Chapter 629

Scarlett looked at Raymond not far away, took a sip of orange juice and looked at Alexis with a half-smile. “Or should I ask him for you?”

“Ah! If you ask, there will be no surprise!”

Scarlett smiled. “Then why did you ask me?”

She even doubted that Alexis deliberately saved no surprise for her.

Alexis smiled awkwardly, “It’s so stupid of me to ask this.”

Scarlett gave her a meaningful look and said half-jokingly, “This isn’t the first time for you to be silly.”

At this moment, Justin came along. Scarlett nodded at him and then walked away.

Raymond returned to her side after making the phone call. The two of them were the hosts tonight. In fact, Scarlett’s social circle and Raymond’s didn’t overlap at all, but the atmosphere was quite harmonious tonight.

Last year, Scarlett was encouraged by Alexis to sing on stage, but this year, Alexis dared not do so. She took Mark up to the stage and sang a song for Scarlett.

Although she didn’t sing very well, all the listeners were amused by her performance.

Wearing a smile, Scarlett looked at Alexis from under the stage.

The whole party lasted until eleven o’clock in the evening. When it was about to end, Alexis looked at Raymond several times. Before leaving, she said in Scarlett’s ear with a snort, “So he isn’t going to propose tonight, is he? Bastard!”

Hearing her scornful words, Scarlett couldn’t help laughing. She glanced at Raymond who was talking to Alexander. “I’m not in a hurry to get married.”

“I know, but he has to show his intention to propose to you.”

Scarlett shot a sharp glance at Alexis. “Are you trying to sow discord between us?”

Alexis, whose intention was exposed, quickly pulled Justin aside and said, “I’m so sleepy. Let’s leave now! Happy birthday to you, Lettie!”

Scarlett smiled grumpily. “Thanks. You two can go now.”

After she said this, Raymond came to her side. “Are you going back?”

“Yes,” she replied.

Most people at the party had already left.

Raymond stepped aside to the sofa and took all the birthday presents Scarlett had received tonight. Then he led her out of the banquet hall.

In July, the night in Juanton City was a little muggy. With the car windows open, the wind blew in, but they still felt hot.

Scarlett glanced at Raymond and snorted, “Aren’t you going to give me a present?”

“Of course I will give you one.”

The red light was on, and Raymond turned his head to look at her.

He held out his hand and put it on her head gently. Then he kissed her on the forehead and said, “I’ll give it to you after we get back home.”

The traffic lights flashed quickly at night. As soon as Raymond finished saying this, the red light in front of him changed to a yellow one, and then it changed to a green one within a few seconds.

Raymond started the car again, and Scarlett raised her hand to touch her forehead, which was just kissed by him. It still felt warm.

She bowed her head and smiled. In fact, she was a little curious about what Raymond was going to give her.

As for the proposal, Scarlett knew that he wouldn’t do it at this time. After all, her grandfather hadn’t agreed on their marriage. If Raymond proposed now, he would show no respect to Rowan.

Moreover, she had just been divorced for more than a year, and she didn’t want to re-enter another marriage so soon.

If possible, she didn’t want to get married again.

In that case, if she and Raymond no longer loved each other, they didn’t need to get a divorce certificate.

“What are you thinking?”

The red light was on again, and Raymond suddenly asked her.

Scarlett looked at him and said, “Nothing, I’m just a little sleepy.”

Then she yawned.

Raymond looked at her and said, “We will get home in ten minutes.”

“Okay.”

Scarlett nodded, and she felt a little guilty while being gazed at him. She couldn’t help looking outside the window again.

"Mr. Smith, Raymond and I are not nearsighted or face blind.""Then you guys pretended not to recognize me, right?"Scarlett swallowed the soup before asking, "You didn't want to be recognized by us, did you?"She had a good point. Alexander was lost for words."Well, aren't you curious why I came here to work as a waiter?"Scarlett gave him a look. "Maybe this is your hobby. It's improper for us to ask about that."Alexander heard the sarcasm in Scarlett's words. He was upset. "How could it be? I work here just because I made a friend angry..."Before he could finish, the intercom in Alexander's pocket rang. He pressed a button on it. Someone asked him where he was and told him that several tables of guests were waiting for their food.Alexander answered that he got it. He then looked at Scarlett and Raymond.
