After Scarlett walked into the elevator, she looked at the slowly closing door. After a while, she raised her hand and pressed 28.
It was her birthday today, and she missed Raymond very much.
But she knew that Raymond was busy doing his own business in Bomsville. He had lost his memory, so she couldn't ask for too much from him now.
She happened to have come to the apartment building where Raymond used to live. Scarlett was a little blue tonight, so she didn't want to go back to the villa.
Although the apartment had stood empty for nearly two years, there were many traces of Raymond's life in it.
It only took about twenty seconds for her to go from the 13th floor to the 28th floor.

When the elevator door opened, Scarlett perked herself up, raised her head, and walked out.
It was the second time she had come up to Raymond's apartment. Scarlett took a few steps forward and arrived at the door.
The password was her birthday.
Scarlett input the password, and the door opened with a click.
Scarlett raised her hand, pushed the heavy door open, walked into the hallway, and subconsciously fumbled for the switch of the light. After pressing it, she remembered that the main switch had been turned off.
Scarlett chuckled lightly, took out her phone, and turned on the flashlight. But when she looked up, she suddenly noticed there was a light in the living room.
Scarlett was slightly scared. But she knew this apartment had a good security system, so burglars could not enter at all.
Soon, Scarlett found that the light in the living room was from a little balloon.
Scarlett was stunned for a moment and then walked through the hallway into the living room, only to see the TV was on and some words were popping out on the screen one by one, saying, "Happy birthday, Scarlett.” The room was still quiet, and there was no human voice.
The ceiling was covered by floating balloons, and the lights inside the balloons suddenly lit up and illuminated the living room. Only then did Scarlett see a card on the coffee table.
Scarlett leaned over and picked up the card. It said, "There is a surprise in the master bedroom." Scarlett raised his eyebrows slightly, walked around the sofa, and went toward the bedroom. Only then did she notice that there were red roses on both sides of the passage.
The roses were all dotted with flickering little light, forming arrows pointing the way to the master bedroom.
When Scarlett arrived at the master bedroom, she found the door was not locked. She pushed it open and saw yellow light inside. The huge master bedroom looked incredibly beautiful and romantic.

But Scarlett still didn’t see anyone.
Some small flashing lights formed an arrow on the ground and pointed to the cloakroom.
Scarlett took a glanced at the bed, which was covered with roses and flashing lights. There were many romantic and beautiful bouquets in the room, so it was full of the fragrance of roses.
Scarlett retracted her gaze, turned around, and walked into the cloakroom.
As soon as she got in, the man sitting on the stool stood up and said, "Happy birthday, Scarlett." Scarlett looked at Chris and couldn't tell whether it was a dream. She said, "Why are you here?" "Because it's your birthday." Chris looked at her with a gentle smile in his black eyes.
Scarlett walked over, handed the card to him, and said, "Did you prepare it? Did Alexander tell you..." Before she could finish speaking, Chris suddenly fell to one knee on the ground.
Scarlett was surprised, looking down at Chris who was kneeling in front of her, and she seemed unable to understand what was going on.
"I know it's a little sudden, but since | regained my memory, | have been thinking of proposing to you. I've endured it for 52 days, and I finally got the opportunity today. Ms. Scarlett Reed, will you marry me?"
