Chapter 289 Scarlett''s Little Temper
Dexter was in his study.
Dexter, Lukas, Scarlett, and Casey were standing opposite each other at this moment.
Dexter''s face looked gloomy and odd, and his two eyes kept sweeping around Casey and Scarlett, as if
his girl he had worked so hard to raise for more than 20 years had really been sold to a "pig".
Lukas stared at Scarlett with gloat. He was usually bullied by Scarlett at home all day long, and Dexter
always favored Scarlett, this time he finally caught the opportunity, of course, he had tough at
Scarlett freely.
Scarlett''s face was red and she kept her head down, ying with her fingertips. She had only wanted
to y a joke with Casey, but who knew that this scene would be seen by Lukas, and this guy had
even told Dexter, so now she would be ashamed in front of her father.
Casey was calm, after all, nothing happened between them. But Casey’s calmness, in Dexter''s view, is
his indifference, no matter what, Casey is a man, he certainly will not lose anything, and of course, he
could be calm.
"Scarlett, aren''t you usually cold to the men around you, why are you be so bold now, to take the
initiative to run to Casey''s room and to do... that kind of thing with him, don''t you know that he is
already married?" Dexter said furiously.
Scarlett hurriedly exined, "Dad, it''s not what you think, I just wanted to make a joke with Casey."
"Oh god, sis, your joke is a little too open, this is the first time I saw you making a joke with a man by
undressing your clothes." Lukasughed loudly.
Scarlett red at him and said, "I was trying to change clothes in Casey''s room, I have asked him out,
you came in when Casey was about to walk towards the outside, can’t you see that?"
"He went over to close the door, didn''t he? And why are you changing clothes not in your own room but
in Casey’s room? How does it make sense?." Lukas teased.
Scarlett was so anxious and helpless, now she really couldn’t exin anything. Even she herself,
simply also couldn’t figure out why she had to run to Casey''s room to change clothes.
Dexter sighed helplessly, looked at Casey and said, "Casey, if you are interested in my daughter, you
can tell me, but you are already married, and from what I know about you, you shouldn''t do such a
thing, howe you are getting involved with my daughter."
Casey looked at Dexter and said, "Mr. Green, this time it''s really a misunderstanding, I couldn’t
understand why your daughter would go to my room to change clothes, and I can tell you clearly that I
have no feelings to your daughter, so I won''t do anything to her."
Both Scarlett and Dexter were startled, not expecting Casey to say such words.
"Casey, you bastard, what do you mean by that, are you saying that I''m not attractive to you?" Scarlett
said indignantly.
"Casey, are you saying that my daughter is not good enough for you?" Dexter was also full of anger.
"Uh, you can say that." Casey said.
Dexter and Scarlett were all so upset that they almost wanted to go to give Casey a heavy punch.
Dexter didn''t know Casey''s real identity and only thought that he said those words just because he was
good at chess, in his opinion, Casey was too arrogant to dare to say that.
"Father, this guy is just too abominable, do you think I would fall in love with him? It''spletely a
misunderstanding, there is no way I would love a rash guy like him." Scarlett acted as if she was
venting her spleen to Casey and hurriedly made her attitude clear to him.
The other side, Lukasughed uproariously, how could he have thought that Scarlett had taken the
initiative to seduce Casey, but Casey still couldn''t sense it, for so long, it was the first time a man dared
to say no to Scarlett.
Dexter was angry and flung his arms, said, "Casey, my daughter is at least a well-known beauty, you
say those words to her, isn’t it so inappropriate? Even if our Green family needs you for tomorrow''s
"Sorry, I didn''t mean that. What I mean is that I already have a wife, and my wife is my only love in my
whole life, so I won''t be interested in other women, I don’t intend to belittle your daughter." Casey said
seriously.
Dexter sighed, looking at Casey''s face, he did not look like he was being perfunctory, the more he
argued about this matter, the moreplicated it became, and in the end it would only make Scarlett
more embarrassed, so he changed the subject.
"Forget it, this matter ends here, Scarlett, you are a girl, from now on change your clothes in your own
room, do not run to Casey’s room to change your clothes, and do not have any thoughts about Casey.
After he helps us win the chesspetition, I will send him back shortly." Dexter said.
"Hmph, I won''t have any thought about him, he is not a good man. I, Scarlett Green, won''t consider him
even if I will never marry anyone in my life!" Scarlett said firmly.
Lukas looked at Scarlett''s face, with his understanding of Scarlett, he knew that Scarlett was speaking
out of anger, if she really had no idea about Casey, she would have ignored Casey long ago.
"Tonight there is a get-together among the young people in the QY Chess Association, they will discuss
tomorrow''spetition, Scarlett, you and Casey are the main yer of tomorrow''spetition, just
take Casey with you to the evening''s get-together, so that Casey and the people of the association can
get familiar with each other." Dexter added.
"Hmph, let Lukas take him there, I don''t want to go with him." Scarlett directly retorted.
"Sis, this is a get-together of your chess association, what am I going to do? I know you''re angry, but
you actually still want to go with Casey together, right?" Lukas said with a smile.
Scarlett raised her head arrogantly and said, "Unless he begs me."
Casey looked at Dexter and said, "Mr. Green, tell me the location, I can go by myself."
"Casey! You!" Scarlett once again looked at Casey, her pretty face looked so sad at this time. She had
never met anyone who took her as nothing in all her life.
Dexter was also about tough, and said, "All right, Scarlett, it''s all. Tomorrow’spetition is the most
important thing, you and Casey should go together."
In the evening, in Dexter’s car, Bruce drove while observing Casey and Scarlett from the rear view
mirror, he always sensed the tension between them in the air.
He did not know what happened between the two, only remembered that thedy was very warm to
Casey before, howe today she wore a cold face, and even deliberately distanced from Casey,
leaving a big space in the meddle of the back seat.
After a short time, Bruce parked the car in front of a luxuriously decorated restaurant and said to
Scarlett, "Miss, here we are."
Scarlett directly got out from the car and did not even wait for Casey, she quickly walked towards the
door.
Casey helplessly got out of the car and followed behind Scarlett. He really didn’t know much things
about men and women, he only felt that he was just telling the truth, who knew that Scarlett could be so

angry.
Women, indeed, were mysterious creatures.
Scarlett walked very fast, as if she wanted to leave Casey behind deliberately, Casey followed her
closely and never fell behind.
Scarlett nced back from time to time, that grumpy little eyes, instead, looked cute indeed.
"Back then... maybe I say something wrong, I apologize to you, I don''t mean to belittle you in any way."
Casey said with a smile.
Scarlett saw that Casey apologized to her, she immediately felt much more refreshed, only she couldn''t
show it, otherwise wouldn''t she let Casey know that she was so easy to be bullied.
"Humph, who needs your apology, you don’t fall in love with me, ME either! Casey, Goody-goody."
Scarlett said.
"That''s not what I mean, I have a wife, so I won''t fall in love with girls except her, I hope you can
understand this." Casey said.
Scarlett hummed, she didn''t pay attention to Casey anymore, and continued to walk in front of him.
At this time, a handsome young man came over, his eyes lit up after seeing Scarlett and hurriedly
greeted her.
"Scarlett, you''ve arrived, I said I''d pick you up outside." The young man said.
This person was named Reginald Baker. He was a great yer, whose skill was only next to Scarlett’s
among the younger generation in the QY Chess Association, and he was also the young master of the
first-ss family the Baker family in QY City. He had adored Scarlett for a long time, only Scarlett felt
nothing to him, and she just remained polite to him only for the sake of the rtionship between their
two family - the Green family and the the Baker family.
It could be said that none of the young generation in QY City could be Scarlett''s favor, even if Reginald
was called the best young generation in QY City, Scarlett also had no feeling for him.
However, she would have such a deep feeling to the ordinary, married Casey, which would definitely
be the headline news if the people of QY City knew about it.
Casey walked behind Scarlett, Reginald looked at him and asked, "Who is this?"
"A deadbeat who insists on following me here and couldn''t be sent away." Scarlett said indignantly.
When Reginald heard this, his face immediately showed an expression of disgust, after which he
walked to Casey and said, "The Lady of the Green family is not the one you can follow just because
you want to? This is not the ce for you toe, I give you three seconds to get out of here or don''t
me me for being rude."
The reason why Scarlett said this was because she wanted to vent her anger towards Casey. In her
opinion, although Casey was powerful, but his background should be very ordinary, facing a rich
generation like Reginald, the pressure should still be quite heavy to him.
She knew the fact that Reginald was interested in her and if he knew that Casey was following her, he
would definitely not to be polite to him, and by then Casey would had no choice, but to ask her for help.
As long as Casey asked her for help, she would forgive him and introduce him to the people of QY
Chess Association.
She just wanted to save her face, at least she was the Lady of the Green family, she should always
have her own little temper, right? If Casey had a high EQ, he would definitely understand what she
meant.
"Uh, Ie with her to the party, I will also participate in tomorrow''spetition, so the Master of the
Green family asked me toe together." Casey exined.
Reginald snorted and said, "Can you stop pretending here, just look at yourself, those who can attend
the dinner today are the best chess yers in QY City, you are a nobody, how dare you to say you
want to attend our party? Aren''t you afraid of being humiliated toe here?"
"I didn''t lie to you, you can ask Scarlett if you don''t believe me." Casey said.
"You are a liar, just now Scarlett said that you were the one who followed her shamelessly, now we are
going to go inside for a dinner, just go back to where you belong." Reginald said rudely.
Scarlett looked at Casey with expectation, thinking that he could not exin clearly here and would
definitely beg her, so that she could save her face.
However, what she didn''t expect was that Casey looked at Reginald and said, "Well, it doesn''t matter
whether I join in the dinner or not, anyway, then I won''t go in and I just wait here."
