Chapter 1490: It’s All Scarlett Yates’s Fault

Chapter 1490: Chapter 1490: It’s All Scarlett Yates’s Fault

The man noticed she was scared and reached out to pat her half-exposed shoulder, taking the opportunity to cop a feel, smiling wickedly, "Beauty, don’t be afraid. As long as you please the boss, he’s a man who knows how to cherish women. When a man enjoys himself, everything else is easier. I’m just giving you a tip because I see you’re sensible. If you win the boss’s favor, don’t forget about me."

Alice Green wished she could chop off the man’s hand, but her face displayed a smile she had practiced for a long time, "Thank you, brother, for the reminder. I’ll remember your kindness."

Her smile was both faintly fragile and charming, the kind that men liked the most.

Sure enough, the man’s eyes were glued to her, mesmerized, almost unable to look away. He swallowed hard, keeping his hand on her shoulder, "What did you just call me?"

Alice smiled coquettishly, "Brother, I see you’re a year or two older than me. Calling you brother isn’t wrong, right?"

In fact, the man looked almost forty.

The man was stunned for a moment, but hearing her sweet "brother" left him ecstatic, "Not wrong, not wrong. Just for calling me brother, don’t worry. As long as you serve the boss well, I’ll put in a good word for you and keep you by the big boss’s side."

For her right now, this was probably the best outcome.

Staying by that perverted man’s side to serve him would eventually provide an opportunity to escape.

If she did not do this, the result could really be that she’d end up as a specimen.

Finally able to preserve her life, Alice’s heart was filled with both joy and deep resentment at this moment...

She was joyful because she had a chance to survive.

But resentful because Matthew Saxon hadn’t sent anyone to look for her.

Even though they were trapped in this godforsaken village, they could still hear some outside news from these people holding them hostage.

Yesterday, she heard someone say that Matthew Saxon hadn’t died and had returned to Z City unscratched.

He wasn’t dead, yet he hadn’t sent anyone to find her.

Having Scarlett Yates meant he no longer cared about her life or death.

But he wasn’t like that before, back then, no matter how big the mistake she made, he would eventually forgive her.

It must have been Scarlett Yates who stood in the way.

The Matthew Saxon she knew wasn’t such a heartless person, but ever since he met Scarlett Yates, there was no place for her in his heart.

It’s the same this time; maybe he did think about finding her, yet Scarlett Yates stopped him.

If it weren’t for Scarlett Yates, she and Matthew Saxon wouldn’t have ended up as enemies, and if it wasn’t for Scarlett’s appearance leaving her hopeless, she wouldn’t have decided to team up with Maxwell Saxon.

Everything is Scarlett Yates’s fault.

That damned woman destroyed everything she had.

Now, as long as she could stay alive, and if one day she could escape back to Z City, she would make sure to repay all the pain she suffered, twofold.

"Scarlett, I told you I could wait."

Knox Simmons’ emotions grew more intense, he placed both hands on the table and leaned forward, almost knocking over the water cup in front of him, "I don’t care, I know you don’t like me, but so what? My liking you is my own business, I don’t need you to reciprocate."
