Chapter 1233: Aren’t You Noah Yates’s Daughter?
After hearing what she said, Matthew Saxon remained silent for a while.
His face was still calm, but he was quite shocked inside.
The person Scarlett Yates mentioned made him feel incredulous. Had he really loved her?
"You said my grandfather strongly opposed us being together?"
"Yes."
"Why?" If she was the Yates Family’s rich lady, in terms of status, marrying into the Saxon Family would be considered well-matched, so why would Ian Douglas oppose it?
Even though Ian Douglas originally favored Pearl Simmons, the status and position of the Yates Family’s eldest daughter were in no way inferior to the Simmons Family’s.
If Ian Douglas could accept the Simmons Family, there was no reason he couldn’t accept the Yates Family.
"He thinks you are the most perfect man in the world, and someone as ordinary as me isn’t worthy of you."
"But the Yates Family’s rich lady isn’t just any ordinary woman." He looked at her with a trace of doubt, "Aren’t you Noah Yates’s daughter?"
Scarlett Yates’s expression changed slightly, she stayed silent for a moment, bit her lip, "Noah Yates is my dad."
This is something she couldn’t deny.
Matthew Saxon raised his eyebrows directly and said, "The Yates Family and the Saxon Family are very well-matched."
Scarlett Yates knew what he was doubting and smiled bitterly, "But when I met you, I wasn’t the daughter of the Yates Clan’s chairman."
Matthew Saxon raised his eyebrows again, expressing confusion.
"Well, it’s about a rich heir who ran away from home, married an ordinary woman, and had children. They lived a peaceful life for more than a decade, then suddenly got involved in a dangerous dispute. In this dispute, his wife sacrificed her life to protect her, and he returned to his family, resumed the identity of a wealthy young master, then married another well-matched woman and had children. As for the daughter from before, she was abandoned by him, leaving her to fend for herself for many years. Perhaps his conscience suddenly realized that he should bring his eldest daughter back to recognize her roots. That’s pretty much the whole story."
Her tone was very casual, as if she was telling someone else’s story, but while saying these words, her eyes clearly darkened a lot.
"So, I’m not really some true rich lady from the Yates Family. Have you ever seen a rich lady who can’t even afford tuition and has to rely on scholarships and part-time jobs to earn it herself?" She laughed mockingly at herself.
Matthew Saxon was silent for a while and asked, "Do you hate Noah Yates?"
"Hate?" Scarlett Yates thought seriously for a while and shook her head, "I don’t hate him, but he’s no longer the good dad in my heart. Now, he feels very unfamiliar to me."
"No wonder Noah Yates saved me. So, I turned out to be his son-in-law." Matthew Saxon remarked thoughtfully.
"So, do you believe what I said?" Scarlett Yates didn’t want to talk about Noah Yates anymore. She was in a pretty good mood originally, but once Noah Yates was mentioned, her heart felt like it was stuck with a thorn, painful and uncomfortable.
"You said George came with you, why didn’t he accompany you to the hospital?" It was impossible for Matthew Saxon to completely believe her.
He’s naturally suspicious and never trusts people easily.
Even though he could tell Scarlett Yates wasn’t lying, he wouldn’t simply trust her just like that.
He couldn’t remember if what she said was true or false, but George always knew.
"He’s still at the Yates Family. This time my dad only allowed me to come over alone. If you want to confirm with George, I’ll call him right now." After saying that, she immediately took out her phone.
