427  Revenge (3)

Scarlett secretly observed the person in front of her carefully. Now she felt confused. A critical question that she must resolve quickly…. Was the man before her Jude Withers or Noah Withers? Why were they so similar, and why did his anger towards Jude Withers feel so real? The situation was becoming more perplexing and more pressing with each passing moment.

"Sure, uncle! Jude Withers is a scum of society. A sinner. How could he torture his family? He doesn't deserve to stay in this world!" Scarlett expressed her anger, determined to stick to her plan regardless of whether the man in front of her was the real Jude or Noah.

Casually touching the invisible earbud, Scarlett whispered, "Move. NOW!"

Scarlett flashed a warm smile at the man across from her, who was now laughing. His laugh echoed through the room. It seemed he also felt happy that all his plans were going perfectly.

"That bastard Jude will soon meet his end... Ha-ha-ha..." The fake Noah's laughter faded slightly when the door opened.

All eyes turned toward the door and saw Rudy dragging a male figure with tattered clothes, his face covered in a brown sack. Rudy pushed the man so hard that he fell to the floor, silent and helpless.

"Scarlett, this man is Jude Withers," fake Noah said, asking Rudy to make the man kneel. Rudy immediately forced the man's knees on the floor, facing the fake Noah and Scarlett sitting in the seating area.

As the brown sack was lifted from the man's head, his panicked gaze quickly swept the room and stopped when he met Scarlett's eyes. He couldn't say anything because there was a cloth gagging his mouth. Only his sharp eyes stared at Scarlett as if wanting to communicate with her through his gaze.

Scarlett's heart trembled as she met those desperate gazes. She couldn't describe her feelings right now, as she was baffled. The man kneeling in front of her was unfamiliar, not her uncle Noah she ever met before; he looked completely different.

'This is the real Jude Withers!?' She silently muttered under her breath. This was her first time seeing the real Jude Withers in person.

So far, she had only seen Jude Withers' face in a photo she found on the Withers Group server. This man's face looked similar to the photo she had seen, but somehow his facial expression looked peculiar; she couldn't describe it in words — His panic and scared gaze trembled Scarlett's heart.

How strange!

'Uncle Noah,' Scarlett's gaze remained locked with the man's eyes. 'Is that you? Are you really Uncle Noah? Or Jude?' she tried to communicate through their eyes. But, of course, she got no answers, only deepening confusion.

"Scarlett, you can kill him now; he doesn't deserve to breathe the same air as us. He is a scum of society who must be killed..." Noah Withers' words took Scarlett by surprise.

She slowly turned her gaze away from the man's kneeling on the floor to the man who claimed to be her Uncle Noah Withers. When she met his angry glare, it made her even more confused.

'Is this man really Uncle Noah?' She asks herself.

Somehow, seeing these two men in the same room made Scarlett completely bewildered.

'Focus, Scarlett... Focus...' She tried to remind herself not to get distracted by the situation.

However, no matter how hard she tried, it was harder for her to understand. This was the first time Scarlett had encountered such a situation; her target to be killed was her family. Her real family. She felt scared for the first time during her mission. Frightened that she would make a misjudgment.

Scarlett felt confused, but suddenly, she heard a voice in her ear saying, "Little sister, follow your heart!" The calm voice of Rex snapped her out of her daze.

She took a slow breath and turned her head to look at the man on the floor. After meeting Jude Withers' pitiful gaze for a few seconds, she shifted her gaze to Noah Withers across from her.

"Uncle, there's no need to rush!" Scarlett said calmly, a smile appearing at the corners of her lips. She came back to herself as Three, not as a confused Scarlett Piers. "The important thing is that this evil Jude is in our hands. He won't be a threat to us anymore, right?" she casually asked, trying to buy time.

The fake Noah Withers seemed surprised at Scarlett's words. He observed her calmness for a few seconds before he answered, "Indeed. You are right, Scarlett... This man is no longer a threat to us."

Scarlett nodded before saying, "Now, the biggest problem is restoring the Withers family's reputation. The news out there is tarnishing the family's name, and the government could easily shut down all Withers businesses if you don't find a way to clear the accusations!"

She deliberately mentioned the Withers organization while carefully observing his expression, searching for any signs that he might be fake. She wanted to ensure she wouldn't make a mistake in choosing the wrong person to be killed.

Seeing that the man in front of her didn't say anything, Scarlett continued, "News about Withers is spreading rapidly, and it will undoubtedly ruin your political career, Uncle!"

Jude's face under the mask stiffened upon hearing her words. He knew very well that the damaging news had to be stopped immediately. He loathed the deliberate exposure of the Withers family's evil deeds, which included bribery, murder, and extortion, among others.

The constant stream of negative publicity gave Jude an unending headache. Despite their efforts, they couldn't solve the cyber attacks on their servers or remove the incriminating articles from the internet. It seemed like a powerful hacker was thwarting all their attempts, intensifying his frustration.

However, Jude couldn't vent his anger now. His priority was dealing with the real Noah Withers before executing his plan B — becoming the true Noah Withers and rebuilding the family's reputation through Noah's political career.

Jude Withers' gloomy eyes met Scarlett's as he spoke in a miserable tone, "Scarlett, I was shocked when I read the internet. Now, our family's reputation is crumbling... How can I continue my political career?" His shoulders slumped, and veins popped up on his forehead, conveying his sense of helplessness.

Scarlett remained silent, carefully studying his expression.

"Do you have any suggestions on how to restore our family's reputation?" He asked weakly. "Scarlett, do you have any hacker friends who can help clear the Withers' name out there?" His eyes pleaded with Scarlett.

'Gotcha!!' Scarlett exclaimed in her heart. Now she was absolutely sure that this man before her was a fake. He was not Noah Withers but Jude Withers, her nemesis.

Scarlett curled her lips into a nasty smile, and the evil flames danced happily in her eyes as she said, "Uncle Noah, let's kill this bastard Jude Withers!" She gracefully stood up from her chair, then took out her silver gun.

Without hesitation, Scarlett pointed her gun at the man, who was now trembling on the floor. He vigorously shook his head as if he wanted to tell Scarlett to stop shooting while his terrified eyes locked with Scarlett's horrified gaze.

He forced himself forward on his knees, attempting to approach Scarlett and beg for mercy, but before he could move any further, a powerful kick landed on his body, sending him flying. Rudy had delivered the kick.

Scarlett's hands gripped her weapon tighter as she angrily glared at Rudy. 'How dare he kick Uncle Noah?' She felt the urge to return the favor to this bastard Rudy!

When Scarlett was ready to shoot Noah, Jude Withers was stunned to see Scarlett suddenly turn cold, and her killing intent seemed to radiate around them.

'Why did this little girl change her mind? Does she really hate Jude that much? That's why she can't hold her anger anymore?' Jude Withers pondered to himself, feeling satisfied that Scarlett had not wasted his time. She was ready to execute her dear uncle, making it easier for his next plan.

"Yes, yes, my dear niece... Shoot him!" Jude stood beside Scarlett, his sly smile appearing as Noah lay pitifully on the floor.

'Sorry, little brother, you're so stupid and no longer useful to me. You'd better go after your beloved grandfather and father!' Jude's sinister thoughts echoed in his mind as he felt a sense of satisfaction.

Noah could only hold back his bitterness inwardly when he saw Jude Withers' malicious grin. He was powerless and could do nothing but accept his defeat and await his fate at Scarlett's hands. His eyes turned to Scarlett, his niece, and conveyed a smile filled with love and understanding.

'I'm sorry, Scarlett. I couldn't protect you. And, you don't have to worry, I will never blame you,' Noah felt tears welling up in his eyes. Slowly, he closed his eyes, preparing to meet his end.

Bang!

Gunshots echoed in the room, and at the same time, Noah's body jolted slightly, then lay motionless.
