The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 269

Book 4 Chapter 4

“I don’t think you’re hearing yourself right now. Carter is YOUR ex-boyfriend. Why would I try to make him fall in love with me?” I ask her. “That’s too insane. I don’t like the guy; spending any time at all with him would be t*****e. I don’t want to be around him. I much rather lay in my bed, reading a romance novel.”

“Please,” Clara begs me. “You’re the only one I trust to do this for me. He will never expect someone like you to do something like this.”

“Someone like me?” I ask.

“Yes, you don’t care for him at all. So the mere fact that you’ll suddenly be showing him any attention at all would throw him off guard. If you surprise him, he will not be prepared at all.”

“I don’t think you’re listening to yourself here, Clara,” I hiss. “This is your ex-boyfriend. Carter Prince. The guy you were once in love with and probably still are. You’re asking me to pretend to have feelings for him and also to make him have feelings for me. Are you not hearing how insane this sounds? First, he would never fall for it; I’m nothing like the girls he goes for. Carter likes a certain type; you belong to the category of girls he dates. The popular, drop-dead gorgeous kind. I’m neither of those two, and the only time he noticed me was when I punched him in the face, which is something that would get anyone to notice me.”

“I have to agree with Scarlett,” Jenna finally cuts in. “Getting her to flirt with Carter is not a good idea. She’s your sister; I don’t think even Carter would fall for that. As bad as he is, I doubt he would want to try dating the girl that punched him. Plus, I don’t know if you’ve noticed this, but Scarlett doesn’t know how to flirt at all.”

me. Carter will fall for a woman that’s hard to get. None of the women around him poses a challenge. They all threw themselves at him, including me; I gave in very easily. He needs a girl like you, someone who’s hard to get, someone who puts up a fight and doesn’t let him get his way easily. It will be easy for you to do this because you don’t like him. You won’t fall for his charms, and he will be the only one falling. Believe me, Scarlett, I can get him to fall in love with you. And if you’re worried about your image, I can fix that.
