Scarlett subconsciously tightened her hand when she heard the sound of the belt colliding with the metal.
She was more than twenty centimeters below Raymond, but that was no problem for Raymond, who lifted her with ease.
At that moment, the land disappeared beneath her feet. She grunted and leaned forward over the edge of the washbasin.
Scarlett shivered as she leaned against the cold marble.
Raymond wrapped her in his arms and kissed her passionately. His hot breath fell on her face.
"Honey," he called her affectionately.

Staring at Raymond, Scarlett became so besotted with him.
'God, how can this man be so charming! He’s gonna kill me!" The sunlight in the bedroom was a bit harsh. Scarlett narrowed her eyes when she was taken out of the bathroom. Then she tried to screen her eyes from the sunlight with her hand but had no strength to raise her hand.
Raymond put her on the bed. She pulled the quilt over her, took his large hand, and pressed it against her face.
It was the first time she had taken the initiative to him.
Enjoying the moment, Raymond looked at her fondly. The warm sunshine seemed to melt his usual glacial expression.
Scarlett felt tired and sleepy. She halfclosed her eyes and mumbled, “Can you sleep with me for a while, Raymond?" Her tender voice melted Raymond's heart.
He then lay down beside her and took her in his arms.
Scarlett held his forefinger and closed her eyes, "What were you gonna say?" She sensed that he had meant to say something.
Raymond just held her hand and said nothing.
Before he replied to her, she fell asleep.
The room was quiet. Raymond kissed her on the cheek and whispered, "I want to marry you." He knew she wasn't going to say yes easily so he didn't have the courage to say it.
He then held Scarlett tighter and fell asleep. After a long time, the doorbell suddenly rang. Hardly had the doorbell rang than Raymond woke up.
While Scarlett was still asleep, Raymond carefully pulled his hand back, got up, and went downstairs to open the door.

It was Frank who was there to deliver the ingredients and documents.
Raymond didn't go to the company in the afternoon, and Frank had a hard time.
Raymond didn't want to go to work, and Frank couldn't do anything about him as his secretary.
Frank didn't want to bother Raymond, but the document was urgent.
He finally plucked up the courage to say," This document is really urgent, Mr. Shaw." Fortunately, Raymond was in a good temper and signed the document readily. " All right, here you are," Raymond handed Frank the document and took the ingredients from him.
Frank sighed with relief. Thinking of Jasmine, he added, "Mr. Shaw, I've already contacted Mr. Garcia, and he said that Miss Garcia will not disturb Ms. Reed again.” "All right, I got it." Then Raymond returned to the villa.
Standing outside the gate and looking at Raymond's back, Frank thought, 'Ms. Reed, please marry Mr. Shaw as soon as possible. We really can't hold on much longer."
