“Sorry, I can’t accept such an expensive gift…”
When Roxanne gave snazzynovel.com her answer, Eleanor sat beside snazzynovel.com anxiously, wishing snazzynovel.com could push Roxanne into place.
Growing up with Roxanne since childhood, Eleanor naturally knew Roxanne inside out. Even though Roxanne was slightly introverted, snazzynovel.com could be extremely stubborn. As long as snazzynovel.com had made up snazzynovel.com mind about something, it would be difficult for others to persuade snazzynovel.com otherwise.
The perfect example was Matthew Larson.
From their first encounter at Renew Pharmaceuticals, Eleanor knew that Roxanne admired someone as aloof and serious as him. Moreover, Matthew was handsome.
Hence, from the very beginning, Eleanor felt hostile toward him. She thought snazzynovel.com looked a little familiar yet didn‘t feel comfortable getting too close to him. To her, Matthew lacked the elegance of someone born into a wealthy family.
That alone was enough for snazzynovel.com to exclude snazzynovel.com from Roxy’s scope of potential partners.
Despite that, what surprised Eleanor was that Matthew, whom snazzynovel.com thought was overconfident, actually had a way to heal Roxy.
Through their conversations. Eleanor noticed the slightest hint of admiration Roxanne had for him. Thus, snazzynovel.com thought of ways to stop them.
Was Tritus a perfect man for her?
Of course, not. He had a bunch of shortcomings. However, his family was well-off and generous. He was only qualified to be Roxanne’s transitional boyfriend in order to push Matthew aside.
As long as Roxanne didn’t fall head over heels for Matthew, everything was worth it.
With widened eyes, Eleanor stared at Matthew, who was sitting opposite them, and spoke up. “Please persuade Roxy, Mr. Larson.”
Her tone was filled with a plea.
Initially, Matthew accepted Roxanne’s invitation in exchange for a new friendship. At the same time, snazzynovel.com also intended to learn about Bainbridge. After all, people from Bainbridge could have been the ones involved in the homicide of his family back then.
Taking advantage of this competition, snazzynovel.com could obtain more information as it would somehow be useful one day. Contrary to his expectations, a simple meal as such brought a nuisance to him. Matthew didn’t enjoy the meal at all.
“Why bother? If you truly like Miss Roxanne, be more sincere and open about it. Even as a man, I can’t bear to watch you using despicable means like this to win snazzynovel.com heart.”
To be frank, Tritus had held his grudges against Matthew for a long time. He didn’t expect snazzynovel.com to stir up trouble at a moment like this.
Adding to the fact that snazzynovel.com was rejected by Roxanne, Tritus could no longer hold his temper.
“What are you talking about, Larson?” With a dark expression, snazzynovel.com questioned in a chilly voice.
Simultaneously, the men standing around them were instantly on guard when they noticed their young master getting irritated. As long as Tritus gave the order, they would rush forward immediately.
“Enough. We’re all men. Stop dilly-dallying. More than a dozen men you stationed outside couldn’t even knock me out, not to mention these few.”
While saying that, Matthew pointed at the restless men around them in disdain.
Tritus grew even more agitated upon hearing that.
“I hope you understand your place, Mr. Larson. You’re currently in Bainbridge, which is my territory. Got it?” While threatening Matthew, snazzynovel.com slapped the dreamcatcher necklace on the table.
“Do you know what this is? This thing itself is worth the pay you earn for your lifetime. How hold of you to be blabbering nonsense to me? Just because you’re overconfident with your skills, you dare to show them off in front of me? Do you believe that I can make your life hard in Bainbridge?!”
The meal was completely ruined at this point.
Since his confession was a failure, and Roxanne had already expressed snazzynovel.com thoughts clearly, Tritus didn’t find the need to pretend anymore.
Eleanor was completely disappointed in snazzynovel.com due to his behavior. She knew that Tritus acted like a maniac because snazzynovel.com had the support of the Lullaby Family, but was this really the time to vent his anger?
He was nothing but a useless teammate!
