“Oh, I’m sorry to hear that,” Mr. Underwood turned to Alice and said, “Make sure you sleep properly tonight, Alice.”
Then the group followed Mr. Underwood and headed to their residence in the village.
Everyone was relieved when they saw the house they were going to live in for the following month. It was located right next to the primary school, which meant it would be very convenient for them to get to the school every morning. Apparently, it was an old house but was clean and well-equipped with almost all the supplies they would need in their daily lives.
Everyone set their luggage down inside the house and immediately decided that the two girls would take the rooms on the second floor, and the four boys would share the two rooms on the ground floor.
“Good, good, everyone is right! I’m happy for you because you all learned some important lessons from the game! And one more thing I want to tell you is that our life is just like a basketball game– we have ups and downs in it, that is…sometimes we shoot and score, but sometimes we get blocked and find no way out…” Scarlett looked around and smiled at the crew of kids.“But no matter what happens, you have to stay determined and just keep going! Victory belongs to those who fight till the last minute. Just like our MVP today, Feynman Young!” Scarlett encouraged the kids to give warm applause for the most outstanding player in the game and then dismissed the kids for doing whatever they wanted.After another busy day, Scarlett returned to the house and laid down on the sofa. She suddenly realized that she hadn&rs
Hanging up the phone, Scarlett felt as though she had just been warmly embraced. But her thoughts were interrupted by a student who came over to invite them to the football pitch.When they arrived, they saw all the students of the school were gathering there, and the principal was standing in the front making a big announcement that they are going to have their own library and gymnasium by next year. Students were all excited to hear this good news, and everyone was cheering loudly.It turned out that the special fund for developing education in ill-conditioned areas also covered the fees for building supporting facilities like libraries and gyms.Since the good news came two days before the teachers were getting ready to leave the school, a big farewell party was arranged for them. They invited many students to jo
“I haven’t been in a relationship before…” Scarlett murmured. “I know it may sound ridiculous, but I’m afraid of commitment. But you’re just different. You’re so special to me, so I convinced myself to take a step further."“But you know what, I don’t know how to deal with a relationship. For the past twenty years, I’ve always been in a tug-of-war with my damn life, and I got no experience of truly falling in love with anyone. So I don’t really know what I’m doing when it comes to romance. You have to teach me, Francis. I need a coach.”Francis’s chest was warm, and Scarlett felt a great sense of security leaning on his body. This is what she had wanted to do most for the past ten days.Scarlett looked up at him, “I&rsqu
After lunch, Scarlett laid on the sofa, and Francis was about to leave for the company. Suddenly, she received a call from Eve, inviting her for a girl’s date.“Eve? Eve Crawford? Since when do you know her?” Francis frowned and repeated that name with a displeased tone. Because of Chuck’s engagement with Eve’s sister, Tiffany, he knew a bit of that girl and knew she was notorious for her extravagant and wanton lifestyle.Scarlett looked at his face and knew exactly what he was thinking about. She rushed to his back and said, "Hey, I can be friends with whoever I want. Don’t interfere in my personal life like that.”Francis was checking his schedule on the tablet, so he was scared by Scarlett’s sudden appearance behind him.
With her red lips and her sexy figure, Eve was wrapped in a form-fitting black dress that made her look like a dangerous rose. Scarlett, wearing the white dress with the low back, looked so stunning that all eyes were on her.“A small gift to our beautiful superstar.“ Scarlett was immersed in looking in the mirror and didn’t notice that Eve had left for the counter to pay for the two dresses.“Oh, sweetie, it’s too much. I will give you back the money.”“Come on, it’s my great honor to pay for such a gorgeous lady.” Eve gave a gentle pat and said.“Oh wow, are you, my new sugar daddy!” Scarlett jokes.“Oh yes! It’s my pleasure, my dear.”
(Warning: This chapter contains a sexual scene. If you're not comfortable reading it kindly skip it and move to another chapter) Eve was right; dancing really helped. She forgot, at least for that moment, those bad memories about love and hatred. She took off her coat, moved her body, and swung her hair without any restrictions. Her dance enlivened the bar all of a sudden, with more and more people joining in to sway to the music. A man was pushed forward by the crowd to dance with Scarlett. He and Scarlett danced intimately, touching each other’s shoulders and back and holding each other by the waist. Both Scarlett and the man knew this wasn’t flirting, though– he was gay, and Scarlett was just enjoying herself. There was nothing sexual or romantic about the situation.
Scarlett couldn’t resist that hot and heavy kiss and responded to it with her tongue. Her white dress was now split open till her waist, and Francis was gently massaging her breasts. That beautiful dress now hung from her body like a rag.“I don’t want to have sex in the study. I don’t know, but it’s kinda like…sacrilege? I don’t know what the right word is… I just feel kinda weird about it, you know?” Scarlett suddenly stopped the kiss and made an announcement that sounded awkward to Francis.Francis didn’t mind her words and quickly pulled the zipper. Scarlett shook her head, but it was just in vain. Because as she said, Francis’s always the one who calls the tune! All of a sudden, Scarlett felt her body was split open by fiery heat. Francis groaned and then peeled off the remaining white clo
While they were busy in the kitchen, Bell kept whining about how long it had been since she had gotten to spend time with Scarlett. She complained incessantly about how Scarlett had not been back at school in over a month. Without her, Bell had felt lonely. It had been no fun at all.“Damn, girl, I thought you had forgotten about me completely!” Bell pouted, making sad eyes at Scarlett.Scarlett hugged her tightly and said, “Hey, don’t be silly! How could I forget about my bestie just like that?”“Guys, stop! You all are so damn corny…” Niki pretended to throw up at Scarlett’s words and said.“Oops, somebody’s getting jealous. I’m sorry I’ve been ignoring you, babe.” Scarlett turned to N
