She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 011 Pure Hatred
Sebastian’s POVScar shakes her head slowly, throwing her disappointment into my face: “So, she DOES know.”Does she have trouble understanding English? That’s not what I meant!“Saying you want me gone, and yet you report me to your daddy,” Scar sneers at Ava with pure viciousness in her voice, “I guess between your loving Romeo and my blood, you still want the latter just a tiny bit more, huh?”I can understand why Ava would hate her. I want to seal those poisonous lips too at moments like this.“You took him from me!” Ava bursts into a hysterical cry, “You did! You took him! He was mine! We were meant to be together!”“Okay,” Scar is calm while smiling at Ava, too calm for me to recognize. The red palm prints on her cheek adds a touch of seductive fragileness to her, “If you beg your daddy to let me go, I will divorce him, today.”I roll my eyes with a huff.She is just playing Ava, but Ava would fall for it. I would have married Ava even if I couldn’t cure her.Ava cries harder.“

Sebastian's POVI felt that something was off with her, now I know.It’s her loving eyes. She has been looking at me with obvious love in those eyes even before we were old enough to understand what love is, and she never hides that.That love was still there even this morning, when she gave me the divorce papers. But now, that lively light is gone.I could barely recognize her without it.I feel like I lost something important. It’s not supposed to be this way.Her love has always been a bother to me. If she didn’t love me, she wouldn’t have blackmailed me, and I wouldn’t have hated her. I wouldn’t have been locked into a marriage I didn’t want, and I would have been with Ava!If she didn’t love me, none of this would have happened. She would save Ava just like the sister she should be, and I would have been with Ava, just like how I wanted since the first time I met her.But she did give her love to me. She gave it, and now she is taking it back. And I feel at a loss.It’s not fair.

Scarlett’s POVCrushing at Aurora’s place, I slept - more like, blacked out - for three whole days due to a low fever after that horrible fallout with my, well, ex-family.I no longer have a home.Of course, Sebastian didn’t reach out. Surprisingly though, nor did the divorce papers that he said I could expect in two to three days.“Back to life, sleeping beauty?” A big smile crawls onto Aurora’s face when she comes in with a glass in her hand, “How do you feel?”Numb. So, better than most days.“Ginger honey water,” Aurora settles down by my side as I rub my face to try to wake up more, “It helps with the fever. No argument.”I hate ginger, she knows! But I also know I can’t afford to joke with my body, now more than ever. I have a little thing in my womb to take care of.“I guess that means you are keeping the baby?” Aurora’s eyes land on my belly, where I’m stroking subconsciously.“Ohh, I didn’t know I had a choice,” I roll my eyes at her.“We can find you a state that allows--”“N

Scarlett’s POVJust two words. From three days ago. That’s all he has to say after I disappear for three days? If I didn’t have Aurora to turn to, but just died in some dark corner that no one knows, he wouldn’t even know until the cops find me first.So he imagined after seeing that they treat me like shit, I burst out, just to “come home” and everything will get back to how it was?I stare at those two words so hard that my eyes hurt, suddenly having such an urge to laugh--Either he didn’t take the divorce papers seriously, or he doesn’t understand what a divorce means.“Coming home”? Could a house be called a home if the couple sharing it is no longer married? After that ugly fallout, after I saw clearly the true faces of these so-called “family”, after he snatched the divorce papers out of me just in case I would go back on my words, he asked:Are you coming home?To do what? To give him love in exchange for his hatred? To flatter him after his day of being Ava’s loyal knight? To

Scarlett’s POVWorking on my script for the whole day, I was drowning in an unfamiliar sense of satisfaction. I have put “family” as the core of my life for so long, that I forgot the fun of living for myself.When I finally put it down, I almost missed my date with Aurora. Hurrying out of her place, I got to Nightingale 10 minutes to 8. I prefer being early.I wish I didn’t.Nightingale is the biggest nightclub in town. Best place for entertainment for any and everyone, so long as you can afford a drink. We used to come here all the time in college, enjoying its “safe hour” for a little alcohol and a lot of fun.8 pm to midnight, four hours of light, fun music with drinks and chats and snacks. Safe hour. Because after midnight, the heart-pumping DJ would get up there and boil this place into a crazy porridge. Drugs, sex...You name it.But tonight, the safe hour is not safe, for me.I ordered a non-alcohol at the bar. I regret coming in the moment the bartender shoots me that weird gl

Scarlett’s POV“What?” I shouldn’t have, but I laughed out loud.Even for Ava, it’s a bit too dramatic.“You, want, her, dead,” Gabriel says with a stone-cold voice. He is actually serious. His gang shoots me the disdain looks as if among them, a group of bullies, I’m the most wicked.“Did Ava mention that the last time I saw her was in her dear daddy’s study? With her daddy, mummy, and her Romeo all around her?”“So?” Gabriel is not laughing, nor getting my implication.“So?” I cock my eyebrow, knowing if I roll my eyes right now I would definitely piss him off so I dare not, “So how do you even imagine that I could even lay a finger on her with her army protecting her?”“You didn’t lay a finger on her?” Gabriel stands up and walks to me in a dangerous stride, his tone getting meaner and colder, “Sure, not A finger. You left a fucking handprint on her forearm!”I frown. I did try to grab her arm, but I barely even closed my grip before Sebastian pushed me down onto the floor. How the

Sebastian’s POVScar stayed at Aurora’s for three days straight, completely shutting me out.I know I really messed up this time. I ignored the desperation in her eyes when she gave me the divorce papers, and saw only dramatic tricks like how she always does. Except this time when I tried to call her bluff, it wasn’t one.I try to stay to my routine, but it’s not the same.Scar keeps the dinner table clean except when we eat, and it has been clean in the past three days. But it feels colder. The bed feels colder. The whole house is colder. I have been going home to eat, to sleep, to change my clothes, but I don’t feel like going home. The house suddenly feels empty now.It feels worse than a hotel room.I don’t know what she is doing to me. If just to make me feel bad, then she did it.I don’t want to bear the punishment. I bury myself in work, and I left as late as I can before I come to this bar. I have heard stories about guys coming to get drunk after a divorce, and I used to snort

Scarlett’s POV“Stay back!” I shout, no longer care about attracting attention.“No one can save you,” Gabriel laughs, “No one will. You know why? Because you are THAT notorious, as much as your evilness deserves.”He strides over and I grab the beer bottle I have been glancing at. I knock it onto the table and get a weapon out of it.“Stay, back!” I point the sharp broken glass at Gabriel, backing as he approaches closer.“I dare you to try, my dear little sister,” Gabriel raises his head and shows his throat at me, “Be the murderer that you are, and let everyone see!”“You come one step closer, and I will stab this into MY throat!” I point the glass under my own jaw, “You know I will die because there won’t be enough blood for me in this city!”Gabriel bursts into laughter so hard that tears come out of him.“Seriously?” Gabriel laughs, not forgetting to point his damn camera still on me, “You think I’d care if you hurt yourself? I have got evidence shooting right now, showing that i

“Miss Fuller, it’s a pleasure to meet you,” Scott bows at Scar with a distant, polite manner, but Scar could swear that he let out the smirk he was holding back when he bent his head.WTF? Scott was the “mysterious prince” the Greens were going to announce today?! He is the son of Elijah Green?! He saw that she was avoiding his father, and he helped her? Does Scott know about Silco? What does this even mean?The million surprises blow up Scar’s mind.“Haven’t seen you for a long time, Scott!” Ava gives him a bright smile, her eyes glittering with such pleasure.“We met just the other day in the Knight building,” Scott returns that smile with just the same excitement if not more, “You might not remember because you glanced at me but didn’t stop to talk when I greeted you. Didn’t recognize me, I presume?”&
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 286 The Lost Prince
Scar is seriously considering it now.She can’t sue them if they just witnessed a car accident, no matter how horrible it is to watch a mom die while taking her baby from her side. They could -- they would, Scar is sure -- claim that Emma begged them to save her baby. In fact, that was Jack Fuller’s first version of the “truth”, when Scar tried to find her own family.But if they were involved in the car accident? She might be able to sue them! Given that IF Scar can prove it, within the deadline of prosecution.How long is it for a hit and run? Scar is not sure.“Tell me what happened then,” Scar demands, but she wouldn’t budge even though the Green Lady is getting suspicious as her eagle eyes dart over at their whispering.“Don’t push it!” Anna Fuller warns.The Green Lady stares at Scar with suspicious eyes, and so is everyone who’s been waiting for Sophia Green’s announcement. No time to hesitate, but can she trust Anna Fuller again? The woman who has been a liar, the best liar in
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 285 Hit And Run
Granny said that?Anna Fuller is obviously unaware of that, unlike Ava. But Ava, obviously, didn’t think Sebastian would mention that here. Scar shares Ava’s surprise actually--Does he know that he is treading on thin ice of Ava’s lie??But none is as surprised as the Green Lady—“Wait, didn’t you already got that promised wedding five years ago then? I went to your wedding!”Five years ago right after the legal files of his divorce with Scar was done, he married Ava with a grand wedding. The whole city celebrated their blessed day, forgetting about the former Mrs. Knight to the back of their mind to rot in prison.Scar purses her lips, having a hard time limiting her smile.So Ava not only painted herself as Sebastian’s woman in front of her, but actually in front of everyone? A loving mom taking her beloved daughter to visit a big power they wanted to suck up to at Christmas every year, happily painting a loving family picture with Scar out of it.What a perfect lie to blow up in A
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 284 The Iron Lady's Condition
The Green Lady turns around, pushing Anna Fuller’s arm away like a bulldog in the ring, and discreetly, Sebastian steps up with a bright grin, blocking Scar from her.“She refused to come today just because I invited you! I didn’t think she would actually do it but she did!” The Green Lady forgets about Scar already, “What a big deal could keep her from even talking to her so well-behaving grandson for years?!”Even Sebastian pauses for a second—Didn’t she do the same thing to her own daughter, too? She didn’t even come to Emma Vanderbilt’s funeral. Actually, no one in the family came, on her command apparently.Her words pause Scar’s anger for a second, too—For years? She thought Granny kicked Sebastian out as a show of attitude, partly to give him a chance to challenge himself without the Knight’s name paving his way. But she didn’t think Granny would actually not talk to him for years.Of all the people who ever cared for her, Scar feels guilty only to Granny.She has never seen
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 283 Angry Sophia
The event has nothing to do with Anna. Well, aside from the fact that she held it, as a way of sucking up to the Green lady.The Green Lady is here for the announcement of the return of the bastard – okay, to the public, the lost son – of Elijah Green. It wasn’t for Anna, and it certainly wasn’t for Scar. She went through all that trouble to keep Scar away from the Green family, and she is not failing now.The only loophole, the one thing she has been wondering about ever since she saw Scar is—How did Scar get the invitation?!To prevent her biggest nightmare from happening, Anna didn’t even invite the Dawsons. That daughter of them is one of Scar’s best friends. Adding to the list Adrian Dunn, who took Scar’s side for no reason out of nowhere. They have been giving the Fullers hell on the business tables. They will have to take a big part in the fall of Z-house, whose profit would have been more than double that of the Fuller family business in these past years.But Scar still got i
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 282 She Who Can't Be Named
Every year’s Christmas, Anna Fuller would take Ava for a “family” visit, where Jack Fuller wouldn’t go. Something about how her family didn’t approve of her marrying down to him. And Scar would be left with Jack Fuller, in the name of keeping it even between parents and children.If that was the real reason, then Anna wouldn’t have taken Gabrial with her, too.Scar thought it was because Ava didn’t like her. But now she knows the real reason behind it—From how Anna and Ava are sucking up to the Green Lady, of course they wouldn’t want Scar to have any chance to even meet someone this powerful. As Anna’s daughter no less.What if the Green Lady grows to like Scar, right? Then there would be someone who actually treats Scar well in the “family”. God forbids.As much as Scar tries to tell herself that the Green Lady hates her because of years of lies fed to her by the Fullers, she finds it getting harder and harder to stay rational about this old lady when she shows little good judgment
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 281 Secret of The Christmas
That’s the phrase Scar could never understand: morbid curiosity.Looking around, Scar shakes her head slowly, despise in her eyes when she sees the disdain in the eyes of the rubbernecker. What are they waiting for? For her to cry in embarrassment that an old lady treated her meanly when she didn’t even know her? For her to feel ashamed when this person who called her “sister” just pointed out publicly how to humiliate her, and pretended to be kind with awkward acting?She is not the one who should feel ashamed here.“Thanks for your invite, Mrs. Green,” Scar bows lightly, her tone calm and polite.The Green Lady finally lands her eyes on Scar, as if seeing her for the first time. She observes Scar for a few long seconds, and the frown on her face deepens visibly. Scar is a bit amazed at this point. What could Ava possibly have said that could get the Green Lady to hate her even more just seeing her?!“Hmph,”That, and an almost lazy nod. That’s all the response the Green Lady gives h
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 280 Good Sis
Scar’s head goes empty for a second.What the hell did he just say?!For this whole time she thought Jack Fuller had something to do with her mom’s death. The least, he witnessed it and didn’t help, watched Emma die and took her home. Scar has been looking into that car accident with Silco’s resources for a long time now. Not to mention, that resource was a considerable one.Nothing.She couldn’t find any evidence putting Jack Fuller near that car accident, and she thought it was time to erase all the traces. Plus, Jack Fuller must have tried to cover his track, too.But if what Sebastian is telling her is real…“How did you know?! Do you have evidence?!! How long have you known about it and did you hide it from me just so--?!” Scar blows up into a string of questions like a machine gun.Ding, ding, ding!A piercing clink of glass bursts out, pulling Scar to a sudden halt when her intuition felt all the eyes turning toward her even before she could realize why.Then she sees why—The
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 279 Old Habits Die Hard
“I never noticed how cute you are when you are angry.”At that moment, Scar really wanted to smash the head of the ridiculous man and just storm off. But the whole lobby has quieted down, and all eyes are on the people in the center. If she dared to make a move, she would be catching all the attention. Is that why he is so bold right now?!“If you no longer care about that little snake of yours--” Scar clenches her teeth, but she doesn’t get to finish, because Sebastian gives her a confident smirk as he cuts her off leisurely--“You haven’t even heard my offer yet.”Scar turns to storm off, but Sebastian sees through her first, and grabs her waist faster than she could. Though she fails to make a scene, and only catches a few glances from just the little circle around them, she’s now in his arms, solid.“You--!”She almost shouted out. Almost.She never liked make-up, unlike now. She learned how to do make-up in her personal hell. It was commanded by her medical team. They suggested t
