Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 477: The Fear of Gain and Loss
Scarlett Yates’ heart tightened.
Under normal circumstances, she would definitely be able to tell that Matthew Saxon was teasing her, his eyes revealing undisguised playfulness, his lips curved with a devilish charm. Clearly, he was teasing her for fun as usual, but right now, Scarlett Yates was already consumed with wild speculation. With this remark from Matthew Saxon, her heart sank as if it had plunged into an ice cellar.
Instantly, her heart seemed to be soaked from inside out with ice water, completely frigid.
She didn’t pay attention to Matthew Saxon’s expression; she just heard him say that, and her expression immediately changed.
Her face darkened, her eyes suddenly turned cold, she clenched her fists and said, "It’s still not too late to regret now, I won’t cling onto you."
After saying this, she turned away angrily.
She thought she could announce breaking up with Stella Nelson tonight.
Indeed, they were true best friends, even breaking up in the same day. Compared to Stella Nelson’s scumbag boyfriend, her situation seemed no better.
Just less than a week after Matthew Saxon officially confessed to her, this relationship, which was not looked upon favorably from the start, ended abruptly.
"So fragile under teasing?"
She heard a helpless sigh behind her. Matthew Saxon pulled her back, a smile playing on his lips, looking down at her face, which was darker than a pot’s bottom, and laughed, "I haven’t finished speaking yet, why are you angry?"
Scarlett Yates shook off his hand in anger. "What else is there to say?"
Just that sentence about regretting, wasn’t it enough to convey his meaning?
Was he about to attack her like the scumbag did earlier?
Scarlett Yates tends to think extremely.
Whenever she encountered something bad, she always liked to think of the worst, and she liked to script and direct a scene herself, turning something small into an unforgivable event.
This extreme thought process became more severe after she fell for Matthew Saxon.
The so-called fear of loss must be like this.
Because she cared too much about someone, she paid that much attention to every word he said.
Scarlett Yates remembered reading a book where there was a paragraph saying those who completely give their heart to their partners in love often end up loving painfully, while the loved ones also feel burdened.
She understood that truth, but ultimately couldn’t control her heart.
Matthew Saxon sighed softly, "I just regret knowing you’re so skilled. Should’ve let you deal with that guy chasing you on the island yourself, but you’re just overthinking again?" 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
"You’re talking about that?" Scarlett Yates was taken aback.
Matthew Saxon raised his eyebrows helplessly, "What else did you think I meant?"
Scarlett Yates was puzzled again, then blushed with embarrassment.
She misunderstood him.
But how could she tell him the truth?
How could she tell him she thought he regretted being with her so she got very angry and even planned to go drinking with Stella Nelson?
Fortunately, just when she was feeling awkward, Stella Nelson arrived in time.
"Scarlett, why are you here?" Stella Nelson had stopped crying, though her eyes were swollen like light bulbs, but the corner of her eyes were dry, and the tear stains on her face had been cleaned away.
She looked at Scarlett Yates, then at Matthew Saxon, a complex look flashed in her eyes, like she wanted to ask Scarlett Yates something but couldn’t say it aloud. Her lips moved with an expression of wanting to speak but hesitating.
