GoodReadWhen Frank thought of those two weeks, he still felt sorry for Scarlett.
Scarlett would like to get off work in advance today. Of course, Frank felt happy about that.
Frank said, "Ms. Reed, it's raining outside. Be safe on the way." Scarlett said with a smile, "I see, bye." She waved her hand and walked into the elevator.
Scarlett got off work in advance and avoided the rush hour. Traffic flowed smoothly on her way to the villa.
She arrived at the villa within twenty minutes.
She walked out of the garage. It was quiet inside the villa. She didn't hear any noises.
She arched her eyebrows and guessed that Chris had fallen asleep after she left.
His flight was about more than ten hours. Besides, he couldn't fall asleep when he stayed in the hotel. He couldn't hold on anymore.

Scarlett poured a glass of water and drank half of it. Only then did she walk into the guest room.
However, after she pushed open the door, Chris was not on the bed.
For an instant, her mind went blank. She looked at the empty bed, walked over in disbelief and lifted the quilt.
But Chris wasn't under the quilt.
Where was Chris? Scarlett’s face turned pallor. She closed her eyes and tried to calm down.
Chris said that he would like to stay in the villa. Before she left for the meeting, he asked her what she would like for dinner.
The security system in the villa was rigorous. Also, the security guards were responsible. The strangers outside couldn't sneak in easily.
Besides, her villa was equipped with an Al housekeeper. If something happened in her villa, it would inform her through the alarm system on her phone.
Thinking of that, she calmed down slightly.
When she walked out of the guest room, she glanced at the suitcase against the wall. She became calmer.
After she walked out of the guest room, she stood in front of the couch. She thought about it and glanced at the third floor.
Chris wouldn't leave without saying goodbye to her.
She went to the third floor. When she pushed open the bedroom door, she saw Chris laying on the bed at a glance.
She was relieved finally.
He was still here.
She walked over but didn't touch him this time. She stood beside the bed for a while and turned around to leave.
Before she walked out of the room, Chris moved suddenly and made some noises.

She turned around and found that Chris had woken up.
She asked, "Did | wake you up?” He looked at her and kept silent.
Scarlett also kept silent. They looked at each other.
After a while, Chris said suddenly," Scarlett, come here." He had just woken up. His voice sounded hoarse.
Scarlett walked to him. As soon as she stood beside the bed, he grabbed her wrist suddenly. She was caught unprepared and fell into his arms.
His hug was warm like burning charcoal.
She was pulled into his arms. She felt as if she was surrounded by fire.
"Chris?" He hugged her from behind, lowered his head and kissed her cheek. He said, "I had the same dream again.” He paused as he added, "It's not a dream. It's true." He let go slightly, carried Scarlett in his arms and put her on the bed.
She fell into a trance. Before she reacted, he kissed her.
The temperature rose little by little on the bed, and the atmosphere in the room was getting intimate.
