When Scarlett got in the car, she held the grumpy baby and said helplessly, “How dare you to be so grumpy at such a young age?”“Mrs. Sandler, would you like me to drive you home now?” The driver asked.“Let’s go to the office and ask his father to coax him!” She said as she pinched the chubby face of the baby.As the baby was nine months old now, Scarlett’s hands had been sore from holding him, so she wanted to rest him on her thighs, but he refused and struggled to stand up on her knees.“Stop it!” She warned him seriously.The baby glanced at her and began to jump up and down on her thighs. When they arrived at the office, Scarlett was told that Francis was in a m

Francis put down his cup of tea and tried to explain, “Oh, don’t think anything of it, mother. She is not angry with you. She was feeling under the weather this morning, and that’s why she’s not here with me right now. You’re overthinking it. Please, mother, just relax. You will see your grandson in due course.”“So, Scarlett couldn’t come, and Carlos wouldn’t either?” Francis’s father was doubtful.“He wasn’t feeling the best either.”“Have you taken him to see the doctor?” His father asked, concerned. Francis’s father cared for Carlos deeply– after all, he was Francis’s first child. In addition, he didn’t think that Scarlett and Francis’s match was scandalous like the rest of the family did

“I did a few searches here and there. I know the two of you loved each other dearly. If not for your mother, wouldn’t you have gotten married to her? Don’t lie to me, Francis.”Scarlett knew this information because of the warning she had received from Leah. After that, Scarlett had begun to pay close attention to stories in the media about Francis’s past lovers. As she dug deeper, Scarlett was surprised to find that Francis and Mary had been in a serious relationship for a while.After all, Mary Patel was a well-known film star at home and abroad. While Scarlett had been struggling to make a living and support herself as well as her brother, Mary had been winning film awards all over the world. If not for Chuck, Scarlett would never have had the chance to meet Francis. They belonged to completely different worlds.

“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

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
