Scarlett looked up at Francis in astonishment. Francis was smiling and looking at her affectionately.
Francis stood up from his chair and began to say, “Scarlett...”
Scarlett leaned back against the chair and clenched her fists. Her heart started beating very fast; she felt overwhelmed by such a huge surprise.
Right then, one of the waiters came out of the shadows and gave Francis a big bunch of roses. Francis grabbed it and went down on one knee.
“I once proposed to you when we got a divorce because I decided to let you go. This time, I’m more sincere than las

As soon as the exchange program was over, Francis booked Scarlett’s flight back to America.Being six months pregnant, the intercontinental flight was no easy feat for Scarlett. She felt uncomfortable on the plane because she felt a searing pain in her back and waist no matter what posture she found. She had to keep getting up to go pee too. Overall, she suffered a lot on the plane.The stewardess came to ask her several times whether she was doing okay, and although Scarlett was chronically uncomfortable, she did not tell the stewardess anything about her discomfort. Instead, with a bright smile on her face, she said she was doing just fine. Scarlett took a deep breath and covered herself with the blanket. She turned her head to look out the window at ten thousand meters above the air.When the plane landed,

As Francis walked in, Scarlett lowered her head to stroke her belly, and a while later, she saw a familiar figure sitting down next to her.“I’m fine now. Are you scared?” she asked smilingly; although her small face looked pale, her eyes were still bright.Francis held her hand and said, “Scarlett, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault, if not because of me, you would not suffer so much like this...”He opened his arms and embraced her, and said, “I’m so sorry that I can’t feel your pain.”Scarlett was about to make fun of him, but before she could do that, he just kissed her face and said, “Scarlett, don’t be afraid. I will protect you, so don’t be afraid...”

He looked very serious, and his look was so scary that Carlos was practically moved to tears. When Scarlett saw that, she said, “Let me do it. You are scaring him now!”Francis shook his head and handed the spoon a little closer to him. Carlos’s eyes were becoming watery with tears because of the wrath of his father.“Carlos, you eat yourself, or I feed you? You are a little man now, and you shouldn’t cry so easily.”Scarlett coaxed him and said, “Oh, my sweetheart, you eat yourself; when you finish, I will tell you a story.” Scarlett held back her anger and put on a smile, and continued, “How about the story of the Three Little Pigs? That's your favorite story, right?”Carlos was interested, and then Francis pu

In order to keep her figure, Scarlett had devised a brand new diet aimed at reducing her belly fat. She had constructed it after doing hours of research on the Internet and consulting with multiple nutritionists. As a result, Scarlett ate her meals separately from everyone else in the household. While they feasted on barbecued meats, lavish cheeses from the south of France, and freshly baked loaves of bread, she ate only the low carb stuff. She made it a point to consume lots of vegetables, especially leafy greens, whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, millet, and beans, and lean meats like organic chicken and fish.Scarlett’s favorite snack to eat was her homemade makizushi– or rolled sushi. She made hers with brown rice, avocado, carrot, and cucumber as the main ingredients. On rare occasions, she might add a dollop of cream cheese, but she knew that the cream cheese wouldn’t do her any

How can you play games at this moment?” Scarlett said angrily as she snatched the PSP from her.Eve looked at her surprise and said, “What brings you here? You are carrying a baby right now! I’m fine, and you’d better go back home quickly and just rest, Scarlett. For god’s sake, it’s like you just don’t know how to rest.”“Eve, I’m here because I’m worried about you. I heard that you… you jumped out of a window… is that true? What happened? Why didn’t you call me? Why didn’t you try and reach out? Eve, I need to know

Eve had rushed after Scarlett, too, eager to see the two baby girls. Seeing the older one in all swaddled up like a burrito, Eve giggled and said, “Oh sweet girl, do you know who I am? I’m Aunty Eve. I’m your godmother!”Right then, Damon came to her from behind and pushed the wheelchair to walk forward. “Hey, what are you doing?” Eve asked.“Well, if you want to be a mother, you can have one yourself.” he smiled as he pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.Eve was pissed off by what he said and yelled, “Do you think that I can’t?”“Oh?

“Well, I want even the first few weeks of their lives to be marvelous and filled with joy. It doesn’t matter that they don’t really know what’s going on right now… I want to be able to show them thousands of pictures from their childhood when they’re older.”Scarlett nodded her head as she touched her chin and got ready to stand up, but Francis stopped her and asked, “What are you going to do?”Scarlett just looked back and smiled at him and said, “I want to go look for Carlos and tell him that his dad is already playing favorites.”Francis laughed and said, “Come back.”Scarlett retreated back on his lap and grasped his collar. “We have to treat all our children equally.”

When Scarlett woke up, it was eight o’clock in the morning. She rolled around in bed for a few moments before sitting up. Her head felt heavy.“You’re awake!” Francis said as he walked into the bedroom from the balcony. He smiled at her. “I thought you’d be out for hours. Aren’t you jetlagged? 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. No thanks to you, we ended up staying up so late! I barely got enough sleep. You’re exhausting me, Francis!”“Oh? Am I? I’m so sorry, Scarlett.” Francis teased.

He came to the balcony and lit up a cigarette and felt a little relaxed.“Brittany cried?” Scarlett asked in surprise.“Yep, she cried for over an hour,” he said as he breathed out a plume of thick smoke.Upon hearing that, Scarlett felt kind of guilty.

I’ll be gone for a month,” Scarlett said one evening.“Why do you have to be gone for such a long time? Can’t you just get one of your associates to go instead? What’s going to happen to us while you’re gone? At least try to see if you can come back sooner….” Francis moaned unhappily. He hated being away from his wife.“Carlos will take care of his sisters, and besides, Brittany and Shannon are very good kids.” Scarlett comforted gently. “You don’t have to worry about anything.”“I’m not talking about them.
