Temptation From Her Ex-husband novel Chapter 473

"The anniversary of Juanton University?

Scarlett had just fastened her seat belt when she heard Raymond's words. She involuntarily lifted her eyebrows. "Uh-huh. Is there a problem?"

Raymond shook his head. "I seem to have been invited as well."

Scarlett swiveled her head aside to look sidelong at him. "What do you mean by ' seem to ?"

"I’ve received too many invitations."

Scarlett snorted, "So you are really somebody, Mr. Shaw."

Raymond reached out his hand and held hers. "When will you send an invitation to me who is somebody, Ms. Reed?"

Scarlett was amused by his mock seriousness. "I'm on my way to dine with you, aren't I?"

Raymond looked at her. The expression in his dark eyes flickered. "I'm expecting you to invite me to visit the Register Office with you. Of course, I can invite you if you want."

"Are you suggesting I don't have enough money for that? "

The service charge was only twelve bucks. Anybody could afford it.

Scarlett was only playing along. It was after saying those words that she realized she had responded too quick and fallen prey to Raymond's trick.

"So, are we going to the Register Office tomorrow?"

Scarlett looked at Raymond with a half smile. "Mr. Shaw, you still got a lot of issues on your schedule, right?"

"You can make my schedule full or empty with a single word, can't you, Ms. Reed?"

Scarlett didn't know when, but Raymond seemed to have learned a few moves from her. Having been outspoken by him, Scarlett gave him a dirty look. "Stop dreaming!"

With that she chuckled, "Can we go to the restaurant now? I'm hungry."

Raymond knew that she was changing the subject, but he also knew that it was

unwise to rush into it. He nodded. "Hold on tight."

Raymond always drove at a steady moderate speed, which was why there had been several occasions when Scarlett nearly fell asleep in his car.

Both of them were regulars at Clear Waters. Although Scarlett had not held any staff members of this restaurant responsible for the matter of Yvonne the other day, Raymond had expressed his displeasure with it to Alexander.
