She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 150 Nightmare Rollercoaster
Damian’s POVI try to keep the search for my sister a secret.Vanderbilt’s name attracts too many impostors as it is. Just because of the news about how they found my mom’s car under a cliff but without a trace of the baby, we have been dealing with all sorts of people coming to us over the years, claiming that they raised my sister who they found near the crash site. Some of them even came for the reward with a dead baby’s picture. Basically, they were selling their kids, dead ones, too.It’s fair to say that I have seen the darkest part of humanity.Most of them are easy to spot though -- we have never revealed the fact that Mom’s blood type is RH-, as well as the baby. Even unable to make a DNA test, a simple medical examination report from any period of their life could pick out most of the fake ones.But they still do damage--Every time such a claim reaches Dad, it takes his heart for a rollercoaster ride with an almost definite disappointing end.Dad loves Mom too much to even

Scarlett’s POVIn the end, I didn’t talk to Lilith that night.She doesn’t want us to know. It might hurt her pride more than helping her with her financial problem. I need to talk to Aurora first about it. Besides, Lilith never mentioned Damian Vanderbilt to us, so I’m not sure how to talk to her about that either. I don’t think Lilith would be with him if she knew he had other women, but I don’t have evidence either.But all these are just excuses.I fled the scene because I might be a Vanderbilt, an unwanted one no less.Lucas got a hotel for us, and I hid in my room for three days straight. My activities mainly involve searching about the Vanderbilts online and hiding under the cover every five minutes.I believe the cover has the power to block off all ghosts, so it should be able to protect me from other horrible things, too.There isn’t much about them online.Or, the ton of information about them online says little that I need. They appear on the news for museums under their n

Scarlett’s POVAfter that one bombing sentence, Adrian did not continue but started leading the way to his car.He has been shooting me observing looks all the way even after he started driving. I sneakily take longer breaths, waiting patiently for him to conduct his “mental status evaluation” on me. I don’t want him to worry about me, and I can handle this. I need him to know.“Lucas told me everything,” Adrian finally says, eying me in the rare mirror, “How have you been holding up? I’m actually impressed that you pulled yourself together after only three days.”I frown leeringly: “Please don’t tell me that the boss of the Dunn empire has been squatting downstairs of my hotel for the past three days...”Adrian lets out a laugh, the worry in his eyes faints a little.“I have eyes on your personal driver, that’s all,” Adrian gives me a harmless smile, “By the way, I’m not the only one doing that, apparently.”“Who else?!” I frown. I understand that Adrian is doing this out of concern

Scarlett's POVDare not to get into the past of my parents, I pushed everything to the back of my head when I got out of Adrian’s car and joined the shooting scene. It’s not wise to hang your mind on a decade-old divorce case when you are shooting a young adult romance.The main body of my story is the memory of the main characters, so we are shooting at a school for the first two months. Adrian’s alma mater was kind enough to allow the shooting of the campus, along with some classrooms and everything.I chose it because Sebastian -- the origin of my male lead in the story -- also went here, along with Ava and me. This is where our story happened. Adrian taunted me about this choice, thinking I was making my dream of a happy ending with Sebastian come true in my movie. A girl saved by a boy, ended up getting into a sweet relationship with him before entering a happy marriage.He was wrong.I’m not the origin of the female lead in the movie. Ava is.Sebastian might have saved me, but he

Scarlett’s POV“That’s your female lead, Aria,” James Deep suddenly turns over, apparently hearing Amilia’s comment on him and apparently, not planning on saying anything about that, “Amilia, you are up in five.”“Yes, sir!” Amilia makes a face at him and leaves, but not before she winks at me.I can’t close my shocked open mouth.For a moment there I really thought I met the young Ava -- the pretty, bright, perfect girl in school who is nice to you even if just met. But maybe because she plays Ava, I now can’t shake off the feeling that behind her smile there are also dark schemes running.But that’s not even the issue--“You--you...you chose her?!” I mumble at James Deep, more like talking to myself, “...why?”James Deep shoots me a cocky look: “Are you asking because she fits the image of your female lead?”I close my mouth. Yep, he totally saw through me and my script. I thought it was a clever twist -- everyone knows I’m Mrs. Knight, and everyone knows the story of the Fuller gir

Scarlett’s POVHe knows nothing!“I have never followed you anywhere,” I fold my arms, feeling safer. His suspicion is only about that night. No way he would ever suspect that I heard his dark plan, too.“You FAILED to,” He corrects me in an arrogant tone. Lucas's pride would definitely refute if he was here. But he isn’t.“Are you always this paranoid, or you don’t know the possible consequences of slander, Mr. Lawyer?” I grin at him, and he purses his lips into a smirk, not talking back.“Mr. Scott,” James Deep makes way and Oliver Scott follows us out, and so does Damian Vanderbilt. I follow them, and can’t help but throw peeks at him from the side.This man is my brother? Biological one? Like Gabriel to Ava? He is taller than Gabriel, but not as bulky. He wears thin glasses, but somehow I just feel like he is not any less a fighter than Gabriel. What would it be like if he was as protective of his sister as Gabriel of Ava?“Like what you see?” He suddenly turns around and catches

Scarlett’s POVIn his sorrowful gaze, I shake my head subconsciously. But I can’t utter the word “no”. It’s hard to lie, especially when the lie won’t trick anyone. Not me, nor him.With a bitter smile, he lets go of my waist slowly.He was the one who pushed me away. He wanted it so badly, and finally, when I did it, he was also the one giving me this sorrowful look, making me feel guilty as hell.“Action!” Just at the moment where I’m dying of awkwardness, James Deep shouts. I quickly turn to the scene, and Sebastian walks up to my side.Samuel and Aria -- Sebastian and Ava -- talk in the hallway just like how they used to in my memory. Except this time, she isn’t the one stealing such a moment from a dark, jealous sister, but the actual girl who was saved--Samuel walks in with his football pals in laughter and talks, his eyes bright and his smile clean. When he passes Aria, she lowers her head and dodges his eyes. He stops, staring at her with a curious look.“Do I know you?” Ari

She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 274 His Angel Died
“Word has it that his mistress and kid were open secrets in the family. Now that his son with his current wife died, they have no choice but to admit the bastard. He’s the only heir.”Heir of the Green family. That’s not an ordinary pie that falls off the sky every day.Scar can't help but frown, darting her judging eyes over to the man surrounded by a bunch of suits in the middle of the room.Elijah Green. Mistress and bastard.She already doesn’t like him.It’s not like she doesn’t know that there are dirty corners in this world, but cheating has never been part of her life, even raised by scums like the Fullers. The only positive thing Scar won’t deny about Jack Fuller is that he really loves Anna Fuller.That’s why Scar doesn’t like Johnny Vanderbilt. She hasn’t confirmed his affair with Anna Fuller to be one way or the other. But if he was decent enough, then there wouldn’t even be rumors about him and Anna Fuller because he wouldn’t have given people the room for that suspicion
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
