"Ah..."
Cindy looked at her with great surprise. After a while, she murmured, "But... you are still reasonable."
Scarlett was amused by her reaction. She recalled Alexis’ words and realized that Cindy treated her like a fanatical fan treated her favorite star. Whatever she did, Cindy would support her unconditionally.
This was really interesting.
She handed the menu over to Cindy. "Please take a look at this and tell me what you want to eat or drink."
Cindy felt flattered and she took a few glances at Scarlett before reaching for the menu. "Do you really want me to order?"
Scarlett smiled. "Yes. Although I'm not that rich, I can pay for the bill."
At the thought that she might have offended Scarlett, Cindy quickly explained, "Miss Reed, I didn't mean that. I just don’t know what you like to eat..."
"Don't be nervous, I'm just kidding."
Cindy blinked. Then she looked down at the menu and ordered the signature dessert.
Seeing that she had finished ordering, Scarlett smiled.
"Miss James, don't you hate me?"
"Why should I hate you? You are pretty and have such a good personality. To be honest, I like you so much! If you had chosen to marry my brother, I would have protected you from being bullied by others!"
Cindy was so nervous that she blurted out her true thoughts.
After that, her ears turned red from embarrassment.
Scarlett was stunned for a few seconds. "You seem to have a good impression of me, don't you?"
Cindy even wanted her to marry her brother, which meant she must have left a good impression on this girl.
Pursing her lips, Cindy said without hesitation, "Miss Reed, we have met before."
