“You don’t mean that.”
Of course he didn’t. He couldn’t.
Well, unless he was secretly holding a torch for her or something and just too afraid to admit it out loud for whatever reason. That certainly wouldn’t surprise her, especially given how used to having men lining up at her door and finding themselves all too quickly wrapped around her little finger Scarlett was. Cody was surely no different than all the rest. Well, other than the obvious signs anyway. He might not have been her type in any way, shape, or form, yet that didn’t mean he was automatically immune to her charms and impeccably stunning looks, either.
Opposites did attract, after all.
“If you truly wish you’d never met me, then what’re you still doin’ here? Why haven’t you gone out and found someone new to help you forget I ever even existed in the first place?”
Much easier said than done, especially given the level of power and recognition her family held throughout the state, but should he try hard enough, he might be able to find at least one or two who weren’t already well versed in all things Ewing.
