After a few days of packing, moving day had finally arrived.

There wasn’t much to pack since Scarlett Adler wasn’t moving, so the three kids and William Adler only gathered some

clothes and personal items.

Downstairs.

As everything was loaded into the car, First turned to Scarlett. “Scarlett, are you sure you don’t want to move with us?”

Seeing their worried faces, Scarlett smiled. “This place is closer to work. If I move, I’ll have to wake up an hour earlier every

day. Do you think Scarlett can manage that?”

“But I’m worried about you being here alone…” First said.

Second nodded in agreement. “Yeah, Scarlett, why don’t you just move with us?”

“Yeah, Scarlett, what if I miss you?” Fourth added, pouting.

Seeing the reluctance on their faces, Scarlett felt a pang in her heart. After all, this was the first time since they were born

that the three of them were truly leaving her side. How could she not feel a little heartache?

But settling them in was something she had to do.

Scarlett pulled herself together and smiled at them. “You guys are helping me pack, right? As long as I have time, I’ll come

over and stay for a bit!”

“But we never really left you!” Fourth said.

“That’s why you need to learn to be independent and grow up!” Scarlett replied.

Fourth looked at her and said, “Scarlett, you’ve got it wrong. It’s not about us being independent. We’re worried about you.

What will you do without us taking care of you?”

Scarlett paused, “…”

It seemed like they had a point.

“Even though that’s true, I can still take care of myself, so don’t worry.”

“Scarlett…”

“Alright, everything’s loaded in the car. The movers are waiting!” Scarlett said.

Hearing this, the three finally quieted down.

“Come on, it’s just moving, not like we’re never seeing each other again!” William chimed in from the side.

He then looked at Scarlett, and although he was also worried, he understood that Scarlett…

It wasn’t that she couldn’t take care of herself. Hadn’t she managed just fine on her own during those years abroad?

Now, all he could do was share her burdens and take good care of the three little ones.

“Kiddo!” William called out.

Scarlett turned to him. “Grandpa.”

“Today marks a new beginning. Let’s have dinner at the estate tonight and celebrate together. Stay over so the little ones

can feel settled,” William suggested.

Hearing this, the three little ones eagerly nodded, looking at Scarlett with hopeful eyes.

It seemed that unless she agreed to stay for a night or two, they wouldn’t be satisfied.

With that in mind, Scarlett nodded. “Alright!” she agreed readily. “I’ll head over right after work!”

Seeing Scarlett agree, the three little ones finally relaxed. “Scarlett, we’ll wait for you tonight!”

“Okay, see you tonight!”

After a round of reluctant goodbyes, they got into the car and headed to the estate.

Once they left, Scarlett was about to hail a cab to work when she turned around and saw Tara standing behind her.

Seeing her, Scarlett spoke up, “Long time no see!”

“Heading to work?” Tara asked.

Scarlett nodded.

“Perfect timing. I’m headed that way. I’ll give you a ride!” Tara offered.

Scarlett didn’t hesitate and nodded in agreement.

On the road.

Tara drove, “I heard from First that Tiana turned herself in?”

Scarlett nodded again.

“Finally, justice served!” Tara remarked.

Scarlett listened, unimpressed, and glanced at her, “First moved to the estate. Are you planning to stay here?”

Tara was taken aback by her directness, unsure how to respond.

“You could move to the estate too,” Scarlett suggested.

Tara was surprised, looking at her, “Me?”

“Yeah!” Scarlett nodded.

“Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

“What’s inappropriate about it? It’d be easier for you all to communicate. You’re staying here because of the three of them

anyway,” Scarlett pointed out.

Tara paused, looking at Scarlett. There was something in Scarlett’s gaze that made Tara feel like there was more to her

words, as if she knew something.

After thinking for a while, Tara spoke, “I don’t understand what you mean…”

“Is that so?” Scarlett raised an eyebrow. “Then just pretend I didn’t say anything!”

Tara was speechless.

She was usually fearless, but for some reason, every time she met Scarlett, her gaze made Tara feel exposed.

Tara thought, she’s just a somewhat pretty woman, but she has this invisible pressure about her. It’s really strange.

Glancing at Scarlett, Tara pondered for a moment before speaking, “Have you known Nate for a long time?”

Scarlett nodded, “Yeah, over ten years.”

“Does he like you?” Tara asked directly. She had been wondering about this for a long time.

Scarlett was taken aback, raising an eyebrow at her, “Did he tell you that?”

“I guessed!”

Scarlett squinted her eyes.

“He said he already likes someone,” Tara said. “I thought about it for a long time, and if it’s you, then I accept it. I’ll back

off.”

“Why would you accept it if it’s me?” Scarlett asked.

“I don’t know, maybe because you impress me. Whether it’s your looks or your personality, I really admire you,” Tara

replied.

Scarlett frowned slightly, but then she smiled and said, “It seems like when it comes to feelings, our IQ drops!”

“What do you mean?”

Scarlett lazily raised an eyebrow. “I mean, he and I are just friends!”

Tara raised her eyebrows skeptically. “But what if he’s secretly in love with you?”

Scarlett couldn’t help but chuckle, turning to look at her. “Tara, while I don’t know exactly what happened between you

two, I can say for sure that Nate doesn’t have that kind of romantic interest in me. That, I can guarantee.”

Scarlett’s words were indeed convincing, and somehow, Tara found herself believing them.

“Could it be that there’s another woman in his life?”

Scarlett looked at him and said, “I can tell you about that.”

Tara glanced at her.

“For over a decade, since the day I met him, no woman has ever been able to get close to him. Of course, that’s assuming

he doesn’t consider me a woman,” Scarlett said.

Hearing this, Tara was momentarily stunned.

“I can vouch for that with my own character!” Scarlett assured her.

“Then why did he say he already has someone he likes?” Tara asked.

“What do you think?” Scarlett replied with a smile.

Tara pondered for a while, as if she suddenly understood something.

Just then, they reached the company entrance. Scarlett spoke up, “Just stop here.”

Tara snapped back to reality, looked ahead, and pulled over.

As they got out of the car, Scarlett turned to her, “By the way, are you free tonight?”

Tara looked at her, puzzled, “Is there something going on?”

“Dinner at the estate tonight, a housewarming celebration,” Scarlett said.

Tara thought for a moment, then nodded. “Sure!”

“Have First send you the address. See you tonight!” With that, Scarlett closed the car door and walked away.

Watching her leave, Tara couldn’t help but feel a pang of envy. How wonderful it would be if she could be as carefree as

Scarlett!
