Alexander would celebrate his birthday at the end of this month, and naturally, Scarlett and Raymond had prepared a great gift for him.
Although the celebration was extravagant, only people from their circle were invited, and the guests were mostly of their age.
Scarlett knew most of the guests, for during the three years or so after she had married Raymond, Jean had purposefully taken her out to attend various entertainments, and that was when Scarlett got to know the faces.
It could be said that she had met almost every wealthy person in Juanton City.
Back then, those wealthy figures were not all very friendly towards Scarlett, for Raymond and Jean treated her poorly.
However, now things were different since she had become Mrs. Shaw and the president of Mornet Corporation. Besides, she was also recognized as a granddaughter of the Tank family. No one dared to have a bad attitude towards her.
But anyway, the guests tonight were all Alexander's friends.
Friends of his circle all knew that Alexander and Raymond were very close. For this reason, they would show Scarlett due respect.
Cindy had been fairly busy recently, plus the fact that Scarlett had cut herself off from most social activities after Raymond had an incident, she and Cindy had not seen each other for roughly a year.
Tonight, Cindy specially took a day off and attended the party with Stephen.
The moment Cindy entered the hall, she spotted Scarlett, who was sitting next to Raymond. Somehow, she just got the feeling that Scarlett seemed more beautiful than the last time she saw her!
With excitement, Cindy freed herself from Stephen and rushed to Scarlett as she called out to her.
Scarlett was wearing a knitted dress in stone-blue, adding on a short dark-green leather coat. She tied her long hair back with a hair band and had applied light makeup. The brick-red lipstick was the finishing touch of her gentle and graceful outfit tonight.
Haven't seen Scarlett for a long time, Cindy felt that her heart almost missed a beat when looking at Scarlett's perfect face. Had Raymond not given her a not so friendly look when she tried to approach Scarlett, she would not hesitate to hug this beautiful sister.
