Chapter 1127: Chapter 1127: All Right, Sleep Tight
The woman in his arms breathed evenly and smoothly, her eyes still tightly closed, lying on his chest with her hands on his chest, sound asleep, her cheeks rosy with no sign of waking up.
Her little face was as pink as a peach, making one irresistibly want to give it a pinch.
Matthew Saxon’s hand indeed went to pinch it.
"Scarlett, wake up."
The low, gentle voice echoed in Scarlett Yates’ ear, like the melodious sound of a beautiful violin.
Scarlett Yates’ eyelids moved slightly, she vaguely heard someone calling her name, furrowed her brows, turned over, and buried the other side of her face into his arms.
Matthew couldn’t help but chuckle, his lips curling up, as he reached out again to pinch her face twice, "Scarlett, wake up, we need to get out of the car."
This time, Matthew’s volume increased a little.
Scarlett Yates frowned even harder, her whole face scrunched up, clearly unhappy about someone disrupting her sweet dream.
"Don’t bother me, I’m very sleepy, let me sleep a bit longer, just a little while." Scarlett mumbled in a drowsy state, half-dreaming, thinking she was still in school, mistaking Matthew for Stella Nelson, and smacking his face with her hand, grumbling, "Stella, just let me sleep a bit longer, will you?"
Hearing her murmur, Matthew was even more amused.
It seemed she was indeed drowsy, couldn’t even figure out who he was.
Matthew called out twice, but couldn’t wake Scarlett Yates up, watched her turn over and fall back asleep, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile, patted her head, and said with a smile, "Sleep then, I won’t call you." frёewebηovel.cѳm
"No... no, you have to wake me before class, or I’ll be late." She mumbled, nuzzling her head into his chest, seemingly satisfied with him as a human pillow, sighing contentedly.
Matthew’s smile deepened, and he cooperatively said, "Alright, sleep peacefully, I’ll wake you before class." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
So, she had a habit of lazing in bed even during her school days.
He always thought that a good student like her would definitely get up early and be the first to the classroom, sitting there for half an hour before other classmates trickled in.
A diligent and hardworking good student, aren’t they all like that?
Perhaps hearing Matthew’s words, Scarlett Yates felt at ease, mumbled a few more incoherent words, and fell back asleep at ease.
In her semi-awake, semi-drowsy state, she subconsciously thought she was still in school, which showed her years at Saint Mercy were probably very wonderful to her.
Yet those years should have been her toughest years.
She had to study and work, what should have been the most relaxed years were instead her most stressful years.
But even so, did she still feel those years were wonderful?
So that was why, in her subconscious, she imagined she was still studying at Saint Mercy University.
Thinking of the hardships she endured, Matthew felt a pang of heartache.
He couldn’t be a part of her past life, but he would cherish her diligently in the future, adore her, treat her like a princess, and never let her suffer any bit more.

More than ten minutes later, the silver-gray Lamborghini parked outside Seymour Tower.
Scarlett Yates was still asleep, and Matthew didn’t plan to wake her up, gently carried her out of the car.
