Flirting With My Ex-husband novel Chapter 1013

As the sun was scorching, Rowan, who didn't have the heart to tire Scarlett, declined her offer to support him and, leaning on his walking stick, walked forward unaided.

Yair, next to him, held an umbrella for him. Scarlett and Viviana followed in their wake.

Scarlett didn't know much about Woodlin Town either, so she couldn’t provide Rowan with any information.

Rowan didn't seem to need Scarlett to say anything. He came here because he wanted to find out what the place where Perry had grown up looked like.

Before leaving for this place, he had psyched himself up. The county seat, though much less prosperous than Deeton City, had a lot of tall buildings in it, and the transportation there was very convenient, and it had a modern air about it. Woodlin Town was a town, so Rowan had believed that it was inferior to the county.

But it surprised Rowan that the town was inferior to such a great extent.

Looking at the dilapidated houses on the two sides and the shabby street, he couldn't imagine what the Booker family’s house was like.

Though Scarlett had never told him explicitly, he could sense that the Booker family had not treated Pearl nicely, because otherwise they would have long since moved out of this town into the county seat, given how great store Scarlett had always put by her filial duties.

Having found out that his daughter had been sold to a place like this, Rowan had mixed feelings.

While Scarlett and the others were progressing, Gormend, having recognized Scarlett, was no longer in the mood for playing cards. He excitedly jumped, set aside his very good hand and hurried in the direction where Scarlett had gone. His " blood brothers" with whom he had been lollygagging called after him at the top of their lungs, but he did not so much as look back at them.

"Cousin!"

The sudden sound of the form of address struck Scarlett as rather presumptuous and she couldn't help but frown. Viviana next to her looked at the young man who had come out of nowhere, her face sullen. "Who are you? We don't know you."

Having noticed that the young man was gazing at Scarlett offensively, Viviana promptly interposed herself between them to block his view of Scarlett.

Gormend, after taking a closer look at Scarlett, was taken aback. He thought,' Goodness me! She's so freaking hot!

If I marry her, those bastards will be green with envy!'
