Chapter 661When Scarlett opened her eyes, Raymond was answering the phone. His voice was not loud, but she was so thirsty that she woke up. She saw Raymond get out of bed with his phone and go out. The alarm clock next to her had been turned off by him.She propped herself up, asking Hilla to open the curtains.The sunlight beamed in. She raised her hand to protect her eyes, walking out in the slippers.Raymond was sitting on the sofa in the outer room. Hearing the sound, he gave her a look. "Did I wake you up?"Scarlett shook her head and said in a husky voice, "I want to drink water.""I'll pour it for you."He stood up and came up to her, rubbing her cheek.Scarlett watched him pull open the door and walk out. She couldn't help touching her face.Did Raymond think she was a child?He liked to pinch her cheek so much.The bright sunshine poured through the windows. The bedroom was lit up.Scarlett came out of her trance. She turned into the bathroom to wash up.When Sca
Chapter 662Sure enough, Raymond answered the phone a little faster than usual.Alexander proudly raised his eyebrows. "Raymond, I'm on a golf course with Stephen. Do you and Scarlett want to come over?"Raymond frowned disapprovingly. "We're at the stable.""I'll join you! I haven't gone riding for a long time. You didn't invite me!"Raymond snorted. "What for?"Alexander was speechless.So a single man didn't deserve to hang out with them, right?"Which stable? I'll come with Stephen!"It was so hot. Alexander didn't want to play golf anymore. It was great to go riding!Raymond looked at Scarlett beside him. "Alexander is coming over."Scarlett glanced up at him. "I'm not the owner of the stable. I can't stop Alexander from coming!""I can."Scarlett suddenly felt that Alexander was pitiful. "Never mind. It's fun to play with more people.""Okay."Raymond answered and then told Alexander their location on the phone.Alexander had thought since Raymond ignored him and
Chapter 663When Alexander and Stephen rode over, Scarlett and Raymond had ridden two laps.Scarlett glanced at the two of them. "Long time no see, Mr. Smith and Mr. James."Stephen nodded. "Long time no see.""It's been a long time! Scarlett, why do you look even more beautiful?"Just as Alexander said this, he felt a chill down his spine.He tilted his head, finding Raymond looking at him coldly.Alexander smiled awkwardly. "Raymond, don't misunderstand. I'm just complimenting Scarlett."Raymond didn't bother to pay attention to Alexander. Raymond glanced at Stephen with a nod.Alexander liked to join in the fun. Before Scarlett could say anything, he saw some people racing not far away and asked, "Scarlett, are you good at riding?"Alexander remembered what happened last night. He didn't know how to ask for Scarlett's mercy. Alexander suddenly had an idea. He thought if he could defeat Scarlett today, then Shaylee's matter would be solved easily.Alexander was proud of hi
Chapter 664"Ah, didn't you just stay up late last night? What do you mean?"Scarlett innocently looked at Alexander with a smile.Raymond couldn't stand it. "Aren't you going to race?"Hearing this, Alexander worried that Raymond wouldn't allow Scarlett to race with him. Alexander hastily rode to the starting line. "Let's begin! We'll just play one game!"Scarlett rode up to him, nodding in response. "Okay."Raymond and Stephen were next to them. Raymond counted down from three to one. As his hand fell, Scarlett and Alexander rushed forward at the same time.Scarlett didn't know how well Alexander rode. She rode conservatively at first, afraid that Alexander would see through her trick. She was half a length behind Alexander.When Alexander reached the first obstacle, he slowed down.Scarlett raised an eyebrow and followed closely behind him.Alexander jumped over the first hurdle. He looked back at Scarlett, seeing that she was already two lengths behind him, he was a bit s
Chapter 665Scarlett laughed and added, "Mr. Smith, don't get me wrong. I will pay you back the money that you spend on the copyright of December. But please transfer the development copyright of December to us."Alexander felt that Scarlett did it on purpose, so he said, "I'm not short of that money."What he lacked was not royalties.The author of December wanted two and a half million dollars for the royalties. Alexander had tried hard to discuss with the author and had already decided to pay him. But what he didn't expect was that he would lose the copyright because he competed with Scarlett, so he was very sad.But Alexander said generously, "No problem. But you should go and talk to the author."After all, Crain Vision Entertainment Company was no match for the Sunrigal Corporation. Generally speaking, many authors would cooperate with the Sunrigal Corporation, which was more famous with better resources, rather than Crain Vision Entertainment Company, which was establishe
Chapter 666He insisted that he couldn't be disgraced.Scarlett looked at him meaningfully, "Oh. I didn't expect you are so attractive."Alexander suddenly said smugly, "Of course. Scarlett, when Ray pursued you in the past, I helped him think of many ways. I have the most experience in pursuing girls in Juanton City."Hearing this, Scarlett couldn't help but smile. Then she turned her head and glanced at Raymond, "So it was Mr. Smith who taught you that?"Seeing Alexander's smug face, Raymond wanted to pour the coffee in his hand over his face to sober him up.But Raymond held back. After all, they had been friends for many years. He said, "No."Alexander said unhappily, "Ray, it was me who taught you to send flowers to Scarlett in the past!"After saying that, he looked at Scarlett smugly, "Scarlett, do you think it's romantic and pleasant to receive anonymous bouquets of flowers every day?"Scarlett raised her eyebrows slightly, "Mr. Smith, do you want to hear the truth?"
Chapter 667It was time to tell Alexander, Stephen, and other friends that Raymond might not be the son of Zacharie Shaw.Ryker had always wanted to kick Raymond away from Tenton, but Raymond was Zacharie’s son and was capable of dealing with all the issues in the Shaw family. As Raymond's uncle, Ryker had no choice but to reluctantly quit.Jean went to see Ryker last night. She estimated that Ryker would do something. Soon, there would be news coming out from Juanton City.On the way, Alexander could not help but say, "Ray thinks that his relationship with Scarlett is more important than his relationships with bros.”Stephen was driving. He inclined his head and looked at Alexander. "Only for you. Don't take me with you."Stephen paused for a moment and said, "Call Jake. Let him come too."Alexander was about to retort when he heard what Stephen said. He was stunned and said, "What's the point of calling him? I called him this morning. He said he was busy with his classes and a
Chapter 668Raymond glanced at Alexander, "Yes."Stephen and Jake frowned. Jake pursed his lips and said, "Your father has passed away. Jean's evidence on this thing of whether you are Zacharie's biological son isn't sufficient."Stephen nodded in agreement, "Yes, everyone in Juanton City knew that she ran away with another man when you were just a few days old. It's not a hard thing to accept that you're not her biological son. Besides, your father has passed away for almost ten years. As for Jean's alleged paternity test, except her, who knows who it is with."Raymond answered, "I'm okay with all that. I'm telling you this because she went to meet Ryker last night."Alexander was very angry, "Is she conspiring with Ryker to kick you out of the Shaw family?"The expression on Raymond's face didn't change, and Scarlett kept a faint smile.This big news really surprised these good friends of Raymond's.Scarlett picked up a poker and smiled, "It's hard to prove that if Raymond is
