The Chinese food that Raymond ordered was delivered half an hour later. It tasted much better than Scarlett had expected.
Scarlett had little appetite on the plane. After she got to the hotel, she went straight to sleep. Now she had just woken up and felt very hungry.
After the meal, Raymond asked her if she wanted to go downstairs for a walk.
Scarlett shook her head slightly, "No.
Aren't you going to RayPal Corporation for a meeting tomorrow?"
"It doesn't matter."
Scarlett looked at him with a smile and said, "But it's so cold outside."
Scarlett didn't like going out on cold days.
Seeing that Scarlett didn't want to go, Raymond stayed in the hotel room with her.
The room was equipped with a home theater system. Raymond chose an art movie to watch with Scarlett.
Scarlett slept so long in the afternoon, and with the jet lag, she wasn’t sleepy at night. She didn't fall asleep until nearly three o'clock in the morning.
Raymond accompanied Scarlett, so he didn't go to bed until nearly three o'clock either. When he got up after dawn, his dark circles were obvious.
Scarlett felt sorry for him. She wanted to apply a hot towel to his eyes to eliminate the dark circles, but Raymond stopped her and said, "Mrs. Shaw, you just rest. I am going to the meeting later. After it, we'll fly back to our home country."
Scarlett fell asleep very late and got up so early. Raymond regretted letting her come to Bhourne with him.
Raymond and Scarlett didn't stay long in Bhourne. They only stayed for three days before flying to their home country.
Back in the capital, Raymond happened to have a cooperation project to discuss. So they planned to stay in the capital for a few days.
After they got off the plane and went to the hotel, Scarlett slept for about three hours. It was almost seven o'clock in the evening when she woke up. She looked at
Raymond, who was pouring water for her," You are going to have dinner with some businessmen tonight, aren’t you?" "No rush." Raymond came to Scarlett and handed the water cup to her. Then he took out the sweater, scarf, and gloves from the suitcase and put them aside.
