She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 055 The Perfect Crime
Scarlett’s POVI would have given everything for such a speech from him, five years ago.Hell. I did give everything, when I asked for exactly what he is offering me today. If only he had been less cruel to me anywhere in the past five years; if only he believed Granny and did not let his emotion cloud his judgment. But life has no “if only”. I’m not there anymore. I’m not excited, or happy. I’m just tired.I just want to live my own life without them keep on hurting me.I can’t go back, not for Granny’s wish, not for my coming baby, not for a Sebastian who still doesn’t see me.He still doesn’t know that it was me who he saved in the woods, not Ava.I only found out about this misunderstanding five years ago. When Ava came bragging to me with a recording of Sebastian saying the three scared words to her, promising that he would have no one but her as his wife in this lifetime.In the video, Sebastian looked into Ava’s eyes, and said that all he wanted to do was to protect the little g

Scarlett’s POVI turn to Adrian Dunn, and instantly Sebastian hastes: “Don’t go with him, please!”“I’m sorry I forced your hand five years ago,” Magically, I find myself able to talk to him with peace now, “But we both know you couldn’t have married Ava back then even if I didn’t. So, call it even? Now that Ava is cured, and Granny has given her the approval, too. You can go ahead and do what you want this time. Just...”I feel bad not telling him the truth, but I don’t want him to know about the mistake now. It would only drag on the tie between us that I no longer want, and it would ruin my only good memory of him.“Just, make sure this time it’s what you want...please.”I suddenly understood what Granny meant when she said she could only save him once. I could only save him once. He tries to marry Ava this time, I won’t be there to “speak up”.If Sebastian was going to say anything at all, he wouldn’t now, not with Adrian Dunn’s presence. He raises the folder slowly, reluctance wri

Scarlett's POV“You and Sebastian! You are not exactly ‘nemesis’, are you?!” I should have known from the way he talked to Granny. Even if he didn’t like Sebastian, there was no way he would really hurt the Knight’s empire.Adrian Dunn shoots me a weird look, amused.But that only adds to the puzzle.“Then why did you help me...?” If his goal wasn’t Sebastian’s gossip?“Do you mean why I accepted your movie proposal, or why am I driving you home?” Adrian cocks an eyebrow, pleasure visible on his face.“The former,” I blurt, “actually, make it both!”He burst into laughter.“Welllll,” He drawls tauntingly, his smirking eyes kept on the road, “I’m driving you home to deliver a promise I made to two ladies. I hate to disappoint beautiful ladies. And as the former...”His tone makes me nervous for no good reason. I didn’t notice I was holding my breath until he glanced at me and laughed--“I already told you.”“You said you weren’t doing it just for the gossip...” I hesitate, that’s not ex

Scarlett's POVI do not see the “devil” Aurora paints Adrian Dunn as, at all.It was actually a huge pleasure talking to him. When I first reached out to Adrian, all I knew about him was his “throne” of being Sebastian’s nemesis, AND the million complaints on how “mean and petty” he was from Aurora.Apparently she was in a play and he made fun of her make-up. He messed up her hair, and she fell when she tried to get back at him. Of course that made him laugh at her even more, and then he became Aurora’s enemy, and made it on every one of her blacklists.I guess he grew out of the mean boy he was, opposite to Sebastian.But the better he is to me, the more guilty I feel toward Aurora. I came to him because of our common enemy, but he wasn’t.“You and Sebastian were best friends?!” I exclaim, my jaw on the ground. I never knew! Me! The biggest fan of Sebastian throughout these years, and yet I didn’t know! How?!“We had a fall out...some years ago,” Adrian takes a shrug, looking indiffer

Sebastian’s POV“What do you mean she didn’t make it home?”I barely made it to my office when I got a call from Jack, asking if Ava spent the night with me. Like, why would she? She has never spent the night at any place besides home, including mine. She was that fragile a doll.“You picked her up, so why didn’t you take her back home?!” Jack instantly explodes, shouting at the top of his lungs, “How could you be so irresponsible?! Don’t you know how dangerous it is for her out there?!”I want to tell him that Ava is her own person and a grown-up now, but this is not the right time.“I’m on this,” I tell him instead, “I’ll get back to you.”I put Alfred on the phone next, but he told me he put Ava down at the Fuller’s Villa, and he literally watched Ava go in. So either Jack Fuller lied about her returning home, or she came out on her own after Alfred left, for some reason.Jack Fuller would never joke about Ava’s safety.I tried Ava’s phone, and of course, nothing came up. If she’s

Sebastian’s POV“What-what do you mean?” I frown, my heart speeding up before my brain can process the information, “Scar is missing, too?”“Who else is missing?” Aurora reacts fast, “Adrian Dunn is not answering his phone, and he took Scar yesterday--”“I know!”It took me all my manner to not burst into curses. What the fuck did Adiran do this time?! I wouldn’t be surprised if he took Scar back to his place, against her will even! That guy is fucking crazy! The moment I gave Scar the divorce papers and he already made his move?!I didn’t even fucking sign those damn papers!Five years ago he got into a fight with me right before my wedding day, going crazy about something like I shouldn’t go into marriage with a girl I didn’t love. I thought it was about me, but never did I expect that huge fallout was because of his feelings for Scar.I never even knew they knew each other that well.I hang up the phone and dash out, passing Miller on my way out. He drives too slowly. I think Mille

Sebastian’s POVAdrian kept his gabbling on all the way to the elevator, leaving me drowning in the sour happiness of realizing how hard it is to accept Scar being with someone else, and how pathetic that is.“God damn it, Sebastian?!” Adrain snaps when he enters the elevator only to see me still outside, “Get it together! Are you fucking kidding me?! I sent Scar home and I watched her enter Aurora’s building! Are you sure she’s not with some friend?”“Aurora said she never came home last night,” I finally snap out of it. My head was unbelievably light at the enlightenment that Scar hadn’t spent her night with Adrian, but then it hit me, “You watched her go into the building?”Sounds awful like Ava’s case.“Ave hasn’t made it home either from yesterday’s party. I got Jeremy Rogers on the case,” I tell Adrain as I pull my phone to call Miller, only to see five missed calls from him, “Give me one minute--”“I doubt Jeremy would care,” Adrian lets out a cold snort, shaking his head with

Sebastian’s POVAdrian smirks with a delighted tone at his phone.Did I miss anything here? I would understand if Jeremy Rogers did things by the book if he didn’t agree to help Adrian so quickly without even hesitation.It was a great chance for me to own him, and my help was worth something. It didn’t feel like he helped Adrian out of friendship, but that he chose to not help me out of some personal vendetta.But I don’t even know him personally!I’m pretty sure Adrian was going to hang up, but when he took a glance at me, he sighs lightly and adds to his phone, “Ohh, it came to my attention that the other Fuller girl is not answering her phone, either. Not sure if it’s related to Scar’s missing in any way but, this piece of information might help. Your judgment.”He ends the phone call, and I feel like I’m about to burst at humiliation and confused anger.“What?!” I snap at Adrian, can’t help my mean tone.“Well,” Adrian shrugs with an annoying smirk, “You are welcome.”I want to ar

She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 273 The Bastard
“Sebastian, please. You know today is important to mom,” In the end, Ava softens her voice, putting on her innocent victim act. After all, that’s the role she has been practicing her full life, “Mom sees Mrs. Green as her own granny, and they haven’t seen each other in decades. I just want to make sure that the night will go smoothly, that’s all.”Sebastian cocks his eyebrows, genuinely shocked. A bit apprehensive, he dares not to look at Scar, only to realize Scar might not even know--Scar has no clue that her mom has anything to do with THE Green family in the country. Not to mention the fact that Anna Fuller knew Emma way before their marriage drama with Johnny Vanderbilt. Green is too common a name, and Scar only picked it because the only one who ever showed her love was the mom who died for her.“I don’t think being rude to Mrs. Green’s invited guest would do that,” Sebastian grabs Scar’s wrist, showing the invitation held in her hand to Ava as if it’s just an innocent move. Sc

For the preparation of the script, Sebastian offered Scar an office at his company – a special perk that none of his movies had shared before. After all, there is no such need for his directors OR his writers to have an office at the headquarters.Of course, it’s just his way of trying to get close to Scar.And of course, Scar didn’t take up on his offer.She wanted Sebastian’s company to deliver her movie because Ava would hate that. Nothing else. Rejected, Sebastian allowed the month Scar wanted for the script, and told her there would be a shooting team ready for her.The next time Scar met Sebastian, it had already been a week after the incident with Ava, who didn’t make any move during. For a moment there, Sebastian expected a divorce paper from Ava, but she didn’t do it.The condition for Ava to donate blood for Scar was that Sebastian would marry Ava, give her Z-house, and… he can’t divorce her.Unlike Scar, Sebastian was sentenced to life that night.“What is SHE doing here?”
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 271 Old Memory
“What are you doing here?!”An angry shout bursts out when Scar is just finishing putting her signature down on the contract.Ava barges into the office.Sebastian wasted no time to fulfill his promise as if worried that she would back out of the deal she brought to him. Worried about Ava? Even after all the shitty things Ava pulled, he still takes care of her. Protecting Ava is a habit carved deep into his bones.His secretary drafted the movie contract with shocking speed. Scar would have had her lawyer go through it, but she didn’t. Even if there were loopholes in the contract, she wouldn’t care.Her target was never the profit. It was Ava.Watching Ava storming in, Scar just sits there with a taunting smile. This is such a familiar scene that Scar almost can’t stop herself from laughing -- there was a time when she was the angry wife storming into his office when he was spending time with Ava.“Fancy seeing you here, Mrs. Knight,” Scar taunts with her head tilted. Ava pauses a sec

“How long have you been standing there?!”Sebastian didn’t realize he had been standing there staring until Scar suddenly looked up only to gasp startled.“Sorry! I knocked but you didn’t hear me,” Sebastian blurt, raising both his hands, “I didn’t want to disturb.”His polite and gentle tone raises guilt in Scar. She was the one who came unannounced, and still he agreed to talk. She is in HIS meeting room and she just shouted at him when she was the one being rude.“Sorry…” She mumbles, frowning at herself. She just realized that she still owe the man a “thank you”, and instead of that, she seemed to have bullied him again. She spent her whole teenage years trying to get his attention and she failed, but now when she wants to cut him out of her life, it only seems to tangle their lives even closer.“You wanted to see me?” The man smiles at her, pulling out the chair at the end of the long table, next to her but not too close as the one beside her would be.Scar likes the distance. He
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 269 Never Asked Question
Sebastian never got that phone call.Mainly because Scar didn’t go through it. Call it cold feet, but she wasn’t even sure how to talk to him about it -- about her revenge plan.Never before had she felt so lonely, not even in those five years.In those five years, she knew she was shutting herself down. She couldn’t let herself crawl out of the grief of her baby, but she knew she had friends, and maybe families if she wanted.Not like now.She was so determined to die with Ava. To ruin her life like how Ava ruined hers, before ending it with their death. That was so simple and efficient a plan, and she was okay with that.But she can’t find the courage to embrace death in her anymore, not after the incident with Sebastian.She didn’t know if he saved her out of love or guilt, but he did save her. She had a glimpse of death, and he sheltered that dark shadow with his own body, and that shone a new light on her life. She is still living in the big house Silco got her, having all the fa

“Why is Scar mama starting at the sky all the time?”Alice’s voice pulls back Scar’s wondering mind. She blinks, only to realize that she has again lost her train of thought sitting on the bay window in her bedroom. She has been like this for a week after the incident with Sebastian.She feels like a part of her is left behind at the dim abandoned factory, but she can’t pin down what.From the corner of her eye, she spots Alice sticking her head into her bedroom but only barely as if trying to hide, but her chubby hands grabbing the frame of the door already exposed her long before.How cute. Scar thinks.Pretending that she didn’t spot Alice, Scar sighs, drawling her tone as if talking to herself: “What a dull view. If only my cute little Alice is right here right now...”“But I am!” Alice couldn’t wait but jumped out from where she was hiding, raising her arms high up with a smile brighter than the sun, “Scar mama, I’m here to visit you!”Scar bursts into laughter as she picks Alice
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 267 Rule Of The Game
That’s the only plausible option.He has no idea who Silco is, and he takes this blind shot only because: he doesn't feel any hostility from Silco against Scar. Silco IS pulling off some dirty shit, but it wasn’t to hurt HER. He was the only target in this show.Silco sent the men to abduct her, but the crash managed to hit the front left corner of Scar’s car when she was in the right back seat, where she would take the least damage. They imprisoned her but didn’t even pull a knife on her, not until he barged in. They chased after them with bats and others, but Scar came out with not even a scratch.They could have easily cracked his skull when he tried to guard the door with his own body.Even if it was all a show, it was carried out with great care. His motive is not hatred toward Jack Fuller, but care for Scar. After this long, the man has dodged only one of his questions: why he is helping Scar.Why indeed. There is no other possibility.To his surprise, Sebastian’s question makes
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 265 Silco's Command
“And puts him away for two or three years with half of that time paid off with YOUR money?” Silco lets out a cold snort, “Did you get to where you are all by your grandma’s wealth and that empty head of yours?”Sebastian’s ears turn red.“The only reason I would not press charges is if they would provide information on Jack Fuller, and Jack Fuller knows that,” Silco explains impatiently as if facing a silly student, “even if they deny that, Fuller won’t believe it. He is that kind of man.”“You know him personally?!” Sebastian catches that quickly.Silco lets out a cold smirk, but this time with satisfaction in his eyes.“Jack Fuller has some links to the mafia,” Silco continues, ignoring Sebastian’s question, “and I want to dig up his roots this time. Get it, smart kid?”“I’ll play along if you let me in your treatment plan for Scar,” Sebastian negotiates.“Now you care about her? Did you care when you left her for that mistress of yours on her wedding day? Did you care when you enjo
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 264 The Conundrum
Sebastian doesn’t want to.“I know about her episodes,” He pushes these words out of his clenched teeth. He got in touch with Scar’s medical team back when she was in the facility, but all he knew was, Scar couldn’t handle any strong emotion waves for now.“I know you do,” Silco laughs carelessly, “I was the one who told them to let you in. How else do you think you could get to MY people?”Sebastian frowns because he doesn’t want to look too surprised. The truth is, he IS surprised. He couldn’t get much more information no matter how much he offered, and before today, he thought the medical team was only being loyal to their vows of being doctors.Only now does he realize -- this man has been in control of everything. Reluctantly, Sebastian has to admit his defeat: “Please, tell me what she needs.”Silco lets out a cold snort, making it clear that he is not pleased: “You know what DPD is?”Sebastian nods. He has expected that to be her diagnosis, and he has been looking into it.“And
