Chapter 1238: You Can’t Control Me
Although he still didn’t know what Noah Yates’s purpose was, the idea of being wary of others should never be dismissed; it’s something he has understood since childhood. How could he almost lapse into confusion now?
--
When Scarlett Yates brought the prepared breakfast into Matthew Saxon’s bedroom, she clearly felt his attitude turn somewhat cold again.
When she placed his portion of breakfast by the bed, Matthew Saxon didn’t even glance at it and said blandly, "Just leave the breakfast and go out."
"Huh?" Scarlett was taken aback, looked up, and gazed at him in confusion.
"I don’t like being watched while I eat."
"Well, you can eat, and I won’t watch you." Since when did he have this habit? He never mentioned it before.
He lowered his head, frowning at her, "That’s not okay either. As long as there’s someone else in the room, I’m not comfortable."
"But..." She bit her lip, her delicate brows furrowing, "We used to eat together, and you never said you were uncomfortable."
Who has such a strange habit anyway?
Not liking being watched while eating is understandable; if someone watched her eat, she’d feel her appetite affected too. But not allowing anyone else to be present while eating is quite rare.
"The past is the past." Matthew Saxon snorted coldly, "I’m not comfortable with it now. Are you going out or not?"
"Then I’ll leave..." Scarlett, resembling a bullied little wife, bit her lip and looked at him with grievance, "I’ll come back after you finish eating."
"No need." Matthew Saxon closed his eyes lazily and said, "After breakfast, go back home. You don’t need to stay at the hospital to take care of me."
Scarlett was about to stand up and leave but suddenly stopped in her tracks, stunned, and asked, "Why?"
"No reason. You don’t need to come over for the time being. After all, I can’t remember the past. Your coming over means nothing. To me, you’re like a stranger. I’m not used to being taken care of by strangers." His tone was indifferent, with a touch of deliberate coldness.
"But aren’t the nurses taking care of you also strangers?" Scarlett realized then, ’not liking people watching him eat’ was just an excuse.
It turned out, he just didn’t want to see her.
Scarlett felt both angry and sad inside.
She thought that after a night, their relationship had changed quite a bit.
Evidently, his attitude towards her had improved a lot, and he should have accepted her. Why did he suddenly start rejecting her again?
He just said she was a stranger.
Well, that’s because he doesn’t remember her, but hearing him say ’stranger’ with such an emotionless voice still hurt her inside.
"A nurse wouldn’t claim to be my wife, or make me feel uneasy at every moment."
"So I make you very uneasy?" Scarlett bit her lip hard, feeling indignant.
"That’s right, I feel very uneasy with you here. If you really want me to recover quickly, then don’t come to the hospital anymore." He spoke ruthlessly.
She is Noah Yates’s daughter.
Even if he doesn’t truly dislike her in his heart, he can’t let her stay anymore.
A single night could change him so much. If she stayed in the hospital every day, he feared he would truly be bewitched by her.
"I won’t!" Scarlett was extremely angry, her stubbornness rising, "Why can’t I come to the hospital to see you? You’re my husband. I can come whenever I want and stay as long as I want. You can’t control me."
