Free Web NovelChapter 1211: Chapter 1031: No One Can Defy Him
Even though she is his daughter, Mr. Saxon used to dote on her; however, after so many years without seeing each other, even the best feelings have faded significantly.
As the saying goes, absence decreases affection. Isn’t this just what it means?
--
Scarlett Yates sat alone in the empty dining room.
The table was filled with dishes she loved, but she had no appetite at all and mechanically stuffed food into her mouth until she finished a bowl of white rice, then she stopped.
The taste of every dish on the table hadn’t changed, but the person who made these dishes had changed completely.
Meeting again, she and Noah Yates didn’t spend much time together, but this short half-hour deeply made her feel Noah’s transformation.
Nowadays, Noah has become somewhat egocentric and very assertive.
He couldn’t tolerate anyone speaking ill of him.
Scarlett had long noticed that Noah was bearing with her, she kept wondering how long he could endure.
She also knew well that if Noah weren’t deeply guilty toward her, even that short half-hour would be unbearable for him.
But his guilt toward her would not last long.
Initially, perhaps he could bear her, accommodate her, but as time passes, his guilt would gradually diminish; if by then she still didn’t "get it," his guilt would turn into annoyance.
A person accustomed to being egocentric cannot tolerate others for long.
At this moment, Scarlett truly wished she and Noah hadn’t reunited, so she wouldn’t know he was still alive, and she would continue to remember him as the gentle and loving father from her memories.
Heaven must have thought her past year was too flat, which is why within just one week, she received two shocking news in succession.
Whether it’s the crash or being resurrected, both news are far beyond her normal threshold of endurance.
"Miss Yates."
Nanny Chapman walked in from outside, slowly approached the table, lowered her head, and said politely and respectfully, "Mr. Saxon just sent someone over, saying it’s already too late today. If Miss Yates wants to visit Mr. Saxon, she should wait until tomorrow, when he’ll see if there’s a suitable time to arrange for you to go."
After speaking, Nanny Chapman glanced at Scarlett’s expression, then slowly added another sentence, "Mr. Saxon also said Miss Yates has been traveling tirelessly all day, she should rest early tonight, and tomorrow morning Miss Yates still needs to accompany him back to the old residence."
As soon as Nanny Chapman said this, Scarlett understood Noah’s intention.
She had just made him angry, to the point where he couldn’t stand being with her, how could he possibly let her go see Matthew Saxon?
He’s using Nanny Chapman’s words to tell her that within the Yates Family, no one can confront him, Noah.
Even if he’s guilty toward her and willing to lower himself and cajole her, it must be of his own accord, and she cannot exploit this to act arrogantly and show him a displeased face.
Her previous behavior had already crossed the line, making him lose face, he’s very angry, so he’s canceling the promised arrangement.
Scarlett suddenly stood up, sneered, and said nothing, pushed the chair away and strode out.
"Miss Yates?" Nanny Chapman was a bit caught off guard, seeing Scarlett walk out without a word, she hurriedly followed with small steps and shouted, "Miss Yates, are you going to see Mr. Saxon?"
