Chapter 721
Sterling Cloud Trading is her family’s company. Compared to those big enterprises, Sterling Cloud certainly doesn’t count for much, but among medium-sized enterprises, it is a standout, with annual revenues of several billion.
In fact, Sterling Cloud Trading, which seemed glamorous on the surface, had shown signs of internal losses years ago.
If it weren’t for her capable cousin who timely extended a helping hand, not only bringing in a large investment but also diligently helping to manage and reorganize the company, Sterling Cloud would have folded long ago.
Therefore, Maxwell Saxon is not only a nominal relative of the Denton family but also the behind-the-scenes controller of Sterling Cloud Trading’s survival.
Since he’s now using Sterling Cloud as leverage, Alexis Denton knows she has no choice but to back down.
No matter how reluctant she is, she dares not truly tear into Maxwell Saxon.
It would bring her no benefit.
Without support from this cousin, the Denton family can hardly stand their ground.
Yet she is still unwilling.
Could it really be as she suspected, that not only has Matthew Saxon fallen for Scarlett Yates, even her enigmatic cousin also likes this despicable woman?
“Cousin, she took that drug, wait a few more minutes and the reaction will be very strong. If you want to take her away, once the drug fully kicks in, are you prepared to personally be her antidote? Aren’t you afraid of what Alice Green will find out p>
In her arms, Scarlett Yates’s breathing grew more rapid, and her body temperature climbed higher.
Her entire body was wet with sweat, clearly showing how strong the drug was.
A dazed expression gradually appeared on her face, and she was visibly about to completely lose her senses.
Maxwell Saxon frowned, suppressing the anger in his heart, his tightly pursed lips moved slightly: “What drug did you give her p>
Alexis Denton didn’t want to say, but under Maxwell Saxon’s frightfully dark gaze, she reluctantly admitted: “Enchanting p>
“Enchanting… You actually gave her such a strong drug.” Maxwell Saxon clenched his fists, his sharp gaze stabbed at Alexis Denton’s face like a knife.
Frightened by his look, Alexis Denton trembled and took a step back: “Perhaps, perhaps it’s still in time to go to the hospital now p>
Before she could finish her sentence, Maxwell Saxon already carried Scarlett Yates away in big strides.
“Uncle Thompson, head to the hospital immediately p>
“Yes, Young Master.” Seeing through the rearview mirror how Maxwell Saxon was wiping sweat off Scarlett Yates’s face with a frown, Uncle Thompson sighed secretly.
The Young Master had never been this nervous and caring about any woman before.
Even though he was constantly worried that the Young Master would get too involved, what could he do; if the Young Master truly took a liking to this woman, he couldn’t stop him.
The only hope was that the Young Master wouldn’t let this woman affect his original plans and decisions.
The drug’s effects grew increasingly intense, Scarlett Yates had been burned senseless, every bit of her remaining clarity burned away cleanly.
The sweat on her face was just wiped clean, yet it surfaced again.
Her fair cheeks burned a flushed crimson, she opened her dazed eyes, displaying a look of pain on her face, tightly grasping Maxwell Saxon’s hand, she cried out with a sob: “Hot, Maxwell Saxon, I feel awful p>
“Scarlett, hang on a little longer.” She was like a ball of fire in his arms, and it wasn’t just her feeling hot; Maxwell Saxon, holding her, felt the heat as well.
He could only repeatedly wipe the sweat from her face, his voice soft as he comforted, “We’ll be at the hospital soon, it will be alright shortly, trust me p>
