Chapter 967: What Does He Really Want to Ask?
Scarlett Yates was dumbfounded, and a few seconds later, her face turned bright red again.It turns out they’re going to a hot spring!
So, from the start, it was just her indulging in wishful thinking and all sorts of wild imaginings?
But if it weren’t for him saying so many suggestive things, how would she have thought in that direction?
Scarlett felt an ashamed and angry urge to dig a hole and hide herself, feeling she had lost face.
But Matthew Saxon wasn’t planning to let her off the hook just yet; he deliberately let out a long "Hmm," lifted Scarlett’s chin, and gazed at her with his enchanting Peach Blossom Eyes, amusement dancing in them: "Scarlett Yates, you didn’t misunderstand me, thinking I want to..."
"Cough cough cough." Scarlett choked again.
Matthew gently patted her back, a teasing smile in his eyes, and said with concern, "Why are you choking again? If you’re disappointed that we’re only going to a hot spring, after the hot spring, we can also..."
Scarlett quickly cut him off: "I’m not disappointed at all, going to a hot spring is great, really great! After we finish eating, we’ll go to the hot spring!"
Afraid Matthew would continue on that topic, she didn’t wait for him to speak. She searched her brain and immediately found a new topic: "By the way, how is Uncle Saxon doing now?"
Matthew didn’t speak, looking at her with a half-smiling expression.
Scarlett felt a strange sense of guilt under his gaze, like he could see right through her.
"When will he be back? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, and I don’t know how he’s doing now." She continued, shamelessly under his teasing gaze.
"Dad’s health is fine now, just still quite weak. We’ll bring him back when he’s a bit better."
"Of course..." Matthew’s lips curled, a mischievous smile tugging at his Peach Blossom Eyes, as he continued slowly: "By the time we officially hold the wedding, he’ll be able to make it."
"Oh, that’s good, that’s good."
Speaking of marriage, Matthew suddenly wiped the teasing expression from his face, looked down at Scarlett, and asked seriously: "Scarlett, do you really not want to get married?"
They say a woman’s heart is hard to fathom, like a needle in the sea.
But sometimes a man’s heart is the same.
Scarlett didn’t know why Matthew was asking about this again.
After that unpleasant incident in the morning, Scarlett had already dismissed the idea of postponing the marriage.
Now her thought was to go along with whatever Matthew wanted.
Initially, she didn’t really mind marrying him, she just didn’t want to marry so soon.
After dismissing the idea of delaying the marriage, Matthew asked again if she didn’t want to get married...
What exactly did he want to ask?
Was he testing her? If she revealed her true feelings, would he get angry again?
Scarlett didn’t answer him immediately.
She thought it over carefully, then pondered Matthew’s intentions before responding: "If you think it’s better to get married now, then let’s get married now. Matthew, I admit that when you came to A City to find me and told me you wanted to marry me for Uncle Saxon’s sake, I didn’t truly want to marry you then."
After a pause, feeling his firm grip on her hands, Scarlett met his eyes and continued: "But later, after the misunderstandings between us were cleared up and you proposed to me again, I truly wanted to marry you then."
