GoodReadThis was the most special birthday Scarlett had spent since the death of her parents.
She was 28 years old this year and had passed the age of being childish. She would not deliberately pursue her birthday to be surprising or splendid. However, when someone really surprised her, she found that she felt happy and excited.
It was already past midnight. She couldn't fall asleep and was lying on the bed.
Looking at the photos Alexis took for her on the phone, she could hardly fall asleep.
She had always thought that if Raymond didn't look handsome, perhaps no one in Juanton City would know who the heir of the Shaw family was.
He wasn't a high-profile person and didn't like the high-profile person.
However, he behaved so high-profile to give her birthday blessings in Juanton City. It was really surprising.

The night outside the window was getting darker and darker. Scarlett gradually fell asleep.
She had not dreamed for a long time. More than a year ago, when she had just divorced Raymond, she often dreamed of the day when she saw Raymond for the first time, and then she dreamed of her parents who died young.
She dreamed of the day 15 years ago. In the dream, Raymond didn’t leave after saving her. He had been holding her hand and walking forward. He did not say where he was going but kept moving forward.
Scarlett was woken up by the ringing of her mobile phone. As soon as she opened her eyes, she was stung by the sunshine from the gap between the curtains.
She subconsciously raised her hand to block it. After a few seconds, she realized that she had been in a dream just now.
Now she was awake.
Her cell phone was ringing. She reached out to take it, turned off the alarm, and yawned.
She had slept much later than usual last night, so she hadn't had enough sleep by the time she woke up.
But she would take the plane at 2:40 p.m. After lunch, she had to go to the airport.
Scarlett wanted to play a few more rounds with Rowan. She put down her phone, got out of bed, and went into the shower room to wash up.
When Scarlett went downstairs, all the members of the Tank family had gotten up. Viviana was talking on the phone with her friend, and Ben was reading the financial newspaper on the sofa.
"Ben, good morning." Ben nodded and smiled. "Good morning, your grandfather and brother are downstairs." "Okay." The butler stepped forward and asked if Scarlett wanted to eat porridge or drink milk. Scarlett thought for a moment and said, "I'd like a cup of milk. Thank you." She got up a little late. It would be lunchtime in two hours. Scarlett was afraid that she would have no appetite after eating too much.
After breakfast, she went downstairs to find Larry and Rowan. They were playing chess under the pavilion.
"Good morning, Larry and Rowan." "Have you had breakfast yet?" Rowan tilted his head and glanced at her. His expression was as kind as usual.

Scarlett didn't know if Rowan knew that she went out with Raymond last night.
Seeing that his expression was normal, she naturally wouldn't mention it.
On the other hand, it was Larry who saw her yawning. "Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Scarlett remembered that Larry did not return to his room until she came back last night. She could not help but feel a little embarrassed. She shook her head and said, "It doesn’t matter. | can sleep on the plane." It was rare for they had such leisure time. Time passed quickly, and two rounds of chess had come to an end in an hour.
It got hotter and hotter, but the pavilion was cool.
There were fruits, coffee, and snacks on the small table next to them. The three of them were very comfortable.
However, such a comfortable time was still disturbed. When Jessie came in, Scarlett and Larry saw her at a glance.
When Rowan heard the voice, he also looked over. Jessie and her parents were led into the villa by the servants.
The butler came over and said, "Miss Jessie and her parents are here."
