GoodReadHearing this, Scarlett raised an eyebrow. " Why did you askthat?" Cindy pursed her lips, trying to tempt Scarlett. "He's poor now. He doesn't deserve you. Stephen is different. He's handsome, intelligent, and wealthy. He will inherit the James family property. You're a good match! Besides, if you marry into our family, | promise I'll give up my inheritance and give it all to my nephew!" Scarlett was amused. "Does your brother know you have such a bold idea?" Cindy laughed. "No." It didn’t matter if he knew about that or not. Cindy believed that Stephen would fall in love with Scarlett because she was so wonderful.
Cindy worshiped Scarlett blindly. Scarlett was her goddess.
Scarlett stroked Cindy's head. "If you want a sister-in-law so badly, just try to find one for your brother." Scarlett thought, "Don't always put your eyes on me. | don't want to get entangled with another man." Cindy was embarrassed. "Scarlett, my focus is on you, not my brother. | want you to be Stephen's wife. More precisely, | want you to be my family." Scarlett gave a wry smile. "Your brother is very nice. He will find a good wife." "I only hope that someone will be willing to marry him." Cindy thought it was very difficult for Stephen to attract a woman.
After all, Cindy once thought that Stephen, Jake, and the others planned to be monks in a monastery when they were old. They were simply celibates. Cindy was even suspicious that they were gay.

Cindy's mascara was smudged, but Scarlett didn't tell her that. "Okay." There was an open-air sky garden outside the side door. It was more than 100 square meters in size with two benches and a swing.
Scarlett felt cold in the hall. She was going to stay in the sky garden for a while and leave after Raymond finished talking to the others. She had no interest in socializing.
Seeing that Scarlett didn't want to go to the hall, Cindy followed her out to the sky garden.
It was hot in summer, and people didn't like to stay outside.
Scarlett walked slowly to her. "Do you need a push?" Hearing this, Cindy looked at her expectantly. "Yes, please.
"You can pushtwice." Scarlett smiled, gripped the rope, and gently pushed the swing.
There were blooming roses around the garden. The air was filled with the fragrance of roses.
The night breeze was soft and pleasant. Cindy was sitting on the swaying swing. She couldn't help closing their eyes with a sigh. "I feel so comfortable. | want to sleep." Cindy had been busy with work for a month. She didn't have tto relax until the project was completed this week. Cindy sat on the swing, leaning against the rope and yawning.
Scarlett looked down at her phone. "It's late. Let's go back." "Okay." Cindy sat up from the swing. Just as they were about to leave, three gorgeously dressed women walked in.
Cindy recognized those people. They were in the scircle and had met many times. It was hard not to know them.

They were true friends. Even though the Sheridan family was brought down, they still kept close contact with Yvonne.
Those women entered the garden, holding their cell phones. The night was dark.
Scarlett and Cindy were in a corner.
The three women sat down at the coffee table in front of the door. They didn’t notice Scarlett and Cindy.
"Yvonne, you know, once it's proved that Raymond is not Zacharie's son, he'll be driven out of Tenton and the Shaw family. Then you can go back." "Really?" "Yes. Everyone was talking about that this morning."
