Will the Aloof Billionaire Divorce Today?-Chapter 710: I Can’t Forget Henry Dales

"Even if you don’t need it, I still have to apologize." She bit her lip, her expression stiff and unnatural.

"What do you mean by that?" His phoenix eyes narrowed, the gaze suddenly cold.

"When I asked to break up with you, I didn’t know about Alexis Denton, Matthew Saxon. The problem between us isn’t about Alexis Denton." She endured the cold air above her head, biting her lip, "So, whether I misunderstood you or not, my feelings won’t change."

Matthew Saxon’s face finally turned cold: "You still refuse to come back to me?"

She pulled her stiff lips, struggling to speak: "I’m sorry."

"Damn it, I don’t want to hear this sorry. What do you think I’ve been doing all this for? Just to make you believe me, to clear the misunderstanding about me?"

"I’m sorry, Young Master’s favor for a small person like me is much appreciated, but I really can’t accept it. Young Master, just think of it as choosing the wrong person."

"Scarlett Yates, what are you hesitating about?" Matthew Saxon’s eyes burned as he forcefully gripped her frail shoulders, shaking her, "Speak out, whatever you can’t solve, I can help you with it."

Scarlett Yates hung her head, not daring to look at him, her lips bleeding from being bitten: "No special reason, I just don’t like you. I also tried dating you, thinking that if someone new came into my life, I could quickly forget him and not yearn for him anymore, but I still can’t do it."

She clenched her fists, licking away the blood on her lips, slowly straightening her stiff neck, raising her chin: "I still can’t forget him, I can’t even forget him in my dreams, I don’t want to deceive myself anymore."

"What did you say?" Matthew Saxon’s hand on her shoulder froze, stunned, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

He looked at Scarlett Yates as if she were an incredible monster.

"I know you are a very proud person, which is why I have been reluctant to tell you the real reason, because once I say it, it will hit your strong self-esteem hard. But now it seems that clarifying things might be better."

The nails dug into her tender palms.

She took a deep breath, raising her face with a stiff smile: "I can’t forget Henry Dales."

"From the moment I saw him, I liked him. More than three years have passed, and my feelings for him have never changed. I tried to like you, but not liking you is just not liking you. I’m sorry, I know you’ll be angry hearing this, but you forced me to say it."

"Young Master, you have excellent qualifications, wealthy and powerful, good-looking, and generous with women. You have many qualities that attract the opposite sex. I also thought, being with a man like you would give me face, and I wouldn’t have to work hard on my own. In many ways, there’s no downside, so why not?"

She paused here, her lips curving into an apologetic smile: "But after trying it for a while, I found I really can’t accept you. Although in most women’s eyes you’re great, in my eyes, you can’t compare to Henry Dales at all."

"In terms of temperament, character, integrity, sense of responsibility, ambition, you can’t match him in any area."
