Chapter 439
Scarlett Yates reacted as if she had been electrocuted. Although he hadn’t even touched her yet, she overreacted by stepping back, then stared at him with her large, bright eyes, biting her lips repeatedly.
Matthew Saxon paused for a moment, then crossed his arms and squinted his peach blossom eyes at her. “Scarlett Yates, what do you want to say to me p>
He already sensed that this woman wouldn’t say anything to brighten his mood.
Scarlett Yates clenched her fists, biting her lips hard enough to leave marks, closed her eyes for a moment, hardened her heart, and blurted out what was in her mind, “I want to end the one-year agreement p>
“Say that again.” After a few seconds of silence, Matthew Saxon’s face instantly darkened.
Sure enough, the words from this damn woman’s mouth were extremely vile.
“I said Scarlett Yates met his gaze, which looked as if he wanted to devour her, and said through gritted teeth, “I want to end the contract, Matthew Saxon. I don’t want to act with you anymore p>
“You want to breach the contract?” Matthew Saxon laughed coldly, advancing a step forward, his peach blossom eyes flashing dangerously. “Scarlett Yates, have I ever told you that breaching a contract with me would bring a heavy price p>
“The contract was originally signed just to prevent Uncle Saxon’s suspicion. As long as I can make him truly believe that I don’t want to marry you, what’s wrong with ending the contract early?” She raised her head, bravely meeting his gaze.
She spoke all the words she had prepared, “I’ll tell Uncle Saxon that it was me who had a change of heart and found someone I like, so I can’t marry you. By then, Uncle Saxon won’t blame you p>
“It seems like you’ve planned everything out?” The squinting peach blossom eyes exuded a piercing chill.
“Yes, I’ll take all the responsibility on myself and bear all the mistakes p>
He curled his lips into a cold smile, “Oh? What else? You might as well tell me everything p>
“Because I’m the one proposing the end of the contract, it’s my breach, so as the breaching party, I will return everything you gave me before p>
His eyes also filled with a trace of cold smile, suppressing the urge to punish this damn woman physically, he nodded, “Very well, anything else? Keep talking p>
“Also… I hope that after the contract ends, we’ll go our separate ways, and neither of us will disturb the other.” To be honest, being stared at so venomously by those cold and dark eyes for so long, the little courage Scarlett Yates had accumulated under impulse was almost depleted.
Why did he have to look at her like this? As if she were an enemy.
“Scarlett Yates, are you saying you want to sever ties with me and be strangers from now on?” He asked in a low voice, his gaze cold but his tone fairly calm.
Scarlett Yates hesitated for a few seconds, under his terrifying gaze, she slowly nodded. “We… we’re originally from two different worlds, it’s better to be strangers p>
“Two different worlds Matthew Saxon repeated her words in a low voice, then smiled again, “Alright, then tell me, who is from the same world as me p>
She swallowed, suddenly feeling a bit nervous.
Why did he have to use such a strange gaze to look at her? Wasn’t she saying the right things?
She had already said that she would take all responsibility and consequences, what else was he dissatisfied with?
In the beginning, he set up the contract to get rid of her.
