Although Raymond was not a descendant of the Shaw family, Jean knew such a big secret. Therefore, Jean could still threaten Raymond. However, if the secret was exposed, the consequences would not be as good as she thought.
Jean reckoned that Raymond had already learned the truth from Scarlett's mouth. And Jean believed that Raymond would soon have someone contact her. Jean would then have the leverage to negotiate for Thomas.
Scarlett had been Jean's daughter-in-law for three years anyway. She reacted immediately to what Raymond had told her. "If that's the case, she's probably still waiting for you to throw yourself at her." Raymond gave Scarlett a look. "Then let her wait." Scarlett smiled. "Fine. Then let her wait." She'd like to see how many days Thomas could wait.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThomas really couldn't wait much longer. The victim was unwilling to cto an understanding with Thomas and insisted on pressing charges. And Thomas had committed a criminal offense and had not reached an understanding with the victim. Therefore, Thomas" attorney made it clear to him that he would not be able to get his sentence reduced, so his attorney could only try to fight it.
Although Thomas was released on bail, the case was due to go to trial in two months.
Jean was waiting for Raymond to cto her. However, Raymond didn’t make a move.
Another week had passed, and it was Scarlett's birthday. Alexis threw a little party for Scarlett like last year.
Only this tScarlett's birthday party was different than last year or even earlier because Raymond and Alexander and the others came.
Cindy had prepared a gift for Scarlett early on. The gift was a little enamel doll that Cindy had made herself.
Although the little doll was not very delicate but especially cute, it represented Cindy's love for Scarlett.
"Scarlett, happy birthday. May you be eighteen years old every year!" "Thank you." Scarlett took the gift. Then, Alexander and others in the distance ctowards Scarlett. "Happy birthday, Scarlett." "Thanks." Looking at the gift in Alexander's hand, Scarlett couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Mr. Smith, you're not just givingmoney, are you?" Alexander coughed. "Nope." Scarlett looked at Alexander with a halfsmile. Stephen and Jake, who were standing next to Alexander, also handed Scarlett gifts. Scarlett then took their gifts one by one and thanked them.

Scarlett raised her finger and pointed behind Alexander. "He's answering the phone." Alexander tilted his head. Then he followed Scarlett's gaze and looked over. As expected, he saw Raymond answering the phone. He couldn't help but let out a tsk. "How can he answer the phone at this time?" Scarlett laughed as she scanned Stephen and the others. "You have arrived and givenmy gifts, and | have received them. If you're going to go get busy, Mr.
Smith, Mr. James, and Mr. Thomas, feel free to do so." Stephen nodded a little. "Don't mind us." Scarlett wasn't going to be polite with them either. She nodded at them and then walked toward Alexis.
Seeing Scarlett walk away, Alexander walked over to Stephen. "Is Ray going to propose to her tonight?" Stephen glanced at Raymond, who was not far away. "Who knows?" Jake glanced askance at Alexander. "Why don't you go ask him?" Alexander got smart this time. "I'm not going. You think I'm that stupid!" He took a sip of his juice. As soon as he put the glass down, he saw Stephen and Jake looking at him with a smirk. And Stephen and Jake looked at him as if they were saying he was stupid.
He was speechless.
He thought, 'Dammit! If | hadn't been unable to beat you guys, | would have flipped out with you two by now! Alexander and the others were not the only ones who were curious about this question. Seeing that Raymond wasn't here, Alexis nudged Scarlett's shoulder gently." Raymond is going to propose to you tonight, isn't he?"
