Chapter 753: Chapter 753 Deliberately Causing Trouble
"You, you must be joking." Scarlett Yates was being watched intently and seriously by him, which brought forth a slightly unnatural expression on her face. She coughed lightly to cover up her embarrassnt, reached out to touch her slightly dizzy forehead, and whispered, "I’m a bit hungry, I’ll go get sothing to eat."
She slowly stood up. Just as she steadied herself, she felt a bit dizzy, the ground wobbled a few tis, and the people in the hall swayed as well. She stood in place for a few seconds before slowly regaining normalcy.
It seems that although Champagne tastes light and like a beverage, drinking too much still gets one drunk.
"I’ll go with you." Seeing that she was a bit drunk, Maxwell Saxon couldn’t rest easy letting her go alone, so he stood up to go with her.
Just as he was about to leave, he caught sight of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.
Maxwell Saxon’s expression shifted slightly, his eyes flickered, and he moved closer to Scarlett Yates, then stood beside her.
"I was wondering where my brother disappeared in the blink of an eye, turns out he slipped away to this little corner." A lazy voice sounded, carrying a bit of ridicule. The laid-back tone matched the owner’s expression, showing a certain nonchalance.
Scarlett Yates’s heart suddenly skipped a few beats.
She had already avoided such an inconspicuous place, yet she still couldn’t escape an encounter with him.
Maxwell Saxon smiled, naturally looking at him, "There are fewer people here, it’s quieter."
"Oh, so you don’t like too much noise then? If you don’t like crowded places, why co to this banquet? Just co up with any excuse to decline, I don’t think Mayor Chapman would be displeased with you because of that. Coming unwillingly, what’s the point?"
No matter how you listen, his tone carries a hint of provocation, as if deliberately stirring trouble.
But with Maxwell Saxon’s temperant, the trouble can’t be stirred up.
Matthew Saxon has always been like this in front of him, and he’s endured it for so many years, why would he explode now?
Yet he doesn’t want to cause a fuss, but Matthew Saxon does not think the sa way.
After provoking Maxwell Saxon, he turned his attention back to Scarlett Yates.
The hand around Softy’s waist tightened, a flash of anger swiftly passed through his long, narrow eyes. He smiled, a flirtatious gaze landing on Scarlett Yates, "Isn’t this Miss Yates? Haven’t seen you for a few days, Miss Yates has beco much colder towards . I don’t think I’ve done anything to offend you, Miss Yates, why is it that when we et, you don’t even afford
a single glance?"
Scarlett Yates was forced by his words to look up.
Her head was a bit dizzy, the aftereffect of the Champagne hit her.
She had to lean against Maxwell Saxon to maintain her balance.
And this tiny movent was seen entirely by Matthew Saxon opposite.
The anger hidden in his eyes intensified, and a mocking smile pulled at the corners of his mouth.
What else could he say?
In the past, he thought his judgnt had been off, that’s why he liked her.
She claid she still loved Henry, but it was just to hide her true intentions.
He repeatedly warned her that Maxwell Saxon was unreliable, yet she repeatedly ignored his concerns and warnings, and her interactions with Maxwell Saxon beca more frequent, as did the closeness of her relationship with Maxwell Saxon.
What do such signs indicate? If he still doesn’t understand, then he truly is a complete fool.
He should have seen it long ago.
