Scarlett hadn't been so excited for a long time.
Since Scarlett went to high school, she was much more sensible and mature than her peers. Later, more than six months after the college entrance exam, her parents died in an accident. Scarlett grew up rapidly. She gradually became more and more calm and reflective.
As excited and happy as she was now, it was when she was in elementary school. When Scarlett came home from school and saw a cupcake on the desktop, even though it was just a small cupcake, she felt very surprised and happy at that time.
Scarlett thought Raymond would prepare a birthday present for her, but she didn't expect he would actually come to meet her personally at the Tank villa on her birthday.
The housekeeper was about to lock the door when he saw Scarlett running out. He was stunned for a moment and asked, "Ms. Reed, where are you going?” "I'll go to the front door.” After answering, Scarlett pulled open the door and ran outside.

Scarlett ran in a hurry all the way. When she reached Raymond, although she stopped, she threw herself into his arms according to the inertia.
Hugging Scarlett, Raymond looked at her and said, "Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere." Hearing his words, Scarlett looked up at him with a shy look. "Why did you suddenly come over?" The fireworks behind Raymond had not stopped. The colorful light reflected on Scarlett's face. Raymond moved his Adam's apple up and down, suppressing his longing for her. "This is your first birthday since I've been with you." During their three-year marriage, Raymond had never spent any of Scarlett's birthdays with her. At that time, although Scarlett was his legal wife, she was just a stranger to him. Now that they were back together, he was longing to spend the rest of his life with her. Today was her 28th birthday. How could he not spend it with her? Scarlett looked at Raymond and smiled. " Did you prepare those fireworks?" Scarlett raised her hand and pointed to the fireworks that were still going off.
Raymond glanced back and replied, "Yeah." Moreover, Raymond rented the LED screens of all the squares in Juanton City as well as the small screens on the roofs of the cabs to write his blessings to Scarlett.
If Rowan didn't have a big problem with him, Raymond even wanted to rent the LED screens in Deeton City.
"Aren't you afraid that my grandfather will see these?" Raymond glanced at the villa in front of him and said, "He probably wants you to be happy today.” Scarlett smiled and said, "Thank you." After her parents died, she was quite insecure. Scarlett kept her marriage with Raymond during the three years because she always wanted a home and someone who would always be there for her and care about her.
Today, Raymond came to her. Scarlett suddenly felt that their previous failed marriage was not a bad thing.
What she had lost before was now regained.
It was not Hometown Day or any special holiday today. It was strange that fireworks were set off in the villa and it continued for more than ten minutes.
Rowan had already planned to rest. But the sound of fireworks outside the window continued. Rowan raised his eyebrows and turned around to leave the room.
When Rowan walked downstairs, he saw that Viviana and Ben were still inside the living room, so Rowan couldn't help but ask, "Who set off the fireworks?" The fireworks were set off at the right time and it happened to be Scarlett's birthday.
Viviana said with a smile, "You will know if you go to the balcony." Viviana only knew Raymond, but she had never met him. She did not expect Raymond to do this tonight.

She and Ben were romantic when they were young. What they did wasn’t as exaggerated as the fireworks, but it could be considered romantic.
Now looking at the young people, Viviana reminisced about the past with emotions.
Rowan was confused and went to the balcony, but he did not expect Larry to stand on the balcony.
Seeing Larry looking downstairs, Rowan hummed, "What are you looking..." Rowan stopped in the middle of his sentence. Even though he had bad eyes, he saw a man and a woman standing in front of the villa.
Rowan was old and had poor eyesight. At a distance of more than ten meters, he could only see a man and a woman standing there.
Why would there be a man and a woman standing in front of his villa in the middle of the night?
