Rex's step suddenly stopped. He looked at her surprised, "Y-You know he's still following you?"
"Hhmm! I know you very well! You won't let him stop to follow me. So, I activated Seven's tracker!" Scarlett said while narrowing her eyes, unhappy that Rex had used his rank to suppress Seven.
"Big Brother! Stop abusing your rank at Seven! If you're still doing that..." She deeply breathed, "...don't blame me if I go straight to One!"
Rex could only flash his defeated smile.
"You can ask him to join us!" Rex finally said and rushed out of the room. He knew this girl was right; he used his rank to push his juniors, but he was willing to break the rules for her safety.
Scarlett was surprised to see Logan and Cruz standing outside her office; their expressions looked tense as if they had just fought!
"Why are you two blocking my door!?" Scarlett narrowed her eyes, looking at them, trying to read their sour expressions. "Are you guys fighting? Why!?" She continued.
Logan couldn't answer her. He lowered his head to avoid her gaze while keeping his worries and anger inside.
Previously, when he saw Rex enter Scarlett's office, he chased after him, but this stupid Cruz stopped him. If only Cruz wasn't his young madam's assistant, he would have already beaten him until this silly Cruz, and no one recognizes his face!
A frown appeared on her face when no one answered her!
"Logan? What happened...Tell me!" Scarlett's voice made Logan look at her again.
"Y-Young madam, I was just worried about you!" Logan glanced at Rex, who leaned his body on the door frame.
As Logan's eyes met Rex's, the man gave him a devilish smile. Logan frowned! He didn't like this man, being close to Scarlett after what happened a few weeks ago when he suddenly appeared and took her way.
"Why are you worried?" Rex said as his eyes deepened into Logan. "This is her office. Nothing will hurt her, right..." He paused when a thought crossed his mind.
"Fuck!!" Rex continued his words with a chuckle. "You think I'm going to hurt her?" His evil laugh echoed throughout the room and made everyone turn their eyes toward him.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Scarlett "..."
Logan "..."
Cruz, who was standing beside Logan, silently chuckled. He wanted to say something, but his words stopped on the tip of his tongue when he remembered how Logan almost hit him!
"Logan, I'm fine! Don't worry about me." Scarlett said, "Alright. Let me formally introduce you to this man. He is Rex Morrison. I consider him like my elder brother!" Then she looked at Rex, "Brother, this is Logan, my assistant and personal guard."
"Your dog!!" Said Rex inwardly. He knew this man was one of Xander's people, and he didn't like him. However, for Scarlett's sake, he had to put on a fake smile and greet him.
He stepped forward and reached for a handshake, "Logan, nice to meet you! Please take care of my little sister. She's a little weak and clumsy!" Rex said carelessly. With a rueful smile, he glanced at Scarlett.
Scarlett, "..."
As for Logan, he almost choked. Young madam, weak!?? If he had never seen her beating gangsters at B Island, perhaps he would have believed it. This woman, although her body was small, and her face looked harmless. But, he could feel her aura like a demoness in disguise. He believed his young madam could kill someone without even batting an eye.
"Mr. Morrison, nice to meet you!" Logan politely accepted Rex's handshake, his face stiff as before, as he couldn't smile despite his efforts. In his mind, this man threatened his Master's marriage.
"Logan, Cruz, I'm going out for lunch! You two don't need to join me. I'm just going for a few minutes..." Scarlett said and dragged Rex to the elevator.
"Boss!! Let me come with you..." Cruz shouted and walked quickly after them.
So did Logan. Naturally, he walked towards the elevator. He couldn't let Rex take his young madam for a second time!
"NO!" Rex snapped. His terrifying gaze seemed sharp enough to make Cruz and Logan stop their steps.
After the elevator doors in front of them closed, Cruz turned to Logan beside him.
With pitiful-looking eyes, Cruz said, "Dude!! You can't do anything..." He said, walking back inside the office. "Logan, forget what you were thinking. Young Master Rex was a ruthless man! You might get hurt if you force yourself to follow them." He continued without looking back.
Logan rubbed his brows. He seemed to be thinking about something deeply. After a while, he took out his cell phone and sent a message to his Master.
While in the lobby...
Scarlett and Rex were about to leave the elevator when they saw Seven walking towards it.
Seven's steps abruptly stopped when he saw the figure walk beside Scarlett. He turned around and wanted to escape, but it was too late! He hears Rex's chilly voice calling his name.
'Shit!!' Seven inwardly cursed as he turned back, looking at them again. He put on his harmless smile. "T-Two!! Why did you come here!?"
'Did he already know that for the second time, I failed to spy on Scarlett!?' Seven thought to himself as he glanced at Scarlett for help.
Scarlett smiled faintly, motioning for Seven to follow them out of the building.
That afternoon the sun was shining, but the air was chilly in early autumn. Scarlett tightened her light coat and walked towards the restaurant.
Several girls who passed them envied Scarlett, flanked by two handsome and tall men. She just smiled secretly and enjoyed those envious-looking eyes.
Once on a slightly quiet street, she glanced at Seven on her left side, "Did you read my message? I sent it to you a few minutes ago!!"
"Ah, I haven't checked my phone yet!" Seven replied. His steps felt heavy. He was reluctant to follow them, but after receiving a glare from Rex, he could only walk following them.
