Chapter 164 Fall In Love With Him



"I know! Well, it\'s been a few months since you returned, and you seem to have settled here!" He said while walking towards the seating area. "Did you really forget to come back to New York!?"

Rex then joins Scarlett in the seating area. He unbuttoned his black suit and then sat across from Scarlett. He casually crossed his legs, and his gaze met her eyes.

His blue eyes narrowed slightly, his lips breaking into a smile that could numb Scarlett\'s tongue. She suddenly forgets the purpose of calling him here.

Sigh!

"Why did you suddenly call me here?" Rex finally asked, after he saw the girl didn\'t say a word like she was in a daze.

Scarlett stood and looked at him, "Do you want anything to drink, Rex? Coffee? Tea? I don\'t have any liquor. Sorry."

It was strange because it was the first time she felt intimidated in front of him. This kind of feeling was entirely new to her. She had to calm her mind first before talking to him.

"Whatever you drink!" Rex said, then he supported his head with one hand as he watched the girl\'s back walk away to a corner. His lips curved up slightly to form a faint smile.

He could sense something odd in her behavior. It was unusual for this girl to stay silent when they met. Usually, she would bombard him with useless information.

\'Something is bothering her!? Tsk! Did she fight with that damn Xander!?\' Rex wondered as a smile appeared on his face. He really expected that!

Rex couldn\'t stand having Xander around her for too long, especially since he and Xander had clashed. He feared Xander might have a hidden agenda to seek revenge through her!

He leaned back against the sofa when he saw her done with what she was doing and walked back carrying two white cups in her hand.

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ Her simple movements, graceful and alluring, could make his mind go crazy just by looking at them.

Rex had known her since her early teens. Back then, he thought of her as his little sister, which he never had. However, he didn\'t know when he started to have feelings for her. All he could remember was that a greedy desire to possess this girl\'s heart suddenly tormented his mind in the few years after she had grown up.

He looked at her differently from all the girls he had met. Only this girl can make him not want to rush to own her heart. Don\'t want to hurt her, he only wanted to protect her, and even he was willing to defend her with his own life. That was how deep this girl meant to him.

"How is your work? Everything is alright?" Rex makes small talk before asking about her life with that damn Xander.

"Work? Not bad..." Scarlett put the teacup on the coffee table and sat back in her seat. She continued, "We got a new movie deal with Uncle Harvey!"

"Really!?" Rex was surprised. "...If I\'m not mistaken, you said you don\'t want to take on any new projects, you were busy with your game project, right!?"

"Yeah! But, uncle Harvey forced me to accept this project. And after I read the script, I immediately liked it. So, I couldn\'t refuse this offer..." an amused grin crossed Scarlett\'s lips.

"That\'s good! But don\'t push yourself too hard. You have a lot of talented people in your company, trust them a little bit, and lower your perfectionist standards!" He chuckled, remembering how perfectionist this girl was.

"Gosh!! Can we stop talking about work? I suddenly feel dizzy!" She gives a rueful smile before taking a sip of her tea.

She saw Rex also drinking his tea. She waited. Not in a hurry to tell him.

After she saw him put his teacup down on the table, she did too.

Rex\'s fingers tapped on his thighs in a slow rhythm as his eyes straight into hers. After a few moments passed, he asked, "So tell me, why did you call me here?"

Scarlett took a deep breath before she dared to say her lines.

But before she could say Anything, Rex said, "Did you fight with your fake husband? And you called me here to beat him up?" He discreetly chuckled when he saw her face turn red.

Scarlett, "..."

Gosh! She hadn\'t even said anything; this man wanted to use violence. How sly!

"No! Precisely the opposite..." All the beautifully arranged words in her mind vanished for the umpteenth time. Geez! She couldn\'t believe she would be this stupid in front of him!

Rex rubbed his brows and looked at her, who had her head lowered like an ostrich.

"The opposite? What do you mean?"

"I\'m in love with Xander Riley!" Scarlett\'s voice was barely audible and slightly trembled. But her words, despite sounding so low and nearly unheard, were enough to make Rex\'s heart almost stop beating.

\'Fall in love with Xander Riley!? Was this girl bewitched? Why did she fall in love with Xander just a few weeks after they met!?\' It was difficult for Rex to understand.

Rex looked her straight in the eyes. "Say what, Scarlett Piers!?" His icy tone was enough to make the temperature in the room drop to zero.

"Brother Rex, I know you hear me!" Scarlett stared back at him, trying not to avoid this conversation anymore.

No matter how angry he was, Rex tried to control his emotions. He couldn\'t vent his anger on her. This girl was so precious to him!

"No! You need to repeat it! I can\'t hear you clearly the first time!!" He said.

Rex\'s gaze slowly made Scarlett feel under pressure. She took a deep breath to relieve the tightness in her chest.

"Brother Rex, I\'m in love with Xander Riley! So, we\'ve decided to cancel our marriage contract..."

"STOP!" Rex raised his hand.

Scarlett gasped. Seeing how ugly his expression was now, a vein popped out on his forehead.
