Chapter 968: Chapter 968: Just a Little Afraid
"It’s not that I don’t want to get married, I’m just a little scared..."
"Scared? What are you afraid of?"
Feeling her opening up to him, Matthew Saxon thought he should seize the opportunity to see what she was really thinking.
He looked at her with encouraging eyes, placed her hand on his chest, gently pressing it there, and asked in a low voice, "Are you afraid I will change my heart? You already have a place here, and it will never change. Except for you, no one else will ever occupy this position."
These were Matthew Saxon’s words of affection.
He rarely said such mushy things.
But when he said these words in such a situation, Scarlett Yates found them not mushy at all.
Her heart felt sweet, like it was wrapped in honey.
No woman dislikes sweet words; the only difference lies in whether she likes the man who says them.
"No, Matthew, I’m not worried about you changing your heart." Scarlett quickly explained to prevent any misunderstanding, "I’m just afraid I won’t adapt to married life."
Going from a freshly graduated college student to a married woman was quite a leap.
Matthew furrowed his brows in confusion, "What can’t you adapt to? Scarlett, tell
everything you’re worried about, what is it exactly you’re afraid of?"
"I’m afraid I won’t play the role of a wife well." Seeing that he didn’t seem angry, she beca much more open, gradually revealing her inner thoughts to him, "Uh, what I an is, I might not be the standard virtuous wife and mother type, nor do I want to marry into a wealthy family and give up my career, staying at ho to support my husband and raise children, living a life of leisure as a Young Madam."
"Even though I know my career isn’t much, the money I earn might be nothing more than a drop in the ocean for the Saxon Family, but I really love my job and don’t want to give it up after getting married."
Listening, Matthew Saxon laughed.
"Why are you laughing?" Scarlett didn’t think there was anything funny about what she said.
Matthew Saxon first rubbed her head, then sighed lightly, his eyes showing a hint of affection, as if amused yet helpless, "Do you think marrying
ans giving up your career?"
Scarlett nodded, "Isn’t it?"
She rembered, back then May Denton did ask Alice Green to leave the entertainnt industry, and regarding this, Roy Saxon had no objections either.
Alice Green was a big star, her career was much more glamorous and profitable compared to her small nursing job. But if she wanted to marry Maxwell Saxon, she too had to leave the entertainnt industry.
If even Alice Green had to give up her job, could she, a small nurse, still continue to work?
Wouldn’t the Saxon Family be embarrassed if a Young Madam was working as a nurse in a hospital?
"You’re such a fool." Matthew Saxon wrapped his arms around her, pinched her cheek, tapped her forehead lightly, and with a smirk said, "So that’s what you think, if I hadn’t asked you, you wouldn’t have voluntarily told . If not, I might have misunderstood you again."
"Scarlett, do you know what I like most about you?"
Gentle yet profound peach blossom eyes gazed deeply at her, Scarlett’s heart trembled, her head spun as if intoxicated, making her speech clumsy, "Wh-what, what is it?"
