Especially Knox Simmons, now looking on the verge of tears. Although his eyes are full of tears, they never actually fall, making him seem even more pitiful.

Scarlett Yates’s compassionate side was triggered, and she genuinely pleaded for Knox Simmons.

She walked over to Matthew Saxon, gently tugged at his arm, "You didn’t bring me here just to watch you beat people up, did you?"

"Well, although you do look quite handsome when you beat people up, a gentleman should use words not fists, hitting others is always not right."

Matthew Saxon was amused by her words, raising his eyebrows, his voice lowered to an irresistibly sexy and magnetic pitch, "Who was it that said I was a beast disguised as a gentleman, and now I’m supposed to be a gentleman? Since I’m not, using my fists shouldn’t be an issue, right?"

"In a showdown between men, women should stay out of the way. You go sit aside, there will be someone to serve you good food and drinks. Once I’ve dealt enough with this audacious punk, I’ll come to accompany you."

Huh, rejected?

Scarlett Yates lifted her head in disbelief.

As soon as she looked up, she saw Matthew Saxon’s long eyes full of amused teasing, clearly toying with her again.

Suddenly, Scarlett Yates felt a surge of anger.

She was coaxed by his friends to come plead on behalf of Knox, given so many accolades, and he heard it all clearly. He should at least give her some face and, as they said, release Knox immediately!

That would show he really values her!

That would prove she truly is his cherished one!

But what’s this behavior?

She’s already spoken up for him, yet he rejected her, isn’t that embarrassing?

How would she hold her head up in front of his friends later on!

The more Scarlett thought about it, the more stifled she felt and the angrier she became. She furrowed her brow, straightened her little back, raised her voice and yelled, "Anyway, hitting people is wrong. Matthew Saxon, are you letting him go or not! If you continue playing this hitting game, I’m leaving now, enjoy playing here alone."

"Goodbye, hope you have fun."

Once the outburst was over, the person who got yelled at showed no reaction, but others froze.

Did that little girl just yell at their boss?

For the first time seeing Matthew Saxon getting yelled at by a woman, a few were shocked for a few seconds, then they all wore a face eager to watch the drama, collectively turning their gaze to Matthew Saxon, waiting to see his reaction.

Though rumors say their boss spoils this woman, whether it’s true or how much he spoils her, now they could see for themselves.

That little girl already stormed off to the door.

Their boss not only didn’t get angry after being yelled at, but rather hurriedly chased after her when he saw her leave.

"Scarlett, don’t go." Young Master Saxon, who cared most about saving face, put aside his pride at this moment, caught up with her, and pulled her back.

"You’re right, a gentleman uses words not fists. Today, for the sake of you pleading for him, I won’t hold it against him."

Behind him, there was a sound of jaws dropping.

A voice tinged with roguish amusement said, "Am I seeing things? Was that really the Matthew Saxon who swore he wouldn’t love any woman in this lifetime?"

Another voice also teasingly remarked, "He also said love is the most useless thing in the world."
