The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 278

~SCARLETT~

He was ignoring me. Carter was ignoring my question about Clara. Of course, he would; he loved frustrating me just like my sister did, apparently.

“I asked you about Clara!”

“Clara didn’t want to come,” he tells me as he starts the vehicle. My eyes widen as he backs out of the parking lot. “She wants to enjoy the party with that best friend of yours. She told me to drop you home and she will return later. Of course, she had a few interesting choices of words, but I chose to ignore them.”

I gape at him in shock. Why that little—I couldn’t believe my sister; I knew she wanted me to get closer to Carter, but did she understand the trap she was setting for me? I could barely stand the guy; how can I survive an entire drive to my home?

I swear Clara honestly doesn’t think about me sometimes. But I’m the one that agreed to do this for her; I’m to blame. I’m the one that set myself up for this disaster, and now I had to deal with the consequences.

“Are you sure she said that, or are you making it up?” I ask. I didn’t fully trust anything that came out of Carter’s mouth. I was still trying to come to terms with the fact that Clara had left me to fend for myself.

He pulls onto the main road and looks at me, “Are you calling me a liar, Scarlett?”

I hate hearing my name on his filthy mouth. No one ever said my name the way that he does. There is just something about how he said it that made my blood boil.

I don’t respond to him, and he doesn’t bother pestering me.

“Do your parents know you left the house like that?” He asks me as he lets his gaze travel down my body.

“Look at the road.” I snap as I pull his shirt tighter around me.

My body, for some reason, felt wide awake after he stared at it. It’s almost like my body was saying, look at me again.

I didn’t know I had it in me to enjoy when someone looked at me with such reckless desire. It usually irritated me. This was a first for me.
