Free Web NovelChapter 1214: Chapter 1214: Truly a Temptress
This really caught her off guard. After all, whenever Noah Yates mentioned the Saxon Family, his expression was always full of hatred, so how could he possibly have saved Matthew Saxon purely out of the goodness of his heart?
"Mr. Saxon is right inside. Miss, why don’t you go in and have a look."
With that, Uncle Marshall gently knocked on the door.
Someone came to open it very quickly. The door swung open, revealing a young, pretty face from inside.
Standing in the room was a girl in a nurse’s uniform. Her skin was very fair, with an oval face and delicate features. Maybe the heating in the room was cranked up too high, because her cheeks looked a little too red.
"Mr. Marshall." Seeing Uncle Marshall, she politely greeted him. After saying hello, her pitch‑black eyes started roaming all over Scarlett Yates, sizing her up for a moment before calmly withdrawing her gaze.
Scarlett wasn’t sure if it was her imagination, but she felt that when the little nurse looked at her, there was a hint of hostility in her eyes.
The kind of look you’d give when you run into a love rival.
Uncle Marshall gave a slight nod, then said to her, "You don’t need to stay here and keep watch. You can go out now."
The little nurse froze. That not‑so‑kind gaze landed on Scarlett again. She stared at her for a moment, then softly asked, "Mr. Marshall, haven’t I always been the one taking care of him? Everything’s been fine, so why... I mean, I’m more familiar with Mr. Saxon’s condition. If you switch to this lady you brought, Mr. Saxon might not be used to it."
Normally, if Uncle Marshall told the nurse to leave, she should obediently do as she was told.
But this little nurse actually hinted that she didn’t want to go.
Now that was a bit unusual.
Scarlett lifted her head, her eyes meeting the nurse’s inexplicable hostility. Her gaze slid down slightly, landing on the nurse’s abnormally flushed cheeks. She stared for a few seconds, and suddenly, it was like something clicked.
Once she’d roughly figured it out, she couldn’t help finding it a little funny.
The one inside really was a walking disaster. Even after a plane crash and ending up in the hospital, he could still throw a little nurse’s heart into chaos.
Matthew Saxon’s demon‑level, breathtakingly handsome face flashed through her mind, and even Scarlett had to admit that that face of his was indeed dangerously tempting.
Even if he did absolutely nothing, said absolutely nothing, just lay there with his eyes closed, he was still stunning enough to make people dizzy.
"This is our family’s eldest young lady." Uncle Marshall frowned. He was clearly displeased by the nurse clinging on and refusing to leave, and his tone was no longer as polite as before. "When the young lady comes to visit her friend, she doesn’t like having other people around."
Eldest young lady?
The Yates Family’s eldest young lady?
The nurse was stunned for a few seconds, her eyes widening slightly. She was probably too shocked, because the surprise on her face was completely undisguised, with a faint trace of doubt in her eyes.
How had she never heard that the Yates Family had an eldest young lady?
Everyone knew that Noah Yates, chairman of the Yates Clan Group, only had one son and one daughter—the son was the elder, and the daughter was the younger sister.
Could this be some cousin from a side branch? But if she were really a cousin, Uncle Marshall shouldn’t be addressing her like this.
The nurse was full of questions, but since she could already hear the displeasure in Uncle Marshall’s voice, she didn’t dare say anything more. Though she was extremely reluctant, she still had no choice but to leave Matthew Saxon’s ward.
--
Matthew Saxon was in a VIP ward. The room was very spacious, laid out like a standard two‑bedroom suite with a living room. Even though it was in a hospital, the interior was still decorated with great care and refinement.
