Chapter 85: Chapter 85: A One-Year Deadline

She thought, Matthew Saxon felt the same about her.

Both deeply disliked each other, if they really got married, it would undoubtedly plunge themselves into deep trouble, enduring inhuman torment from then on.

She put away her playful expression, looked down at him, "Shall we talk?"

Matthew Saxon curled his lips with amusement, "Talk again?"

Scarlett Yates showed a struggling expression, hesitated for a few seconds, and nodded, "It’s about our fake dating..."

He wasn’t surprised at all, everything was within his expectations, he curled his lips and ordered matter-of-factly, "I need to go for a walk in the garden."

Scarlett Yates walked behind him, and following his instructions, wheeled him out through the back door.

The Saxon Family’s garden was extremely beautiful.

A small bridge over flowing water, pavilions and towers, at first glance, it looked like the residence of a noble family from ancient times.

However, at this moment, Scarlett Yates had no mind to appreciate the scenery.

Under a large canopy of shade, a cool breeze blew from the pond opposite.

Matthew Saxon half-opened his eyes, lazily gazing at the lotus flowers in the pond, and small fragments of light that danced on his jade-like face were ethereal.

"Say it." He sounded as if he had just woken up, his voice was lazy too.

Scarlett Yates took a deep breath, her mind still a bit chaotic, yet her tone was calm, "I can accept your proposal."

"Oh?" He seemed to have smiled, his lips lightly twitched.

"A year as the deadline." Once she spoke the hardest line to say, whatever followed became much easier.

She picked off a leaf that fell on her shoulder, squinting slightly as she shared her plan, "For this year we pretend to date, and a year later, as you mentioned, break up citing incompatibility."

This year was also the time Roy Saxon gave her.

A year later, if neither she nor Matthew Saxon wished to marry, then the marriage contract between the Saxon Family and the Yates Family would be nullified.

A year could seem long or short.

Anyway, after a year, she would have no connections with the Saxon Family.

Thinking about it, it’s actually quite good.

She was an ordinary person to begin with, without grand ambitions, stories about marrying into a wealthy family and changing fate wouldn’t happen to her.

"Have you finally figured it out?"

"It’s just for a year’s time, if you can bear it, so can I." With her decision made, Scarlett Yates’s tone became much more cheerful.

Bear it?

Matthew Saxon’s face went cold involuntarily.

That damned woman actually referred to being with him as enduring.

He sneered, "Don’t act so resigned now just to go back on your word, clinging to me shamelessly later."

Scarlett Yates looked up, smiled, "Young Master, what dreams are you having in broad daylight?"

This woman, her way with words was becoming increasingly skilled.

Although he didn’t like her, he found her much more interesting than other women.

Just daring to talk back to him time and again made her different from other women.

If you’ve seen too many obedient, soft-hearted women, it becomes dull; occasionally encountering someone different, as a pastime for idle moments, is actually quite pleasant.

"During this year, we’ll be boyfriend and girlfriend on the surface, and if necessary, we can cooperate and act, but privately, we’ll live our own lives, not interfering with each other, without truly entering each other’s lives."

After Scarlett Yates finished speaking, she sought his opinion, "How does the Young Master feel about it?"
