Scarlett Yates hesitated for a moment, then turned her head and glanced around, pulling up Rose Yates’ small hand, leading her upstairs. Besides Noah Yates and Nolan Yates, Rose Yates didn’t like being led by others like this, but she was in a relatively good mood now and her impression of Scarlett Yates had improved a lot, so she obediently let her lead her upstairs.
It wasn’t until they reached Scarlett Yates’ room that she released her hand and turned to close the door.
"Rose, did Dad tell you these things directly?" Scarlett Yates asked after making sure the door was properly closed.
Rose Yates found a place to sit down, lazily lounging on the sofa, responding lazily, "Daddy wouldn’t tell me such things, I overheard him while he was on the phone with someone."
That person... was most likely Maxwell Saxon.
"Besides these, did you hear anything else?"
"Anything else?" Rose Yates wrinkled her little face, thought for a while, then slowly said, "Daddy also said not to forget the promises made, otherwise, even if it involves his own daughter, he won’t show mercy."
"Hey, Daddy wasn’t referring to you, was he? It seems like he’s using you to threaten that person."
She had mistakenly thought Noah Yates sincerely cared for her for a while, since he still harbored some guilt for past incidents.
Rose Yates’ words truly made Scarlett see through Noah Yates more clearly.
What does a daughter count for?
For his interests, anything can be used.

Six in the evening.
The appointed time with Maxwell Saxon arrived.
Even though Scarlett felt unwilling, she still dressed up a bit and put on the jewelry set Maxwell Saxon gave her.
When the jewelry was taken out, Rose Yates was also watching, her eyes shining like light bulbs, exclaiming how she had her eye on this set for a while, but could only admire it longingly due to its expensive price.
Scarlett wasn’t aware of how much the jewelry cost.
She hadn’t been nearby when he paid and hadn’t asked Maxwell Saxon afterward.
But she still learned from Rose Yates.
"Sis, that man is pretty good to you, this diamond jewelry set is nearly worth a hundred million," Rose Yates said with both envy and jealousy.
"He spends so much money on jewelry for you easily, you can tell he’s also very wealthy. Such a handsome and rich man, you might as well marry him and become a young madam of a rich family, wouldn’t that be great?"
Spending a hundred million buying her a jewelry set, truly a generous gesture.
She had thought that leaving the Saxon Family, his wealth would be severely affected, and had even imagined him once falling from the status of a young master to an ordinary person’s tragic fate; now she realized how ridiculous her thoughts were.
Maxwell Saxon is Maxwell Saxon, even if he appeared to be down and out, he wouldn’t truly be so.
Easily spending a hundred million, which showed how abundant his assets were.
Even without the Saxon Family’s backing now, he could still live grandly.
"Young Mistress, Mr. Saxon has arrived." The maid gently knocked on the door to remind Scarlett Yates.
Just after speaking, she heard the sound of a man’s footsteps approaching her bedroom door.
She turned, lifted her head to look, Maxwell Saxon stood outside the door impeccably dressed.
He was dressed formally, in a deep gray suit, paired with a shining white shirt and a dark-patterned blue tie, the simplest ensemble highlighting an elegant and noble temperament.
