Chapitre 247: Unique Hobby

"Baby, what are you doing there?" 

Xander's voice snapped Scarlett back to reality. She turned to face him, trying to hide the turmoil of thoughts swirling inside her head. "Oh, nothing, just lost in thought," she said, giving him a small smile.

He could sense that something was bothering Scarlett, but he didn't push her. Instead, he wrapped his arms around her and held her close. "You know you can always talk to me, right?" he said, kissing her forehead softly.

Scarlett nodded, grateful for Xander's understanding. She realized her mind was distracted by her plan to find her mother's family and for that she felt regret for not being honest with him.

After pondering for a moment, Scarlett decided to tell Xander about her next plan.

"Xander, there is something I wanted to talk to you about," she said, pulling away from him slightly. 

Xander's eyes lit up with interest, and he looked at her expectantly.
