Half an hour later, Scarlett found herself in a luxurious salon. She decided to shut her mouth and just let the hairstylists work their magic; their imposing scissors scared her a little bit, but she decided to let whatever was about to happen just happen.

She was actually happy to get a haircut in this expensive salon that was way out of her budget, and she decided that even if the stylist shaved all of her hair off today, she would not utter a word of complaint.

After about two hours, the hairstylist announced that she was done.

Chuck hurriedly took her into the house and threw her on the sofa, fearing that his uncle would reverse his decision to let Scarlett stay at his place for the night.“Uncle Francis, I’m so sorry to bother you. But I can’t take her home since…you know, well, Tiffany is around. She’d get mad. But I don’t think I can let her sleep at the hotel alone either. So…please take care of her for the night.

Especially not when you’ll leave me stranded and go off to talk to some woman or another.”Chuck raised his eyebrows, “You really think I’m that kind of person?”Scarlett shook her head and said, “I was just kidding.

How long was the flight from Lisbon to Irving anyway? And didn’t you have a stopover in Dallas?”Scarlett rested her head on Francis’s shoulder and said, “Well, I wanted to go to bed early last night.
