"You scared him," Scarlett reminded.
Only then did Raymond reluctantly let go of the boy. But he still would not spare him, "Delete whatever photos you've taken of her." Now with everyone around them and hearing Raymond's accusation, the boy's face turned red in embarrassment. But Raymond stood there with persistence, ignoring the persons around them.
Cindy finally figured out what had happened. She walked up to the boy, "Don't take it to heart. My friend i s not a public figure, and they just want to avoid being exposed on the Internet." "I won't post the photo online," the boy hastily explained.
Then he looked sincerely at Scarlett, "I'm sorry, miss, | will delete the photo now." Scarlett smiled friendly back, "It's okay if you want to keep it." The boy hesitated, but when he met Raymond's grim gaze, he deleted the photo.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith the problem solved, Cindy breathed a sigh of relief. She took a look at Raymond, and then she noticed that Alexander had also calong. She was a bit confused, "Why are you guys here, Alexander?" She hadn't invited them.
Giving Raymond a sideway glance, Alexander replied with a meaningful smile, "Then | must ask you why you didn't invite us while you've asked Scarlett to come.” Cindy had always been afraid of Raymond, but she found Alexander easier to get along with. At Alexander's question, she grimaced and answered," You two could not possibly like taking photos, do you? | didn't even ask my own brother to come!" While they were talking, Alexander saw that Raymond had gone to Scarlett’s side.
Although the two of them didn't seem very intimate in public, Alexander had noticed that Raymond could not take his eyes off Scarlett from the beginning.
Wow, another way of displaying affection then. Alexander just felt overwhelmed by Raymond's being s o obsessed. Fine, out of sight, out of mind. Alexander decided to leave them alone. "Hey, let us have sfun if you have enough of your photos," he said to Cindy.
What could Cindy do since Alexander had asked so cheekily? Seeing that Cindy didn't refuse his request, Alexander suggested, "Con, Scarlett, Raymond, let's take a photo with Cindy!" Exchanging looks with Raymond, Scarlett walked up t o Cindy with a smile, "No problem." Raymond followed her and stood between her and Cindy without hesitation.
Clearly he didn’t pay attention to getting the best group formation. Feeling a bit awkward, the photographer pointed out, "Well... advise that the beautiful lady stands by Cindy's side." It was really hard to get a good group photo with Raymond, a tall man, standing at the wrong place so obstructively.
Alexander cleared his throat, "I think the place besideis big enough for you." Why must Raymond choose that spot, making it impossible to film all the group? Raymond replied with a side-way glance at him, "I don't want to stand side by side with you." Alexander was speechless. He should have let Raymond calone! He thought.
In the end, Scarlett stood next to Cindy, with the two men behind them and Raymond behind Scarlett.
A while later, the photographer gestured at them hinting that the picture had been taken. But Raymond kept standing there and looking at Cindy, as casually a s he could, and asked, "Could you take a photo ofand Scarlett?" Hearing it, Scarlett turned around to look at Raymond, half smirking, "I didn't know that you like taking photos." Raymond lowered his head and looked at her. Though he said nothing to respond, there was a positive answer in his eyes.
Even Cindy could feel that there might be something between Raymond and Scarlett at this moment. But when she studied Scarlett’s attitude, she found that the fairy girl just stood there gracefully and didn't pay any more attention to the man at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'Oh, perhaps | was imagining things.' Cindy thought.
Alexander, on the other hand, knew exactly what Raymond was thinking. And he just could not bear to see Raymond being so brazen.
"Hold the pose, Scarlett. You look awesthis way!" As soon as Cindy finished speaking, Scarlett heard the man beside her whispering to her softly and slowly," You look beautiful from every point of view, Scarlett." Her heart beating faster suddenly, Scarlet felt her cheek burning hot.
"Ok, the photo is beautifully taken!" Cindy passed the camera to Scarlett and showed her the picture. When Raymond saw it from behind, he said to Cindy, "Remember to sendthe photo." Cindy was a bit surprised, but she agreed anyway.
She never expected that someone like Raymond would be interested in taking photos.
It was getting late, and Cindy's classmates urged her t o get changed so that they would not be late for the graduation dinner.
Cindy told her classmates that she was coming, but before she left, she could not help but ask Scarlett," May | ask what's your relationship with Raymond?" Alexander almost laughed hearing the question, "Isn't i t obvious that..." "We are just friends." Scarlett interrupted him in a casual tone.
Alexander turned to look at Raymond in disbelief, "I didn’t mishear it, did 1?"
