Raymond had a dinner party on Sunday. He called and asked Scarlett if she wanted to go with him, but Scarlett refused.
Raymond had to go to the dinner party by himself. Frank could feel from a distance that Raymond was not in a good mood.
He glanced at Raymond and asked tentatively, "Mr. Shaw, did you argue with Ms. Reed?" Raymond glanced at Frank and wanted to scold him for asking, but after thinking for a moment, he asked," Frank, do you have a girlfriend ?" Frank, who had never been in love, answered, "No." He felt embarrassed at that moment because he was single.

Scarlett had lunch with Alexis and Justin on Sunday. Justin was going abroad next Tuesday, which happened to be his birthday, so the three of them decided to celebrate it together in advance.
They hadn't had dinner or chatted together for a long time. Scarlett had a few glasses of wine, so she called a designated driver to take her home.
After lunch, Raymond asked the driver to take him to Scarlett's villa.
He pressed the doorbell for a while, but no one opened the door.
The driver who did not dare to drive away could not help but ask, "Mr. Shaw, do you want to wait in the car?" The sun was blazing at this time.
Raymond drank a few glasses of wine at noon. He felt hot when he was standing in the doorway.
But he just wanted to wait for Scarlett. He watched the driver and felt that he was in the way, so he waved his hand and said, "You can go." Don’t get in the way of his date.
The driver nodded and said, "Okay." Scarlett didn't drive her car, so she cback for a taxi.
When the car stopped at the villa door, she saw Raymond.

She got out of the car in a little surprise. "Why did you cover?" "I want to see you." Scarlett blushed at his blunt words and walked over to find that Raymond had sweat on his forehead.
He stood in front of her villa in the scorching sun.
Scarlett felt warm in her heart and asked him, "How long have you been here?" "Not long." "Just over half an hour." Scarlett didn't believe it and asked, "Are you sure?" She opened the door with her fingerprint and went inside the villa.
After walking up to the second floor, Scarlett changed her slippers. She poured two cups of water and put one in front of Raymond. "You haven't answered my question." "It's almost half an hour." Raymond sat on the sofa with his head down and drank most of the cup of water.
Scarlett looked at him and chuckled. "You look stupid." Hearing her laughter, Raymond looked up at her and saw the smile on Scarlett's face. He felt hot in his heart, thinking it was because of the drinking at noon.
He swallowed hard and said, "You've waited forbefore, Scarlett." She used to wait for him for more than half an hour.
Scarlett froze and put the cup down. "Have you been drinking?" "I drank a little." "Do you want smedicine to sober up?" Raymond did not answer immediately. He looked at her for a moment and said, "Can | hug you?" Scarlett looked into his eyes and replied, "Yeah." She walked up to him. Raymond reached out and took her into his arms.
She was soft and smelled good. He just wanted to hold her like this and not let her go.
