Chapter 890: The Higher You Stand, the Harder You Fall

Scarlett Yates was confused, and looked at him for clarification: "Why?"Once Maxwell Saxon gains the support of all the shareholders, wouldn’t Seymour belong to him at that point?

And that is Maxwell Saxon’s ultimate goal.

Wouldn’t it be too late to act then?

Henry Dales curled his lips into a smile, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Scarlett, do you know what the most ruthless way to strike someone is?"

Seeing her bewildered expression, Henry smiled again, his gaze becoming meaningful, and said slowly, word by word: "The higher one stands, the harder they fall. If a person suddenly falls from the clouds to the Purgatory Realm, wouldn’t you say that’s the most painful and cruel blow?"

Scarlett blinked, lowered her head to think for a moment, then looked up at Henry.

She seemed to understand now.

This kind of tactic really seemed like Matthew Saxon’s way of doing things.

"Scarlett, if my analysis is correct, Matthew Saxon will make his move in at most a week," Henry said with great certainty.

A week...

A week isn’t long.

Scarlett felt she should trust Henry’s words; his tone was so certain, and in terms of these so-called corporate intrigues, he was much more skilled than she was.

"Senior Brother Dales, is there anything I can do to help him?"

"Since he deliberately fell into Maxwell Saxon’s hands and has his own people lurking there, if he wants any help, there will be someone to pass messages to the outside. You staying safe is the biggest help you can offer him."

"Scarlett, the war between men should be solved by men themselves. What you can do is take care of yourself. Until their battle is over, stay here."

"I will have people keep an eye on the movements over at the Saxon Family. As soon as there is any news, I will inform you immediately."

After careful consideration, Scarlett nodded: "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

"But..." Scarlett said with some reservations, "I won’t stay here. If there is a cheaper hotel nearby, I’ll just stay there. Otherwise, if Senior Sister Wood sees me here, I’m afraid she would misunderstand."

Speaking of which, the place Henry and Rosie Wood lived seemed a bit small.

This apartment was a one-bedroom two-living room, roughly just over fifty square meters, decorated very simply, and there was a purely masculine atmosphere in the room, with almost no traces of female belongings.

Judging by what she knew about Rosie Wood, how could that pampered young lady live in such a small place?

Moreover, Rosie Wood was very fond of all kinds of luxury goods, her everyday outfits were also luxurious and extravagant, so this simple decoration style didn’t suit her taste.

Henry frowned: "Why stay in a hotel? Just stay here."

Somehow, Scarlett felt that his eyes suddenly became a bit dim.

"But..."

Henry knew what she wanted to say and interrupted her: "She doesn’t live here, nor does she know about this place. You can rest easy staying here."

Seeing Scarlett looking at him in surprise, he further explained: "This is my private space. When I want to have some quiet time alone, I come here to stay for a few days. Normally, I don’t live here; you can rest easy staying here. You’re unfamiliar with this area, and besides me, you don’t have any acquaintances. It’s not safe to stay outside. Although Fort City is an international metropolis, the public security here isn’t very good. Even in the city center, people get robbed in broad daylight."
