She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 113 Plan For Revenge
Scarlett’s POVAdrian didn’t leave. Instead, he guarded in front of the restroom and called Aurora.When I unhooked my door and pushed it open a slit, Aurora quickly found me. She came and buried my tear-ruined face in her chest, and hugged me tight until they could get me out of that restroom.They took me to the hospital for another check-up, and got me back to Aurora’s place after they made sure me and the baby were both okay.I have been numb the whole process, letting them operate me like a lifeless doll.It had been only a few days since the last time I was in her messy living room, and I felt like several lives had passed since that night. Lilith was waiting for us, and I burst into tears when they put me on the sofa, and wrapped me in a furry blanket with a mug of hot cocoa stuffed in my hands.I felt at home. I finally felt safe.I don’t know how long I had cried, but when I finally calmed down, I found them both still sitting by my side, their eyes red, too. Have they been c

Scarlett’s POVWell, I don’t have one.I talked big, but I didn’t really have a “revenge plan” in my mind. Doing people harm is a huge project, and just thinking about it exhausts me.“Whatever you want to do, we are here for you,” Aurora says this, only to dart a weird glance at Adrian --She could only speak for herself and Lilith on that one, but it’s also awkward to specially exclude him from it.“Yeah!” Adrian pretends he doesn’t understand Aurora’s awkward glance, nodding firmly with a genuine tone, “We are ALL here for you.”Aurora darts her eyes away, pressing her lips downward as they try to curve up as if having their own minds.“You are staying with me though, right?” Aurora averts the topic she started, again, “I’m trying to get Lilith to come and live here, too. Her law firm is twenty minutes walk from her, and we can have pillow fights----”Just within a minute, Aurora glances at Adrian in pure awkwardness twice with a look like she wants to bite off her own tongue. She

Scarlett’s POVWhat does that mean?I stare at Adrian as a million possibilities run around my head. How did he know? Did he know something? Is he talking about the junkie thing, or my dad, or both... I dare not go for the one direction that I’m afraid to go--Could it mean...that my mom can still be alive?“It can wait,” Aurora rubs my shoulder as I apparently freeze.“I’m okay,” I mumble, but I AM a bit out of it. I don’t feel like bursting out in tears when I hear about it again, but I don’t know if I could take it to have my hopes up only to be crushed again.Adrian sighs, giving me a resigned look: “This would be how you feel ALL THE TIME, if you look into this yourself. Every piece of new information, confirmed or not, will be an emotional rollercoaster. And quite frankly, I don’t think you can handle it--”“Adrian Dunn!” Aurora bursts out in anger, “How could you--?!”“Aurora,” I follow her up to stop her, “It’s okay. I’m okay, and he is actually right. If I can’t take such a n

Scarlett’s POVI took my suitcase when I came to the Fuller’s Villa this time. Performing my debut in front of the queen of acting, I need the right armor.I stayed at Aurora’s for a couple of days to recover -- Welllll, for fun, okay?! I’m back on the movie now that I’m staying in the city. The shootings start in two weeks, so I enjoyed my limited freedom alone in the apartment, doing final edits of the script, and relaxing.We managed to persuade Lilith. She is sharing the apartment with Aurora now, and they are both workaholics. They deserve each other.On Lilith’s second day of work -- the day when they’d both started to get up really early and come back super late, I dragged my little suitcase to my own battlefield.This time, I came FOR blood.Henry the doorman let me in with a smile, suspecting nothing. This is the silver lining of having hypocrites as enemies -- they keep the fights inside, and it can be convenient for both parties.Ava is the first one to spot me.Well, I sto

Scarlett’s POV“What’s this farce?” Jack Fuller grunts sullenly, his eagle eyes nailing on the cameraman sullenly, “This is the Fuller’s Villa, and he--”“...and he is MY cameraman. Dunn Entertainment assigned him to me, you know? For my first movie,” I smile at him, and successfully light up fire in his eyes with that, “Aren’t you proud of me?”Aurora was right. Acting with real emotions makes acting so much easier. I AM happy to see Jack Fuller irritated, which makes me smile wider, and hence, him angrier.Perfect!Anna Fuller shoots a worried look at her husband, and pausing for a second, Jack Fuller turns on his fox mode--“Of course I am,” He opens his arms as he walks over, “I’m proud that you rejected my help only because you wanted to prove yourself. That’s my girl.”Watching him walk closer, I’m so grossed out that goosebumps stand. I can’t stand a hug from him. I’d throw up.I think Jack Fuller knows that, and that’s exactly why he is doing this.He is so many levels above A

Scarlett’s POVIf there is one thing that Ava didn’t lie about, it’s her desire for Sebastian. And I’m betting on that.Ava pouts with big drops of tears pouring out of her. She looks at her parents beggingly, but she is not saying anything. She can’t deny my lie, because I can make it true.“Scar...” Anna Fuller changes into a softer tone, saying hesitantly, “You know Ava has been living in that room for years, I don’t know if--”“I mean,” I take my suitcase from Ava’s hand, lowering my eyes so I wouldn’t burst into laughter at my “sorrowful” tone, “I can leave, if that’s what you want.”“To where?!” Ava snaps with a shrill.“Ava Fuller!” Jack Fuller warns, and both Anny and Ava purses their lips, “If Ava cares so much about you, then I have no problem with it.” Said that, Jack Fuller turns and leaves the farce.Anna Fuller lands her sad but merciful look on me. The look that tells me to take a step back in fights with Ava. The look that I have been submitting to my whole life.“Ava,

Sebastian’s POVScar has been hiding in Aurora’s place, I know. I wanted to give her some time and space first, though I doubt if all the time and space in the world could get her to listen to anything I have to say.Adrian has been throwing nasty comments at me recently, and I thought that was out of his feelings toward Scar at first, and I ignored him. But the moment Scar appeared at the Fullers, Adrian’s spammers almost flushed my app. That’s when I knew--They are up to something, and Scar wanted my attention elsewhere.I waited at my office, and surely enough -- not after a full hour Ava barged into my office, tears and all, saying Scar wanted her out of the family.I have learned my lesson by taking things at only her words.She has been accusing Scar of this and that all these years, and I believed her; she said she only mentioned giving Liam money in exchange for her own life, I did not have any evidence besides her and Liam Ryan’s story.But what happened the other day at the
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 120 Second Chance
Sebastian’s POVThe shock in her eyes only tells me how much I have been ignoring her, how much I have taken her for granted, and how much she has been suffering for so long, that such a simple idea is surprising to her.She glares at me, but her foggy eyes make her glare less fierce, more pitiful like a wronged kitten. Her fragile look tickles me, along with her steaming red cheeks.I don’t want to see pain in her eyes, never again. I just want to wipe them off her eyes, in any way I can.I tilt my head, reaching for a kiss.“If you dare--” Scar hisses at me angrily, her claw reaching for my face. I catch her tender wrist easily, whispering in her ear: “She’s watching, no?”Scar hesitates, her watery deer eyes dart to the door, and I take my chance and land my lips gently on her swan neck, finally.A stolen kiss, yet the sweetest ever.I linger on her taste like a butterfly grabs on a flower. It’s stealing from the flower, but it is what the butterfly depends its life on.“Enough is
