NovelEnglishHearing Raymond was calling her, Scarlett froze.
Holding the car door, she stood there and looked at Raymond who came over, "Whom is Mr. Shaw going to plead for this time?" After Raymond heard her words, his expression hardened. How come he had never found her so sarcastic? "You don't have to be so hostile to me. In fact, | don't hate you as much as you think I do. Looking at him, Scarlett suddenly laughed, "You mean that you don't hate me that much. On the contrary, you still have a crush on me?" After saying that, Scarlett narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms in front of her chest. Standing up straight, she looked into Raymond's dark eyes, "But sorry, Raymond, whether you hate me or not means nothing to me.
I've told you that after the divorce, we are strangers. So,She paused and gave a cold smile, "I just treat you as a stranger now." Raymond's face stiffened. His cold gaze fell on her.
Scarlett's repetition of "A stranger" annoyed him. He raised his hand at his side and pulled the buttons of his shirt, trying to suppress his anger, "Are you afraid that you will come back to me when you could stand u p with being apart from me?" Scarlett wasn’t angry but smiled, "I never understood why Tiffany was so confident for no reason. But now | get it. Being overconfident is probably the fine tradition of your Shaw family. You all are narcissistic and conceited." She didn't say any foul language, but each of her words was scolding him.

Raymond's black eyes slowly moved, and then his gaze fell on her red lips.
'How such harsh words come from such pretty lips?If you're so confident that you won't come back to me, then why do you delude yourself and treat me as a stranger?" "A slap-" Scarlett raised her hand and slapped Raymond. The smile on her face faded, and there was only blandness and coldness left in her eyes.
Looking at him, she asked him calmly, "Don’t be crazy." Raymond raised his hand and touched his face. She slapped Raymond so hard that his face still hurt a lot even now.
"If you haven't come back to your sense, | can give you another slap." Scarlett stared into his eyes. She was calm, and he told him the truth, "Do you know why I treat you as a stranger?" He pushed the tip of his tongue against the groove of his teeth. His voice was deep and cold, "Why?" "Because | know that men are cheap." After saying that, she bent down and went straight into the car.
"Clang", Scarlett pulled the car door shut, then put the car into first gear, stepped on the gas pedal, and drove away in front of him.
Raymond stood there. His face darkened and looked scary.
At this time, the phone in his pocket rang.
He could hardly hold back the anger in his heart. He took out his phone and smashed it on the ground fiercely.
The phone screen instantly shattered, and the ringing stopped.

He touched a cigarette out, lowered his head in the wind, and lit it.
He gradually calmed down after a while. He bent down to pick up the phone, threw it back into the car, and then also drove away.
Realizing that Raymond hasn't come to the private room yet, Alexander was confused, "Damn it.
Raymond blocked my number." Alexander kicked Stephen's sofa, "Stephen, give me your phone." Stephen took the phone on the table and threw it into Alexander's hand.
Alexander called Raymond with Stephen's phone, but i t still didn't get through, "Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is not in service." He hung up the phone and threw the phone back to Stephen, "You are blocked, too." Stephen frowned, "Impossible. How could he do this?" Alexander shrugged his shoulders, "Who knows.
