“Is he free tonight?
Why don’t you bring him home for dinner!”
“He’s very busy.” Scarlett Xavier directly refused.
Not to mention taking Julian Rhodes back, she herself didn’t really feel like going back to the Monroe Family.
It’s not like the Monroe Family did anything wrong to her, it’s just…
whenever she appears in front of her mother and sees how her mother dotes on Yasmine Morgan, it always makes her feel terrible.
Mother said, “Isn’t tomorrow the weekend?
You can bring him over in the evening, or he can stay at home.”
“I can’t decide his schedule.” Scarlett Xavier said, “If you don’t believe me, you can ask his family.
They’ve already said that he hasn’t married yet because he’s too busy working, no time to find a partner.”
Mother, recalling Julian Rhodes’ somewhat aloof nature, said, “Alright, alright!
It’s like this, Mom has a friend whose husband is sick, can you ask Julian to take a look at him?”
Scarlett Xavier frowned and asked, “Which friend’s husband is sick?”
“The Wang family, you’ve met them, just came over a few days ago.”
“It’s that aunt who’s always playing mahjong, right?” Scarlett Xavier said, “I’ve told you so many times, cut down on socializing with them.”
Scarlett Xavier had seen her mother’s mahjong pals.
Besides competing with each other, there wasn’t anything really good about them.
Scarlett Xavier could roughly imagine why her mother agreed to ask Julian Rhodes for help—just to satisfy her own vanity.
“Are you going to agree or not?
Just mention it to Julian Rhodes.
It’s mom’s friend after all, we can’t just ignore it, right?”
“If you’re sick, go to the hospital; it’s not like there are no doctors there.
I can’t help with this.” Julian Rhodes had made it very clear that he disliked trouble.
She was not going to go to him for this kind of thing.
When Mother heard this, she wasn’t happy at all, “Aunt Wang’s husband is sick and she’s so pitiful, just lend a hand.
It’s not difficult for Julian Rhodes, anyway.
Scarlett Xavier, why are you just like your dad, being so cold-hearted?”
“…” Scarlett Xavier realized that her mother most often said she was just like her father.
Hearing this, Scarlett Xavier laughed, “Mom, did you get something wrong?
Do you remember why I married Julian Rhodes?
Because of the family’s situation, because I needed help, that’s why I married him.
Do you think he was eager to marry me?
Have you considered my situation in the Griffin Family?
It’s only been a few days, and you’re already trying to satisfy your vanity by asking me to approach him and plead with him?”
“Alright, alright, just forget it if you don’t want to.
If it were Yasmine Morgan, she’d surely agree to this sort of thing.
Unlike you…”
Mother finished speaking and directly hung up the phone.
Scarlett Xavier looked at her phone and suddenly found herself angrily amused.
Yes!
Yasmine Morgan is the obedient girl, gentle beyond compare, what am I?
Bad-tempered and cold-hearted, of course, Mother doesn’t like her!
…
After breakfast, Scarlett Xavier went to the shop.
Although Julian Rhodes wanted her to stay at home, all her stuff was over here.
Right at the entrance, she saw Winston Shaw following Vivian Bell, “Vivi.”
Vivian Bell had already moved her things out and went back to live at home, she was even planning to sell the house, but Winston Shaw had no intention of giving up.
The White Family was quite well-off, when he first got into the hospital, it was Vivian Bell’s father who used connections.
Now that this has happened, if he really gets involved with a mistress, his future would be completely ruined.
No way he would do such a thing.
Vivian Bell said, “Why are you here, I don’t want to see you.
Winston Shaw, are you annoying or what?”
