Chapter 233. We Miss You

“Don’t you miss me?” Scarlett laughed on the other side. Her hair was wet, and she was wearing a champagne-colored nightgown. She looked as pretty as ever.

“Of course I miss you, but I can’t do anything about it, right? I can’t cry on daddy’s shoulder as Brittany did.” Francis said. He came to the balcony and lit up a cigarette and felt a little relaxed.

“Brittany cried?” Scarlett asked in surprise.

“Yep, she cried for over an hour,” he said as he breathed out a plume of thick smoke.

Upon hearing that, Scarlett felt kind of guilty. Was she selfish? Was she a bad mother, a bad wife?

“Francis, do you resent me?” Scarlett asked as she Skyped with Francis.

“No, I support you!” Francis said. He hadn’t gotten into too much trouble before for imploring Scarlett to work less.

“Listen, I’m going to take a couple of days off once I get back from Portugal. We can spend time together as a family, alright? How does that sound?” Scarlett said.
