Chapter 376He opened the jewelry box. It was a silver bracelet decorated with gems in the shape of camellia flowers.Scarlett wasn't as fanatical about jewelry as Alexis, and she had more than ten bracelets in the jewelry cabinet in her walk-in closet.She was not short of bracelets."Thanks, but I don't need another bracelet."Raymond grunted. He closed the box and took it back inside his pocket.Seeing this, Scarlett pursed her lips slightly.Raymond looked over. She met his eyes. "Do you still need to go to the toilet?""The flowers were not sent by me. Emelia asked Frank to buy them for her."Raymond explained. "I'm going to the toilet."Scarlett looked at his back. She walked to the side, poured a glass of water, and drank it slowly.Raymond soon came out of the toilet and up to her. "Although I missed you, you may not let me kiss you."He suddenly raised his hand and touched her face.Raymond immediately pulled his hand back. "I'll go now."After saying that, he tu
Chapter 377After such a thing happened, Katherine felt she was negligent as a secretary.Scarlett didn't think it was a big deal. Before the meeting, she saw Katherine's guilty face. Scarlett smiled. "Katherine, come here."Katherine asked, "Ms. Reed?""Ask you a question."Katherine nodded. "Okay.""Did Ronald come up with you?"Katherine frowned. "No. He was already here when I arrived. I heard that he followed the cleaner up early in the morning."Scarlett laughed. "Oh, I saw you so guilty. I thought you couldn't stop him and let him come up."Katherine was embarrassed. "Ms. Reed, I'm sorry to get you in trouble."Scarlett smiled slightly. "Sometimes we need a surprise."Katherine knew that Scarlett was comforting her. She was touched. "Thank you, Ms. Reed."Scarlett glanced at her. "It's time for the meeting."Such a trivial matter had little effect on Scarlett's mood, but the meeting made Scarlett feel uncomfortable.When she came out of the meeting room, Scarlett's
Chapter 378"When you were playing cards at my birthday party, Raymond asked someone to give you warm water."Scarlett remembered it. She was playing cards with Alexander that day. Meanwhile, a maid came and gave her water. When she touched the glass and found it was warm, she thought that the maid was quite thoughtful.She had never associated that with Raymond.Cindy was a little nervous. She knew that Scarlett didn't want her to mention Raymond. They were almost blocked by Scarlett because of that incident."Don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to say this."Scarlett glanced at Cindy. "You didn't do anything wrong. Don't be so nervous."Cindy was embarrassed. She once annoyed Scarlett.Yet Scarlett seemed to be cool with it.Cindy sighed with relief. "I'm here to tell you something.""Yes?"Scarlett raised her eyebrows and looked at Cindy, waiting for her to continue."I'll take graduation photos next Tuesday. If you're free, can you come and take a photo with me?"Cindy s
Chapter 379Scarlett came out of the bathroom and sent Cindy to the subway station. When she drove back to the villa, it was 1:30 pm. She had no work to do this afternoon, and the weather was nice, so she went back to her room and changed into sportswear, intending to go to the boxing gym.Before going out, she saw the bag on the sofa, so she paused her steps.After hesitating for a while, she went over, picked up the box in the bag, and opened it.Seeing the cufflink inside, Scarlett slightly raised her eyebrows, thinking Emelia was quite scheming.She closed the box, put it back in the bag, turned around, and walked out.Since Scarlett had had the fight with the coach, a lot of people had signed up for the class in the boxing gym because someone had posted the video of the boxing match on the Internet.But Scarlett only went there once or twice a month, so many people who had come because of her began to think the video was just a hype that the boxing gym had used to attract
Chapter 380To let him keep taking advantage of her?Scarlett rose to her feet, walked to the side, picked up her Thermos bottle and, eyes downcast, began to drink water.Raymond sat up and looked at Scarlett who was standing outside the field six or seven meters away from him.A blush of embarrassment had spread from her neck all the way up to her ears, lending her an astonishing air of allure.Raymond stroked the pulp of his finger as an almost overwhelming longing swept over him like a beast trying to burst out of its cage.Scarlett, after drinking some water, became much more composed.She flicked a glance at Raymond, gathered her things and directly pivoted around to leave.Raymond changed his shoes and followed. After watching Scarlett duck into her car, he got into his own to tail her.Scarlett looked into the rear-view mirror at the black sedan, but she didn't do anything about it.She had to return the sleeve button to him, anyway. Him following her would spare her t
Chapter 381It rained quickly and heavily.The rain fell on the ground and hit the steps. Some fell on her shoes.Scarlett glanced at Raymond and pressed the fingerprint to open the door to enter the villa.She was covered in sweat just now. Originally, she wanted to take a shower after returning the cuff button to Raymond, but Raymond followed her in. Thinking of what had happened in the boxing house just now, Scarlett's face turned cold. She poured a glass of water and put it in front of him. "Water."“Get lost after drinking.”"Thank you."Raymond looked up at her. "It's raining."He would leave after the rain stopped.Scarlett sneered, "Raymond, you don't want to go to the police station today, do you?""Yes."He answered and then opened a box.When he saw the cuff button inside, his eyes darkened slightly. But in an instant, he looked up at Scarlett. "The cuff button was pulled off by Emelia at the airport that day."He paused and added, "The clothes have been thrown
Chapter 382Raymond looked at her and said gently, "Being rude in front of the person I like will make me look real."Scarlett was speechless, so she didn't say anything.Raymond refused to leave. Scarlett had no choice.Ignoring him, she took out her phone and lowered her head to order takeout."Are you going to order takeout?"He suddenly sat beside her. Scarlett frowned, "Raymond.""Takeout is not healthy. I'll have Frank send dinner over. Don't order takeout."He didn't seem to feel her anger. He took her phone away and put it on the table, "Scarlett, let's have a talk, okay?"He suddenly said seriously, looking straight at her with his dark eyes.Scarlett froze. After coming back to her senses, she sneered, "Raymond, do you think we need to talk?""Yes."Scarlett said, "Oh, you're wrong.""Scarlett."He suddenly called her in a low voice with a sense of helplessness.At this moment, Scarlett felt a little bit heartbroken.But she came back to her senses quickly, "I
Chapter 383 Raymond had dinner and left. Scarlett didn't even ask him to leave before he consciously changed his clothes and left. Scarlett held her glass of water. Her eyes fell on the document Raymond had left, and her mind was in a bit of turmoil. The document listed all of Raymond's assets. It was clear that he was not hiding anything. The last was an agreement, which said that if he cheated in the marriage or they got divorced because of him or other reasons, he would leave home without anything. All the above assets would belong to Scarlett. The notary's name had been signed and Raymond's name had also been signed. Only in the right side was the blank for her to sign the signature. Scarlett finished reading it and put the agreement back. Scarlett was so distracted that when Alexis called, she hesitated for a long time before answering. When answered, the sound of Alexis came through, "You answered so late. Are you hiding from me to s
