Thinking back, he really has more flaws than merits."Alright, I promise you."
Maxwell Saxon’s deep voice sounded a bit forlorn: "I won’t touch him, as long as you keep your word."
"Alright, then it’s a deal between us." Scarlett Yates deliberately used the word "deal" to mock him.
As expected, Maxwell Saxon fell silent once more.
"If you have nothing else, I..."
"Accompany me shopping."
"Now?"
"Hmm."
"If you don’t want to go, then I’ll head to the hospital to check on Matthew. I heard his leg’s cast can be removed today..."
Scarlett Yates took a deep breath, bit her lip, and said through gritted teeth, "I promise you."
--
An hour later.
The largest jewelry store in the city center.
"Sir, Miss, welcome." The shop assistant greeted warmly, her shrewd eyes assessing the two, her attitude exceedingly attentive, with a smile plastered on her face, "Sir, Miss, please step inside. May I ask what you are looking to select?"
Maxwell Saxon smiled slightly: "I want to choose a set of jewelry for my fiancée."
Next to Maxwell Saxon, Scarlett Yates, who had been silently keeping her head down, suddenly looked up, anger flickering in her dark eyes. She bit her lip and quietly questioned, "Maxwell Saxon, who is your fiancée?"
Her voice was very quiet, only they could hear it; the shop assistant could only see her frowning and furious expression.
Maxwell Saxon curved his lips and also lowered his voice: "Scarlett, haven’t you already agreed to marry me? What’s wrong with saying that?"
She glared at him, gritting her teeth: "But Matthew and I haven’t divorced yet."
He laughed indifferently: "What does that matter? I’ve already set my mind on you. As soon as you divorce him, we’ll get married immediately."
"Don’t forget how much your mom dislikes me, does she agree to our marriage? You’re not going to ignore your mom’s opinion for me, are you?" At this moment, Scarlett Yates truly hoped May Denton would stop Maxwell Saxon.
On this matter, only May Denton’s opinion might have some impact.
Maxwell Saxon could ignore others’ opinions, but May Denton’s opinion was something he still had to heed somewhat.
Unexpectedly, Maxwell Saxon pursed his lips, lightly chuckled, and looked gently at her: "I’ve already talked to mom about it; she doesn’t interfere with my matters anymore. As long as I like it, she won’t oppose it."
"Oh, is that so? What a shame." Scarlett Yates immediately showed a disappointed expression.
Maxwell Saxon knew she was deliberately trying to provoke him, but he didn’t fall for it. His handsome face still carried a gentle smile: "Once you divorce Matthew, I’ll take you to see mom."
Scarlett Yates glanced at him, just smiled, and didn’t respond.
"Sir, Miss, if you’re looking to choose a complete set of jewelry, please follow me over here. The diamond jewelry on this side is designed by internationally renowned designers, including a newly arrived Only Love for Life series, which I think suits this Miss’s temperament very well."
While speaking, the shop assistant reached the counter and said to another assistant inside, "Quickly bring out the Only Love for Life diamond jewelry set."
The jewelry set mentioned by the assistant is the most expensive diamond jewelry set here.
Since it’s the most expensive, of course, in other aspects, it’s also very outstanding.
