Chapter 509
Watching her thank him so earnestly, Matthew Saxon chuckled helplessly.
The two had already started dating, yet she was still so polite to him.
For him, this was just a small favor; in fact, as long as she asked, no matter what she requested, he couldn’t refuse.
Last night, he already saw what she was thinking, he kept waiting for her to speak up, but she just held it in, making him feel both amused and slightly annoyed.
She still didn’t see him as one of her own.
That’s why she hesitated to even ask him for a small favor, ultimately choosing to keep it to herself.
She could have confidently asked him to help Stella Nelson; from the moment he decided they were officially dating, he had given her that right.
“No need to thank me, just accompany me for breakfast p>
“What do you want to eat, my treat.” Scarlett Yates boldly declared, but then thought of her meager wallet and blushed, adding, “But I’m low on cash, so if you want to go to an upscale restaurant, could you wait until I get paid p>
“An intern’s salary can’t be much. Even if you spent your entire month’s wage, it wouldn’t cover one meal for me.” Matthew Saxon seemed to consider her words seriously, then frowned as he spoke.
“Just don’t go anywhere too expensive, we can still manage a meal.” She knew he had money, but did he have to disdainfully highlight her financial shortcomings?
Matthew thought it over again, then sighed, “But all the places I like are expensive p>
“Then wait until I earn lots and lots of money p>
“Do you want me to wait forever, Scarlett?” He cruelly shattered her beautiful fantasy.
“Come on, it seems like I’ll have to treat you this time. If you really want to show your gratitude, eat a lot, nourish yourself, gain some weight, that would actually help me a bit.” He led her forward slowly amidst the envious gazes of others.
After walking down the street, they turned into a small alley where there was a restaurant with authentic tea meals.
After a brief silence, a curious voice broke out, “If I gain weight, how does that help you p>
The wall along the street was covered in vibrant blooming roses.
The pink and white roses were dazzling under the bright sunlight, but the face beside the rose-covered wall was even more captivating, with demonically elegant features, flawless and impeccable.
The sun was bright, the flowers delightful, the handsome man pleasing to the eye; it was a scene of serene beauty, but as soon as someone spoke, the fresh and pleasant atmosphere vanished instantly.
Matthew Saxon turned his head, his long phoenix eyes curved, maliciously curling up his thin lips, “Scarlett, the feel is really important p>
The feel?
Scarlett Yates froze for a few seconds, then suddenly understood p>
Her face flushed instantly, she turned around, raging, and swung her fist towards someone, “Pervert, shameless p>
Matthew didn’t dodge, catching her swinging fist, “Hitting me will hurt yourself, Scarlett, are you sure you want to be so harsh on me p>
Amidst their playful bickering and teasing, not far behind them, a pair of eyes filled with hatred and malice watched them intently from a parked black sedan.
Inside the car, a malevolent and chilling voice hissed with venom, “Scarlett Yates, it’s all your fault, you wretched woman, you ruined my family, I will make you pay p>
