Chapter 413
The expressionless face displayed a faint smile the moment he saw Matthew Saxon, softening the sharp lines of his features.
“Boss Mainworth, long time no see.” Matthew Saxon curved his lips into a smile and stood up to greet the newcomer.
The two of them, like old friends who hadn’t met for a long time, shared a brotherly hug, after which Watt Mainworth quickly noticed Scarlett Yates.
He seemed to have a slight smile at the corner of his lips, his beautiful eyes like jewels assessing Scarlett Yates for a few seconds before turning his gaze to Matthew Saxon, “Is it her p>
“Yes p>
Matthew Saxon’s response seemed to pique his interest greatly; initially, he was startled, then began to scrutinize Scarlett Yates again.
After seeming to examine her from head to toe, he finally moved his gaze slowly away, “This is the first time you’ve brought a woman here to see me p>
“Yes p>
“So, I’m tempted to guess, does this woman mean something very different to you p>
His voice wasn’t quiet.
At the very least, Scarlett Yates could hear what he was saying very clearly.
So, right after Watt Mainworth asked the question, Scarlett Yates’s first reaction was to look at Matthew Saxon.
Coincidentally, at that moment, as if telepathically connected, Matthew Saxon also turned to look at her.
Their gazes met in the air, and Matthew Saxon gave her a deep, thoughtful look, then slowly curved his lips into a smile.
“Is this very important?” he asked.
Watt Mainworth nodded, “Yes p>
“What’s the difference between yes and no p>
“If she’s a woman who is very important to you, I can agree to your request. If not, then she doesn’t qualify for me to do these things for her p>
The tone was arrogant and lofty; such words, if spoken by another, would undoubtedly be annoying, but from his mouth, it felt as if he naturally had the right to say so.
Matthew Saxon squinted slightly as he listened, smiled, and said, “I know Boss Mainworth is very proud; if she wasn’t important to me, I wouldn’t have brought her to meet you p>
His response seemed to surprise Watt Mainworth a little; he was stunned for a moment, and his expression, as he looked at Matthew Saxon, actually carried a hint of schadenfreude, “Didn’t expect you’d have such a day p>
Matthew Saxon seemed unfazed, raised his eyebrows slightly, his lips curving into a devilish smile, “So, is Boss Mainworth ready to take action now p>
Watt Mainworth didn’t speak; he smiled at him, then turned and walked towards Scarlett Yates.
Scarlett Yates wanted to get up and greet him but, recalling her frail and weak body, dismissed the thought and could only give Watt Mainworth an apologetic smile, “Boss, I’m sorry, I’ve been in a coma for a few days and have no strength, so p>
Watt Mainworth interrupted her, “No need to explain, I’m aware of your situation p>
“Do you really like rosewood carvings?” His features were refined and delicate, his skin so pale it would make many women feel inferior.
Up close, Scarlett Yates could clearly see his appearance.
She had assumed the restaurant owner was a middle-aged or older man; she never expected him to be such a young and handsome man.
“Yes, I really like them p>
“I have an existing jade carving here. Consider it a gift for our first meeting; how about we trade this for those wood carvings?” As soon as he finished speaking, he extended his hand to her.
A very beautiful hand, the fingers long and slender, with distinct joints, holding a piece of lustrous Nephrite Jade carving with exceptional translucency and color.
