GoodReadSince Raymond was so fond of meddling, she would give him a chance.
They arranged to meet in a restaurant named Clear Waters at six-thirty.
Scarlett cout after the meeting beginning at three o'clock. It was already five-thirty.
Katherine reported Jared's recent work in YetLeague. | t was already the end of February. The second round o f financing would start soon.

Scarlett heard that Ethen met with Stephen twice. Ethen was delighted these days, most likely because Stephen would help him deal with the matter of Centel, which was now an awful mess.
Katherine pursed her lips. "I haven't received any news about this." Scarlett nodded. "I see. I'll go first." "Okay, Ms. Reed." Katherine watched Scarlett leave. Remembering the bullshit Frank said that night, she couldn't help feeling angry.
What did he mean by "Mr. Shaw and Ms. Reed are a good match"? Pooh! Shon him! Scarlett didn't know that her excellent secretary had argued with Raymond's secretary for more than two hours over whether she and Raymond were well matched.
If Scarlett knew it, she would probably give Katherine an award like "Most Loyal Worker".
The car drove down the road, which was busy at six o'clock in the evening.
It was not the first tthat Scarlett cto this restaurant. She used to talk about business here.
She was familiar with the place. Twenty minutes later, the car was parked outside the restaurant.
The doorman saw her and led her in. "Ms. Reed, Mr. Shaw is already in the box. This way please." After entering the front door, another person led the way for her.
Scarlett made several turns before reaching Raymond's box.
"Ms. Reed, Mr. Shaw and Mr. Woods are inside." Scarlett glanced at the waiter and nodded with a slight smile. "I see. Thanks." She pushed open the door.
Raymond and Ethen were already inside. Scarlett didn't know what they were talking about. Ethen was smiling, while Raymond, who was sitting next to Ethan, had an unreadable face.
Ethen knew another person would ctoday, but he didn't expect it would be Scarlett.

However, Ethen had stayed for more than ten minutes. Meanwhile, Raymond didn't say more than three sentences. Ethen was the one who kept talking.
As Ethen wondered what Raymond meant, the door was suddenly pushed open. Scarlett, who was wearing a brown turtleneck and carrying a bag, walked in.
Ethen frowned slightly. "Raymond, what do you want t o seeabout?" He knew Scarlett was Raymond's ex-wife and didn't take her seriously.
However, Raymond, who had been cold before, changed his expression when he saw Scarlett.
He got up, pulled out a chair for Scarlett, poured her a cup of coffee, and gave her a hot towel to wipe her hands.
After that, Raymond looked at Ethen. "This is Scarlett." Ethen was upset. "I know. | saw Ms. Reed four years ago when you got married." Ethen's voice was dripping with sarcasm. Scarlett slowly wiped her hands as if she didn't hear it.
After that, she looked down at her wristwatch and then at Ethen. "Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Woods. | was stuck in a traffic jam." Ethen looked at Raymond and then at Scarlett. Finally, his eyes fell on Raymond's face. "Raymond, what do you mean?"
