Chapter 291

Suddenly, a tinge of heartache welled up within him.

Real heartache.

Scarlett Yates didn’t push him away.

Her body leaned weakly towards him as she turned her head and gave him a grateful smile.

At the moment when they were leaning against each other, their eyes meeting, Matthew Saxon’s gaze darkened, and his face turned somber.

But it was only for an instant, soon returning to normal.

As if his change of expression just now was merely someone else’s illusion.

His hand around Alice Green’s shoulder tightened unconsciously, causing Alice to furrow her brows and let out a light cry.

She looked up in surprise, following Matthew’s complex and indistinguishable gaze, and her heart suddenly tightened, as if discovering something terrifying, a hint of panic appearing in her eyes.

“Matthew She fearfully pressed her body closer to him, trembling violently in his arms, “I suddenly feel so uncomfortable, I’m so cold, can we leave here quickly? The air in the hospital makes me feel so stifled p>

Matthew seemed not to hear what she was saying.

His eyes remained tightly fixed on Scarlett Yates and Knox Simmons.

“Matthew, Matthew Alice grew more afraid, calling him again several times.

Just what was he looking at?

That woman, or Knox Simmons?

He was watching so intently, so focused that even though she had called him several times, he didn’t react.

She even told him that her body was very uncomfortable.

Had it been in the ward, as soon as she said this, he would express concern and care for her unreservedly.

But ever since the woman named Scarlett Yates appeared, he became abnormal.

His eyes could only see that woman.

How strange.

He was right beside her, so why did she feel such fear of losing him?

Just because he looked at that woman twice, just because of his sudden emotional change just now.

Alice didn’t know what she was afraid of; in every aspect, she was confident in winning.

That little blond girl wasn’t even worth her concern.

After calling him several more times, Matthew expressionlessly retracted his gaze and looked down at her, “What’s wrong, Alice p>

Alice’s face was filled with fear, her voice trembling, “Matthew, can we leave here quickly? I don’t like staying in the hospital, I’m afraid of this place p>

Matthew was silent for a few seconds and nodded, “Okay, we’ll leave here p>

This normal phrase felt like a promise to Alice, making her breathe a long sigh of relief.

She bit her lip, “What about Miss Yates p>

Matthew gave Scarlett Yates a cold glance, then spoke indifferently, “I’ll send you back first p>

“But, but I’ll be afraid by myself.” Alice clutched him tightly, terrified he would disappear.

“Miss Green is afraid, the person she should be looking for is her fiancé. Holding onto someone else’s man like this, do you have no shame at all?” Knox Simmons wasn’t polite to her.

He had long disliked Alice, but due to Matthew’s presence, he couldn’t do anything against her, only manage to say a few harsh words to vent his anger.

Alice shrank into Matthew’s arms like a startled bird.

Knox saw this and sneered even more coldly, “Miss Green, should I give Maxwell Saxon a call then? Tell him his fiancée is too scared to be alone and have him come accompany you, what do you say p>
