Chapter 141
She pretended to be busy wiping the water stains off the table, quickly hiding the bitterness in her eyes.
“Oh, I see. How’s everything going for you overseas, senior p>
Henry Dales thought seriously for a moment, then smiled, “Hmm, not bad p>
Really not bad?
He let out a mocking laugh in his heart.
Saying such things repeatedly, he even deceived himself.
But so what?
The path was chosen by himself, and the moment he made that decision, there was no turning back.
Regret or not, what difference does it make?
However winding and difficult this path is, he must press on.
He bears the entire burden of the Dales Family’s survival, he has no choice, he has to do this.
Henry Dales’s eyes dimmed for just a moment, quickly returning to normal,
He gazed gently into Scarlett Yates’s eyes, “Scarlett, I heard from Stella you went for an internship at Saint Mercy. It’s the place you’ve always dreamed of joining, congratulations p>
Scarlett Yates was taken aback, “You’re still in contact with Stella p>
Henry nodded lightly, “Yes, Stella told me a lot about you p>
Saying this, Henry’s gaze shifted slightly as he hesitated for a few seconds and asked, “You moved into the Saxon Family home p>
Scarlett Yates was taken aback again.
Stella Nelson, that big mouth!
She knew perfectly well Henry didn’t like her, so why bring her up unnecessarily!
Not interested in discussing this, she replied casually, “Yes, because of work, I have to stay at the Saxon Family home for a few days p>
“You and Matthew Saxon Henry frowned as if it was hard to bring up, “I’ve seen some news while abroad. Are you really together p>
Scarlett instinctively wanted to deny it.
That denial was on the tip of her tongue, but it transformed into another sentence, “Yes, I’m dating him p>
Henry looked at her incredulously.
Scarlett smiled and added, “You seem quite surprised, senior p>
Henry remained silent for a long time, his voice becoming hoarse, “Matthew Saxon… is not a good person, Scarlett. You’re different from the women around him, you’ll be at a disadvantage p>
It must have been her imagination.
She just thought she saw a fleeting trace of pity in Henry’s eyes.
What was he pitying? That she didn’t cherish herself, to be with someone like Matthew Saxon?
Matthew Saxon had a bad reputation.
Any woman who had been with him didn’t end up with a better reputation either.
Would he also think she was a gold-digging woman seeking vanity?
A thousand thoughts flashed through her mind, but in the end, she just found it laughable.
What kind of woman she is, what does it have to do with him?
“You’re overthinking, senior.” She wore a nonchalant smile, dismissively saying, “I’m no different from those women, it’s you who thinks too highly of me p>
“Scarlett, you’re different.” Henry’s smile gradually faded, no longer the familiar expression, unusually serious, “You can’t handle Matthew Saxon’s tricks, you’ll be hurt p>
He seemed very concerned about her, to care about her.
But Scarlett knew, this concern and care, wasn’t just for her.
The ever-kind Henry Dales cared about and treated everyone so kindly.
He kept saying he was afraid Matthew Saxon would hurt her, but the person who hurt her the most was Henry himself.
Suddenly, Scarlett felt a surge of anger.
She was really fed up with his nice-guy act, if he didn’t like her, then he shouldn’t show such care for her.
