Chapter 1534: Chapter 1534: This Is Just... Way Too Mushy

"But the virus in your body..."

"There will be a way, let’s not talk about this issue for now, don’t change the subject."

"..."

If she doesn’t give him a promise, he probably won’t let it go.

She knew that a proud person like him would never accept using her to get the antidote.

For a moment, Scarlett was at a loss in her heart.

Marrying Maxwell Saxon is a step only to be taken when there are no options left; she didn’t plan on choosing this without trying everything she could.

She hesitated for a long time.

The longer she hesitated, the more anxious Matthew Saxon became. He couldn’t help but intensify his grip, holding her chin tightly, and urgently said, "Scarlett, promise me, no matter what you plan to do, you must discuss it with me, don’t make decisions on your own. The poison in my body isn’t without any solution. I know someone who might be able to kill this virus."

"Things aren’t as pessimistic as you imagine. It hasn’t reached the point where you need to sacrifice yourself. No matter what’s going on in your mind, get rid of all those chaotic thoughts. Do you hear me?"

Scarlett was taken aback for a moment, then her eyes lit up. She suddenly raised her head, almost bumping into his chin. She looked at him with immense joy, her eyes sparkling: "Do you really have a way? Who is the person you know, can they really kill the virus in your body? Matthew, are you lying to me?"

He was furious, grinding his teeth as he growled in a low voice: "That’s not the key issue. Promise me first, and I’ll slowly tell you what you want to know."

Hearing there might be a solution, Scarlett felt much better and was willing to listen to him. Whatever he said, she immediately nodded: "Alright, alright, I promise you."

Agreeing so quickly, isn’t it a bit perfunctory?

Matthew Saxon wasn’t satisfied, furrowing his brows: "That’s not good enough. I want you to repeat the words exactly as I say."

"Alright, say it." Her attitude was earnest, looking up at him with a bright smile, blinking, appearing obedient and sweet, quietly waiting for him to speak.

Matthew couldn’t help but laugh, pinching her cheek, saying: "My dear husband, I promise you, no matter what decision I want to make, I will tell you first, and discuss it with you, will never act alone. I also promise that this lifetime, you are my only husband, you are the person I love most; in life and in death, I will always belong to you. This lifetime, I will marry only you, make love with you, have children with you. This promise is valid for a lifetime, witnessed by heaven and earth. I will never break it."

She was dumbfounded: "You want me to repeat those words?"

"Hmm, did you memorize it? If not, I’ll say it again."

Are you kidding?

This is just... too cheesy.

What’s with my dear husband, the most loved person, only marrying him, being with him, and having children...

Scarlett’s face turned red, her lips moved slightly, stammering: "This promise is too verbose and rather childish, can’t we change it?"

"No." Matthew Saxon’s long, narrow eyes dominantly locked onto her, "Saying it this way shows your sincerity, it sounds genuine and moving. If you want me to believe you, you must say it this way."
