Chapter 195: Chapter 195: Not Petty with You
Matthew Saxon remained motionless, his slightly squinted eyes sohow closed, a faint weariness between his brows.
His breathing was light and even.
Scarlett Yates frowned even tighter, staring at him with doubt for a mont.
Was he really asleep? So quickly?
He was just talking to her monts ago, how could he be silent so suddenly? The speed at which he fell asleep was astonishing.
Scarlett couldn’t help but whisper softly to herself, "Didn’t even take off his clothes, just slept like that, like a pig."
Matthew lay facing the window.
The wind blew in from outside again, after the storm, carrying a damp chill that could easily make one feel cold.
Scarlett turned her head and looked at the curtains puffed up by the wind, hesitated for a second, and like she was sighing helplessly, slowly walked to the window and gently closed it.
Little did she know, at the mont she turned around, Matthew suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes.
His gaze followed her to the window, seeing her close it, and there was a trace of complex expression in his deep dark eyes.
The mont Scarlett turned around, Matthew quickly closed his eyes again, maintaining his original posture, not moving at all as if he had indeed fallen into a deep sleep.
Although he couldn’t see, he could hear the slight sound of footsteps gradually approaching the side of the bed, finally stopping at the side where he lay.
Matthew developed a strong interest in what was going to happen next.
She didn’t leave imdiately.
So, what else did she want to do?
In his heart, there was even a faint anticipation, hoping she would do sothing interesting.
Scarlett stood by the bed, looking at him.
Matthew when asleep was very different from when awake.
He lay there quietly with his eyes closed, looking much more pleasing and likable than when his eyes were open.
After all, such a beautiful face was rare, and appreciating it from an aesthetic point of view was quite a delightful sight.
As she watched, she couldn’t help but whisper again, "Heaven, you really are too partial to him, how much goodwill must have been accumulated in the past life to reincarnate as him in this one."
"And it was lucky to et . If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t care if you slept to death here, considering how annoying you usually are, never doing anything to lighten soone’s mood."
"Tell , how can there be such an annoying man like you in the world, making people grit their teeth in hatred."
"Though you are undoubtedly a great scoundrel, who is to bla that I’m such a pure-hearted, kind, and beautiful girl? Alas, a woman as forgiving and generous as
is hard to find, even with a lantern, Young Master, you truly don’t appreciate your blessings."
Matthew never expected that this woman would stand by the bed for quite so ti, doing nothing but praising herself over and over.
Kind-hearted and pure, forgiving and generous?
She really didn’t spare any words in praising herself.
Scarlett praised herself for a while, perhaps even feeling a bit embarrassed, she lightly coughed twice and then chuckled warmly, whispering, "Even though you are a scoundrel and quite the rascal, you’ve helped
many tis. So, you’re not all bad. For the sake of the little bit of conscience you haven’t completely extinguished, I won’t bother with you."
Finishing her self-dialogue, she saw a thin blanket on one side of the bed, then crouched down to grab it, intending to cover Matthew with it before leaving.
She had to reach over Matthew’s body to get the blanket.
Leaning over, just as one hand was reaching out and hadn’t yet touched the blanket, a whirlwind ensued. Before she could react, her startled cry was muffled by an unexpected deep kiss.
Everything happened too fast.
Scarlett hadn’t even had ti to react, her eyes widened in shock.
