Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 312 People on the Same Boat

She knew Alice Green was very important to him.

Even without mentioning these stories, she was already aware of this fact.

The sweet tea suddenly turned bitter.

After she struggled to swallow the tea she just drank, she put down the teacup.

The remaining tea was difficult to swallow.

"At first, I took her away because she reminded me of Little Tail."

"But actually, Alice and Little Tail are not alike at all. They have entirely different personalities. Little Tail is like a vibrant sunflower that makes people feel warm and happy when around her."

"Alice is melancholic, sensitive, and fragile; she and Little Tail are completely different kinds of people."

Matthew Saxon did not directly answer her question.

He continued to tell his story, "She followed me for three years, and during those three years, I tried my best to fulfill all her wishes. Although she wasn’t like Little Tail, she needed my protection. It was no trouble for me, and since I was just bored at the time, I brought her into the entertainment industry."

"I originally planned to stop taking care of her once she could take care of herself. She accidentally learned of my plan and angrily went abroad for two months. There, she met my elder brother. After returning to the country, she was brought home by my brother. You know the rest of the story; they decided to have a flash marriage."

Scarlett Yates’s emotions were like riding a roller coaster, going up and down with his words.

She couldn’t guess what he meant, and she had never felt this tormented before.

"Young Master, did you ever like Alice Green?" 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

She had always thought he liked Alice.

But after he told her so much, she wasn’t so sure anymore.

Repeatedly guessing someone’s thoughts but never succeeding felt utterly frustrating.

She didn’t want to let her heart suffer anymore and straightforwardly asked the question she most wanted to know.

Matthew Saxon was initially stunned, then sighed deeply, rubbed his forehead with a headache, "Scarlett Yates, I’ve said so much, apparently for nothing."

This silly woman, does he have to say it directly for her to understand?

He looked at her with an expression as if seeing an idiot, "If she was a woman I liked, could I just watch her marry Maxwell Saxon?"

Suddenly, it was like a flower blossomed in Scarlett Yates’s heart.

Her heartbeat started to uncontrollably throb so intensely that she could feel her chest vibrating with the rapid and powerful thudding.

"But, although you didn’t stop her, you didn’t want her to marry Maxwell Saxon." Her voice was very low, her head lowered, not wanting him to see her abnormal display, she began to slowly sip the remaining half cup of tea.

It was indeed strange.

The tea that had earlier tasted bitter suddenly became sweet and delicious again.

"Yes, I didn’t want her to marry Maxwell Saxon."

"Why?"

"You want to know?" Matthew paused, looked up, and smiled lightly at her.

"This concerns a huge secret. If I tell you, we’ll be in the same boat, sharing any risks. Scarlett Yates, do you still want to hear it?"

"No! You better not say it." Scarlett Yates refused decisively.

Without even a second of hesitation.

In matters involving risks, no matter how interested she was, she didn’t dare listen.
