That night, he lost sleep.
When his phone rang the next day, he knew he had overslept.
It was Scarlett's call, "You didn't just wake up, did you?" Lately, Raymond had always cto her villa with breakfast, but he didn't do it today. Scarlett had waited until 8:30 but hadn't seen him. She thought something had happened to him, so she made that call.
"Sorry, Scarlett, | overslept." Scarlett smiled, "Would you mind coming down and opening the gate?" After having heard Scarlett's words.
Raymond got out of bed and walked out onto the balcony.

It was Scarlett.
"Okay," He answered. Without hanging up the phone, he just ran downstairs.
Rarely in his adult life had Raymond been this excited. He almost ran down the stairs. It was only when he ran out of the yard and got a clear view of Scarlett at the gate that he slowed down. He walked to the gate and opened it, "What are you doing here?" "Can't | cover?" Scarlett looked at him and raised her eyebrows slightly.
Raymond took the breakfast from her hand and led her by the hand towards the villa.
Scarlett hadn't been in this villa since a year and a half ago. When Scarlett reentered the Shaw family's villa, she was calmer than she expected.
"Did you wash your face and brush your teeth?" Scarlett stood at the table and looked at Raymond who was unpacking the bag, which the breakfast was in.
He heard her and looked up at her, "Go ahead and eat, please." He handed her a glass of milk and a hamburger. Then he touched her head with his hand and went upstairs to wash his face and brush his teeth.
The milk was still hot, so Scarlett wasn't in a hurry to drink. She stood up and walked around the dining room to the third floor of the villa.
The interior decoration of the villa was basically unchanged. She had lived here for three years before, and she knew exactly where the things were in this villa.
The balcony was empty, and the roses she had grown for three years had gone nowhere.
Raymond cout of his room and saw her standing on the balcony. He walked over and said, "I didn't move those roses away." He remembered Scarlett growing a lot of roses on the balcony, but when he returned more than six months after the divorce, the roses were gone.

Scarlett glanced back at him when she heard him, "I really don't like them anyway.
Although she said so, she had been growing these roses for three years, and sof them almost died. She had saved them after much research, and after three years of careful growing, she had sfeelings for them.
"You can grow roses later. This time, no one will dare to throw them away." He held Scarlett in his arms and she looked up at him. She smiled and changed the subject, "What bad thing did you do last night?" Raymond let go of his hand, took her hand and walked downstairs, "Alexander is crossed in love." "Well, was Alexander in love before?" "es." Raymond made up the story without batting an eyelid.
Scarlett tutted, "Is that the girl we saw the other night?" "es." Scarlett smiled, "I wouldn't have thought of that." too." Early in the morning, Alexander sneezed several times and felt his ear itching as soon as he had arrived at the company. He had suspected that he had caught a cold and hastily asked his secretary to add svitamin C in the water and take it to his office.
'The vitamin C is really sour.
'Well, it can enhance my immunity, so I'll have to drink it." Alexander gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and drank it off.
