Lambert nodded, "That's right."
Lambert knew about Scott's past relationship with Sally during the investigation.
"So, do you want to cooperate with the Scott family?"
"I want to buy the land from them," Lambert said.
It was about the land again. Jessica had asked her to be the intermediary for the land and went to see Mr. Zamani before. Now Lambert came to her for Scott and the land.
It seemed that she could not avoid the land.
Although she was an executive at the Zamani Group, she was only responsible for the art area. She didn't know much about other things, nor did she get involved.
Sally smiled and said, "Then do you know the relationship between us and want to know him through me?"
"If it's not convenient for you, then forget it. I'll find another way."
The waiter knocked on the door of the room to serve dishes, which interrupted their conversation and gave Sally enough time to think.
"It's not a big deal. Although I broke up with him, after all, we used to be playmates. We still keep the friendship."
Sally didn't have many friends in Birmingham, and Lambert was one of them. They had been cooperating happily in the past. Since Lambert had said that, she couldn't refuse.
Besides, if she deliberately avoided Scott, she would feel a little intentional, as if she still cared about him.
Lambert asked again, "Will you feel awkward by that?"
"It's nothing." She began to gobble the dishes on the plate without hesitation.
When she got home in the evening, Sally wanted to call Scott first and arrange a meeting for Lambert.
She searched her address list and couldn't find Scott's number. She didn't know when she had deleted it, and she had no memory at all.
It was ridiculous. She used to think that she would never forget his number. At that time, it seemed that everything about him had been carved in her heart. But it had been only a few years, and she had forgotten all about him.
So the vows between lovers were nothing as time went by.
At night, Martin went to her place again.
Sally asked calmly, "Do you have Scott's phone number?"
Martin was stunned for a moment. "What? You want to see him?"
"Did he come to Birmingham? Why didn't you mention it?"
"Why should I? Didn't he contact you?"
"I have no relationship with him anymore. Why should he contact me?"
"It's good for you to know that. From now on, you are my girlfriend."
Martin then held her in his arms.
Sally struggled to break free and said, "I'm not his or your girlfriend. I'm just me. I'm the only one in this world. Who wants to be a subordinate to you stinking men?"
"I'm also the only one, so we're destined to be a couple."
Sally was reluctant to talk to him anymore. When she got Scott's phone number, she dialed it directly.
It had been a long time until the phone was picked up.
"Hello." It was a sweet woman's voice.
Sally thought Martin deliberately gave her the wrong number and asked carefully, "Is this Mr. Scott's number?"
"Yes, you must be Sally."
Sally was a little stunned. She didn't know who was that 'sweet voice'. And the other side had already uttered her name as if she had been seen naked. She felt very insecure.
"Excuse me, who are you?"
