Free Web NovelChapter 1137: Chapter 1137: Try Laying a Finger on Her
Scarlett Yates thought Alice Green had gone mad.
Otherwise, how could she say such ridiculous things.
Lend Matthew Saxon to her for a few days? Who does she think she is?
Although she repeatedly told herself not to take it seriously with Alice, and treat everything she said as a joke, when hearing these absurd words, Scarlett Yates couldn’t help but speak out what was on her mind: "Alice Green, have you misunderstood something?"
"First, you said just now that no one knows who wins until the end, but I can tell you right now, if you insist that I am competing with you, this game has already ended, and the winner is me."
"Second, Matthew Saxon is not an object; he is a person of flesh, blood, and thoughts. His feelings are his own choice, not yours to decide. You have no right to use the word ’lend’; he never belonged to you, so where do you get the right to ’lend’ him?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m
"Third, it hasn’t been easy for me and him to get to where we are today, but rest assured, our happiness won’t be short-lived like you said; we’ll have a long and enduring happiness." freewebnσvel.cøm
"Fourth, if we are talking about settling scores, it should be between you and me. I’ve never owed you anything, instead you’ve repeatedly attacked me ruthlessly. You have no right to speak as if you’re the victim here."
With each sentence Scarlett Yates uttered, Alice Green’s expression darkened.
By the time Scarlett finished speaking, Alice’s face had turned completely black, her elegantly made-up face was distorted and menacing, losing all its previous charm.
"Scarlett Yates, you bitch!" She lashed out furiously, stepping forward and raising her hand to slap Scarlett Yates in the face.
However, her hand had just raised, not yet falling, when a cold, chilling voice suddenly sounded: "Alice Green, dare to touch her once and see what happens."
The voice was extremely cold, just behind her.
Alice Green couldn’t help but shiver, as if the chill had frozen her entire body, feeling the piercing cold.
Her hand extended in mid-air seemed frozen by the chill, remaining motionless.
The person behind her moved quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, she only saw a flash of black pass before her eyes, and when she focussed again, the black figure was already standing beside Scarlett Yates.
The black figure was Matthew Saxon.
He pulled Scarlett Yates into his embrace, those eyes previously filled with icy resolve melted in an instant upon looking at Scarlett Yates, his gaze softened to the point where Alice Green thought she was hallucinating.
Matthew Saxon quickly checked Scarlett Yates, confirmed she was unharmed, sighed in relief but still worriedly asked, "Are you okay?"
The moment he appeared, Scarlett Yates also breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a comforting sense of safety.
Facing Alice Green alone, she was indeed a bit nervous, afraid history would repeat itself with Alice Green suddenly doing something dangerous and stunning.
Luckily, Matthew Saxon still came.
He saw her message.
"I’m fine. Is the meeting over?"
"Not yet, but there was nothing important, so it was ended early." He spoke quite casually, but Scarlett Yates knew this meeting wasn’t as casual as he made it seem.
If he was attending in person, it couldn’t have been an ordinary meeting.
