This little girl really doesn't know what's good for her, forcing him to play the villain.
Just after the young master played the good cop, George tactfully took on the role of the villain, smiling he said, "If Miss Yates is unwilling to sign the statement, I will immediately arrange for someone to handle your expulsion from school. From now on, Miss Yates will live here. We will have dedicated staff to take care of you, and I'm sure Miss Yates will be satisfied with such arrangements."
Although Scarlett Yates is quite insensitive, she can tell which threats are real and which are not.
She is deeply convinced that if she really refuses Matthew Saxon's request, she might indeed be held captive here.
She never had any delusions about becoming the young madam of the Saxon family but was humiliated in such a way.
Since childhood, she never truly hated anyone, but Matthew Saxon's arrogance made her feel disgusted.
"Is this Roy Saxon's idea too?"
Her question was clearly redundant. The one who arranged the child marriage with the Yates family was Roy Saxon, and without his approval, how could Matthew Saxon act on his own?
The chairman of the Seymour Consortium is a prominent figure in society. In the eyes of others, Roy Saxon is deeply loyal and sincere, known for keeping his promises. How could he personally tarnish his reputation?
The father couldn't appear directly, so he had to let the son step in, making perfect sense both emotionally and rationally.
Thinking of this relationship, Scarlett Yates felt wronged for her deceased parents, who often praised and admired Mr. Saxon, yet he genuinely looked down on their family.
Matthew Saxon didn't answer her.
His silence said it all.
Scarlett Yates laughed angrily and looked into Matthew's eyes, her lips twisting in sarcasm, "Then tell me, Young Master Saxon, how much is my compensation?"
"Twenty million," answered Lena Ayles.
Lena Ayles examined her cheap attire and said meaningfully, "For Miss Yates, that amount is not small."
Twenty million...
Truly worthy of being A City's wealthiest and most powerful Saxon family, the gesture was indeed generous.
This amount could provide an ordinary family with a lifetime of comfort.
Everyone thought Scarlett Yates would be moved by this sudden offer of twenty million, but instead, they were met with her disdainful sneer...
"So, this is the value of the young madam's position in the Saxon family." Scarlett Yates raised her eyebrows slightly, returning the disdain she just received, and laughed mockingly, "The Saxon family has assets worth hundreds of billions of dollars. Yet, when dealing with trouble, you are only willing to pay such a small sum. Young Master Saxon, don't you think you're a bit stingy?"
"Too little?" Matthew Saxon suddenly laughed, and the contempt in his eyes was finally revealed without reservation.
It seems she's not just a greedy woman but also an ambitious one.
Such women are the most irritating, but also the easiest to deal with.
He had been a little worried that it might not be appropriate to bring her here secretly, but now he was glad of his decision.
How could Matthew Saxon possibly marry a greedy and hypocritical woman?
Matthew Saxon's eyebrows and eyes radiated disdain as he looked at her coldly and said, "How much do you want?"
In front of the disdainful and mocking gazes of the crowd, Scarlett Yates clearly and slowly said, "Two hundred million."
"Two hundred million?" The woman with a voluptuous figure exclaimed, "How shameless. You're just a poor student, and the second young master is being exceedingly generous giving you twenty million, yet you dare to dream and name such a price without assessing your own worth."
