“Except the threat, which part of what you said is useful to him?” He said.
After a second thought, Scarlett said, “You are straying from the point. Anyway, you should not contradict me in front of him like that! That’s all I’m saying, okay? End of discussion.” She huffed.
“Alright, fine. It’s my fault. I’m sorry. It won’t happen again.” Francis relented easily because he knew that he wouldn’t win this argument with her.
Scarlett nodded her head happily and waved at him, “Well, I’d better leave you to work now and take our son outside for a little stroll. I can tell he’s feeling restless. He wants to go outside.”
Although it was nine o’clock, there were still many people
“Before the results of the trial were announced, he even said to the jury, ‘Do you know who I am? I was sent here by God himself to enlighten you, and now you are trying to punish me? You are so naive. With my contribution to Athens, you should not punish me. Instead, it would be best if you were celebrating my marvelous legacy. You should be showering me with untold gifts.”Upon hearing that, Scarlett laughed very loudly, and then he continued,“Because of his grandiose words, the jury was pissed off. His attitude just didn’t fly with them. So, the jury decided to take a vote, and the result this time was 360 vs. 140. As a result, he was sentenced to death. There was no amount of money or gold he could’ve given them to make them reverse that decision. And later, as everyone knows, his students bribed the prison guards to hel
“Hey, Carlos, come on. Wake up! You’re usually so happy to wake mommy up bright and early, aren’t you? Come, let’s take a short swim together. What do you say?”Carlos would usually wake up at 6 am– unprompted– and demand his first meal of the day from Scarlett. Today, however, he didn’t wake up until seven because he had gone to sleep quite late the night before. He was still not fully awake and stayed quiet in Scarlett’s arms, rubbing his eyes and resting his hands on her shoulders.“Where is daddy?” Carlos murmured.“Your daddy doesn’t like swimming, so let’s go to the pool quietly by ourselves, okay?” Scarlett said.The swimming pool was half-hidden amongst the tall trees and wa
Scarlett sat up and grabbed his collar. “Listen, I’m entitled to my feelings, okay? Everyone knows you were a ladies’ man before you met me. I want to put an end to that.”Francis touched her arm and said, “Baby, I know. But don’t hesitate. I don’t want you to worry at all.”Francis threw Scarlett onto the bed in the guest room. “You’re mine, alright? Only mine. And I’m yours.” With that, the two fell asleep arm in arm. It was as if they had never even argued.The following day, Francis got up later than usual. He was full of energy. He woke Scarlett up gently and then pinned her down under him. His desire knew no bounds.According to the experiences she had had thus far, Scarlett knew very well how
Francis pulled her into his arms. With his hand on her waist, he whispered into her ear.“You know Allen?”“No, not really. We met once before, I think.” Scarlett stuttered, struggling to get the words out.“Oh, really? Then how did you get in here?” Francis was obviously suspicious. He figured there had been some foul play. How else could Scarlett have gotten into the exclusive cocktail party anyway?Now that he caught her lying, Scarlett had no choice but to give Chuck away, so she told him everything about Chuck’s plan.“Model? Who is Chuck talking about?”“She is the pretty one… with big boobs. Ring a bell?&rdq
As soon as they got home, Scarlett started to make preparations for Skyler’s arrival. She arranged everything by herself, right from the necessities in the bedroom to the utensils she would need for tomorrow’s lunch. After that, she came to the study looking for Francis.“Francis!” She peeked in and yelled. She was wearing a loose white shirt, which revealed her long legs. She looked, as always, extremely sexy and charming.“What’s up?” Francis asked as he looked up.“Would you like to go shopping with me?” She asked in a meek voice, scared to disturb his concentration and inflamed his temper. Scarlett just stood there without moving. She stared at him with big puppy eyes, anxious to please.Francis beckoned her in, a
She still remembered that time. Scarlett had wanted to take a closer look, but Eve had pulled her away before she had even been able to snap a quick photo with her phone.Francis twirled the car keys around and threw them at Scarlett to catch. Scarlett began walking around the car slowly, admiring various tiny details that only a true expert would notice. It was an unusual hobby for a woman, but Scarlett wasn’t an ordinary girl.“Let’s hit the road, and I’ll give you a good ride!” Scarlett said happily.As Scarlett stepped on the gas pedal, the Maserati just rushed out like a rocket, and she whistled excitedly. It was like she was at a racetrack.“Francis, did you buy this gorgeous car for me?” She looked at Francis and asked cur
“You are my woman now, and everything you have represents me. And I don’t want others to think that I don’t have the ability to provide a good life for my woman, okay?”Scarlett held his arms and said, “But I’m always afraid that one day, God will bring disasters upon us to punish me for being so happy.”When Francis heard that, he felt sad for Scarlett, and he understood why she felt like that. He knew Scarlett was very grateful for the happiness she had now, but she was afraid of losing it all because she had never lived with such abundance before. She was afraid of going back to her old life when she had to scrounge and make do with what she had.“Baby, we’ll never be bankrupt. You have absolutely nothing to worry about.” Francis tried to comfort h
Carlos also looked up into the man who was related to him biologically, as if he was trying to remember him from a past life or something.Meanwhile, Skyler put the luggage cart away and took the baby from Scarlett, and said excitedly, “Well, I see, you are Carlos. Don’t you think we look alike, little boy?”Scarlett pushed the luggage cart and said as they walked toward the outside, “He used to look like his father, but recently I think he’s started to look more like you! Isn’t it strange? I don’t know how that happens. It’s kind of odd.”Skyler gave a kiss on the baby’s cheek. The chubby baby was so lovely; especially with his big, watery eyes, nobody could take their eyes off him.As they came out, the bodygu
