"Do you mean Arcanebar Shop?" Mrs. Talbot asked.
"Yes, Mrs. Talbot, you know that a bag there is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars." Scarlett said in a jealous tone. Martin had gone too far. Obviously, she liked him so much, but he said something so harsh to her.
Mrs. Talbot nodded slightly and smiled, "I see. Scarlett, thank you for coming to tell me about this. I've been worried because Martin has no girlfriend. Now I can sleep at ease."
"He's such a dull man. Since he can buy the girl a bag, it means that he likes her very much." The shopping mall was owned by the Alwynn family. Giada had everything she wanted, so she might not ask Martin to pay for a bag.
Scarlett was stunned. Words couldn't describe how shocked she was. Mrs. Talbot's reaction was different from what she had expected.
Wasn't she angry?
Were she and Martin's father willing to accept a girl from an ordinary family?
Didn't Martin need to marry a rich girl to help with his business?
Although Martin's company developed well, it was on the upswing. If he married her, he could know her father's business partners and become more successful.
But what was Mrs. Talbot thinking?
Scarlett nodded with a stiff smile, "Perhaps."
When Scarlett came out of Martin's house, she looked gloomier.
After getting on the car, she kicked the car door hard. The pain from her toes couldn't relieve her anger.
Seeing that she was furious, her assistant comforted her, "Scarlett, calm down. You have to act in the drama tomorrow morning. Everyone says this drama will definitely be famous. After all, the script is very nice. When you become popular, how could Giada be qualified to go against you?"
Scarlett thought about it and agreed with her, "Let's go back."
But why did she feel so upset and wronged?
Martin had just sent Giada back. As soon as he entered the apartment, his mother called him.
He sat on the sofa before answering it, "Mom."
"Martin, haven't you slept yet?" Mrs. Talbot's tone was very gentle.
"No, mom. I got home just now. What's the matter?" Martin said while opening the curtains in the living room.
"Oh, nothing. I'm just afraid that you'll be too busy with work, so I called you to tell you that you should go to bed early."
"Mom, the company is going well. Don't worry." Martin stood by the window, and the faint smile on his handsome face was reflected on the glass.
"Martin, it seems that you're in a good mood." Mrs. Talbot asked with a smile. She could feel his light tone through the phone.
"Mom, I'm indeed very delighted now." Martin said with a smile.
"Alright, remember to go to bed early."
Hanging up the phone, Martin still stood by the window. The night sky in summer was particularly beautiful.
He was the happiest that day.
After waiting for so many years, he finally let Giada know how he felt towards her.
The first thing Giada did when she got home was to take a shower. After putting on a pink nightdress, she went to bed immediately and sent a message to Alice. Over the years, the only person she kept in touch with was Alice.
They were close friends.
"Alice, a handsome boy confessed his love for me today. I'm so happy!"
"Gia, why did you meet Frank again? I told you that he was a jerk."
Giada was speechless.
"No, Alice. The person who confessed his love to me was my primary school classmate, Martin. He had been abroad for many years. He looks so handsome after he grew up."
Eden's eyes flashed, and she did not answer her question, "Does your cooperation with Martin go well?"
"Yeah." Although there was an incident, it did not affect her work.
"That's good. Sleep early. I think Martin is a good boy. I asked Dean to investigate his past. He works very hard and has a good character. If you want to be in love, you can choose him as your boyfriend."
Giada paused and asked curiously, "Mom, if I really like him, will you agree to let me marry into the Talbot family?"
Eden smiled, "Our family doesn't need you and your brothers to get married to consolidate our power. Your father and I only want you to be with someone who likes you and you like. As for your husband's family background, we don't care about it."
Eden got up, patted her shoulder and turned to leave.
Giada looked at her back and sighed slightly, "Alas!"
Even her mother could tell that Martin was a good man.
She ate a few mouthfuls of cake before thinking of the phone that she had thrown away.
She finished the cake quickly and picked up her phone. Alice had sent her a few more messages.
"Gia, this man's facial proportion is really perfect, and he must be tall."
"Ha-ha, little girl, how does it feel to fall in love? Is it wonderful?"
Giada couldn't help patting her hot face.
It turned out that this was the feeling of falling in love.
She was very nervous but expectant, and her heart was filled with sweetness and uneasiness. Such a feeling was very complicated.
"Alice, I don't know what to say, but I feel pretty good. When will you come to River City?"
