Scarlett stepped halfway down the staircase as her eyes landed directly on Betty and Jude
Betty was standing close to Jude while Jude was still holding her wrist
Scarlett's steps slowed instantly when she noticed Betty's flushed face
Jude's expression was very uncomfortable, and she noticed as well
She thought that after everything that had happened today, this was definitely the last thing she wanted to walk into
Jude sharply turned the moment he noticed her
"Scarlett..."
"What's happening here?", Scarlett asked calmly
Betty stepped back from Jude immediately, as if she had been caught doing something terrible
Jude instantly released her wrist when he saw Scarlett's eyes on his hand
"This is not what it looks like."
Scarlett slowly came down the remaining stairs while she looked at both of them carefully
"Oh! Interesting", she muttered softly
Jude dragged his right hand across his face roughly
"Scarlett, you have to listen to me first."
