Chapter 104: Chapter 104: I Want to Have a Few Words with You

The leaves of the camphor trees rustle softly.

On that bench beneath the tree sits only one person, surrounded by silence, with just the sound of cicadas.

An indescribable emotion suddenly arises in her heart.

She suddenly feels that the man under the tree is lonely and solitary.

As soon as this thought emerges, Scarlett Yates immediately despises her own arrogance.

How could she think someone like Matthew Saxon would be lonely and solitary? Has she lost her mind?

A wealthy young master who gets what he wants and changes women like clothes, how could he possibly be lonely?

She must have had something wrong in her head just now to have had such a ridiculous thought.

She chuckles self-deprecatingly, shakes her head, throws those chaotic thoughts out of her mind, turns around, and leaves with large strides without looking back.

--

Scarlett Yates is terrible with directions.

She could get the direction wrong even in places she has visited countless times, let alone having only recently arrived at the Saxon Family estate.

She has wandered in the Saxon Family garden before, but it was only within a close range; she didn’t dare go further, afraid she’d get lost.

She follows the route she came by to head back.

It seems like this was the path in her memory, but as she walked, the route suddenly seemed wrong.

The view ahead turned unfamiliar, and she reached a place she hadn’t been before.

By now, most of the servants were resting.

The gardener wouldn’t choose to work during the hottest time either.

So...

Not a soul was around except for herself.

Scarlett Yates spun in place, looking miserably at the three paths in front of her.

Each one looked much like where she had just walked; which one should she choose...

"Miss Yates."

A woman’s voice suddenly sounded behind her, somewhat familiar.

Scarlett Yates jumped, turned around, and was startled again when she saw who it was, "Miss Green..."

Alice Green’s gentle face spread a soft, subtle smile. She stepped forward, came up to Scarlett Yates, and looked at her, saying, "Miss Yates, if you have no other matters at the moment, I’d like to chat with you."

"You want to chat with me?" Scarlett Yates froze a little, knitting her brows in confusion, "What does Miss Green want to chat about?"

Barring unexpected circumstances, she guessed Alice Green wanted to talk to her about Matthew Saxon.

Alice Green stared at her for a few seconds, the corners of her lips lifted slightly, responding off-topic, "Why isn’t Miss Yates with Matthew? I heard from Maxwell that your relationship is so strong, you’re glued together every day."

Glued together...

Upon hearing this adjective, Scarlett Yates felt a jolt as goosebumps rose.

She absolutely couldn’t believe such an affectionate term would come from Maxwell Saxon’s mouth.

Her guess was indeed correct.

Alice Green had come to her to discuss matters about Matthew Saxon.

But as a woman about to marry his brother, what did she plan to talk to her about?

Scarlett Yates originally had no intention of getting involved in the messy affair between the two brothers and one woman, but the heroine of the messy affair had come to her doorstep, she couldn’t well refuse...

After all, listening wouldn’t harm her, so she might as well hear what the other party wanted to say.

Thinking this, she deliberately put on a quite forlorn look, gazing plaintively at Alice Green, "He’s in a bad mood, wants to be alone."

Seeing the full look of "grudging wife" on her face, Alice Green’s mouth lifted in apparent cheerfulness.

She eyed Scarlett Yates, a hint of disdain showing in her eyes, "I heard from Maxwell that Miss Yates’ parents and Uncle Saxon arranged a childhood engagement, and Uncle Saxon, being a man of his word, plans for you to marry Matthew after you graduate."
