Chapter 1170: Ptooey, No Mention of Death Allowed
Only by staying by his side can she truly feel at ease.For some reason, she thought of last night’s dream again. Although Matthew Saxon kept reassuring her, she tried to see the dream as a good omen. But as the moment of separation approached, her heart started to feel restless and uneasy.
"Did you bring the peace charm from Mystic Hideaway Temple with you?" Actually, before leaving Saxon Mansion, she had already checked it once, and Matthew Saxon had taken the peace charm out of the coat pocket to show it to her.
But there was still an inexplicable unease.
Matthew Saxon smiled and pinched her nose: "Didn’t I already show it to you before we left?"
Scarlett Yates sniffled, shook his sleeve twice, and said coyly: "Let me see it again now."
Matthew Saxon couldn’t refuse her, so he took out the peace charm once more.
The peace charm was in his coat pocket, and after he took it out, Scarlett Yates checked it again, ensuring that he indeed carried it with him, and only then did her heart calm down a bit.
"Remember, you absolutely mustn’t lose it." She slowly returned the peace charm to his pocket.
Before leaving this morning, she had called Stella Nelson to inquire about matters related to the peace charm.
Stella Nelson firmly assured her that the charms from Mystic Hideaway Temple were indeed very efficacious. Her aunt was about to undergo a very dangerous surgery with less than a fifty percent success rate. At that time, she went to Mystic Hideaway Temple to request a charm, and the surgery turned out very successful. Her aunt overcame the danger, recovered in the hospital for a month, and then regained her health.
"Yes, carry it with you at all times, except when bathing and sleeping. You’ve instructed me three times already; I won’t forget."
Scarlett Yates chuckled into his arms: "Do you think I’m being annoying?"
Matthew Saxon shook his head: "No."
She was too worried about him, which made her so attentive to a piece of talisman paper.
In his heart, he only felt warmth and happiness. How could he think she was annoying?
It turns out that being cared for so much doesn’t feel bad, knowing there’s someone worried and concerned about him, his heart felt profoundly satisfied.
"Matthew Saxon, take good care of yourself." Scarlett Yates laughed for a while, but then her voice sounded muffled, and she felt a bit down.
"I will."
"After you get off the plane, let me know you’re safe at the first opportunity."
"Alright."
"When you come back, we’ll go visit Uncle Saxon together."
"Alright."
"You must come back."
"Alright."
"You must come back safe and sound."
"Alright, I promise."
"I will wait for you, waiting endlessly for you."
As she spoke, her voice started to choke with emotion.
Matthew Saxon rubbed her head and laughed softly: "Why are you crying now, making it seem like a life-and-death parting."
"Psh psh psh, don’t mention death." Scarlett Yates immediately covered his mouth and frowned, "What death, it’s so inauspicious."
Matthew Saxon’s peach blossom eyes curved, and he kissed her hand that was covering his mouth.
This scene happened to be seen by Alice Green, who was walking by.
She was already furious from what happened at George’s place and hadn’t found an outlet to vent. Now, seeing Scarlett Yates and Matthew Saxon being all lovey-dovey, her anger grew even larger. She glared at them intensely, clenched her lips, consumed by jealousy.
George turned to glance at her, mocking from the side: "It’s no use envying them; Young Master will never treat you this way."
