Chapter 1173: Because I Wanted to Surprise You!
George knew about Scarlett Yates’s feelings, and if he wasn’t left with no choice, he wouldn’t hand Scarlett over to George.Even though he knew George was very loyal and wouldn’t have any bad intentions, he was, after all, still considered a rival in love.
Handing his woman over to a rival himself, could he not feel conflicted?
But George was the person he trusted the most, and only by entrusting Scarlett to him could he truly be at ease.
"The loyalty you show me, you must also show to Young Madam, George, do you understand what I mean?" Matthew Saxon felt a bit jealous, but he couldn’t help but remind him.
Of course, George understood the underlying meaning of his words.
He couldn’t help but think of Alice Green’s words, and George’s expression darkened for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal. After a few seconds of silence, he slowly said, "Yes, Young Master."
Before leaving, Matthew gave a few more small fragmented instructions, stretching time until it couldn’t be stretched any longer, and then he left.
Scarlett Yates stood outside, saw him wave back at her after checking the tickets, rubbed her tingling nose, and raised her arm to wave back at him.
She stood outside until Matthew Saxon’s figure was no longer visible, then she turned to George and said, "Let’s go. Our plane is about to take off."
"Young Madam, wait a little longer. Miss Nelson hasn’t arrived yet."
Scarlett was taken aback, "Stella is coming?"
When Matthew Saxon suggested having Stella Nelson accompany her abroad, she considered it but eventually refused.
Though she yearned for Stella’s company, given Stella was pregnant and the first three months weren’t stable, she had to dismiss the idea.
George nodded, "The Young Master asked me to contact Miss Nelson, and Miss Nelson agreed to go with you."
"But... why didn’t she tell me?" Scarlett was stunned, her expression a bit bewildered.
"Because I wanted to surprise you!" A playful voice interjected, the woman’s laughter was both charming and pleasant, imbued with feminine allure and a bright cheerfulness.
This voice was unbelievably familiar to Scarlett.
"Stella!" Scarlett was overjoyed, genuinely surprised, turned around, her eyes and face filled with smiles.
She was about to rush over and hug Stella Nelson as before, her hands already outstretched, when she suddenly remembered Stella was pregnant, and dared not rush over recklessly.
Instead, she walked over slowly to Stella, gently hugged her for a moment before letting go.
"Stella, how come you’re here? Weren’t you..." Scarlett turned her head and glanced at George, then pulled Stella aside and whispered, "You should be staying home and nurturing the baby in the first three months. The flight is at least ten hours, can you handle it?"
"I’m not that delicate." Stella Nelson was in full tourist gear, a baseball cap on her head, wearing a big down jacket, canvas shoes, and surprisingly, a pair of skinny jeans.
Seeing her in skinny jeans, Scarlett was stunned again, "You’re even wearing skinny jeans, Stella, you really are..."
"What am I? Not considering the baby in my belly at all?" Stella gently laughed, touched her belly lightly and nonchalantly said, "It’s early now, so when I can travel beautifully, I want to look gorgeous. When the belly gets bigger, I won’t be able to wear many of the clothes I love now, so I want to cherish this time when I can still wear them."
