091 Up And Alive

Scarlett’s POVAva likes collecting men, I knew that. But to show her intention so obviously for her target to tell was not her style. She likes to play ambiguous. After all, she was “Sebastian’s girl”, that’s a title she would never let go of.“May 21st...” I mumble, that was the day when Ava was thrown out by Granny, “Was that before or after Granny threw her out? Do you remember?”“Ohhh... I went to her when the news of your wedding came out, so definitely after,” Adrian nods, rolling his eyes, “I guess that explains it. I was shocked how she would flirt with me when her whole heart was ‘Sebastian’s property’, so I went digging.”Adrian shoots me a guilty glance: “And I found out that the girl that Sebastian claimed to love was not Ava, but you.”“What?!” I open my eyes wide in shock, “How did you even find out?!”It wasn’t like there was any hard evidence to find.“It wasn’t really a finding,” Adrian waves his hand indifferently, “Remember that time when Olivia hid your history bo

092 A True Angel

Scarlett’s POV“Why? I can’t revenge a FRIEND against a bunch of heartless bloodsuckers?!” Adrian rolls his eyes like a capricious child, “The happiness of my love life is in your hand! I’m at your command, my master!”I laugh at his Assassin's Creed tone, and he smiles with me. It’s amazing to spend time with Adrian. He just has a bright energy to get laughs out of me, making me feel like no dark cloud in life matters, like light magic.“Actually, I do want to--”“Glad to see you up and alive so soon after the kidnapping,” A knock on the door raises right before the owner of the voice opens my door.My jaw is on the ground: “Granny?!”Of all the people, I didn’t expect to see HER here. How did she even know I was here? And most importantly, did the doctors tell her anything about the pregnancy?!I grab Adrian’s arm in panic, and instantly he understands my fear.“I’ll leave you two to some girls' talk then,” Adrian grabs his suit before bowing at Granny jokingly with my test results

093 I Was Her Whole World

I thought I had come to accept that she would be my wife.But none of that could explain how I just wanted to dive off with her when her chair fell over the edge.When I caught Ava’s chair, I was joyful.

094 Scarlett Knight

Sebastian’s POV“Mr. Fuller?” The doctor comes in with a stack of files, and I stand up.“Uhh, no...The name is Knight, Sebastian Knight,” I frown, reaching out for Scar’s test result that the doctor went to get for me, “Scar...Scarlett Fuller is my wife.”She doesn’t even use my name anymore? I know she changed it on the official papers but...I never called her Mrs. Knight, like how she wanted.With a frown, the doctor looks at me suspiciously from above his glasses, hesitating.“I can prove it, I have got my my marriage certificate at home,” Which I don’t know where it is, I rub my hair in frustration. I don’t like being reminded how I lost her in every little detail, “I just want to know if she’s okay, that’s all.”“She...” The doctor’s frowning gets deeper.“You are not her husband anymore!” Just when the doctor opens his mouth, Adrian strides in with a cold tone, “Doctor, Miss Fuller doesn’t want her information to be shared, especially with her EX-husband.”The word “EX” stings

095 When Did I lose you?

Sebastian’s POV“Scar, ” I take her arm gently and she instantly swings me off, “I--”She glares at me, waiting impatiently.Seeing her cold eyes hurts. Pain grabs my chest, but I’m hopeless and powerless in front of such pain. There is nothing I can do. I can barely recognize the girl who once had the brightest smile toward me.She knows I left Ava in the hospital to come here, and before when I did that for her, her whole face would light up, and her beautiful eyes would curve into crescents as she hung herself on my arms, smiling sneakily like a little fox.But now she doesn’t even look at me.“I...” I open my mouth, but all the words that I wanted to tell her, suddenly disappear, “I...” I can’t find anything to say.Scar rolls her eyes, and turns to leave.“I’ll give you what you want!” I blurt, knowing it’s the only thing I can say to stop her from leaving, “I will sign the divorce papers...if that's what you REALLY want.”Scar stops, turns around, looks at me before her eyes dar

096 Deadly Trap

Scarlett’s POVBumping into Sebastian was a surprise. I couldn’t imagine anything would be able to pull him away from Ava, especially when she is really hurt this time. He looked like he had something to say, but in the end, he seemed to have changed his mind to a meaningless question.I don’t know how to answer, and frankly speaking, I don’t think he was waiting for a legit answer.When did he lose me? The past months where he made Ava’s hospital his one and only home? The true love’s kiss he shared with his beloved princess? All the neglection over the years, the mocking and cold snorts? Or our wedding night he spent with Ava?Or maybe, he already lost me the second day he saved me, when he took the princess as the little dragon he saved.I guess I knew the marriage was dead way before this. It died in one of those long, lonely nights when I sat in our bed, imagining my husband being on another woman’s bed. I just thought maybe I could hang on for just a little bit, and he would com

097 His City

Scarlett’s POV“North Dakota?” Adrian shoots over a surprised look, asking as we head to the parking lot, “That’s far from here. How did know your real parents are there?”The doctor was Adrian’s acquaintance, and at his promise, we left the doctor’s office feeling safe about my secret. I feel bad about hiding this from Sebastian, but before I’m sure I can protect my baby from them, I can’t risk letting any of my “family” know about the baby.Adrain is the third of the only three people that I can trust my secret with.I briefly explained to him about my situation and how Jack Fuller always managed to find me in my earlier attempts to run away from “home”.It started with the time when Sebastian found me in the woods. I just made my first “friend” at that time, and he promised he could help me run away if “you hate your home that much”. He led me into the woods and after a few turns he left me there alone. I didn’t know how to get out, and I didn’t know how to get back home either.La

098 Room To Breath

Scarlett’s POVIs there a kinder soul in this world? I look at Adrian, envying Aurora secretly because she is being loved by such a good person.But I can’t. “I want to be your friend, Adrian Dunn,” I shake my head, feeling pity in my chest, “So I can’t be such a burden to you. You understand, don’t you?”Adrian looks at me plaintively. He understands, I know. Talking to him has been so easy.“You are insulting me by implying that it takes a lot of me to protect just one girl,” Adrian says half-jokingly, “I can’t protect you well if you leave, especially to a place that far away. But here I can promise that they can’t get another drop of blood of yours if you don’t want them to.”That’s really sweet and generous, but I can’t put such a weight on Adrian. I feel guilty enough taking so much of his help as it is. Out of a misunderstanding no less. It’s not right.“I can take care of myself now,” I say as Adrian holds out his arm to block the elevator door for me. He definitely did that o

099 Personal Hell

Scarlett’s POVAdrian remained silent as we settled into the car and drove out of the parking lot.I wonder if I had told him too much.I guess when someone has their partiality for you, then it becomes irresistible to pour out all the grief to them. I start to understand Ava better.But he is not mine. He is Aurora’s, and I’m on my way to finding my real family who I can cry to without a burden.I never wanted to admit this, but I envy Ava, a lot. I envy how she could be loved by so many, and be so capricious without a worry, when even trying my best, I couldn’t get a caring look from the same family and friends she has.Would my parents love me just as much as the Fullers love her?If I was born with such an awful disease but by the side of my real parents, would they also go all the way to buy a slave home just to make sure I would be safe? I don’t want them to be this evil, but I want everything else the Fullers gave Ava.I want a family that would care whether I was happy or sad,

100 Ava's M.O.

Scarlett’s POV“I will make him pay!”Jack Fuller’s roar came out as my welcome right when I left the elevator. I didn’t even need to ask for directions for Ward 713.“He is already arrested, Daddy!” Ava giggles as the angel she is, “I totally called it when that girl jumped off that building! I guess apples don't fall far from the tree.”A moment of silence.“Anna, the reports should be out by now,” Jack Fuller suddenly says out of nowhere, and in panic, I slid into the room next to it. I wasn’t exactly eavesdropping, but now I’m guilty as hell.She passes my door soon after, and I close the door and put my ears against the wall shared with ward 713. Jack Fuller sent her out on purpose. What could he have to talk to Ava about that his own wife couldn’t hear?“Clean your social media about that girl,” Jack Fuller keeps his voice so low that I can barely hear him through the wall. At his strange command, I pull out my phone and search for Ava’s Faceb00k. Keeping my ear up, I start scro
