Chapter 1234Raymond looked down and touched Scarlett's belly with his large hand. "It's still small and has no say in the matter."He moved slightly, smiled, and looked up at her lips.Scarlett blushed under his gaze and changed the subject. "How long will we stay there?"He moved an inch back, glanced at her lips, and swallowed. "As long as you like."He stared at her lips and paused for a moment. "Do you mind if I kiss you?"Scarlett was amused by his words, thinking, 'When did he become such a gentleman? He even asked my opinion before kissing me.'She crinkled her pretty eyes, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed him on the lips. "Is it enough?"He didn't say anything and raised his eyebrows. His eyes turned hot.After saying that, Scarlett pressed him towards her and kissed his eyelid.It was a very gentle kiss, but her hot lips titillated him. Raymond finally moved, pulled down her hand, pressed her on the bed, and kissed her.His kiss was passionate and ten
Chapter 1235Because some of RayPal's shareholders had a problem with the last board decision, Raymond asked Frank to book him a flight to Bhourne for next week. Frank arranged for Raymond to fly to Bhourne next Tuesday. Scarlett checked the weather there in the coming week and found it was also cold there. It had just snowed a few days ago, so Scarlett put some heavy clothes in the suitcase. The flight was scheduled to take off at 10:00 a.m. Scarlett and Raymond got up around 8:00 a.m. After breakfast, they headed for the airport. There was no direct flight from Juanton City to Bhourne, so they had to change planes in another city. The first flight took almost two hours. Scarlett easily got sleepy lately and she fell asleep quickly after getting on the plane. Raymond asked the flight attendant for a blanket. He rested her head on his shoulder and draped the blanket over her body. The attendant found they looked familiar, so she cast a few glances at them,
Chapter 1236Raymond looked at her and didn't move. "Hmm?""Come here first."She chuckled and looked at him with watery eyes, for she had just woke up.Raymond looked at her for a few seconds but finally moved over.At that moment, Scarlett gave him a kiss. "Here's your reward, Raymond."He raised his hand and touched the cheek that had been kissed. Then, his dark eyes sank slightly and darkened.Looking at Scarlett, who was eating her cake, Raymond twitched his eyes. Then he took the thermos, unscrewed it, and handed it to her.By the time the plane landed safely, Scarlett had almost finished her cake. She unbuckled her seat belt, and then Raymond had gotten up, turned around, and reached out to hold her hands.The passengers in economy class behind her were already pushing their way to the door. At this point, Raymond pulled Scarlett in front of him to prevent others from crowding her.The moment Scarlett got out of the plane, she felt the coldness of the capital. It was s
Chapter 1237Scarlett had just woken up, and her mind was still a little unclear. Only when she had been sitting up for a long time did she finally regain some of her consciousness. She pulled the quilt a little up. The room was very quiet. Although Raymond had lowered his voice, she could hear a few of his words, "Wait until my wife wakes up. Yes, put it off for half an hour."After hearing Raymond's voice, when Scarlett just looked in the direction where the voice had come from, her eyes happened to meet Raymond's.Raymond hung up and walked toward her. Seeing her sleepy eyes, he moved his dark eyes and touched her cheek. "Are you still sleepy?" Scarlett shook her head and rubbed the corner of her eye. "No."As she spoke, she turned her head to glance out the window. "It's dark now."Raymond responded. Then, he brought her clothes, put them on the bed, and reached out to carry her. Suddenly picked up by him, Scarlett subconsciously threw her arm around his neck. Rememberin
Chapter 1238The Chinese food that Raymond ordered was delivered half an hour later. It tasted much better than Scarlett had expected.Scarlett had little appetite on the plane. After she got to the hotel, she went straight to sleep. Now she had just woken up and felt very hungry. After the meal, Raymond asked her if she wanted to go downstairs for a walk. Scarlett shook her head slightly, "No. Aren't you going to RayPal Corporation for a meeting tomorrow?" "It doesn’t matter." Scarlett looked at him with a smile and said, "But it's so cold outside." Scarlett didn't like going out on cold days.Seeing that Scarlett didn't want to go, Raymond stayed in the hotel room with her. The room was equipped with a home theater system. Raymond chose an art movie to watch with Scarlett. Scarlett slept so long in the afternoon, and with the jet lag, she wasn't sleepy at night. She didn't fall asleep until nearly three o'clock in the morning. Raymond ac
Chapter 1239Hearing Raymond’s words, Mendes's face changed, "Uh..." "Mr. Fandel, my wife is pregnant, and she can't smell smoke." Raymond’s voice sounded calm, but Mendes could feel cold sweat trickling down his back. He dared not say anything but nodded again and again, "Yes, Mr. Shaw. I'll rearrange another private room right away!" He turned around, walked into the private room beside him, and then came out to ask the manager to rearrange it. Raymond looked at it with an indifferent face and thought, ‘It’s impossible that Mendes couldn’t tell Scarlett was pregnant. Knowing that Scarlett was pregnant, he actually arranged such a room. Obviously, he is not attentive. He has been the boss here for a bit too long. He thinks he is omnipotent, doesn't he?’Scarlett glanced at Raymond. Noticing he was silent, she pulled his clothes, "Is it appropriate?" Raymond looked down at her, "What's wrong with it? You are pregnant and can't smell smoke. It's a reasonable request." He smok
Chapter 1240Compared with Rick’s aggressive questioning, Raymond’s words were more daunting.Looking at Raymond, Rick was intimidated. But as Rick had experienced many things, he calmed himself down immediately. "Mr. Shaw, it seems that you are not sincere enough. You’ve been late, and now you even ask all of us to change a room.""Mr. Buckley, Mrs. Shaw is pregnant. We should be considerate!"Some people wanted to make peace, but Rick ignored them and continued, "You ask us to go to another private room. Is your wife more important than us?"Raymond would definitely give an affirmative answer. When Mendes heard this question, he felt embarrassed for Rick.‘Who is more important, Mrs. Shaw or us? Mrs. Shaw is definitely more important.’‘How can Rick ask such a silly question?’Raymond narrowed his eyes, his expression becoming colder. "You’re nothing compared with my wife."Then Raymond lowered his head slightly and looked at Rick in the eye.His expression was so icy that
Chapter 1241Raymond didn't care what the others thought. He took Scarlett and went straight into another private room. Scarlett got seated and took a sip of water, and then she asked, "Willie's is an old business, isn't it?" Willie’s Corporation was Dan Cotet’s company. Scarlett was not intimidated by them but felt that it would be a profitable business if Tenton worked with Willie's. Raymond cast a glance at Scarlett. He handed her the menu and answered, "Yes, it is, but it's not the only good business in the industry." Scarlett immediately understood what he meant. She looked down at the menu and ordered two specialties of the restaurant. She then handed the menu back to Raymond, her chin resting on her palm. "Am I to blame for the incident today?" Raymond knew Scarlett was joking, but he wouldn't allow anyone to have that idea. He grunted as he flipped through the menu, "They wouldn't dare say that." Then he made his order. Just as they finished ord
