GoodReadThe 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.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAren'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 htheater 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 accompanied Scarlett, so he didn't go to bed until nearly three o'clock either. When he got up after dawn, his dark circles were obvious.
Scarlett felt sorry for him. She wanted to apply a hot towel to his eyes to eliminate the dark circles, but Raymond stopped her and said, "Mrs. Shaw, you just rest. | am going to the meeting later. After it, we'll fly back to our hcountry." Scarlett fell asleep very late and got up so early. Raymond regretted letting her cto Bhourne with him.
Raymond and Scarlett didn't stay long in Bhourne. They only stayed for three days before flying to their hcountry.
Back in the capital, Raymond happened to have a cooperation project to discuss. So they planned to stay in the capital for a few days.
After they got off the plane and went to the hotel, Scarlett slept for about three hours. It was almost seven o'clock in the evening when she woke up. She looked at Raymond, who was pouring water for her," You are going to have dinner with sbusinessmen tonight, aren't you?" "No rush." Raymond cto Scarlett and handed the water cup to her. Then he took out the sweater, scarf, and gloves from the suitcase and put them aside.
Scarlett saw it, laughed, and said, "You don't wantto wear them, do you?" "It's cold outside," Raymond responded and then helped Scarlett get dressed.

The car was already waiting downstairs outside the hotel lobby. The hotel wasn't far from where Raymond was going to have the business dinner. Although it was already past seven o'clock, Raymond did not ask the driver to speed up. The car drove smoothly all the way.
When they arrived at the restaurant, they were nearly twenty minutes late than the scheduled dinner time.
Raymon took Scarlett by the hand and walked slowly out of the elevator. Mendes Fandel, who was waiting for him, was already blushing with anxiety, but he did not dare to urge Raymond.
Before entering the private room, Raymond stopped, looked at Scarlett, and said, "Wait a minute." Saying that, Raymond looked at Mendes," Mr. Fandel, please go in and see if there is any smell of smoke. If there is, let's change the private room.” Mendes was stunned for a moment. Then he nodded quickly, "Okay, Okay, Mr. Shaw." Scarlett stretched out her head and tried to look into the private room. Then she looked at Raymond and said, "I'm not that delicate.
Raymond squeezed the palm of her hand, "I care. The smell of smoke harms you." Raymond said this in a low voice, and Scarlett felt a slight heat on her cheeks.
"Mr. Shaw, the smell of smoke has gone. You and Mrs. Shaw.." "Change to another private room!" Raymond didn't look at Mendes. He hadn't smoked these years, and no one would let him smell the smoke where he went.
Raymond didn't want to cto this dinner. Mendes had made several appointments with him before he agreed, and Raymond had made it clear in advance that he would bring Scarlett.
There was even someone smoking where he was going. Didn't these guys know his habits over the years? And with Scarlett here today, Raymond wouldn't let it go easily.
