Chapter 37Scarlett had thought it was a lucky day. But when she arrived at the harbor, she ran into two people that she didn't want to see.She didn't want to see Julie and Tiffany on such a good day.Scarlett wore a long champagne-colored dress today. The hem of her dress fluttered in the wind. Her long chestnut curly hair also fluttered, revealing her beautiful face.Even if Tiffany despised Scarlett, she had to admit that Scarlett was beautiful.Seeing Scarlett walking towards her, Tiffany thought she was coming to beg for mercy. After all, not long ago, Tiffany asked someone to release photos of Scarlett dating another man before she and Raymond divorced.Tiffany subconsciously raised her head and proudly waited for Scarlett to beg her.But Scarlett walked past her from a distance of more than a meter. After freezing for a moment, Tiffany said angrily, "Hey!"She ran after Scarlett, but Scarlett didn't turn around.She was so angry that she stomped, "Scarlett! Are you dea
Chapter 38Since she had asked, Cindy could only say yes."Cindy, whose yacht is next to yours?"There were many rich and powerful families in Juanton City. They basically knew each other for they were in the same circle. Tiffany looked at it for a long time and didn’t see any acquaintances on that yacht, so she had to ask Cindy.Cindy shook her head and said, "I don't know."After Cindy responded Tiffany, she looked at the man behind her sent by Stephen and asked, "Hey, do you know whose yacht that is?""I don't know. I heard that it just arrived the port last night. I haven't heard of its owner."Cindy raised her chin and looked at Tiffany, "Did you see any of your acquaintances?""No!"Tiffany gritted her teeth and followed Julie into their yacht.Cindy curled her lips and thought that if Tiffany had met some of her acquaintances, she wouldn't have been followed by Tiffany.Entering the yacht, Julie was lost in thought when she looked at the yacht behind her through the w
Chapter 39Tiffany's actions couldn't make Scarlett upset. Scarlett had already let Katherine ask the lawyer to deal with all these things. If Tiffany made more trouble, she would be more miserable in the future.Besides Tiffany, there seemed to be another person who wanted to smear Scarlett. This person said that Scarlett has been creating hot topics since she divorced Raymond and she became a hit more frequently than those online celebrities, so this one predicted that Scarlett wanted to debut by doing so.When Scarlett saw these comments in the afternoon, she was quite calm.‘Are these people so stupid?’She didn't care about these comments at all. After taking a nap, she spent half an hour on skincare, and then spent half an hour putting on perfect makeup.Looking at the beautiful face in the mirror, Scarlett felt very satisfied. Then, she walked into the cloakroom and chose a fuchsia dress with a deep V-neck and tail.This fuchsia dress was shiny, and it was not suitable fo
Chapter 40Scarlett bowed her head and blew out the candles on the cake. As she went in, she said, "Today is my birthday. I want to change my style."She threw her purse onto the sofa, picked up the wine decanter and goblet, and poured herself a glass of red wine slowly.Seeing her movements, Alexis said helplessly, "I'm a little glad I'm a woman, but a little sorry about that.""Hmm?"Justin raised his eyebrows. Alexis shrunk and got out of his arms to sit beside Scarlett, "Happy birthday, Lettie! May you earn more this year than you did last year!"Scarlett took the gift in her hand and said, "Thank you. I like your wish very much."She put down the goblet and started to open the birthday gift.She unwrapped the wrapping paper, revealing the gradient white gift box. She picked up the lid of the box. There was a simple retro yet stylish women's watch. It was a limited edition model of the Season this year, named "Broken New", with a small cloud engraved under the dial.After
Chapter 41It was Raymond. Scarlett was surprised. Even the drunk Alexis was scared to hide in Justin's arms.But Alexis was also excited, nestling against Justin's chest while winking at Scarlett. "Come on!"Scarlett's mind was a blank. She and Raymond had been married for three years, but the most intimate thing they did was probably that he took her hand on the wedding day.She didn't expect that three months after the divorce, she even bumped into Raymond with her hands on his shoulders. People who did not know what had happened between them might think they were a sweet couple. Alexis winked so vigorously that her eyes were almost contorted. Scarlett glanced at her and quickly made a decision.Raymond was six feet two. Scarlett was five feet six, much shorter than him. Yet she wore high heels today, so she stood on tiptoe and easily kissed his cool lips.Immediately after that, Scarlett let go of him. "Just a little game. Don't get mad."She curved her lips. Her voice was
Chapter 42"Get lost."Raymond sat down and didn't even give Alexander a look.After that, Raymond sank into the sofa, lowering his eyes, not talking to anyone.When Scarlett kissed him just now, he had an indefinable feeling. He was excited and delighted, but before he could figure it out, she let go of him.He smoked a cigarette in the smoking room outside. Meanwhile, he was full of Scarlett who raised her charming eyes and asked him if she could kiss him.Alexander and Stephen had been friends with Raymond for so many years, but this was the first time they had seen him like this.The two men winked at each other. They wanted to ask Raymond but finally didn't dare.The room was silent. After a while, Raymond suddenly raised his head and glanced at Alexander. "It's not like you to be so quiet. What's up? Is anything wrong with your tongue?"Alexander was depressed. "Didn't you tell me to get lost?""Oh, really?"Raymond leaned forward and poured himself a glass of water. A
Chapter 43Scarlett didn't expect that she would be admired by Alexander and the others. She had just arrived at the entrance of Night Party with Alexis. The neon lights in front of the entrance were flashing. Scarlett was dazzled.Mark and Juan were already inside. They booked a large room on the second floor. The cake was waist high. As soon as Scarlett came in, Rylie and the others brought the cake out.The people who came today were all working for Crain Vision Entertainment. Even Michael, who had just been signed, was here.Scarlett was not familiar with them. After the divorce, at the request of Alexis, these people and Scarlett once became a trending topic. Scarlett added them on WhatsApp but seldom chatted with them.When Rylie said that Mark and the others wanted to celebrate her birthday, Scarlett was a little surprised. She had wanted to refuse, but Alexis persuaded her.There were only eleven people in the room, including Scarlett, Alexis, and Justin. Although there w
Chapter 44She took out her phone to order a taxi. Mark came over. "I'll take you back, Scarlett."Scarlett raised an eyebrow. "No. Our houses are in different directions."Mark looked at her and slightly inclined his head toward the pile of gifts on the sofa. "It's not easy to take a taxi at midnight. Besides, you have so many gifts. It difficult for you to take them back alone, right?"Only then did Scarlett remember that she still had a heap of gifts.She stared at Mark for a moment. "Then it seems I can only trouble you.""My pleasure."Mark curved his lips, leaned down, and picked up the bag of gifts on the sofa. He then walked to the door and pulled open it. "Let's go."Scarlett smiled at him, walking out of the room.Mark drove the same Maserati that he drove before, and it was not the first time that Scarlett sat in it.She drank a lot today. Now, she felt drowsy.Mark didn't disturb her, the car was very quiet. If there wasn't a car accident, Scarlett would fall asl
Chapter 100Scarlett had to say that Justin really loved Alexis. He knew well what Alexis liked and disliked.Scarlett thought Justin was actually trying to show her how much he loved Alexis instead of asking for her advice today…Scarlett was taken by Justin to see three houses. To be honest, Alexis must like any of them. They just differed in size and location."Which house do you think is the best?"Hearing his words, Scarlett lifted her leg and took two steps forward to the balcony. "I think Riverland Garden is the best."Justin gave a rare smile. "Me too."Scarlett raised her eyebrows. "So you are going to buy it?"Justin nodded his head, so they went back to the sales office of Riverland Garden.Justin paid over 36 million dollars for the house outright in cash and wrote only Alexis' name on the deed of the house.The estate agent thought Scarlett was Alexis and kept praising Justin for loving her so much.Scarlett smiled. "I'm just his friend. I am not Alexis. She is
Chapter 99As the New Year was drawing near, everyone was very busy. And Scarlett was not as leisurely as before.Documents were sent in batches to the villa for her to review. She usually showed up at Mornet Corporation once or twice a month. However, during this period, she had to go to the corporation two or three times a week. The number of the meetings that Scarlett attended this month was more than that of all the meetings that she had attended in the past eleven months.As soon as the meeting ended, Scarlett greeted Katherine and left.She had clearly expressed her opinion at the meeting, so it was unnecessary for her to stay at the corporation.The moment she left Mornet Corporation, Scarlett answered a call from Justin.Future Technologies had only been on the market for more than four months. At the end of this year, Justin was busier than her.Therefore, upon answering Justin's call, Scarlett thought that something bad had happened to Alexis. "What happened to Alexis?
Chapter 98He couldn't guess what Raymond's ex-wife was thinking about.Hearing Alexander's words, Scarlett suddenly laughed, "Mr. Smith, do you have some misunderstanding about me?""What do you mean?"Alexander froze.In the next second, he heard a soft female voice come, "Do you think I lack money?""You're not short of money."Saying that, Alexander paused.He suddenly remembered that Scarlett didn't take any property with her when she divorced Raymond, which was what Raymond told them."What?"The green light was on. Scarlett restarted the car. She put the phone on speakerphone and waited for Alexander to answer her question."Nothing. I want to share the pressure for you."Scarlett laughed lightly, "Tens of millions of dollars is nothing stressful to me. Only people who covet my project every day make me stressed."Alexander understood that Scarlett minced her words to warn him that he shouldn't do that.He sneered, "Okay. I'm not short of that money. Since you have
Chapter 97Scarlett was in a good mood today, but she didn't expect to meet Raymond when she was about to leave. What’s more, it was unexpected that he would say such narcissistic words.It had been more than seven months since she divorced Raymond. After the divorce, her life was very comfortable. When she sometimes thought of Raymond, she was more annoyed at the mistakes she had made 3 years ago.She never thought that she would remarry him."Hilla, help me turn on the tub tap."She was in a bad mood, so she had to take a scented bath to relax herself.Scarlett didn't sleep well that night, probably because she met Raymond at the door of the clubhouse.She dreamed of many things which happened after getting married.As soon as the alarm went off, she opened her eyes.She didn’t sleep well, so Scarlett was in a bad mood.It was still dark outside, and the dawn broke very late in the winter of Juanton City.Scarlett put a coat on, and then went to wash up.While she was mak
Chapter 96Hearing Raymond was calling her, Scarlett froze. Holding the car door, she stood there and looked at Raymond who came over, "Whom is Mr. Shaw going to plead for this time?"After Raymond heard her words, his expression hardened. How come he had never found her so sarcastic?"You don't have to be so hostile to me. In fact, I don't hate you as much as you think I do."Looking at him, Scarlett suddenly laughed, "You mean that you don't hate me that much. On the contrary, you still have a crush on me?"After saying that, Scarlett narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms in front of her chest. Standing up straight, she looked into Raymond's dark eyes, "But sorry, Raymond, whether you hate me or not means nothing to me. I’ve told you that after the divorce, we are strangers. So..."She paused and gave a cold smile, "I just treat you as a stranger now."Raymond's face stiffened. His cold gaze fell on her.Scarlett's repetition of "A stranger" annoyed him. He raised his hand a
Chapter 95"My goddess is Taylor Swift."As soon as Scarlett pushed away Alexis, who was holding her, Antony came over and said this to her.Raising her eyebrows, she looked at him and said, "Alexis' goddess is Taylor Swift, too."Antony glanced at Justin aside, and then looked at Scarlett again, "Justin looks sullen."Scarlett glanced sideways at Justin, who was next to Alexis, and really felt that he looked sullen.She said with a smile, "I didn't mean anything."As she spoke, Scarlett looked down at the time and said, "Happy birthday. I've got to go."Alexis was a night owl. She wouldn't end this party until the wee hours.Although Alexis wanted Scarlett to stay longer, she knew Scarlett didn't like to stay up late.Hugging her, Alexis said a few words, and then reluctantly let go of her, "Well, text me when you get home."She talked like a mother talked to her daughter.Scarlett glanced at her and said, "Got it."As she spoke, she waved her hand.Antony, who was chatti
Chapter 94Justin turned on the lights again, and Alexis divided the cake for everyone at the party.Scarlett nibbled at the cake while some songs were playing on the big screen.Getting a microphone and going up to the small stage in front, someone sang a song to Alexis. The atmosphere was quite convivial.Scarlett was halfway through her cake when Alexis suddenly came over and said, "Lettie, can you sing me a song?"Scarlett set the remaining half of the cake aside on the bar, "What song do you want to hear?""As long as you sing it for me, any song will be okay."Scarlett raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "Okay, it's your birthday today. It's up to you."Alexis whistled like a hooligan. Getting another microphone and following Scarlett to the stage, she said, "Come on, everybody. My versatile best friend Scarlett is going to sing me a song. Let's all put down our cakes and enjoy her beautiful song."Scarlett felt she blushed when Alexis said this.She raised her e
Chapter 93Being aware of saying something wrong, Alexis took to her heels, leaving Scarlett to face Antony alone.Antony didn't care and said, "Our family has been abroad all the time, and we have hired someone to take care of the villa regularly. Maybe that person thought we wouldn't come back, so she was careless."Scarlett nodded understandingly. "No wonder you had no Internet connection that day."As he spoke, Antony suddenly smiled, "You thought I was a bad man that day?"Scarlett looked at him, sipped her juice and shook her head, "No."She just didn't like strangers coming into her space. Even though Antony was her neighbor, she didn't like it.Antony didn't ask her any more questions. Scarlett didn't really like to talk to others. Her personality was the opposite of Alexis. She didn't like socializing and making friends very much."I'll go sit over there."As she spoke, Scarlett walked over to the sofa with her juice and sat down.Alexis had a lot of good friends. Th
Chapter 92A male voice suddenly came over. Scarlett unhurriedly put the head on the snowman's body before looking at the gate.A man dressed in gray stood in the snow. His features were strongly defined. His nose was high, and his dark brown eyes crinkled in a smile. He was holding a black umbrella, standing in the doorway staring at her.Scarlett raised an eyebrow and patted the snow on her gloves before walking over slowly. "Are you calling me?""Sorry, Miss, I'm your neighbor, Antony Vang. The Wi-Fi in my villa is down, but I have some urgent matters. Can I come in and use yours?"The man looked at her, his voice mellow and pronunciation excellent.Scarlett curved her lips slightly. "There is a cafe in the mall 3 miles away. You can drive there."Well, the man was handsome, but she still politely refused.Antony was stunned for a moment and then smiled. "Sorry, it's presumptuous of me."Scarlett didn't say anything, just smilingly watching him turn to leave.This matter w
