Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 340: Why do you say I can’t?
How could it be Senior Brother Dales!
She bit her lip and snapped at the man, "You’re lying. Senior Brother Dales wouldn’t resort to such despicable means. You’re trying to stir conflict between the Dales Family and the Saxon Family. Don’t think I’ll believe your lies."
The man didn’t offer more explanation, simply said, "It doesn’t matter whether Miss Yates believes it or not. The future will reveal everything. I’ve said all I needed to say. Take care, Miss Yates. I’m leaving."
With that, he really turned and walked away.
Listening to his footsteps gradually fading away, Scarlett couldn’t help but call out to him, "Wait."
The man stopped, "Anything else, Miss Yates?"
Scarlett was silent for a while before saying, "Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Matthew Saxon about this? Then, wouldn’t your Dales Family have offended the Saxon Family, resulting in a loss for nothing?"
The man smirked with certainty, "Miss Yates, I know you won’t."
Scarlett bit her lip, annoyed, "What makes you think I won’t?"
The man looked at her, smiling slightly, "A woman whom our Young Master values won’t betray him."
"You’re wrong. If he truly valued me, how could he bear to leave me alone on a deserted island?"
"Miss Yates, you’re not standing in the Young Master’s shoes, can’t imagine the weight of his pressure. He didn’t intend to hurt you. But as the sole heir of the Dales Family, he carries heavy responsibilities, hence can’t help but abandon some things."
She indeed did not understand.
She only knew that when one has to hurt another to achieve a certain goal, regardless of the difficulties, it’s not forgivable.
In this world, nine out of ten people live unsatisfactorily.
If everyone uses hardships and pressure as reasons to justify doing disgraceful things, then the world would be in chaos.
She knew Henry Dales had it tough.
As the sole heir of the Dales Family, he carries the heavy burden of revitalizing the family. For a man only twenty-four, this responsibility is too heavy and burdensome.
Yet she still couldn’t comprehend his use of such inferior means to compete with opponents.
In her eyes, Henry Dales should be someone who lives honorably and brightly, no matter the predicament.
In her eyes, Senior Brother Dales has always been that kind of person.
So when she heard that the person who brought her to the deserted island was Henry Dales, besides shock, she felt a deep sense of disappointment and sorrow.
She listened to the man’s footsteps gradually fade away, until they were completely gone.
She couldn’t move, so she could only lay on the ground.
The warm sunshine streamed through the gaps in the leaves, shining down on her motionless body.
Occasionally, the wind blew, rustling the dense leaves above her head. Some fluttered down onto her face, tickling. She wanted to brush them off but had no strength.
After lying there for nearly an hour, her lost strength slowly began to return.
Scarlett sat up from the ground and reached up to remove her blindfold.
Just as she stood up, she saw someone staggering towards her.
Their steps were wobbly, like they were drunk, as if they might tumble to the ground at any moment.
The one walking towards her was Alice Green.
She seemed puzzled about suddenly finding herself on a strange island, looking around as she walked, then turned back, and glared fiercely at Scarlett.
