"When you were playing cards at my birthday party, Raymond asked someone to give you warm water."
Scarlett remembered it. She was playing cards with Alexander that day. Meanwhile, a maid came and gave her water. When she touched the glass and found it was warm, she thought that the maid was quite thoughtful.
She had never associated that with Raymond.
Cindy was a little nervous. She knew that Scarlett didn't want her to mention Raymond. They were almost blocked by Scarlett because of that incident.
"Don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to say this."
Scarlett glanced at Cindy. "You didn't do anything wrong. Don't be so nervous."
Cindy was embarrassed. She once annoyed Scarlett.
Yet Scarlett seemed to be cool with it.
Cindy sighed with relief. "I'm here to tell you something."
"Yes?"
Scarlett raised her eyebrows and looked at Cindy, waiting for her to continue.
"I'll take graduation photos next Tuesday. If you're free, can you come and take a photo with me?"
Cindy said awkwardly, "I know you're also a graduate o f Juanton University."
Scarlett smiled. "Will you take graduation photos in the morning or the afternoon?"
Cindy's face lit up. She stared at Scarlett nervously and expectantly. "In the afternoon."
Scarlett thought for a moment. "I'll probably be free that day."
"Then can you come over?"
Scarlett was famous at Juanton University. She was good-looking and intelligent. Naturally, Cindy worshiped her.
"Yes."
Scarlett smilingly opened the menu. "See what you want to eat."
"Anything will do. This restaurant is fantastic!"
Cindy is very lively in front of Scarlett. And they were from the same university. Thus, Cindy said a lot of interesting things about Juanton University in recent years. Scarlett occasionally commented. They finished lunch in a cordial and comfortable atmosphere.
Cindy had to go back to school in the afternoon to write her thesis. Otherwise, she would ask Scarlett to
Scarlett briefly summed up the news two days ago and indirectly taunted Emelia.
Emelia forced a smile and took out a box from her bag. "I heard that you're familiar with Mr. Shaw. He left it behind. Please help me return it to him."
Scarlett looked at the box and raised an eyebrow." Well, you can't believe rumors. I'm not very familiar with Raymond."
Scarlett answered calmly. Emelia was so annoyed that she couldn't breathe evenly.
She held out the box. Scarlett dried her hands and glanced at Emelia. "You'd better give it to him yourself."
After saying that, Scarlett went past Emelia and walked outside.
Emelia gritted her teeth, chasing after her. "Wait, Ms. Reed. I have to go abroad for a show tomorrow. I don't have time, so I have to trouble you."
Scarlett looked at her with a faint smile. Emelia was somehow scared. Just when Emelia thought Scarlett wouldn't take it, Scarlett said, "In that case, I'll do you a favor."
She took the box and put it into her bag. "You don't need to thank me."
Emelia had intended to retort but was stunned.
Now that Scarlett said so, what else could Emelia say?
