"Well, Scarlett, this must be a misunderstanding. Let's go and ask Raymond!" Scarlett laughed. "You know Raymond and | have been divorced for more than a year." "But..." "That's enough." Scarlett raised her hand and closed the elevator.
Alexander saw the smile on Scarlett's face fade as the elevator slowly closed. He felt that something terrible might happen.

Alexander was so angry as if he were the one who was two-timed! He hastily took out his phone and called Raymond. Raymond even dismissed it.
Alexander called him again. Raymond answered the phone this time.
"Cto the smoking area next to the restroom. | have something to ask you." Raymond frowned. "I'm talking to my guest." "When you walked out of the elevator with Emelia just now, Scarlett and | happened to be standing at the corner to your right." "Why is Scarlett here?" "Cout first!" Alexander hung up the phone and walked to the smoking area to wait for Raymond.
Raymond soon cover. He was dressed in a suit, looking handsome. "Where is Scarlett?" "So you're asking about her now. Why didn't you ask when you sent flowers to Emelia?" Raymond coldly glanced at Alexander. "The flowers were not sent by me. She asked Frank to buy them for her." Alexander had intended to hit Raymond's head. Hearing what he said, Alexander was suddenly embarrassed.
"Well, what Emelia said was misleading." Raymond knew it, but at that tthere were not many people around them. Although he was not pleased, he didn't bother to say anything.
Alexander remembered what had happened at the airport. "Why was there a trending topic about you and Emelia?" Raymond looked stonily at him without speaking.

He was just about to say something to smooth it over when two female voices cfrom the front of them." Scarlett is really something! She married Raymond. Now she's dating his ex-husband's best friend! I've been in this circle for so many years. It's the first tI've seen someone who dares to talk to Alexander like this!" "Totally! But Alexander is all over her. Drunk driving? What a lexcuse! She's so awesome! She has turned Alexander's head!" "Of course! Look at her face! She can do anything with i t!" "Huh, I'm no match for her! Fortunately, she is not in showbiz. Otherwise, we would be upstaged!" Alexander soon saw the two people who were talking. They were two actresses that played supporting roles i n "Lost Youth".
Alexander felt a chill down his spine. He looked at Raymond. "Raymond, | can explain. | just had a meal with the cast. | told you before! | had planned to take Scarlett to a bar after the meal and then call you over.
| did that to help you get back together!" The more Alexander said, the more unconvincing he felt his words were. He gritted his teeth. "These guys don't put their minds on the right things! Don't stop m e. | have to fire them!" Meanwhile, he looked back at Raymond.
Raymond stared frostily at him without stopping him.
