When Larry got out of the car, he said suddenly, "I don't mean to force you to stay with someone else. I think that you should know more men and learn about your heart. Then you can make a better choice this time.”
Scarlett was moved and nodded, "I see, Larry.”
Larry said, "Although I have no objection to you being with Raymond, grandfather won't agree easily. All after, Raymond has done these things to you."
Scarlett smiled, "If we hold on to the end, he needs to persuade grandfather by himself."
'I won't help him.'
Larry looked at her and didn't say anything else.
Alexis recommended the restaurant to Scarlett before. Luckily, Larry liked it.
Larry came here for a business trip, but he also wanted to see Scarlett.
He was too busy. When he was eating, he received phone calls nonstop.
Larry hung up and massaged his forehead. He said, "Scarlett, I'm sorry. I'm busy recently."
Scarlett didn't care and smiled, "Never mind. Are you full this time?"
He knew that she was teasing him. He smiled, "I'm full. I will ask my secretary to pick me up. You can come home first and take a rest. It's late at night."
Scarlett said, "Where do you live? I would like to drive you home."
He refused, "No need. You're a girl."
Scarlett fell into a trance. It had been a long time since someone said that she was a girl. After her parents passed away, she became mature overnight. She could only protect herself after she lost her parents.
But she had a cousin, a grandfather, an uncle and an aunt now. She wasn't alone anymore. She was a little girl in their eyes.
She blinked and held her tears back. She said, "I won't leave until Secretary Lewis come here to pick you up."
Larry glanced at her but didn't ask her to leave.
