Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 226: I Have No Choice but to Offend Him

The Douglas Family has formidable power, renowned in both legal and underworld circles.

Back in the day, Roy Saxon marrying Naomi Dougla was quite the social climb.

Although today, the Saxon Family’s status has improved significantly, compared to the Douglas Family, it still falls slightly short.

In short, this actually-not-at-all-old Old Master Douglas is quite the formidable figure, even Roy Saxon holds some respect towards his father-in-law.

With such an influential person, how could Scarlett Yates dare to show even a hint of discontent?

Even now, her little heart is still pounding away.

If she’d known she would be meeting Ian Douglas, she wouldn’t have come, no matter what.

After weighing her options, she could only disappoint Matthew’s good intentions.

Ian Douglas was barely satisfied with her response, let out a small snort, nodded, narrowed his peach blossom eyes that were strikingly similar to Matthew’s, and with a smile, asked, "Did I scare you?"

Scarlett Yates immediately shook her head again, forcing a reluctant smile at her lips, "The moment I saw you, I felt you were approachable, very amiable, how could anyone be scared?"

Ian Douglas snorted softly again, his peach blossom eyes slanted, full of pride, with a smug smile on his face, he half-squinted at Matthew Saxon and said, "Rascal, did you hear that? Your grandpa is very approachable and amiable."

Matthew Saxon chuckled, silently looking at Scarlett Yates.

Scarlett Yates blinked innocently, bit her lip, with a helpless expression. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

It wasn’t her fault.

It’s because he has such an impressive grandpa; she didn’t dare to offend Ian Douglas, so she had to offend him.

"I guess I misjudged."

After a moment of silence, Matthew Saxon chuckled softly, reached out, and pinched Scarlett Yates’s cheeks twice, saying with deep meaning, "Scarlett, you’re the first to call my grandpa approachable, with your compliment, he’ll be delighted for ten days or half a month."

His grip was far from gentle, Scarlett Yates seriously suspected he was venting his discontent.

Her cheeks were pinched to a rosy hue by Matthew Saxon, and where his fingers landed were all patches of red.

She couldn’t help but glare at him, her moist and soft eyes widened slightly, making her eyes appear watery, this look in the eyes of outsiders seemed like a tender gaze.

Matthew Saxon curled his lips, ignoring the warning in her eyes, took advantage of her inability to resist and pinched her again, seeing her gaze filled with displeasure yet helplessness, the long eyes showed a hint of a smile, with a trace of indulgence he hadn’t noticed.

The two of them gazed at each other, one with tender feelings, the other overflowing with fondness.

This gaze lasted for quite a while, as if everyone around them was invisible.

Ignored by his beloved grandson, Ian Douglas felt uncomfortable.

The damned rascal, really has forgotten his grandpa since he got a wife.

It’s just an ordinary young girl, yet she’s treated like a treasure, two years without seeing each other, not even expressing missing him, and before the meal even began, he’s accusing him of giving the girl a hard time.

She’s become quite the precious darling.

Though this girl from the Yates family does have some charm, how could she compare to the person he picked?

To say that his playboy grandson has seen countless people, immersed in a crowd of women for so many years, his taste should have been getting higher, so how could he end up bewitched by this young girl?
