It was past eleven o'clock p.m. Wrapping her arms around Raymond's neck, Scarlett was carried out of the bathroom and put to bed gently by Raymond. Thinking that her phone had just vibrated several times, she went down the bed and was about to go downstairs to get it.
Raymond stopped her, "What are you going to get?" "My phone." After she had finished her words, Scarlett raised her hand and touched her hot cheek, "And my watermelon." She only ate one bite of such a sweet watermelon.

As soon as he had smiled, the cold in his eyes disappeared. He looked at her with gentle eyes. "I'll go downstairs and get them." "Okay." Scarlett answered, pulled the thin quilt that lay beside her and covered herself.
Watching Raymond walk out of the room, she couldn’t help but look down and smile.
Raymond soon returned with a plate of watermelon and her cell phone. Scarlett took the phone and blushed when she saw the phone screen showing two missed calls from Larry. Larry called her forty minutes ago.
Scarlett didn't intend to call Larry back. She hadn't called him back for nearly an hour, and if she did, he would probably guess what she had been doing.
Scarlett's face was getting hotter and hotter as she thought about what had just happened.

Scarlett pretended to be angry at him but smiled, "Do you wantto be scolded?" Larry would have cover from Deeton City to see them if he knew Raymond had been staying at her villa every day and had refused to leave.
Raymond looked at her, "He won't scold you. He'll only scold me." Scarlett didn't believe him, "I'll call him back tomorrow myself." Because she had to call Larry back, Scarlett woke up around seven o'clock the next day. Raymond, who was behind her, frowned slightly, "It's still early." "I'm going to call my brother back. " Scarlett struggled and sat up with her phone, "I'll go outside." When she was about to walk out of the room after finshing her words, Raymond, who was in bed, reached out his hand and grabbed her, "Make the call right here." Scarlett glanced back at him, "Okay." Larry, who was on the other end of the phone, answered the phone quickly. A few seconds after Scarlett dialed, he answered," Scarlett?" "Good morning, Larry." Scarlett said and then paused, "I went to bed early last night." Larry knew she always went to bed early.
"| see. Your birthday is coming up. Grandpa asked if you want to go back to Deeton City and have a party?" Scarlett withdrew her hand that was held by Raymond and replied, "I'll go back and have a meal with you." It was the first year Scarlett returned to the Tank family, and she naturally wanted to celebrate her birthday with them.
Scarlett had long thought about how she was going to spend her birthday this year. She planned to celebrate her birthday in Juanton City in advance and share a birthday cake with the Tank family on her birthday.
Larry knew what she meant, "OK, I'll talk to Grandpa." He paused and then said, "Does Grandpa know about you and Raymond?" "He has already known." Scarlett was a little confused and was afraid to tell Larry that Raymond was in her bed right now.
Larry didn't want to say anything more," Then you'll have to be prepared for this trip home. Grandpa is not as easy to deal with as | am." Scarlett was a little confused at first, but soon she knew Larry was talking about Peyton.
She was a little embarrassed, "I see, Larry." "Okay, take care." "You too, Larry." After she had hung up, Scarlett glanced at Raymond, "Guess what my brother said to me." Raymond hugged her from behind, "He asked you to break up with me?" Scarlett shook her head, "If my brother had askedto break up with you, he would have takenback to Deeton City.” "Does your grandpa want you to meet someone?"
