Scarlett sniffed, "Don't you have any other feelings?" "| don't feel anything for any other woman but you, baby." Scarlett blushed slightly, "I didn't mean it like that." 'He's always a smart guy. Why can't he get what | mean now?" "I've never met her. | can't say." Raymond's answer was indifferent. And Scarlett had thought of it.
The two carried the watermelon out of the living room. Scarlett took a bite of it. Meanwhile, she heard Raymond ask her," You've been working with Suny for so long. Why doesn't she want to show up?" "My boss is mysterious.” Raymond looked at her and nodded," Indeed she is." Scarlett's heart beat faster under his gaze. She was a smart woman, both emotionally and intellectually. She felt Raymond was acting strange tonight.
Then she remembered that not long ago Katherine had told her that Frank was once again investigating her.
Scarlett had confidence in Katherine, and there was no way Frank could have found out anything.

Sometimes, for a certain thing, one could be sure of it without conclusive evidence.
Scarlett suddenly laughed at the thought. She drew a paper towel and wiped the back of her hand, which was stained with watermelon juice. Then she called Raymond with a serious look on her face," Raymond." Raymond wiped his hands too. He tilted his head and looked at her attentively, "Hmm?" "When did you know about it?" He looked at her, and suddenly, he curled up the corners of his lips, "Knew what?" Scarlett didn't hide it from him on purpose. It was all a coincidence. Now that they were talking about it, she decided to cclean, "lI am Suny." Raymond had already guessed it, but when he actually heard Scarlett admit it, he was shocked.
Who would have thought that Mornet's notorious boss, Suny, would be Scarlett that people and even himself once regarded her as a vain woman? To be honest, when he first speculated that Scarlett was Suny, he wished in his heart that he was wrong, so he would not blhimself for ever being so blind.
But looking at Scarlett, who admitted it frankly to him, Raymond knew he shouldn't have been so narrow- minded.
"I guessed it about a month ago, but I’m not sure of it." And tonight Scarlett admitted it herself. Scarlett muttered, "I didn’t mean to keep it from you." "I know." Raymond didn't know it before, but now he looked back on the past, and he understood now that Scarlett tried to tell him about it many times, but he refused her every invitation to talk.
He used to think that marrying her and making her Mrs. Shaw was enough for her. If she wanted more, he could only be sorry.
Scarlett watched the man in front of her, and suddenly, she was relieved of a lot of things.
Raymond wasn't a bad guy. Their three-year marriage had ended in divorce. She was responsible for that too.
She shouldn't have been so crazy in the first place. She thought Jean and Raymond were close, so she used that to get him to marry her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I shouldn't have used your mother to threaten you into marrying me. I'm sorry." She did owe him an apology. Somehow he had been forced with a wife who was a complete stranger to him, and the woman perhaps was on the sside as his selfish mother.
Raymond was dumbfounded at Scarlett's apology. He had mixed feelings in his heart.
Talking about the past, both of them felt regretful yet sober.
After three years of marriage, they had both grown up a lot.
Raymond looked at Scarlett and took her into his arms. "It's okay." If they hadn't gotten married and spent three years together, which was a mistake, perhaps he would never have known in his life that he would fall in love with this woman..
She was beautiful, gentle, brilliant, independent, and proud. She was similar to many women he'd met, yet she was so different.
Then he opened his heart to her and let her know the real him. At the stime, she brought sunshine into his heart.
