Julian let go of her, re-fastening the completely undone strap, and the threatened Scarlett Xavier was quite indignant, muttering under her breath, "Couldn't find me before the divorce, but after it, I can go and find whoever I want, right?"
"What did you say?" Julian heard her mumbling to herself, likely not saying anything nice, and shot her a glare.
Scarlett chuckled, "Oh nothing, I was just praising your kindness."
"..."
The two returned home, Scarlett got out of the car first, walking ahead, while Julian followed behind, watching her walk alone with an air of nonchalance, and couldn't help but frown.

When they arrived home, Mrs. Rhodes saw them returning together and was very pleased.
After all, she had asked Scarlett to check on Julian to help them bond.
