Chapter 681: Chapter 681: Want to compete with ?
The words spoken by a child, how can they be taken seriously.
He really was quite foolish. After all these years, he still rembered those playful words so clearly.
The two of them fell silent for a mont.
Slam—
The sound from the dining room broke the silence, drawing both of their gazes.
It sounded like a cup had fallen to the ground.
Imdiately after, Angela’s surprised and frantic voice rang out, "Se... Second Young Master, how did you..."
Her voice was filled with evident anxiety and unease.
"She’s back?" A deep and icy voice also ca from the living room.
Angela stamred, "Second Young Master, I, I..."
"I’ll deal with you later when I have ti." The man snorted coldly, and hurried footsteps approached the living room.
Getting closer and closer...
Scarlett Yates unconsciously gripped the cushion on the sofa tightly, her face cold as she looked toward the direction of the approaching footsteps.
Matthew Saxon walked quickly into the living room, "Scarlett, why did you hang up my call and turn off your phone? Do you have any idea that I might have thought you were in danger?"
He was clearly worried about her safety, but in his excessive concern, his words ca out as scolding, sounding like he was losing his temper with her.
Scarlett was imdiately angered, her face turned cold, and she sneered at him, "What, am I not allowed to hang up your call? What’s wrong with
turning off my phone? I can do whatever I want, what does it have to do with you?"
Matthew’s brow furrowed, about to speak, when he suddenly noticed there was another person in the living room besides Scarlett.
A person he least wanted to see.
When he saw Maxwell Saxon, Matthew paused, his narrow eyes squinted slightly, "Big brother, what are you doing here?"
His tone and expression were unfriendly, displaying obvious hostility, no longer hiding it as he used to.
Maxwell looked up at him, smiling as he greeted, "What a coincidence, you’re in A City today too. It seems the two of us brothers really have so unexpected connections in certain ways."
"You haven’t answered my question yet."
Maxwell’s lips curled into a smile, his expression calm, "The reason you’re here is the sa as mine."
The reason he was here, was obviously for Scarlett!
Maxwell’s answer imdiately made Matthew’s face turn frosty.
His eyes narrowed, and his handso face clouded over, "Have you forgotten so things?"
"Oh?" Maxwell raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled.
"Who was it that constantly told Dad he had found the woman he loved and wanted to marry her as soon as possible."
"Oh, you’re talking about that matter." Maxwell nodded in acknowledgnt, "I did say that back then, but people’s thoughts can change at any ti. At that ti, I was wholeheartedly wanting to marry Alice, but now, I don’t think so anymore."
Matthew sneered, "Big brother, it’s fine to joke, but when the joke becos too serious, it’s not fun anymore."
Maxwell still smiled, but his tone was very serious, "Matthew, you should know, I don’t make such jokes casually."
Matthew clenched his fists, "So, big brother, you’re saying you want to compete with ?"
Maxwell glanced at Scarlett, smiled, and said, "It’s not about competition, just fair competition, that’s all."
After speaking, he smiled again, looking at Matthew aningfully, "Are you afraid? Afraid you can’t beat ."
"Maxwell, how dare you go after her." Fire ignited in Matthew’s eyes in an instant, and he rushed in front of Maxwell, his face livid as he grabbed his collar, and aid a punch right at his face.
