Though she was not in the car, the car was deformed after being hit. When she answered a call and rushed to the scene, the doctor told her that Raymond had died on the spot.
When Scarlett heard this, she suddenly woke up.
When she opened her eyes and looked at the white ceiling, she realized that she had had a nightmare.
She reached out to take the phone beside her and looked at the time.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was almost nine o'clock.
"Hilla, open the curtains." After Scarlett washed up, she went downstairs and found Raymond making breakfast.
Thinking of that nightmare, she was still terrified. She walked over to hug him from behind. "Why don't you order takeout?" "Woke up?" "Yeah." As soon as she looked up, she saw the gauze on his forehead, "Does it still hurt?" Raymond looked pretty poor.
"It doesn't hurt anymore." She smiled. "I'm not a child." How could it not hurt? Raymond lied, as he just didn't want her to worry about him.
Raymond scooped a spoonful of porridge for her. "Taste it." Scarlett opened her mouth and ate porridge. "It's very fragrant and delicious." Raymond smiled.
She was about to walk to the dining room when her phone rang.
Raising her eyebrows slightly, she turned around and went out to answer the phone." Hello, Larry?" The call was from Larry. And Scarlett knew that Larry was worried about her.
"Were you injured?" "No." Scarlett was afraid that Larry would not believe it, so she added, "Just my hand was bumped, and it was a little swollen. And Raymond's forehead was grazed." "Well." Larry responded, "What happened last night? Did someone from the Shaw family ask speople to attack you?" "No, | encountered a drunk driver." Larry was not very convinced. "Have you checked the driver out?" When members of a wealthy family vied for property, they may use smeans to kill their rivals.
"Raymond asked someone to investigate." Then Scarlett said, "In the morning, Ryker reported that Raymond was not Zacharie's son. We also met Ryker at the dinner last night. He wouldn't be so stupid to ask speople to harm Raymond so quickly." Larry at the other end of the phone was silent for a while. "Perhaps it is better for you to stay away from Raymond for a while.
Scarlett knew what Larry meant, but she was unwilling to do so. "No, Larry." "Okay, | know." Larry knew that she was fine, so he stopped asking. "Go deal with your things. Be careful." "Okay, bye." Raymond had already put the porridge on the table and sat to wait for her.

"How about earning money to supportin the future? Scarlett couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "No problem." She took the spoon and scooped the porridge. Remembering what Larry had just said, she asked, "Did Frank find out anything?" Raymond shook his head. "The driver just drove under the influence. It hasn't been found out whether the driver hit us intentionally." It had nothing to do with Ryker.
"Well." Scarlett didn't ask him any more questions.
This matter indeed had nothing to do with Ryker, but most people thought that Ryker did it.
As a result, speople began to question what Ryker had reported, as Ryker had been coveting Tenton for many years, and many people knew his intention.
But these people didn't know who designed the car accident and just expressed their opinions.
Though the accident did not have a big impact on Scarlett and Raymond, it impacted on speople greatly.
