Chapter 292
“Knox, stop making a fuss.” Matthew Saxon frowned, holding Alice Green as he headed towards the elevator.
Knox Simmons’ face darkened as he blocked his path and said coldly, “Matthew, how long are you going to protect this woman? She has nothing but malicious intentions, aiming to turn the Saxon Family upside down—can’t you see that p>
Matthew Saxon looked at him expressionlessly. “Move aside p>
Knox Simmons’ face turned livid with rage. “If she’s the only one in your heart, then what is Scarlett to you? If you don’t love her, then let her go p>
“Let her go p>
Matthew suddenly sneered, his eyes coldly resting on Scarlett Yates with a mocking curl of his lips, “Her legs are on her own body. If she wants to leave, do you think I can force her to stay p>
“I don’t care what games you’re playing, but it’s about time it’s over. I don’t have time to keep playing along with you p>
“Scarlett Yates, I really underestimated you. In less than a day, you’ve got the young master of the Simmons Family calling you his sister. Gaining such a powerful ally, are you pleased with yourself p>
“No matter how pleased, it can’t beat you, Second Young Master p>
Scarlett Yates smiled gently and glanced at Alice Green in his arms, “With a beauty in your embrace, Second Young Master must be quite proud p>
Oh, so that’s how he sees it.
Whether she leaves or stays, he no longer cares.
Then, he probably doesn’t care about that contract either.
Ever since Alice Green jumped into the sea, his whole being, even his soul, was taken away by her.
Yes, something you almost lost—once you get it back, can you feel the same as before?
Alice Green’s fall into the sea stripped away all his feigned indifference, and he couldn’t put on the facade anymore.
Scarlett Yates suddenly realized that the contract between her and Matthew Saxon appeared to be coming to an end.
The one-year agreement had only lasted two months and was already about to terminate.
So be it, the sooner it ends, the sooner they exit each other’s lives.
From then on, she’ll be an ordinary little nurse, and he’ll remain the high and mighty young master of a prestigious family.
They were people from two different worlds and should never have had any intersection.
Matthew Saxon squinted his eyes, a mysterious light flickering in them, “You’re still so sharp-tongued p>
“The Second Young Master always says I’m not smart. If I’m not at least quick-witted in front of you, won’t I be disliked by you to the bone p>
Scarlett Yates leaned lazily against Knox Simmons, suddenly looking up to give him a sweet smile and speaking in a honeyed voice, “Brother, didn’t you say last night you’d take me to the island across the way? The weather’s so good today; shall we go now p>
“You want to go now p>
“Yes p>
“Alright, wherever Scarlett wants to go, I’ll go with you.” Knox Simmons smiled, fondly patting her head with adoration and looking down at her tenderly.
As soon as he reached out to pat her on the head, he felt a cold gaze piercing him, the temperature around seemed to drop several degrees because of it.
He looked up and met Matthew Saxon’s dark, icy eyes.
Knox Simmons found it amusing.
Matthew Saxon was holding Alice Green yet was furious about his closeness to Scarlett Yates—what did he mean by that?
He had already made his choice, choosing the woman in his arms.
So why should he still care about Scarlett Yates, whom he abandoned?
Knox Simmons allowed Matthew Saxon to glare at him coldly. His smile remained unchanged as his large hand on Scarlett Yates’ head made an even more affectionate gesture.
