She desperately needed someone\'s shoulder to assuage her anger at times like this. But then, her mind becomes much less hazy, and her heart almost stopped when she realized her arms were wrapped around Xander\'s sturdy waist. She hugs him tightly.

Instantly, she pulled her body away from Xander and lowered her head to hide her ripe tomato-like face.

\'Damn you, Scarlett!! How can you take advantage of this Ice Prince at a time like this!?\' She cursed inside, lowering her head deeper, and didn\'t dare to see Xander\'s face.

Scarlett thought Xander would be angry or tease her because she dared to hug him back. However, she was wrong because Xander\'s following sentence seemed to pull her back to reality.

"Do you need my help?" His voice sounded gentle, but she could tell cold anger was coming from it.

Looking up, she saw a pair of gentle and clear eyes. She was touched by Xander\'s concern.

\'How much has he heard?\' Scarlett clenched her fists in embarrassment because this man must have overheard her family\'s bickering.

Scarlett pondered Xander\'s words for a moment.

Does she need his help to finish off that bitch, Lauren? No, of course not. She would easily handle that shameless bitch herself and doesn\'t need to bother anyone or anyone\'s help.

The bitch Lauren really challenged Scarlett\'s patience. When Scarlett tries to forget Lauren\'s evil deed to repay her care for her when she was a child — even though she mostly tortures her — still that bitch squandered her kindness.

"Are you sure? Maybe your father needs the best doctor from the capital..." Xander\'s deep eyes stared at her. He could tell this girl was really mad, but it was weird because she was still smiling. Is she okay?

Somehow he felt hurt when he heard her stepmother insult her with harsh words. And seeing her slightly reddened eyes could make his heart stir. He wanted to pull her once more between his arms and comfort her.

He didn\'t understand why. Every time he saw this girl by his side, his heart grew greedy. He wanted to protect her and make her happy.

Why is he like this?

No matter how hard he tries to find out, he still doesn\'t understand his feelings. But, clearly, he felt this was not a bad thing. This is something good.

"For that, I will tell you after I find out the real situation that happened there..." Scarlett said.

Even though she was worried about what happened to her father, she didn\'t want to completely believe that damn woman\'s words.

What if this is a new trap she had set for her?

What if, when she shows up on island B, someone kidnaps her and tortures her?

Lots of possibilities came to mind. As if Scarlett\'s mind subconsciously wants to give her a warning. The woman she is facing is Lauren Piers. Never before in her entire life had Scarlett met a very cunning, dishonest, and shameless woman like that.

"Okay, but you have to remember... Even though our marriage is based on a contract, I am your husband legally. I will be responsible for you throughout our marriage. And you also have the right to ask anything from me, including when you need help like this."

Scarlet was stunned. She could see his eyes reflected sincerity. She couldn\'t reply to his words but could only nod slowly in response that she understood what he meant.

"Now, you can go take a shower. It\'s already late…." Xander smiled.

She picked up her cell phone on the floor and quickly went to the bathroom. She could feel Xander\'s eyes still on her. Her heart was pounding as she closed the bathroom door and locked it.

\'That man, how could he torment me with his seductive, almost naked body!?\' Scarlett could feel how hot her face was now as the image of Xander\'s body that she saw outside came back to her mind.

If only that bitch Lauren didn\'t call, maybe this night would be a long night to \'enjoy\' Xander\'s torment. And intimate contact like before will never happen again in the future.

\'Lauren!! Why spoil this rare moment??\' Scarlett could only vent her frustration inside her head.

She rubbed her chest while staring at her reflection in the mirror. She couldn\'t believe how red her face was now as if someone had just smeared strawberry jam on her face.

Gosh, this is insane!

"Stop acting weak in front of him, Scarlett!! You must keep your demeanor, or that guy will run away from you because you\'re too aggressive!" She couldn\'t stop scolding herself for not being able to contain her feelings when she saw him.

Scarlett pinched her cheeks with her hands feeling embarrassed remembering the time they hugged. Without a single piece of cloth, she can feel his warmth.

She still remembers the warmth of his body flowing through the pores on her cheeks. And his unique scent still assaults her nostrils.

Her face was even warmer. And her smile grew wider.

pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ "Wake up, Scarlett! Wake up from this dream. Stop messing with your mind! You have more important things to do now!"

Scarlett immediately took her cell phone and called someone. She needed to check what really happened to her father.

30 minutes passed...

Scarlett snapped at the knock on the door, followed by Xander\'s voice calling her name. She was shocked to realize that she had almost spent the night soaking in the warm water.

She quickly got out of the bathtub — the water had now turned cold. And wrapped her naked body in a white bathrobe that she found on a shelf. And wrapped her wet hair in a towel.

After making sure her bathrobe was neatly tied, hiding her curves, she opened the door.

The towering Xander stood in front of her. She gasped at how handsome he looked in his casual home clothes, white shirt, and black sweatpants.

Before Scarlett could say anything, Xander gave her something.

"You can wear this. I\'ll work in the next room, so you can rest first..." He said and left the room without giving her a chance to speak.

Scarlett only smiled bitterly, seeing the man close the bedroom door.

The warm man who hugged her earlier disappeared without a trace.

"Oh my!! The Ice Prince is finally back."
