Chapter 7
Start of something new…
Scarlett walked to the door but checked in the mirror before opening it. She wore a large gray sweater with black leggings. She had on long boots with gray and black fur at the top and little balls that tied. She opened the door and saw Chris standing there. Scarlett stood in surprise.
“Chris. This is a surprise. Come in please.”
She stepped to the side allowing him to enter.
“Scarlett we need to talk.”
“About?”
“You and my brother.”
They sat down and Chris cleared his throat.
“I first wanted to personally thank you.”
“Thank me?”
“You came in here and you made such an impact on this company and my brother.”
Chris pulled out a paper. “This was posted this morning.”
Scarlett took the paper and saw a picture of herself with Christian, Chris, and Jayla from last night. Chris grabbed her hand.
“I have never seen him so happy. He seems so content with his life and so much in love.”
“Love? You think he loves me?”
“Yeah he reminds me of myself when I met Jay. And that is why I need to talk to you.”
“Ok.”
He turned towards Scarlett.
“Scarlett I don't know how to put this so I am just going to say it if you’re going to be here you need to know what you are getting yourself into.”
“Such as?”
“If you want to be in a relationship with Christian then you are going to get phone calls from strange women claiming to have been with him. You are going to have to deal with our mother. And you need to know that we are the job. Work comes first for us.”
“Women actually do that?”
“Christian and I are wealthy. Women want that. But you need to trust what you feel for him. Scarlett I like you. We have always been able to talk and you and Christian are a perfect match. Trust that.”
“I do. It’s just.”
“Just what?”
“I don’t know I guess I just feel like with Jonah this with Christian is going to be short lived. You said Jonah and I would make a good couple too.”
“I introduced you to Jonah because I thought he would be a nice distraction from Christian and whatever happened with that whole situation I am sorry but I do think that you and Christian would be good together and if you feel something for him then give it try. The worse thing that could happen is it doesn’t work out.”
“You are right. Thank you.”
Chris stood. “You are welcome. Now if you will excuse me I need to pick Jayla up before we are late.”
“You really think we are good together?”
“I do you complete him and I get the feeling he does that for you.” Chris hugged her and walked to the door.
“Good luck.”
Chris walked out the door and Scarlett stared at the news clippings. She felt overwhelmed with emotions. She never thought she would meet someone who made her feel the way Christian did. She walked over to the table in the hall and picked up her cell. She dialed and felt at ease as she heard her mother on the other end.
