Chapter 1245: Everything I Did Was for You
"Why have you become like this, why?" Scarlett Yates couldn’t help but cry out.
It was as if a beautiful dream had suddenly shattered.
And the person who broke her dream was her closest one.
Why is this so cruel?
Why did Heaven arrange for her to reunite with Noah Yates?
At this moment, she viciously thought she truly wished Noah had died in that car accident.
Noah gently patted her head, sighed, and wiped away her tears at the corners of her eyes, speaking softly, "Scarlett, people always change. You see, you’re not the same as before either, right?"
"But no matter how we change, you must believe that I’m doing all this for your own good. Everything I do is for you, for our family to be better. Trust me, though you might not understand now, one day you’ll understand my struggles."
"I don’t want to understand..."
"It’s okay if you don’t want to understand. Just live happily each day, don’t think too much."
"Happy?" Scarlett’s tears fell one by one, but the corners of her lips slightly lifted, "Dad, do you think I can still be happy? You want to take away what I value most, and yet you tell me to be happy. Do you think I’m a fool who can’t think?"
"You need to learn to accept reality." Noah sighed again, speaking earnestly, "Crying is useless, it changes nothing. Even though I love you, I won’t disregard the bigger picture for you. As my daughter, you shouldn’t be so weak. Dry your tears, if you really care about Matthew Saxon, then cooperate with me."
"As long as you obediently listen, I won’t make things too difficult for him. I promise you, once he’s recovered, he’ll be allowed to return to Z City."
Scarlett’s face showed a sorrowful smile, salty tears falling into her mouth: "But you’ll only let him go, right?"
Noah seemed helpless, knitting his brows and sighing with a tone of resignation, "Scarlett, only when you sign the divorce papers will I let you leave."
More cruel words followed: "And for the other person’s signature, I need you to persuade him."
"No matter what method you use, you must make him sign the divorce agreement. Once that’s done, he’ll be able to leave unharmed."
Is there anyone more despicable and shameless than Noah Yates?
Suddenly, Scarlett felt all her tears were a waste.
To cry for such a heartless and despicable man, is it worth it?
The Noah Yates of the past was already dead; the person before her was nothing more than a repulsive schemer.
Her tears immediately stopped; she no longer cried, lifting her reddened eyes to stare at him coldly.
This indifferent and loathing gaze made Noah Yates panic briefly, with some regret.
Honestly, Noah did have some affection for his eldest daughter; he truly loved Autumn Spencer back then, and Scarlett Yates looked very much like Autumn. Because of this, Noah couldn’t treat her too harshly.
So, when he saw Scarlett looking at him with cold disgust, he did feel a bit of regret.
He never wanted his eldest daughter to hate him.
But that feeling of regret only lasted a moment. Soon, his ambitions and desire for more power replaced everything, leaving no trace of even that little bit of regret.
