<h4>Chapter 557: Chapter 557: Do not associate with Maxwell Saxon anymore</h4>


    "I can leave." Matthew Saxon resisted the urge to pull her into his arms. "But I’ll say it again, stop associating with Maxwell Saxon, it won’t do you any good, you’re inviting trouble."


    "I know how to handle my own affairs, there’s no need for you to worry about me."


    "Scarlett Yates, you’d better obey." Matthew clenched his fists, looking at her indifferent yet stubborn eyes. He really wanted to ignore everything and take her into his arms, pretend nothing had happened, and return to how things were before between them.


    But he couldn’t.


    "What if I say no, what will you do?" She seemed to deliberately provoke his anger, looking at him with a cold, challenging gaze.


    "You know very well, if you anger me, I have many ways to make you submit, but I don’t want to do that, so Scarlett, you’d better obey willingly, don’t force me to act against you."


    "Alright, then I’m very curious about your methods." Scarlett Yates smiled, showing an indifferent expression, "Emmy Thompson angered you, so the Thompson Family went bankrupt overnight. But I’m an orphan with both parents dead, no rtives, no family business, Young Master, what means do you n to use to punish me?"


    Matthew Saxon’s face grew even darker.


    Damn this woman, why can’t she just listen to him.


    Doesn’t she know how dangerous Maxwell Saxon is?


    "Scarlett Yates, are you deliberately trying to anger me?" He took a deep breath, his clenched fist suddenly mmed against the door.


    A thud sounded, the wood hitting the wall made a dull noise.


    Scarlett Yates’s body trembled slightly, seemingly startled by his sudden action.


    But soon, she pulled the corners of her lips into a fearless smile. "Was that punch meant for me, Young Master? How did it miss?"


    "What’s wrong with you?" Matthew suddenly grabbed her hand, tightly squeezing her wrist, his dark, icy eyes gazed deeply, as if trying to see through her, he said firmly, "What exactly did Maxwell Saxon say to you?"


    Even if they had broken up, her attitude shouldn’t be this cold.


    If it was because she saw him with Pearl Simmons, she should understand that his rtionship with Pearl was purely tonic.


    After the meal she had with Maxwell Saxon, her attitude changed drastically.


    Her eyes had never been this cold, colder than when she looked at strangers.


    Even if she got angry or threw a tantrum, it would be much better than this indifference.


    Her gaze made him uneasy.


    "I have no obligation to exin to you."


    "No matter what he says, don’t believe him, Scarlett. I’ve told you already, he is someone I have to be wary of. Don’t end up selling yourself out while helping him count his money. Tell me, what did he say to you?"


    Maxwell Saxon wouldn’t invite her to dinner for no reason.


    Maxwell Saxon always has a purpose for everything he does. Given his rtionship with Scarlett Yates, they shouldn’t be close enough to hang out for a private dinner.


    Moreover, it’s quite inappropriate for a man with a fiancée to invite his brother’s woman out for dinner. If there wasn’t some motive, Maxwell Saxon couldn’t possibly do that.


    "Young Master, I’ve made myself very clear, I have no duty to exin myself to you." Scarlett Yates coldly pried his fingers away one by one.
