Scarlett pursed her lips and said, "I chere to visit my grandpa." "| see," Raymond said in an obviously much lower voice.
Hearing this, Scarlett raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are you mad at me?" "No. Can | meet you in Deeton City?" It would take him less than half an hour from Fenton City to Deeton City by a highspeed train.
Scarlett thought of the words Rowan had said on the phone the day before yesterday, so she said, "You'd better not come.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOtherwise, you will be kicked out by my grandpa." "When are you going back to Juanton City?" "The day after tomorrow." "Well, I'll go to pick you up then," Raymond said decisively.
Scarlett smiled, "Mr. Shaw, what if paparazzi take photos of us?" Raymond lost his tongue for a moment and then said quietly, "If so, | will tell them the truth." Raymond knew it was just his pipedream because Scarlett wouldn't allow him to reveal their relationship now.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little uneasy, so he asked, "Scarlett, will you marry me?" After all, he had destroyed her fantasy of love and marriage.
Scarlett pursed her lips and said, "Not now." "Do you mean you will marryin the future?" Scarlett didn't answer the question. She felt that Raymond was much too loquacious today, so she asked, "Have you drank alcohol?" "Just a little," Raymond replied, and he guessed why she had asked such a question, so he added, "I'm not drunk." He was sober.
"Good! Go to bed early. Good night." "Good night." Finishing the call, she stared blankly at her phone for a while.
Scarlett didn't sleep well. It was probably because of Raymond's questions last night or the change of environment.
Rowan was getting old and woke up early in the morning, so she had set the alarm clock at 7:30 am.
She had cback to accompany him, so she would naturally not allow herself to spend most of the morning sleeping.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmScarlett turned off the alarm clock, got up to wash up, and went downstairs because Rowan might be practicing hexagram boxing in the garden. Viviana had also gotten up, and when she saw Scarlett, she asked, "Are you unused to the new bed?" Scarlett replied embarrassedly, "A little bit." Viviana smiled, "You will get used to it if you cback more frequently in the future." "I will." Scarlett smiled, and then she swung her legs and continued going downstairs to find Rowan.
"Good morning, Grandpa!" Seeing her get up so early in the morning, Rowan was also a little surprised, so he asked, "Why did you wake up so early?" Scarlett walked up to him and said, "Can you teachhexagram boxing?" "Hahaha, no problem! Con! Follow my movements!" Scarlett had never practiced hexagram boxing before, but she had a good memory and physical coordination, so she remembered the movements after Rowan set an example for her once.
"You are much better than Larry. He tried but failed to learn it!" Scarlett raised her eyebrows, guessing Larry had pretended not to be able to learn hexagram boxing on purpose.
Of course, she would not tell Rowan about it.
They practiced hexagram boxing for fifteen minutes and then went upstairs for breakfast.
As soon as they finished eating, a female voice from the stairs, "Aunt Viviana! Grandpa!" Viviana glanced at Scarlett and explained," It must be Jessie. She is your grandfather's brother's granddaughter." Scarlett nodded knowingly to Viviana when Jessie showed up in her sight.
It was the second tJessie had seen Scarlett. Her face becgloomy slightly at first, but soon, she returned to normal, walked over to Viviana, sat down, and asked, "Aunt Viviana, who is this lady?" "| am Scarlett Reed. Nice to meet you.” Jessie raised her eyebrows and replied," Ms. Reed, nice to meet you too. I've heard a lot about you." Scarlett smiled lightly, "Really? Maybe I'm indeed too famous." Scarlett's attitude made Jessie feel impotent as if she had thrown a punch on the cotton.
