Chapter 40

Scarlett 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 freezing for a moment, Scarlett put it on her wrist. The strap was just right and the dial matched her wrist perfectly.

She liked it very much.

"Thanks."

She said with a smile. Then she cupped her chin with one hand and looked at Alexis, "I remember that this watch is worth more than a million dollars. Where did you get the money?"

Alexis took a fancy to a riverside villa last year, which was worth one point eight hundred million dollars. She wanted to save money to buy it as their wedding house secretly without Justin's knowledge. Therefore, although she looked shiny and bright, in fact, she saved her money into her bank card every month and lived a very frugal life.

A million dollars was nothing to her. But Justin suddenly proposed to her in June this year. Alexis wanted to buy the villa before the wedding.

The money to buy the watch could support Alexis' life for a few months.

"Well, we've been good friends for over twenty years. A million dollars is nothing to me."

Scarlett laughed, "Yes."

It was rare for the three of them to get together. Scarlett drank a lot of wine, but she was a good drinker, so she was slightly drunk.

Justin restrained himself and didn't drink, watching Alexis and Scarlett drink together.

Scarlett was very relaxed with them. But after ten o'clock, she had to attend another birthday party.

It was the bar where she was famous for dancing last time and it was very lively.

Before she left, Alexis suddenly pulled her arm, "Lettie, today is your birthday. Do you want to do something crazy?"

Scarlett raised her eyebrows, "What?"

Alexis looked at her excitedly, "Since you are divorced, do you dare to kiss the first man you meet when you get out of here?"

Justin pulled Alexis and said, "Don't joke."

Alexis was a little aggrieved, "I'm not joking! Think about it. The man who can afford a VIP room in Honorable must be very rich. I heard that those who can stay in rooms on this floor aren't ordinary people. Lettie, you'll get lucky!"

Scarlett normally would never mess around with Alexis, but she drank some wine today. She said with some excitement, "Come on."

"Wow. You're the queen!"

Alexis suddenly pulled open the door of the room and pushed Scarlett out. She stumbled and directly ran into a man.

That man was tall. She didn't stand still and only saw his sexy Adam's Apple.

Thinking of Alexis' words just now, Scarlett held the man's shoulder, looked up to wink at him, and said, "Sir, can I kiss you?"

However, in the next second, the expression on her face froze.

That man was her ex-husband. How could she kiss him?

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.

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.

    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 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
