GoodReadFrank sighed with relief when he saw Scarlett. "Ms. Reed, there you are." He deliberately called her nfrom a distance.
As expected, Raymond, who was sullen inside the office, obviously softened his expression after hearing Frank's words.
Scarlett glanced at Frank and said with a smile, "You've done hard work." Frank was embarrassed to meet Scarlett's eyes and smiled. "It's my job, Ms. Reed." Then, he made an excuse to go back to his office.

"Aren't you busy?" "Yeah." After glancing at the project plan in front of Raymond, Scarlett asked, "Are you not in a good mood?" Raymond shook his head and said, "No." He wasn't in a bad mood. He just didn't like to waste words.
It took more than two months to change the plan for the new project, but he did not expect the plan handed to him to be of no use.
Scarlett did not ask any more questions. After all, Raymond didn't interfere with her company’s affairs and she wouldn't do that either.
Although Scarlett rarely got angry, it did not mean she was good at being fooled. If her subordinates didn't do a good job, she would definitely do something.
"Are those reporters still there?" Raymond knew that the reporters were gathered outside MoCorporation, so he asked Frank to help deal with i) "When | went back home, | found two reporters in front of the villa as well." Scarlett paused for a moment and said, " I've asked Katherine to handle it." Katherine had been with her for so many years and was good at handling these matters. Scarlett personally took pictures for her, so Katherine knew how to handle this matter.
Raymond nodded. Looking at her, he felt that his mind wasn’t on the job, so he asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?" At this time, Frank's assistant knocked on the door and brought a cup of coffee to Scarlett.
"Here, a cup of coffee, Ms. Reed." Scarlett took the coffee and said with a smile, "Thank you." The assistant said hurriedly, "You're too polite." Then, he went out.
Scarlett looked down while taking a sip of coffee. Then she looked at Raymond and said, "You're quite scared.” The assistant cto the office and brought her a cup of coffee, but he did not dare to look at Raymond.

Scarlett thought for a moment and said, "I ate the roast turkey with Alexis at noon. | want to eat something light tonight." "Italian food?" "Okay." Alexis just said that an Italian restaurant had recently opened in Sunrigal Square and the dishes were quite authentic.
The restaurant just opened but it attracted many people. When Scarlett and Raymond arrived, most of the seats were occupied.
Frank booked a small private room for them in advance. When Scarlett and Raymond arrived at the restaurant, the waiter suddenly found them and asked them if they could give up their private room, because it was the first tfor this family to celebrate the birthday of their elders. This family didn’t book a private room in advance and there was no enough seat for them in the lobby. There were 11 of them and only the private room could accommodate them.
This was not the restaurant's responsibility, but the restaurant manager was willing to give Scarlett and Raymond a 20% discount on their meal in order to get them to agree.
Scarlett glanced at Raymond and was just about to speak when she heard a woman from the family suddenly say, "There are only two of you. Why do you need a private room? Give it to us, so you can get a 20% discount.
You have nothing to lose." Scarlett raised her eyebrows and looked at the woman's family members. Scarlett originally thought they would rebuke that woman for being rude, but she didn't expect that they looked like they were taking it for granted.
Scarlett looked at the manager who was in a dilemma and said slowly with a smile," Sorry, | don't wanna give it to them."
