*Scarlet's Pov* 

 I told the maid to get out so I can freshen up. She gladly got out of the room, gushing about her non-existing ship between Jade and I. As soon as she went away, I sat in confusion. 

W, the comic I'm in, is supposed to be an action and drama genre. But instead, why is it turning into a romantic genre? What is my father doing?

But...the maid said I was his fiancee...was she telling the truth? 

What if she was? Being his fiancee...what would that feel like? 

The epic wink he gave me came flooding back, and I felt my cheeks heat up. What if I was his fiancee? I mean, he's honestly really hot...and his personality is quite hot...

I felt my heart flutter, but I only shook my head at the silly thought. 

I took out the phone he gave me, my thumb was hovering over the call button for his number. I cleared my throat, and hit the call button. He picked up instantly.  

"Hello? " I said, trying to sound normal. 

"What are you doing? " His deep, elegant voice came booming into the phone. Wait...elegant? When did I ever think off his voice like that? I felt my heart skip a beat. 

Ugh, I am not falling for this guy. 

"I'm sitting down. " I replied. I mentally facepalmed myself at the amazing response I gave. 

He let out a light chuckle. I felt my heart crawl with happiness. 

"Oh, I was just about to call you. I'll be busy tomorrow. So, are you doing ok? " He asked. 

"Yes..." I start off, but I remembered the reason why I called him. "Why did I become your fiancee? " Just saying the word fiancee out loud to him made me cringe. 

"Ah...maids and workers are going in and out of my house. They'll think it's weird that I brought home and attractive women over without any reason. I can't tell them that I'm keeping you imprisoned either. " He laughed. "Are you mad? "

I picked on my cuticle. "Not really..."

"Will the situation get difficult if your boyfriend finds out? " He sounded like he was serious. 

"I don't have a boyfriend? " I reminded him. 

"You don't have a boyfriend? How did that happen? " 

"Do I have to have a boyfriend? "

"No. But a person like you has more than enough charm to get one. Why don't you have one? " I couldn't tell whether he was joking or telling the truth. 

"Are you joking? You said that if I can be a beauty, everyone can be one. " I bit my lip. 

"You might not be a beauty, " ouch  "but you have more than enough charm to get one. " He said. "Like...a good idiotic charm. " I sighed at the compliment. Why is it that even at those rude words, my heart still races? 

"Hello? " He sounded concerned. "Are you mad? I was kidding, you know. " 

"No, no. It's just, why is that even when you say something so obnoxious, my heart still races? "

He laughed at my question. 

"Hey! Don't you think you're having too much fun for imprisoning me? " I pinched the bridge of my nose, annoyed. 

"Hey...if you want to go home, you can call me anytime. You know right? " He informed. "Goodbye. Talk to you later. " He sounded serious for a second. 

Now is my chance, I can surprise him and go back!

"I love you! " I yelled into the phone before he hung up. I looked around the room, only to find myself still in this world. I fell back into my chair, disappointed. 

"You know those words don't work on me right? " You can practically hear the smile in his voice.

"I know, but you called me charming so I thought, maybe, it would work. As I thought, it didn't."

"Ok. Bye now. " He hung up. 

I clutched my fast beating heart. "Ugh, why is this happening to my heart? "
