Chapter 539"Good morning, Ms. Reed."When Scarlett stepped out of the elevator, she saw Katherine with a stack of documents ready to go to work.Scarlett nodded and said with a smile, "Morning."Katherine followed Scarlett into the office with the documents in her arms and said, "This is ZC's acquisition proposal.""Okay."Scarlett put down her bag and then reached out to take the proposal. She looked up and saw Katherine still standing in front of her desk. Scarlett raised her eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"Looking at Scarlett, Katherine remembered what happened online last night. She hesitated for a few seconds and asked cautiously, "Are you and Mr. Shaw getting back together?"Hearing Katherine's words, Scarlett moved her eyes slightly and looked at her with a smile. "Did you get scared?"Katherine shook her head and said, "No, I'm just a little surprised."As Scarlett's secretary and fangirl, Katherine was very dissatisfied with Raymond's beh
Chapter 540"About what's going on between you and Raymond, I'm not against it, but I won't support it either, so you'll have to talk to grandpa yourselves." Larry would not oppose them. It was the biggest compromise. Raymond had put Scarlett through a lot of suffering. Larry even wanted to take Scarlett back and never let Raymond see her. Now that they got back together, Larry didn't want to upset Scarlett. But he knew how Scarlett suffered in Shaw's family, and so did his grandfather. If Raymond really wanted to be with Scarlett, he needed to show his sincerity, and that could be painstaking. Of course, Larry would love to see that. Raymond should be punished for making Scarlett suffer in the past. Scarlett knew that Larry was not mad. She was relieved, "Thank you, brother." "Go to have lunch." Scarlett was an adult. She didn't need him to give her any lecture, and Larry didn't want to say more about it. Scarlett hung up the phon
Chapter 541Seeing the person, Libby was taken aback. "Mr... Mr. Shaw."Raymond glanced at Libby. "Mr. Jones, Mr. Lancelot."Darrell looked at Raymond. "I won't bother you anymore, Mr. Shaw and Ms. Reed."Darrell pulled Libby away.Outside the restaurant, Libby seemed to have just realized what was going on. "Is Scarlett with Raymond?"Darrell nodded. "Didn't you see the news on the Internet last night?"There was a lot of news about Scarlett and Raymond getting back together. Everyone in Juanton City and even the whole country knew it.Libby gritted her teeth. "Scarlett used to like pestering Raymond. Maybe she asked some people to spread the news!"Libby snorted. "Raymond has never liked her. I have no idea what she did to make up with Raymond. Scarlett is so crafty!"Darrell didn't want to be entangled with things between women, but the Jones family and the Lancelot family wanted to be united by marriage. The Jones family was backed by the Smith family. Libby was good enou
Chapter 542They were going too far!Seeing Stephen walking over, Scarlett stopped teasing Alexander. "Mr. James, happy birthday.""Thank you."Stephen nodded. His eyes fell on Raymond. Seeing that Raymond was gazing affectionately at Scarlett, Stephen tutted. "Congratulations.""Thank you."Raymond accepted it without ceremony.There were a lot of guests tonight. They were all acquaintances of the same circle.Cindy was also here. Hearing that Scarlett came, she ran over. "Scarlett!"After graduating, Cindy started to work. She had been busy for the past few months. Scarlett hadn't seen her for several months.Scarlett tilted her head and glanced at Raymond. "I'll go with Cindy."Raymond let go of her hand. "Okay."Scarlett smiled, going to the other side with Cindy.Raymond fixed his eyes on Scarlett until he couldn't see her.Seeing this, Alexander got goosebumps and gulped. "Raymond, don't you feel you're disgusting?"Raymond glared at him. "Have you ever been in lov
Chapter 543Cindy led Scarlett to a small corner. After making sure Raymond didn't follow them, Cindy asked in a low voice, "Scarlett, are you back with Raymond?"Scarlett glanced at Cindy with a smile. "Do you think I'm not worthy of Raymond?""No! He's the one who is unworthy of you!"Cindy had thought that Scarlett just liked Raymond, but after the anniversary celebration of Juanton University, Cindy realized how much effort Scarlett had made out of love for Raymond.Scarlett was cursed viciously as she married Raymond. She came alone to Juanton City, which was far from her hometown, because of Raymond. Cindy was shocked.Raymond was good, but in Cindy's opinion, Scarlett deserved someone better.Hearing this, Scarlett slightly raised her eyebrows. "Is Raymond very ugly?"Cindy shook her head. "No."If Raymond were ugly, then ninety-nine percent of the men in this world would be bad-looking."Is he incapable?"Cindy continued to shake her head. "No, I don't think so."Ra
Chapter 544"Oh."Scarlett answered. As she thought that what she just said was heard by Raymond, her face grew hotter and hotter.She sipped her juice and glanced around. When she saw Alexander, Scarlett couldn't help raising her eyebrows. "Is Alexander chatting with a woman?"Raymond looked over, seeing Alexander talking with a woman.Raymond had never seen that woman before. She should not be in their circle."Yes."Scarlett tutted. "It seems that Alexander will soon have a girlfriend.""Not necessarily."Scarlett withdrew her eyes, smiling at Raymond. "Why?""He is too silly to chase women."Scarlett laughed. "You seem to be right."Scarlett was used to going to bed early. The two of them didn't stay long at Noble Club.When they returned to the villa, it was already after nine o'clock. Scarlett yawned just as she entered the house.She got up early this morning and didn't take a nap at noon, so she was a bit drowsy.Raymond came out of the kitchen with a glass of wa
Chapter 545When Scarlett woke up, the sunlight outside the curtains was bright. The alarm clock that rang every day at seven o'clock had been turned off. The room was quiet. Raymond was not here.What happened last night flashed across her mind like an old silent movie. Scarlett blushed.She touched her hot cheeks, glancing at the tightly closed curtains. "Hilla, open the curtains."Her voice was husky.Scarlett was embarrassed. She hurriedly got up and went into the bathroom.After washing up, she picked up her phone. It was almost nine o'clock.The sun blazed down. Scarlett walked downstairs, hearing Raymond's voice from inside the living room.Through the screen, Scarlett saw Raymond talking on the phone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.She had thought he had gone to his company.Noticing the gaze from behind him, Raymond looked back. His eyes fell on Scarlett and moved slightly."Postpone the meeting until this afternoon."After saying that, Raymond directly hu
Chapter 546He could make simple porridge, but he had never cooked dishes."I trust you!""Okay."Half an hour later, Scarlett was standing outside the kitchen, looking at Raymond who was wearing an apron. She was lost in thought.She just said that on a whim, but unexpectedly, Raymond asked someone to send the ingredients over.Scarlett's mother was bad at cooking. Her father cooked for them. Sometimes Scarlett's mother asked her to cook with her father, but Scarlett always burnt the ingredients.Scarlett's mother watched by her side, asking with amusement and concern, "You can't cook. What if you have to cook after getting married?"Whenever this happened, Scarlett's father would say, "My sweetie is so pretty and smart. Who would ask her to cook? She can marry a man who is willing to cook for her."If her dad were still alive, he would like Raymond.What a pity!"What are you thinking about, baby?"A low mellow voice suddenly came over. Scarlett came out of her trance. Sh
