"You don't know about the news between you and Baron Lawrence?"
"What news about me and Brother Baron? I really have no idea." Scarlett widened her eyes, a surprised and innocent expression on her face, "Daddy, what are you talking about?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Willie raised his hand and—
"Slap!" The crisp sound of the slap echoed throughout the villa.
