Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Repaying the Debt of Saving a Life
"Old Master Saxon, you called
here to tell
sothing?" Her tone unconsciously carried a hint of respect, as if this was natural in front of Roy Saxon.
Who could bla her when the other’s aura was so overwhelming.
"Old Master Saxon?" Roy Saxon frowned slightly, turned around, a hint of a smile in his eyes, "You should call
Uncle."
Scarlett Yates hesitated for a mont, then called again, "Uncle."
Roy Saxon nodded with satisfaction.
His gaze once again fell on her face, peaceful and gentle, as it moved down from her brows, slowly scanning every part of her face, finally returning to her eyes with a complex and indistinguishable look.
He looked into her eyes, was silent for a mont, then sighed softly, "You really look like your mother."
Especially her eyes, they were exactly the sa as her mother’s.
He still rembered the first ti he saw Autumn Spencer; her eyes were just as clear and bright, without a hint of impurity, like the brightest gems.
Scarlett Yates touched her face and then smiled, "Yes, everyone says that."
When she smiled, Roy Saxon’s expression changed again, "Even the smile is the sa."
From his tone, it seed he had once been very close to the Yates Family.
But Scarlett Yates tried hard to recall, since she could rember, she had never seen Roy Saxon, not even once.
If they were truly close, how could the two families have not t for decades?
Scarlett Yates was full of questions about the engagent, and now, with such a good opportunity, she couldn’t wait to ask, "Uncle, as far as I know, before I was born, the Yates Family was quite ordinary, while the Saxon Family was a prominent noble family. Even if there was to be an engagent, it should have been with a family of equal status, so why did you choose the Yates Family?"
May Denton’s words, though harsh, weren’t without so truth.
These prestigious families always emphasized equal marriage alliances.
Roy Saxon gazed at the familiar yet unfamiliar pair of eyes before him, a fleeting sense of bewildernt crossing his face.
No matter how similar, they were ultimately not the sa person.
Autumn Spencer’s eyes always carried a faint lancholy, while the eyes before him were full of vitality, as vibrant as sunflowers blooming towards the sun.
Roy Saxon slowly began, "Your mother was my savior."
"My mother saved you?" Scarlett Yates was taken aback.
Roy Saxon nodded and briefly explained the situation at that ti, "Back then, I was trapped in soone’s sche, secretly being hunted and nearly killed. It was your mother who found
and saved my life."
"So the engagent between the Saxon Family and the Yates Family was to repay a life debt?"
So that’s how it was.
If it was really as Roy Saxon said, due to a debt of gratitude, everything could be explained.
She had long heard that Roy Saxon was a person valuing emotion and loyalty.
Roy Saxon was silent for a few seconds, sothing flashed quickly in his eyes, barely caught before it vanished.
He smiled and said, "You could say that."
"But... if the engagent was set so early, what if by the ti cos, both Young Master and I have people we love?"
Roy Saxon looked at her, smiling aningfully, "You and Matthew are fond of each other, what is there to worry about?"
"Uncle, actually..." Scarlett Yates once again felt the headache and powerlessness of admitting her fondness for Matthew Saxon.
