“Come to visit us if you have time, Scarlett. See you!” She smiled and walked away with her friend.
Bell immediately asked, “Who even was that? Wanna tell me what the fuck just happened?”
Scarlett knocked back a full glass of icy lemonade to cool herself down. “Claire Morris, of course!”
“Wait, what? Morris? Are you related to her? Wait, is she your half-sis

I know her.”Scarlett leaned against the wall and said, “She’s my step-sister. Are you guys friends?”Eve raised her eyebrows with disdain, “Nope. I’ve got no interest in that kind of girl.

So I just couldn’t wait to end that nightmare myself…I’m sorry to cause you so much trouble…But I always trust you, I really do…” Scarlett was a little upset. She didn't want Francis to misunderstand the situation or her feelings either.“I promise there won’t be next time.” Scarlett looked up at him with watery eyes.“Never again.” Francis couldn’t help but hold her tight; he wanted Scarlett close to him, always.Scarlett’s heart was beating frantically, and her cheeks flushed red as if she had downed multiple shots of tequila.

As soon she got in the car, she was warmly welcomed by his passionate kiss.After a while, Francis stopped and said, “I’ve told you not to drink that much!” Scarlett got up from his arms. “You got drunk yourself!” Francis pinched her cheek softly.

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.
