Chapter 1080"Good. Thanks. I got it."Scarlett responded with a smile. She calmed Alexis for a moment, then went out to let Justin in.She and Raymond had rushed over without lunch. And it was almost 2:00 in the afternoon.Scarlett was inside the hospital room with Alexis. Because she was worried about Alexis, she hadn't noticed that she was hungry.When she came out and looked at the packed lunch box sitting beside Raymond, Scarlett instantly felt her stomach was a little empty."Hungry?"Raymond reached out and touched her, and Scarlett nodded. "Have you eaten?""Not yet."Scarlett turned her head and looked inside the ward again. "Let's eat in the little garden over there."Because the ward was surrounded by the smell of sterile water, Scarlett felt that if she ate there, it would affect her appetite."Okay."The nurse guessed correctly that Alexis' cervix dilated from a width of two fingers to a width of three fingers in a short time. However, it took nearly four hours
Chapter 1081Alexis had just been delivered of the baby when she and the baby were both sent to the observation room. They had to stay there for two hours before they could return to the ward.Her family members were not allowed to go inside to keep her company, so Justin could only sit right outside the observation room.Scarlett gave a yawn. Raymond looked at her, lifted his hand and tucked her stray hair behind her ear. "Are you sleepy?""A little."It was 11 p.m. Scarlett and Raymond had stayed in the hospital for almost ten hours. Even at ordinary times, Scarlett would be drowsy at this hour, not to mention she had kept Alexis company for a whole day, consumed with apprehension from start to finish.Scarlett gave another yawn immediately after making a reply.At that time, her cellphone rang in her handbag.Scarlett looked at Raymond. He released her hand to let her get her phone.Scarlett pulled out her cellphone and glanced at the caller ID.The call was from Justin.
Chapter 1082Raymond didn’t let go of Scarlett in about five or six seconds. "Do you have a late supper?" Scarlett averted her eyes and answered softly, "Yes." This was the first time she and Raymond had come out for a late supper. Raymond stroked Scarlett's cheek and then leaned over to help her fasten the seat belt. Then he got out and walked to the other side of the car and started it. The car drove slowly out of the hospital. It was not long before Scarlett saw a lively night food street. Scarlett turned to Raymond, "Shall we park nearby?" "Okay." Raymond also saw the long street lined with snack stalls. This area was so different from the hospital. It was quiet at the hospital, while here it was very busy and full of liveliness. There was no parking lot nearby, so Raymond drove along to a square and parked there. After the car was parked, the two got o
Chapter 1083Scarlett seldom heard Raymond talk about these things. Now when Raymond mentioned them, she felt very curious. "Were you alone then?""Yes."Raymond responded and paused with her on the side of the road.There were not many pedestrians here, only one or two occasionally. After they crossed the road, they didn't walk very far before reaching the street where there were numerous food stalls. Almost every stall was crowded with people.Scarlett and Raymond chose the stall with the best online comments. They were very lucky, as when they arrived at the stall, some people finished eating and there was a vacant table. Scarlett dressed very casually today, and she didn’t put on makeup. But her face was so beautiful that as soon as she sat down, several male college students at the next table were attracted by her.Noticing the college students, Raymond knitted his brows. Then he exchanged the seats with Scarlett, so Scarlett sat with her back to those college students.R
Chapter 1084Scarlett turned off the hairdryer. Now, she felt sleepy and couldn't help but yawn."Are you sleepy?""Yeah."Scarlett nodded her head and raised her hand to wipe her eyes.Raymond took the hairdryer and lowered his head to kiss Scarlett on the forehead. "Go to sleep, honey. Good night.""Good night."Scarlett gave him a look and turned around to lie down. She then pulled up the quilt and quickly fell asleep.When Raymond came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, he found Scarlett was already asleep.He raised his hand and turned off the main light, leaving only the night light on.Scarlett was sleeping soundly. Raymond leaned forward and touched her face, but she didn't wake up at all.Raymond pulled up the quilt and tucked her in. Then he turned around and went out to the balcony.The night breeze in September was cool. Raymond looked at the dark night sky in the distance and thought of what Justin had said to him today. "Raymond, it is so painful to gi
Chapter 1085Scarlett hung up the phone and went downstairs. Raymond had also just ended the call.They looked at each other. Scarlett smiled and asked, "Are you getting busy?"Raymond reached out, held her in his arms, and leaned down to kiss her on the forehead. "No. It's about the news on the Internet."Hearing Raymond's words, Scarlett couldn't help tutting. "You've heard about it, right?""Yes."Giving Scarlett a bowl of porridge, he said, "Frank just called me."The next moment, Raymond's phone on the table vibrated. Scarlett raised her delicate eyebrows and glanced down at his phone. It was a message from Alexander.Raymond looked at Scarlett, picked up his phone, opened the message, put the phone in front of Scarlett, and asked, "Do you want him to refute the rumors?"Scarlett shook her head. "No."She indeed replaced Lola with the actress in her company through the nepotism. There was nothing to refute. Scarlett didn't care what others said.She could do that becaus
Chapter 1086Lola Harrell and the other leading roles of the crew were even letting their fans make it a major controversy like this. They ignored the fact that he, Alexander Smith, would be embarrassed, didn't they? He didn't show his anger, and they thought of him as someone easy to bully, right?Alexander put his mobile phone aside and made an internal call to ask his secretary in.Soon his secretary knocked on the door and came in. He had also noticed the online incident that had happened this morning. He had wondered if he should tell Alexander, but now it seemed that his boss already knew it. "Mr. Smith?" the secretary glanced at Alexander and said. "Have you noticed the online incident that has been going on these days?" "Yes, I have," the secretary nodded and said."Forget Lola. She's been kicked out of the crew. The other leading roles of the Youth crew allow their fans to say that I opened a back door for Scarlett's subordinate?"Alexander rarely got angry, but
Chapter 1087Lola originally only wanted to pretend to be innocent, but things developed beyond her expectation. She didn’t expect Scarlett to learn from her and set a trap for her. Twitter was filled with words scolding Scarlett all morning, but just five hours later, the object of those scolding words turned to Lola. Lola used to be a person who also relied on relationships to develop her career. She debuted in a talent show because of her first boyfriend's family. After signing with the company, Lola quickly broke up with her boyfriend and hooked up with a director's nephew, who was originally fickle in love. After just eight months, Lola got a second female role because of her new boyfriend. The two of them both got what they wanted.However, that TV show flopped and not many people had seen that show, so her popularity was still low. Later, the director's nephew took a fancy to another newcomer in the entertainment circle. At the same time, Lola also found a new man, so s
