Chapter 293
He stretched out his arms and pulled Scarlett halfway into his embrace, smiling as he met Matthew Saxon’s icy gaze, and said with a smirk, “Matthew, since you’re going to accompany that woman, I’ll borrow Scarlett for a day p>
“You heard it too, she wants to go to the little island opposite. I’ve just acknowledged this sweetie sister; her requests are like imperial edicts. Sorry, we have to leave first p>
Although Knox Simmons said he was borrowing Scarlett from Matthew Saxon, he didn’t wait for a reply and turned around with Scarlett, stepping into the elevator.
Scarlett no longer looked at Matthew Saxon.
Her body nestled obediently against Knox Simmons, her head buried low, too low for anyone to see her facial expression.
The moment the elevator door closed, Matthew Saxon instinctively wanted to chase after her.
Just as he was about to move, Alice Green’s body suddenly trembled, her lips quivered twice, and then she began to cough violently.
While coughing, she gasped urgently, “Matthew, my head suddenly feels dizzy, I feel like throwing up p>
Her face was scrunched up as if she was in great discomfort, showing a painful expression.
Matthew Saxon’s expression changed, and he slowly retracted the foot he had just stepped out.
He looked at Alice Green’s face, pale and full of pain, then glanced at the elevator that had closed and started moving down, hesitated for a few seconds, and half-embraced, half-supported Alice Green to sit on the bench in the corridor.
Matthew Saxon gazed deeply at Alice Green, “The doctor said your body is already fine p>
Alice Green wasn’t pretending, Matthew Saxon was not stupid, he could see through it.
She often loves using such small tricks to win his sympathy and affection.
In the past, thinking she only wanted to attract his attention and gain his focus, he would indulge her.
But things are different now.
Her status is different than before, which means their relationship can’t return to the past.
Even though, after experiencing the thrilling incident of falling into the sea last night, he couldn’t completely sever ties with her, letting her continue to act wildly was also not what he desired.
“Matthew, I, I She stammered for a long time but couldn’t utter a single word.
Unexpectedly, he exposed her so directly, Alice Green was a bit surprised and stared at him in a daze.
“Both you and I should understand that we cannot return to the past.” Matthew Saxon gently touched her head, his voice soft yet carrying a trace of barely noticeable reproach.
“Later, I will take you back and give your brother a call. You can’t not inform him after such a major incident happened here p>
Alice Green bit her lip hard, her moist eyes timidly gazing at Matthew Saxon, her mouth opened, yet she couldn’t utter a word, her eyes continuously flickering with a look as if she wanted to speak but couldn’t.
“Matthew p>
She seemed ready to cry the next moment, her hoarse and delicate voice already carrying sobs, “You, do you really want to go find Miss Yates p>
“Sorry, I caused another misunderstanding between you, and the third young master, he seems to dislike me a lot. Matthew, am I truly very annoying p>
“What the third young master said is right, I’m about to marry Sintong, I shouldn’t be clinging to you anymore, but, but I really never wanted to monopolize you, I’m just really afraid of losing you p>
As she spoke, tears silently fell down, a drop hitting her pale face devoid of blood, making her appear even more pitiable and fragile.
