At the moment Scarlett Yates saw Rose Yates, Rose’s little face showed an expression of surprise. She widened her eyes and looked at her for a few seconds, then sarcastically said, "It’s true what they say: people rely on clothes, and monks rely on gold. Sister, you’re so dressed up I almost didn’t recognize you. I didn’t expect you to dress up so well, at least you look much more pleasing to the eye."Scarlett glanced down at her, noticing that she had changed into a polka-dotted dress with a blue background. She smiled and said, "You’re not bad yourself. That little dress is quite pretty."
No matter if it’s a woman who’s ten, twenty, thirty... or a hundred years old, as long as she’s a woman, being praised like this will never spoil her mood.
Getting a compliment from Scarlett, Rose’s mood immediately improved, and in her good mood, she couldn’t help but say a little more, "Sister, are you going to the back garden to meet the guest?"
Listening to her tone, it sounded like she had already seen the person.
Scarlett then asked, "Have you seen him?"
Rose nodded, "Yeah, I just saw him go to the back garden with Dad."
"Oh? What does he look like?"
Rose seriously thought for a moment, then said, "He’s quite handsome."
After saying that, as if she thought her description was too simple, she added, "Really handsome, much better looking than those TV stars. Sister, do you think Dad is trying to introduce you to that man and let you marry him? If that’s true, then you’re in luck. Such a handsome man, having him as a husband, you’re back in the game."
What she said was too general, like she didn’t really say anything.
Scarlett pursed her lips, "What do you mean by me being in luck? Just because he’s a man, does that mean I have to marry him?"
Rose blinked curiously, "That’s a handsome guy, really handsome, why wouldn’t you marry him?"
"Marrying someone should be to someone you love, that’s what’s most important. Never mind, you wouldn’t understand this little kid stuff."
Rose continued, "You say that now, but once you see him, I bet you’ll fall for him. If I were old enough, where would you get a shot at such a handsome man?"
After finishing, she sighed sentimentally, "You were born before I was; I was born when you were already old..."
Scarlett’s lips twitched twice; kids these days really are...
Thinking of when she was ten, just talking about a certain boy would make her blush; she wouldn’t dare say such bold words.
However, hearing Rose say things like this probably means the man is really quite handsome, and most likely not too old...
Initially, Scarlett took Rose’s words as just a child’s nonsense, but now she’s feeling a subtle unease.
Noah... wouldn’t really be trying to introduce a man to her, would he?
Could it be that his insistence on her divorcing was to introduce her to another man?
With this thought, Scarlett’s heart suddenly sank heavily, feelings of unease beginning to surge, as if she couldn’t find a place to settle down, a sense of uneasiness rushes over her.
Carrying a heart full of unease, she walked to the back garden, passed through a rockery, and saw the pavilion, just over twenty steps away.
From her current position, she could see two people sitting inside, one being Noah, and the other obscured by a column, making it hard to see his face.
The closer she got, the clearer she could see the two people in the pavilion.
Scarlett’s heartbeat suddenly skipped twice.
