Chapter 56: Sharing The Same Room

How could she refuse Grandpa Riley's request? She better seduces this man, right!?

Scarlett slowly raised her hand and took Xander's hand. 

When their hands touched, she was stunned. She felt an electric shock spread all over her body. And at that moment, she realized that what she was doing was too bold. She gasps for being too daring to entice this Ice Prince. 

She could only curse herself for holding his hand bravely. Now, she has no choice but to finish what she started.

'It's just an act, Scarlett! Don't be nervous!' She warned her mind.

She can feel his emotions differently from usual. Still, she ignores it because, in that room, there's Old Riley, who is now staring at them. She can't let him know their secret. 

And she also hoped that the man beside her would recover soon, and act like usual.
