Scarlett Yates paused for a mont, turned around, walked a few steps to his side, and lowered her voice to say, "This ring is really expensive, let’s look at so others."
"Since you like it, just buy it." Matthew Saxon smiled, "No need to save money for ; I don’t feel any pressure with this amount."
"It really is very expensive." Scarlett watched as the shop assistant happily took the ring to wrap it up, and she wanted to stop her, "Wearing such an expensive ring isn’t safe. Let’s change to a different one."
Matthew wouldn’t actually let her go and stop the staff.
He reached out his big hand, pulled her back, and said, half amused, "Scarlett Yates, what are you trying to do?"
"I’m going to stop her," Scarlett replied honestly.
"Are you trying to embarrass on purpose?" He tugged her back as if she were a little chick, "I’m marrying a wife and can’t even bear to buy a ring worth millions. Are you trying to make people laugh at ?"
The word "wife" made Scarlett’s heart tremble and her face flush red.
Even though he married her only for Roy Saxon, hearing him call her wife ward and sweetened her heart.
"But..."
"But what? You don’t like it?"
"No, I do like it. It’s just too expensive."
"Look at your lack of ambition." He lowered his head, his narrow, phoenix-like eyes looking at her with a hint of a smile, seriously saying, "Scarlett Yates, no matter what, I will give you a grand wedding so that people won’t look down on you."
"Even though ours is a contract marriage, I won’t let you feel aggrieved; everything a normal wedding should have, there will be."
"You are now officially the Young Madam of the Saxon Family. You deserve a ring worth millions. I hope we can set aside the past and get along over these brief two months."
Now married, the two would have to live together.
Though it wouldn’t be like a real couple, even if they were just pretending, they would still share the sa space.
In the future, they’d be seeing each other almost constantly. If they kept holding onto grievances against each other, it would be a painful tornt.
He had thought about this before coming to A City to find her.
Two months is a short ti, but if they t each other with hatred, those months would beco a long suffering.
This isn’t the life he wants to see.
"Set aside the past?"
"Whatever happened between you and Maxwell Saxon, I’ll act as if it didn’t happen. I don’t care how far things went between you two, but during these two months, I hope you can be a competent wife."
Scarlett quickly understood what he ant.
He didn’t care about her and Maxwell Saxon, but once she agreed to marry him, she needed to keep her distance from Maxwell Saxon during this period.
Besides fulfilling her marital duties, she must be loyal to him like a real wife.
Scarlett found this fair.
In reality, she and Maxwell Saxon had nothing at all; she was rely tricking him initially.
Therefore, she agreed without much thought.
Still, ultimately she felt a bit sad.
His lack of concern for her relationship with Maxwell Saxon implies he doesn’t care about her either.
As a result, he wouldn’t care which man she chose to be with.
"Of course, what I require of you, I will also adhere to." He paused and then said, "If you have any requests for , feel free to make them."
