Chapter 597
All the trust seems laughable in the face of such a cold reality.
The sweet words still linger in her ears, but she no longer dares to believe them.
It was foolish of her to try and believe in a heartless man.
Now realizing she’s been played, she feels pathetic and mocked, but mostly, she feels she’s brought it upon herself.
No one threatened her to believe him, to accept him.
It was her own lack of determination that couldn’t resist his temptation. Even if deceived and played, who can she blame?
Her eyes felt sore and swollen as she watched the pair of laughing and chatting people for a while, biting her lip and turning her gaze away, stiffly turned around, then stiffly raised her hand to hail a taxi.
“Stella, let’s go p>
Just as the two got into the taxi, Alexis Denton, who had her head buried in her steak, slowly lifted her head, the silver fork holding a tender and juicy steak exuding a tempting aroma.
Alexis Denton casually flipped her curls hanging over her shoulder, seemingly inadvertently glanced out the window, and only after seeing Scarlett Yates’ taxi completely disappear into the traffic did she relax and curl her lips, then lowered her gaze once more, hiding the triumphant smile in her eyes.
She knew Scarlett would come.
Despite Stella and Matthew Saxon having broken up with the help of her older cousin Maxwell Saxon, she still wasn’t at ease.
Encountering Scarlett in the department store wasn’t really a coincidence.
She put a bit of thought into it and led her to Richmond Hotel.
She saw Scarlett looking lost outside the hotel earlier.
Obviously, Scarlett believed her words.
“What are you looking at?” Matthew followed her gaze outside and lazily withdrew his gaze, asking casually.
Alexis looked startled, frozen for a moment, then hurriedly turned her head, quickly hiding her panicked emotions, shaking her head, and smiling seductively, “Nothing, I just thought the night view was beautiful and couldn’t help but take another look p>
Earlier, Matthew didn’t notice Scarlett, right?
For some reason, even though Scarlett and Matthew have already broken up, Alexis still feels uneasy.
Trusting her woman’s intuition, she feels Matthew’s feelings for Scarlett aren’t as indifferent as he claims.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have deliberately led Scarlett to Richmond Hotel.
“Night view?” Matthew smirked, turning his head to glance out the window, his thin lips curved in an attractive arc, “The night view is indeed beautiful, but p>
He turned his charming, elongated almond eyes towards Alexis, “No matter how beautiful the night view is, it can’t compare to the beauty in front of me p>
Alexis wasn’t someone who hadn’t been flattered by men before.
She thought she was immune to these sweet words, but when the same words came from Matthew, she couldn’t resist, her heart pounding chaotically.
She loved this man.
From the moment she first laid eyes on him, she fell for him.
So, no matter what, she must have this man.
No matter what it takes.
The spacious and luxurious suite.
Having just enjoyed a rich and delicious breakfast with the one she loved, Alexis Denton’s mood was bright, her lips constantly curved in a joyful smile.
The magnificent crystal chandelier hung down like a waterfall.
She had this presidential suite booked for a long time as the place for her and Matthew’s evening dates.
