, she had created this ugly scandal of ordering someone to frame another for plagiarism.
If it were just family watching this scene, it might have been bearable.
The problem was, he had just been bragging about Scarlett Jewel to some of his business partners and industry friends.
He’d said that while his daughter-in-law didn’t come from a good background, she made up for it with her talent.
Some business managers who wanted to partner with the Sinclair Family had been endlessly flattering Scarlett Jewel.
They’d even said they would definitely watch the live broadcast of the finals to support the Sinclair family’s Mrs. Sterling.
And now, what did everyone see?
They didn’t see Scarlett Jewel making it into the top three through her own talent, bringing honor to the Sinclair family.
Instead, everyone saw Scarlett Jewel ordering Joel Jennings to frame Claire Mercer for plagiarism.
And if that wasn’t enough, it turned out she was the one who had actually plagiarized Claire Mercer.
The entire country had witnessed this humiliating affair.
’How am I ever going to show my face in public again?’
’Especially in front of the second branch, how could he hold his head high?’
He had been so smug in front of them before.
He had praised Scarlett Jewel, both overtly and subtly, for being so talented.
’But now?’
’If the second branch found out that Scarlett Jewel had not only plagiarized Claire Mercer but had also framed Claire for plagiarism...’
’There was no telling how they would mock him.’
At that thought, Felix Sinclair once again picked up a vase from the living room.
He violently smashed it against the already damaged but not yet completely shattered television screen.
This time, the screen shattered, and the vase broke into pieces all over the floor.
Felix Sinclair couldn’t stand to look at Scarlett Jewel’s utterly hideous face any longer.
After smashing the television to bits, he stood up and stormed out in a fury.
Only after Felix Sinclair left did Rose Gable finally let loose, cursing Scarlett Jewel at the top of her lungs.
Scarlett Jewel’s ridiculous antics had almost given her a brain hemorrhage from sheer anger.
"Is there something wrong with that little bitch Scarlett Jewel’s brain? Huh?"
"She plagiarized Claire Mercer, and then she ordered Joel Jennings to frame Claire for plagiarism..."
"What in the world was she thinking? Is she insane?"
Rose Gable’s face was beet-red with fury, and her head throbbed so hard it felt like it was about to split open.
"What kind of rotten luck did the Sinclair family have? Huh? What is this thing we married into the family?"
"Ever since the Sinclair family got involved with that woman, nothing has gone right."
"The scandals just get bigger and bigger, and the Sinclair family’s humiliation grows with each one..."
"That woman is a walking disaster, an absolute jinx!"
By the end, Rose Gable was practically roaring.
She felt so angry she could hardly breathe.
Seeing her own son sitting silently on the sofa, she felt a pang of fury so sharp it was like a heart attack.
"Gavin Sinclair, this is the woman you just had to have an affair with."
"No matter what you say about Claire Mercer, at least she was a decent person who would never cause this kind of humiliating trouble."
"But this Scarlett Jewel? Look at what she’s done."
"Enough," Gavin Sinclair growled at her.
He was already seething with rage over the mess Scarlett Jewel had made.
He blamed himself for having been blinded, for letting Scarlett Jewel bewitch him.
Now, being blamed by his own mother was just adding fuel to the fire.
The rage in his chest was completely uncontrollable, threatening to consume his sanity.
However, compared to the plagiarism and the false accusation against Claire Mercer, the scandals about Scarlett Jewel that were later exposed online made her current actions seem like mere child’s play.
It could even be said that it wasn’t worth mentioning.
Scarlett Jewel’s sordid past, which she had tried so hard to hide, was exposed by an unknown source.
It instantly blew up the trending topics, spreading at the speed of light.
Her past antics once again left everyone speechless.
And when Gavin Sinclair saw these revelations about Scarlett Jewel, he was so furious he felt like killing her.
He truly never imagined that this woman could be so disgusting.
He had already thought her plagiarism was shameless enough.
But compared to the rotten things she had done in her past, this was just the tip of the iceberg.
