The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn

The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 315

~SCARLETT~

Clara was sitting across from me. I couldn’t look her in the eyes. She was convinced that I was only close to Carter because of her. She was confident that her plan was working. I wanted to tell her the truth. In fact, more than once tonight, the truth almost came out. But each time I opened my mouth to say something, nothing escaped.

I was ashamed and scared. I didn’t know how to tell my sister that I did the one thing she trusted me not to do. I didn’t know how to risk our relationship.

I wasn’t sure what was happening with Carter either. I didn’t know if he was honest with me or if it was all a lie. I didn’t know if I was one of his many experiments or not.

I never thought I would turn into one of the girls I’ve always disliked.

“There’s someone at the door,” Clara tells me, breaking me out of my thoughts.

I got up from the chair and walked over to the front door. I got there just in time to hear the doorbell once more.

When I opened the door, I saw a strange guy standing there. I’ve never seen him before.

“How can I help you?” I ask. “Are you here to see Clara?”

Usually, when men came to our home, they wanted to ask my sister out on a date.

He shook his head, “I didn’t come here for Clara; I came here for you.”

It takes me a few seconds to compose myself. Did I hear him correctly? He came here for me?

I clear my throat, “why exactly would you be here for me? Do I know you from somewhere?”

He chuckles, “We go to the same academy. I’ve been noticing you for a while. I wanted to come say hello.”
