“Fuck! Don’t get me involved in this shit! I’m not going to your house. Let me go! I don’t wanna be a part of your plan!” Scarlett couldn’t be more regretful. She wished she hadn’t helped him out at all. All she wanted to do now was get out of the car and leave.

But it was all too late. Chuck’s Adlington supercar was already well on its way to Sandler’s villa.

Before Chuck and Scarlett arrived, Francis and the other family members had already finished eating dinner. Francis was in the hall talking to his father and elder brother, George.

“I heard that your company recently nailed down a government project in Riverside City.” The old Sandler took a sip of tea and talked to Francis.

Francis was clearly not p

    George, Francis, and the old Sandler finished their conversation and came out from the hall. At the same time, Chuck’s mother, Victoria Livingston, also walked downstairs from her room. She was wearing a long green silk dress, with her blonde hair hung loose down her back.Scarlett was amazed by her beauty. In return, Victoria was also impressed by Scarlett at first sight. She was about to ask who the girl was, but another voice came ahead of hers.“When did you come here?”Francis recognized the familiar figure sitting next to his mother as soon as he walked out of the hall. He was struck by a complex feeling: a combination of shock, delight, and anger. He was directing his query at Scarlett, and now everyone had fixed their gaze on the fresh visitor amongst them.

    As soon as the holiday season was over, Skyler was about to embark on his adventure to Britain to pursue his studies. Scarlett had been busy as a bee trying to get everything in order so he could leave without a care in the world. Almost every single day, she would peer at Skyler’s luggage and keep adding more stuff.Two days before departure, Scarlett visited Skyler’s hostel again.“I think I’ve finished with all the packing,” said Skyler.“Oh, okay. Let me double-check the list for you, though. C’mon, hand it over.” Scarlett offered.“Did you pack your down jackets and windbreakers?”“Yeah, but just one overcoat. It’ll be too heavy otherwise. I’ll

    One man was seemingly checking if the two persons in the flesh matched with the photo on his phone. After he had double-checked with careful scans, the two men walked a few steps toward Skyler and Scarlett. One of them said respectfully, “Good evening, Mr. and Miss. Morris. Welcome to London! Mr. Sandler sent us to pick you up. The car’s ready for you there.”Skyler thought they were some scammers or con artists in the first place until he heard the familiar name “Sandler.” Scarlett was unexpectedly calm, and she declined the kind offer politely, “Thank you, sir. But don’t bother, we can take a taxi.” Scarlett turned around and was about the leave. The man stopped her by saying, “Sorry, Miss. Morris. Can you wait for a second? Could you just hold on for a moment?”The other man quickly dialed a number

    Francis seemed to be attending a meeting. He interrupted the presenter and walked out of the meeting room.“Listen, Scarlett. Two other Cambridge students rented the house, which means Skyler will actually have two roommates. I’ve investigated their backgrounds, and they just seem like regular kids. You don’t have anything to worry about.” Francis explained to her patiently.“But…but you didn’t even ask me before you made these decisions? I am his sister!”Francis leaned against the wall and crossed his arms in front of his chest. “I didn’t ask you because you didn’t want to talk to me.”Scarlett was stunned and couldn’t find the words to argue with Francis at all. But obviously, Francis didn&

    Scarlett was made sober by his words. She urged, “What do I have to be afraid of anyway? I have not done anything wrong!”She sat up straight when she yelled at Francis, but Francis wore a gentle and affectionate smile on his face. Scarlett had not looked at him, so from such close quarters in over a month, his elegance and charm caught her off guard. So, she kept staring at him and couldn’t move her eyes away.Francis leaned on the bedside; he touched Scarlett’s face gently and cautiously. “I’m so sorry for what I said that day, babe.” His voice was low and a bit hoarse. Scarlett could practically hear the guilt dripping from his words. She felt that his gentle touch and soft voice had almost healed her wounds. But she pinched her own thigh to warn herself to remain reasonable and remember the deep pain he had caused h

Francis stretched out his hand and moved from Scarlett’s back to her waist, soft and gentle.“No way!” Scarlett buried herself in the bed. Francis pulled her into his arms and caressed her gently. “You’ll sleep even better after great sex, babe.” He whispered into her ear, trying to seduce her.Francis had, after all, been celibate for mo

    “What do you mean? We’re boyfriend and girlfriend, aren’t we? Why shouldn’t we live together? That’s the real question…” Francis leaned on the door and stared at Scarlett with his hands in the pockets of his trousers. If they had not been in the middle of a dispute, Scarlett would probably have admitted that his posture was sophisticated and attractive.“Just because I’m your girlfriend doesn’t mean I don’t get to have my private space and time to myself.” Scarlett raised her voice.“You can do whatever you want. I will not interfere in your personal life. But living together is the most basic tenet for two people who are in a relationship.” Francis answered very patiently. He was the one begging her to stay, after all. He needed to be careful with his words so as not to upset

    Chuck looked at the rearview mirror and backed the car. He was grinning ear to ear, and he was tapping his feet on the accelerator pedal to the beat music.“Francis talked to dad, and dad’s now reconsidering the marriage! This is revolutionary. It’s like a protest! Thanks, bro! I recognize your distinguished contributions to this great, heroic cause!”“Blah…” Scarlett pretended to throw up at his pretentious tone.“Come on, you should be happy for me!”Scarlett just closed her eyes; she felt exhausted and sleepy. Chuck was too high energy for her right now.“By the way, where’re you going?” asked Chuck patiently.

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 kissed her neck and tousled her hair.

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. Was she selfish? Was she a bad mother, a bad wife?“Francis, do you resent me?” Scarlett asked as she Skyped with

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.

You’re making fun of me, aren’t you?”“No, I’m the same as you. I feel nervous,” he said in a low voice.“What?” Scarlett asked curiously.Francis was standing in front of the window of his study room with his hands in his pocket, looking out at the vast, blue sea outside.He took a deep breath and smiled, “I said, I’m much more nervous than you are.

Please go play by yourself.”But Brittany just ignored him and took Scarlett to jump on the balcony. She was excited about the big blue swimming pool in front of them and said, “Mommy, I want to swim. Mommy, please go swimming with me.”The setting sun shone on the swimming pool; it was very quiet.“My sweetheart, could you ask daddy to go swimming with you a while later?” Scarlett said as she touched her head.Though Brittany was unhappy about this, she was not a stubborn kid; after that, she turned around to go look for Francis. Carlos was a little worried about her, so he instantly followed her.
