Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 549: The Battle Between the White Lotus and Song Green Tea (Part 5)
Roxanne Sutton’s foot froze on the spot as she stepped out.
Thinking for a moment, she said, "I have an urgent matter to attend to, so I won’t disturb you all anymore."
Catherine Blanchett sneered and stood up from her seat.
Walking up to Roxanne Sutton.
"What? The show hasn’t even started, and you’re going to leave, the main act?"
She didn’t hide her intentions, stating them outright.
"You!..."
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell everyone about this?!"
Roxanne Sutton responded.
Catherine Blanchett smirked disdainfully, glancing at those behind her. "As long as the people here don’t speak, who will believe your side of the story?"
Catherine had planned this clearly from the start.
These socialites would definitely not speak out, because if they did, they’d be accused of watching idly.
So, it’s better to enjoy the drama.
Roxanne Sutton was fuming, but fortunately, she had some other preparations...
Roxanne was calculating in her mind.
After speaking, Catherine Blanchett stepped back a few steps and waved slightly.
Two Filipino maids waiting at the side instantly stepped up, each grabbing one of Roxanne Sutton’s arms.
"You... What are you doing?!"
A flicker of panic flashed in Roxanne Sutton’s eyes.
Catherine Blanchett ignored her and turned slightly, addressing the socialites, "How about we go over there?"
She then ordered the two Filipino maids to carry Roxanne Sutton towards the pool.
The socialites overheard Catherine Blanchett and watched her head towards the pool.
They became intrigued and followed along.
Rosalind Blanchett also stood up and, before leaving, said to Selena Kensington and Vivian Sutton, "How about we go watch the show too?"
Vivian Sutton glanced at Selena Kensington, seeing her stand up, Vivian followed suit.
She came over and linked arms with Selena Kensington, whispering, "Catherine has no originality, always doing a dunking."
Selena’s lips curled slightly, "But this time, it’s her making someone fall, not her."
Last time Catherine set it up to frame Selena, deliberately making herself fall.
But facing Roxanne Sutton, she doesn’t need to hide her intentions.
However...
Selena glanced toward the woods outside the manor, stopping her steps.
There seemed to be a flash of light in the distance.
She whispered a few words to Hope Norwood.
Hope nodded, then left Selena’s side.
Vivian watched their interaction, feeling curious.
She asked, "What did you say to Hope? Why did she leave?"
Selena didn’t directly tell Vivian but chose to remain mysterious.
"You’ll know soon enough."
Vivian pouted, "Playing mysterious again..."
While Vivian and Selena were talking, they had reached the poolside.
But they didn’t get too close, choosing to stand on the outskirts.
In the center surrounded by people were the Blanchett sisters and the two Filipino maids holding Roxanne Sutton.
Catherine Blanchett watched Roxanne Sutton struggle hard, unable to break free.
Smiling slightly with pleasure.
"Roxanne Sutton, if you kneel and beg for forgiveness, I’ll spare you. How about it?"
Catherine crossed her arms arrogantly.
"You!... You’re dreaming!"
Roxanne Sutton knew Catherine Blanchett’s thoughts.
Even if she did as Catherine asked, Catherine would never spare her.
Instead, Catherine would mock her even more boldly!
Realizing that nothing you do would make Catherine spare her.
Roxanne Sutton became daring instead.
She suddenly calmed down, looking straight at Catherine Blanchett.
Then laughed.
"Catherine, do you think doing this will make Xavier notice you?"
"Unlike you, I’ve been by his side for years!"
"You’re targeting me now because you’re jealous! Think I don’t know?! You lack confidence in yourself, you can’t secure Xavier!"
"Look at yourself, which upper-class scions would be interested in you?!"
The socialites around were shocked looking at Roxanne Sutton.
Roxanne must be crazy!
She’s clearly provoking Catherine Blanchett!
Is she going for broke here?!
Hearing Roxanne’s words, Catherine’s smile slowly faded.
She walked up to Roxanne.
’Slap!’
Landing a hard slap on Roxanne Sutton.
Catherine didn’t hold back, even leaving thin scratches on Roxanne’s face with her nails.
And on the side of Roxanne’s face was a clear five-finger mark.
Afterwards, Catherine gave Roxanne no time to react, grabbing her hair and tilting her head aside.
Due to the pain, Roxanne grimaced slightly.
Yet her face still kept its smile.
"What?!"
"Hit your sore spot?!"
Roxanne continued.
The socialites couldn’t bear to look at Roxanne any longer.
They foresaw how miserable Roxanne would be.
Knowing well, Catherine holds grudges strongly.
Vivian didn’t expect Roxanne to be so bold.
"She knows she’ll be punished by Catherine, so she’s already indifferent?"
Vivian softly asked.
Selena glanced at Roxanne getting her hair pulled, nodding slightly.
Vivian sighed.
"Doesn’t she fear Catherine’s anger, ruining her face..."
Catherine heard Roxanne’s words, raised another hand and slapped her again.
Then coldly said, "I’m jealous of you?!"
"Jealous of you being an illegitimate child, or jealous of you for sleeping around?!"
Step back coldly, ordering the two Filipino maids, "Throw her in!"
Roxanne instinctively widened her eyes, struggling harder.
But the strength of the two maids kept her tightly restrained.
Leaving her no chance to escape.
"Yes, Miss,"
And upon Catherine’s order, the two Filipino maids threw Roxanne Sutton into the pool.
As Roxanne was thrown into the pool, ripples and waves spread.
Though it’s spring now, there’s still a piercing chill in the air.
So once Roxanne was thrown into the pool, she felt the icy cold seeping into her body. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
She shivered and sneezed several times.
Roxanne looked at the schadenfreude-filled socialites surrounding her; malice filled her eyes.
"You’ll!... You’ll all get your karma!"
Afterwards, she tried to climb up herself.
But as soon as her hands supported the edge to pull up, she felt a hand push her back down.
Once again, Roxanne fell into the pool.
Angrily looking up, she saw it was Catherine Blanchett squatting by the poolside.
