Cloudfort City.
After 2 hours of flying, the jet finally landed at the private airport in the capital, Cloudfort City.
Logan, who had only seen Scarlett's forged appearance, was utterly stunned. Before him, he saw a beautiful girl with long, slightly reddish wavy hair walking beside Xander. They stepped side by side off the plane.
Who is she? Where's Miss Scarlett?
He then looked at the back, which had been closed off by the connecting door — now the door opened, but he saw no one there.
Miss Scarlett still in the toilet!?
Impossible.
He remembers when they took off, there were only two women on this plane; Miss Scarlett and a female flight attendant.
Then who is that long-haired woman?
Logan wanted to look closer at her face, but the woman was already walking ahead. Feeling curious, he turned his gaze to Ben.
"Brother Ben, where is Miss Scarlett? And, who is the woman beside the master?" He whispered to Ben, who was standing beside him.
The two of them waited for their turn to get off the plane after Xander and the long-haired woman.
Ben didn't reply to Logan. Instead, he urged him to get off the plane. "Hurry!! We have a lot of work to do." He said and rushed to the stairs. Logan took a deep breath as he followed Ben off the plane, even though he was still curious about the woman.
Logan looked closer at the long-haired woman's face—he was in the same car as Xander. He sits next to Jones, Xander's driver. Logan stole glances at the woman a few times. It made his brain feel burned because the more he saw her face, the more familiar it became despite her foreign look.
He wanted to ask them, but seeing them looking intensely at their gadgets, he abandoned his intention. But he couldn't help but let his imagination run wild—thinking of many possibilities.
Did Master Xander keep this beauty on the plane and throw Miss Scarlett out of the plane? And now he decided to marry this beauty?
Suddenly Logan's head started to feel numb; He shifted his gaze forward, staring at the bustling streets. He will ask his master later when they arrive at the registry office.
But his curiosity was immediately answered when he heard the conversation from behind.
He was shocked beyond words.
It turns out that the long-haired woman is Miss Scarlet!!
How could it be?
Once again, Logan glanced at the woman from the rearview mirror; The woman looked beautiful. She looked foreign but also familiar. He still doubted the woman was Miss Scarlet. But when he hears her voice, his body turns stiff.
So, the woman is, indeed, Miss. Scarlett!?
Fuck!! What's going on here?
After texting Cruz Reeves and informing him that she had arrived in Cloudfort City, Scarlett glanced at Xander. There was something she wanted to ask him. But seeing how serious he was right now, she hesitated.
After a few moments passed, she dared to ask, "Mr. Xander, can I ask you something?"
Xander slowly put down his iPad and looked at her, "Call me Xander!! Just call me like that. We'll be officially husband and wife in a few minutes. You should start calling my first name only. Otherwise, people would get suspicious."
Scarlett rolled her eyes, amused. This man is so inconsistent. A few days ago, he had asked like that, but he was still calling her name formally. And now he's asking her to do the same thing again?
Let's see if he will do it too.
"Same with you. Just call me by my name, Scarlett!"
"Sure, Scarlett Riley!" He said while looking at her beautiful eyes.
Scarlett "..."
It sounds strange, but it can create waves on the calm lake in her heart. She looked away, out the window, hiding her flushed face — she completely forgot what she wanted to ask Xander about.
As they passed the streets, Scarlett remembered her last visit to Cloudfort. Not much to remember. She didn't have much memory of this city, as she rarely came here.
In the past, she came to this city for a holiday when her mother was still around. And the last time she came here was last month before she went to Island B for a vacation, but it turned out to be her nightmare.
Cloudfort City is the largest city in the country and a center for the business, fashion, and entertainment industries. Geographically, it is located in the southern part of the country. The temperature is much warmer than in the cities in the north.
Many beautiful beaches and also beautiful mountains can be found in Cloudfort. The beautiful nature could attract local and foreign tourists to come to the city.
A year ago, she bought an old building on Palm Avenue before returning to this country. She renovated the building to become her house and office.
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom She deliberately bought a building far from the city center. She wanted to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and traffic jams, and Palm Avenue was the right choice for her. Because the area is close to the sea.
The building she bought was located in front of the quiet sea. She could take a walk to the sea whenever she wanted.
But who would have thought that her decision to marry Xander Riley would make her live in the middle of the city!?
"What do you want to ask?" Xander's charming voice made her remember what she wanted to ask.
She turned to look at him. "I wonder, where will we live?"
"At my house, of course!" Why did she ask?
"I know. Which area is it?"
"Why do you want to know?" He felt strange.
Gosh!! Scarlett wants to strangle this Xander. Can he answer without asking again?
Scarlett was starting to feel stressed talking to him. "I wonder if your house is far from my office..." She explained with annoyed-looking eyes.
"What area is your office?" Xander was surprised to learn that this girl had an office in the capital. Didn't she just come back from abroad? Does she already have a job?
"Okay, forget it!" Scarlett felt tired of talking to this stupid Xander.
