Chapter 874: Chapter 874: Madam, Priorities First
After speaking, her red lips curled up slightly, as if she were smiling, but her voice grew colder: "I told Sir a long ti ago, the poorest won are the most indiscreet, they cling to whoever has money. But he didn’t believe
and got angry with . Now look, where did I go wrong? Isn’t she just a shaless gold digger?"
Uncle Thompson paused for a mont and replied, "Young Master is soone who does great things, seldom has won around him. It’s understandable that he couldn’t resist temptation."
"You’re right. Maxwell isn’t like that little bastard. Although he has plenty of won around him, he manages company affairs very well, but in matters of love, he lacks experience. When t with a woman with impure intentions, it’s normal to be tempted."
Uncle Thompson added, "Therefore, before Young Master loses more of his rationality to her, Madam should cut her losses in ti."
From this back-and-forth conversation, Scarlett Yates understood so things.
For example, why May Denton knew she was here, and why Uncle Thompson accompanied her.
Scarlett’s heart suddenly sank.
She was well aware of how much May Denton despised her.
Now, this woman who utterly loathed her believed she had seduced Maxwell Saxon, and with Uncle Thompson’s assistance, confird her supposed guilt further.
Matthew had warned her from the first ti she visited the Saxon Family to keep her distance from Maxwell, or else May Denton would trouble her.
Scarlett hadn’t experienced May Denton’s tactics.
But she knew very well how vicious Alexis Denton could be.
She believed that compared to Alexis, May Denton’s thods would only be more ruthless.
Scarlett put down her book and jumped off the windowsill.
She was still in her pajamas, unsure how long Maxwell intended to keep her confined here. Since the first day she moved in, he had bought her a plethora of clothes.
The expensive and fashionable clothes in the wardrobe were mostly unworn, with the tags still hanging on them.
Staying here all day, there was no point in wearing those beautiful clothes.
Having just woken up from a nap, her hair was a ss, and she hadn’t had a chance to put on undergarnts. In May Denton’s eyes, she looked even more like a seductive temptress.
Thinking about how she had once taken on so much from Roy Saxon, and now daring to seduce her son, May Denton was furious. She stepped forward quickly and slapped Scarlett across the face.
May had wanted to slap her for a long ti.
But back then, with Roy and Matthew protecting her, May could do nothing and had to endure patiently.
Now the situation was different, so May vented all the frustrations she’d suffered under Roy and Matthew onto her.
Unsatisfied with just one slap, she raised her hand to strike another, but Uncle Thompson ca over to stop her.
"Madam, business first."
"Hmph, seeing that coquettish face of hers just makes
angry." Uncle Thompson had influence with May Denton and, after listening to him, she gritted her teeth, cursed a few words at Scarlett, and withdrew her hand.
That slap just now, Scarlett had taken it hard.
She didn’t dodge. The slap landed and left a bloody taste in her mouth.
She was on their turf. Where could she possibly hide?
