All Chapters of She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked: Chapter 231 - Chapter 240

“The gentleman on the second floor”.Sebastian’s plate doesn’t even have a number, but just one letter – Z.It’s unlikely that he could see and spot Ava from that huge window on the second floor, but Ava feels like Sebastian glanced at her coldly when he raised his plate just now.Wronged tears fill Ava’s eyes.She should have been up there. She was supposed to be the queen of the Knights, and she got her title fair and square. But now that man put all his sweet words and promises behind his head, and looks at her with only coldness.[Sebastian, No.86 is me,] Ava types in her phone, but hesitates when her finger hovers over “send”.One word after another, Ava deletes the message, and sends [Sebastian, I’m at an auction today] instead.No reply.Holding the phone, Ava looks up at Sebastian. The man sits there with a straight face, his eye never even dart to the table where his phone blinks.Biting her lips, Ava holds her phone to her ear after dialing Sebastian's number. Anger rushing

Sure there are much more expensive rings, but not this one.Sure, it’s the heart of the almighty Sebastian Knight, but he was only a teenager himself when he designed the ring. He had limited resources – well, limited as a Knight. Still. The designer is a family friend, and the stone, while rare, is only worth his pocket money at that time. The most valuable about the ring, is the emotion he stores in it.Scar is upset at Sebastian’s tactful strategy – to follow her price only with 10,000$ at a time, and then suddenly doubles it. Anyone, even Silco himself if he was here today, would hesitate at least for a second.Giving Sebastian a death stare, Scar doesn’t raise her plate. Fine! He wants his damn ring so much? He can have it! It’s not like she’s here for that stupid ring anyway.Sebastian is looking in her direction. Gloating? Scar is determined not to look over, but then he opens his mic and clears his throat as if he wants to talk. Uncontrollably, Scar looks over, only to see his

“The first thing you need to learn, princess, is that you are always paying for what you buy, not what they are selling.” Silco holds out a hand, leading Scar to the chair in front of the window, sitting her down like the queen he wants her to be as he nods at the stage, “Is a stone embedded on a piece of metal worth 3 million?”Scar looks up at him, blinking in confusion: “...no?”Silco smiles, not denying nor approving: “To a family who struggles to stay above water, definitely not. They wouldn’t even blink before they choose the money over that little ring, but, for people with emotional attachment to the ring with money to spare, say...Ava Fuller?”“Then she’s paying for the ring from her love one, instead of a stone on a piece of metal,” Scar nods, understanding Silco’s logic as she follows his lead.Silco gives her an encouraging smile and a gentle pat on her head: “That’s my girl.”It’s really stupid, but his praise spreads a warm wave through her. It’s how she felt -- wanted t

Scar was a bit surprised that that man came today. He ever bothered to come to the Fullers to claim the necklace when he could have gotten it back. He acted as if the headlines about Scar five years ago never even existed. So Scar wouldn’t expect him to protect the necklace even if he could.Maybe he wanted that necklace to fall into the pocket of Anna Fuller, through legal methods. Maybe that’s what this day is about -- him giving his mistress a luxuriously expensive gift.Scar couldn’t exclude that possibility.So what happens then?If Johnny Vanderbilt were to help the Fullers raise the price, Scar would be either paying a sky-high bill to the Fullers just to get what was hers in the first place, or watching Anna Fuller get both the necklace AND a huge allowance from her loyal lover.She wants neither!Now Scar understood Silco’s budget: two billion, exactly the liquidity Sebastian has. But Silco didn’t consider Johnny Vanderbilt!He has no grudge against the Vanderbilts. Sure, he

Sebastian left his room soon after, and the host moved on to the items following. Everything seems to be falling back on track, but everything feels wrong now.One luxurious item after another gets on the stage, yet not getting the attention they deserve. The fight over Frozen Night is too dramatic, and the audience can’t help looking at the items as more boring than they actually are.Ava is back. An invisible wall between her and Jack Fuller as they fall back into their seats.Scar is not even in the mood to enjoy that.Sebastian was the one falling for a liar. Sebastian was the one who gave that liar access to their house. Sebastian was the one willingly giving up his everything for a ring that he gave up in the first place.But for some reason, Scar feels horrible.She couldn’t even pin it down, but she just can’t enjoy her win. Something tells her – well, shouting inside her soul that he doesn’t deserve this. She tries to argue with that voice, but she couldn’t find all the rage
