GoodReadThe hotel restaurant was really good. When Scarlett and Raymond finished their dinner, it was seven o'clock in the evening. It was dark and a bit cold at night. Scarlett wore a thin dress, so they went back to the room directly after the walk.
There was a theater room in the hotel room. It was a good thing to watch a movie during the long night.
At nine o'clock, Rowan called Scarlett and asked when she was going back. He would ask Larry to pick her up.

However, she didn’t know how to tell Rowan about it.
After thinking for a moment, she said, "1 won't go back tonight. Raymond and | will pick you up to go fishing tomorrow morning." Hearing her words, Rowan sneered, "Is Raymond beside you?" Scarlett turned her head to look at Raymond and smiled, "Yes.” "Give him your phone. | have something to say to him." "Grandpa, | have something to do, so I'm not going back." "Give your phone to Raymond." Rowan insisted.
Scarlett said, "Okay. Please don't get mad." Saying that, she handed her phone to Raymond, "My grandpa said he has something to say to you." As he took the phone away from her hand, Scarlett couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and cup her chin to look at him gloatingly.
She finally knew why Alexis was so fond of gloating.
It was quite amusing.
Raymond took the phone and looked at her, "Hello, Mr. Tank." "Mr. Shaw, although we don't live in a feudal and backward society anymore and many young couples live together before getting married, | don't have a good impression of you and | won't allow Scarlett to stay overnight at your place!" Rowan said directly.
Although Rowan didn't scold Raymond, it was obvious that he blamed Raymond.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Scarlett is joking with you. She didn't want to stay overnight at my place. We are watching a movie. When the movie is over, | will personally send her back." Saying that, Raymond looked down at his watch and continued, "It's twenty-five past nine now. | will send Scarlett back to the Tank family's villa before eleven o'clock at night.
Rowan sneered, "You'd better keep your word! Don't think that you've won because Scarlett likes you! You know very well what you've done before. Although | promised Scarlett to let her get back together with you, it doesn't mean | will promise you to get married! | just don't want to make Scarlett feel embarrassed, so you'd better behave yourself." "I got it. You can have a good rest." Raymond said calmly.
Rowan didn't know what to say. He had wanted to continue venting his anger.
However, Raymond didn't refute him. So Rowan didn't say anything more.
"Raymond, you are a man. You should keep your word!" "| always keep my word." "Heh, you didn't keep the vow you made when you married Scarlett in the past!" Rowan hung up the phone directly after saying these words and didn't give Raymond any opportunity to refute him.
Hearing their conversation, Scarlett said," Why did you lie to my grandpa?" "No, | didn't." Raymond handed the phone back to her and reached out to touch her head.
Scarlett looked at him and tsked, "Why did you lie to me?" "No, | didn't." He looked down at her and moved his dark eyes, "If Mr. Tank doesn't call you, | won't let you go."
