When Raymond cupstairs, Scarlett had already poured two glasses of water.
She took a sip and then handed him the other glass.
Raymond took it over, drank up the water, walked to the sofa while loosening his tie, and said, "Scarlett, chere." Scarlett didn't intend to go, so she said, "I'll go upstairs and change my clothes first." Because of the meeting with Edmund today, she had dressed up formally. When Raymond hugged her just now, her clothes made her feel not very comfortable.
Raymond tilted his head while looking at her, and he didn't follow her up but remained on the sofa.

Frank was hesitating whether to call Raymond to remind him of the pile of documents to be signed and ask him to cback to the office euphemistically, and he hadn't expected Raymond to call himself at all.
Frank was almost moved to tears when he saw the caller ID, thinking Mr. Shaw was also nice occasionally! "Mr. Shaw, what can | do for you?" "Has the glass been made?" Frank had been full of anticipation, so he had not expected Raymond to ask about the glass as soon as h e opened his mouth.
He choked for a moment and then replied, "I've already placed the order, but it will be finished the day after tomorrow at the soonest." Raymond frowned, "Try to get it done as soon as possible! | don't care how much money it will cost." "... Okay, | got it, Mr. Shaw. This afternoon..." However, before Frank could finish speaking, Raymond interrupted, "Good! I'm hanging up now." Looking at his phone, Frank was about to have a mental break.
When Scarlett went downstairs in casual clothes, she saw Raymond hang up the phone, so she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Frank?" "No," Raymond lied calmly while looking at her.
Scarlett looked at him for a moment and asked," Aren't you sleepy?" Then, she pointed to the guest bedroom and said, "You should be familiar with the guest bedroom, right?" After all, he had slept there twice.
Raymond leaned back, and his collarbones were exposed because the top-two buttons of his shirt had been unbuttoned.
When Scarlett saw this, her face blushed. Because she didn't dare to look again, she said, "Would you like sfruit?" "Yes, please." Raymond watched her walk into the kitchen, and soon, she cout with a plate of sliced apples and strawberries.
And Raymond liked neither of them.
Scarlett put the fruit in front of him, smiled when he looked over, and said, "Ops! I'm sorry | forgot you don't like strawberry or apple." When Scarlett was smiling, the end of her eyes lifted slightly, and the smugness in her pretty eyes made her look like a cat that had stolen a fish successfully.

Seeing him keep silent, Scarlett thought he was angry, so she couldn't help but tut, "Raymond, Look! Your mind is so narrow!" She raised her hand, pressed her index finger and thumb together, and put her hand in front of his eyes.
Raymond grabbed her hand, pulled her into his arms, and said, "Yes, | am indeed narrow-minded." Seeing her trying to break out, he wrapped his hands around her body, and said, "Who is that man?" "He is my customer." He snorted, "Your customer looks handsome." Scarlett put a strawberry into her mouth and replied," Yeah, he is not bad." As soon as she finished speaking, Raymond asked an unrelated question, "Is the strawberry sweet?" "Yes! Raymond..." It was too sudden. Scarlett had just swallowed the strawberry and opened her mouth to answer his question, but he suddenly kissed her.
His fresh breath lingered around her, and she felt as if she was floating up and down.
Raymond's kiss was domineering and intense, so she was a little breathless. The breaths becheavier, and the hand around her waist pressed her harder as i f Raymond wanted to rub her into himself.
He had never thought that he would love someone so much, and he had kept thinking about her all the tbefore and after they had gotten back together.
When they parted, the look in Raymond's eyes had changed. He tried his best to restrain himself and looked down at Scarlett, whose face was flushed because of the kiss, and the bitterness in his heart had finally disappeared.
