The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 297 ~SCARLETT~

I’m already tipsy when Atticus appears out of nowhere and sweeps Autumn off her feet. Literally.

“Where’s he taking her?” I ask Clara.

She shrugs her shoulder, “I guess home. They’re getting married soon.”

I can barely pay attention to her words when I spot Carter. He’s even more dashing tonight for some reason. Maybe it’s because I’ve had too many drinks.

“I think that’s enough now,” Clara whispers as she takes the bottle from me. “We don’t want you too drunk, or you’ll pass out before getting a chance to flirt with Carter.”

Flirt with Carter. I didn’t have a clue about flirting with anyone.

I watch in annoyance as a woman throws herself into his arm and immediately starts kissing on his neck.

His eyes find me, and they narrow slightly. He slowly pushes her away from him, and I’m not sure why he did it.

I take a deep breath and walk towards the beach. I could hear Clara calling after me, but I ignored her. Even under the influence of alcohol, I knew I had to keep my distance from Carter. He did things to my body that frightened me.

I didn’t want to be one of his many girls. I didn’t want to be treated like the rest. I deserved more than that.

Why am I even thinking like this? Am I forgetting that the only reason any of this has been happening is because of Clara and her thirst for revenge?
