Chapter 1842: Chapter 1832: Do you want to marry Baron?

Enna Clark couldn’t figure out what he meant.

Why did she feel like Old Master Lawrence wanted to speak on Baron Lawrence’s behalf?

But then she thought that was unlikely.

After all, from the start, Old Master Lawrence had not approved of her, so it made no sense for him to support Baron now.

As expected...

"I completely agree with your breakup. You two were never compatible."

Enna Clark remained silent, yet her heart felt as though it were gripped by an invisible hand.

The housekeeper, following beside, quickly lifted his head in surprise upon hearing Old Master Lawrence’s words.

Was the Old Lord here to break up Ms. Clark and Young Master?

He had thought that the Old Lord was... attempting to mediate.

Old Master Lawrence didn’t care how others viewed his actions, staring slightly ahead as he spoke, "I’ve always believed that each person is like a magnet, each carrying a unique magnetic field. People with the same magnetic field are attracted to each other. If a magnet insists on staying with another magnet of a different field, no matter how hard they try, they’ll never stick together. Continuing will only cause both magnets to shatter. So I consistently interact only with people of the same field. If I discover they’re not similar, even if there’s doubt, I’ll ignore that little difference inside."

"You’re like someone else." Old Master Lawrence suddenly turned back to look at Enna Clark, "I like the thousand paper cranes you fold."

The two sentences were completely unrelated.

Enna Clark was utterly confused by his roundabout talk.

"At first, I thought you were not the right magnet for Baron. Now, I suspect I was wrong; maybe you and Baron are the same kind of magnet."

He didn’t want to admit it before the poisoning incident.

But now, he’s facing the issue head-on.

"Though many magnets could fit together, they might have subtle differences that only they can sense, while others see two matching magnets."

Just like his marriage and his life.

Only he would understand the nuanced regrets in life.

Whenever he thought about it, he’d wonder what it would have been like if he hadn’t made such a decision back then.

"Between you and Emilia, I prefer Emilia. She suits Baron better." He continued as he walked, "But for the sake of the thousand paper cranes and the two little ones, I might as well ask you once more: Do you want to marry Baron?"

His life was already filled with regret, and he could never have another chance to choose again.

At his age, he had everything.

But suddenly he wanted to see what it would be like for two other people to make a different choice from his own.

Of course, he wouldn’t admit his decision was purely because he saw the shadow of another person in those few thousand paper cranes.

"Ms. Clark, do you want to marry Baron?" Old Master Lawrence suddenly stopped and looked at her.

Completely ignoring Enna Clark’s shocked, wide-eyed expression.

Marry?

Did Old Master Lawrence just say marriage?

Wasn’t he just talking about agreeing to her breakup with Baron? How did he suddenly ask if she wanted to marry Baron?

"Baron’s not young anymore; he needs to settle down and establish himself. I can’t let him continue delaying. I’ll announce that he’s getting married in half a month. As for the bride, if Ms. Clark isn’t willing, I’ll have to find someone else." Old Master Lawrence didn’t think his words were shocking at all, as if he were casually discussing buying groceries on the roadside; if not, he’d just pick someone else.
