"Did he know about our deal?" Xander asked.
Scarlett's heart raced. Afraid that Rex had already told Xander about it, he was now testing her.
Now, she was confused about whether, to be honest with him or keep it to herself.
After she heard her internal thoughts, she said, "Nope..." She calmly said. But inside, she felt terrible for lying to him.
'This is the right choice, Scarlett! Better than being honest with him, you will only add fire to him.' She tried to put a spell on her mind so she wouldn't feel too guilty after lying to Xander.
She had to do that because she could feel the man beside her, very annoyed. But, strangely, even though he was annoyed, he didn't utter anything. And that made her even more confused with his attitude.
Scarlett found it challenging to deal with Xander. Sometimes, she felt worried about making him angry or hurt. Why did she feel like this?
