Chapter 750

Maxwell Saxon nodded, worried she might be hungry, and gently reminded her, “There are snacks and fruits in the hall. If you’re hungry, have something to eat first p>

Just as he finished, Scarlett Yates felt Mayor Chapman’s meaningful gaze fall on her. After a few seconds, he teased with a playful tone, “Young Master Maxwell truly cherishes Miss Yates. Don’t worry; she won’t go hungry with me here p>

Maxwell Saxon smiled faintly, “Mayor Chapman is as humorous as always p>

“Did you see the woman Maxwell Saxon brought? Let me tell you, I know her. She’s Matthew Saxon’s ex-girlfriend. There were rumors before of an engagement between her and Matthew p>

“Oh, now that you mention it, I remember. They do look quite similar p>

“This woman has no shame. Dumped by Matthew Saxon, with no hope of marrying into high society, she’s now cozying up to Maxwell Saxon. Isn’t it said that Maxwell already has a fiancée? Why bring her to the banquet p>

“Who knows? The bigger the household, the more shady matters there are. Girlfriend, fiancée—if they’re not married into the family, there’s no guarantee; even if married, people can divorce, just swap a woman, nothing strange about it p>

“The brother doesn’t mind using the women his sibling has been with? Those two brothers have quite the… taste p>

No one knew the person they were gossiping about was right there in the restroom.

It was as if a bucket of cold water was poured over Scarlett Yates’s head. She paused for a few seconds until she heard the women who had been gossiping leave, then stepped out from the innermost stall.

Even though this wasn’t the first time she’d heard such things, it still left an unpleasant feeling in her heart.

But who could she blame?

After breaking up with Matthew Saxon, she indeed went out alone with Maxwell Saxon quite a few times. Others misunderstanding wasn’t entirely without reason.

She gave a bitter smile to the person in the mirror.

Scarlett Yates had just entered the hall when she heard someone saying the Saxon Family’s second Young Master had arrived.

He was once an old hand in the field of romance, and that kind of man is never seen as a good man at women’s gatherings, yet he appears most frequently.

So upon hearing his name, most women in the venue turned to look outside the hall.

Scarlett Yates was among those women.

She clearly told herself not to look, but her eyes involuntarily drifted toward the direction he appeared.

The mayor, who had just personally welcomed Maxwell Saxon, again personally escorted Matthew Saxon inside.

Matthew Saxon didn’t come alone.

He had brought a female companion.

Scarlett Yates instantly noticed the woman beside him. Petite in stature, but very beautiful, especially her eyes, seemingly able to speak.

Her milky white skin glowed with healthy radiance.

Her features were delicate, presenting an ethereal beauty, and the pale purple strapless gown she wore was exceptionally glamorous.

“Who is that woman p>

“Probably a new lover. She looks decent, but women who seem delicate like that are the best at pretending p>

“This second Young Master is truly flirtatious. So quickly with another companion. Just last month, he was with a woman surnamed Ding, and look at how quickly old flames become new passions again p>

“This Saxon Family’s second Young Master has always been so fickle. Previously, his pace in changing companions was even faster. He was born into privilege and is so alluring; what woman wouldn’t love such a man p>
