Sebastian’s POV

I mean, I can’t be sure that I have never seen him in my life, and that can be the smidgen of familiarity I feel looking at his photo. And my heart drops--

It’s much harder if it’s a random guy instead of the owner who did this.

“Fuck!” I rub my head, throwing the photos on the sofa hard. The splash does not ease my nerves.

“It’s okay,” Jim is leaving, but he stops and pats my shoulder instead, “We are not tracing the owner, but the car. Don’t be too hard on yourself.”

“So what’s your deal with Adrian?” I ask Jim, knowing he is trying to comfort me. He knows Adrian, too. Actually, I knew Jim through Adrian. Jim is two years our senior in college.

“We let him know, if the kidnapper ever calls you.” Jim shrugs.

He doesn’t think the kidnapper would. After all, it has been more than a day. If it's ransom a kidnapper is after, they would contact immediately. So why haven’t they??

Anything could have happened in 24 hours. What if it wasn’t abduction? What if it was human tra

Sebastian is a total dumb ass. How can he go this long, not realizing Scar is the one he saved in the woods. over the years, he should also realize Ava is a huge manipulator. I really did love this book, but I am getting bored with Sebastian.

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   324 Her Knight

    Scar didn’t charge out. She couldn’t even if she wanted to. Sebastian locked the door when he left. A shout from her would help more than trying to get out in time. On second thought, she should have just shouted. But she didn’t.Because Sebastian beat her to it--“You won’t use it here, and you know it, too,” He said to Johnny Vanderbilt. She could even hear the smirk in his voice. Magically, she just calmed down the moment she heard him.That’s his negotiation table voice, the voice that has never lost even once ever. The voice that shows absolute control. She doesn’t want to, but she is nonetheless assured by his voice.“Next time when you try to call bluff, don’t be so hasty,” Johnny Vanderbilt snorts coldly, “it just shows what a coward you are.”No. Sebastian didn’t say that fast out of hast

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   323 Bolt Of A Gun

    Meters away, Scar holds her breath subconsciously, worried the two men outside the door might hear her. They can’t. She is just too nervous with a million questions blowing up in her mind.Silco is…Johnny Vanderbilt?There was a moment where she actually did suspect this possibility, but Silco was on the auction when Vanderbilt also showed up…Wait. They both showed up, but never at the same time.Could it be?“What’s that?” It’s Johnny Vanderbilt’s polite but cold voice, with a hint of perfect confusion.At this moment, Scar wants so badly to sneak over and peek at Johnny Vanderbilt. If he is really the man she has been living with, she would know. But even if there is a peephole on the door, she wouldn’t dare for fear of tipping them off.She stands there and listens, quietly.“You want to start with playing dumb? Sure,” Sebastian’s voice sounds hoarse, as if he just ran a ten-kilo. “May I ask why you just knocked out three of the Green’s guests then?”“Personal vendetta,” Johnny Va

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   322 Mr. Vanderbilt

    Ava came.Lying on the bed, Scar could hear the high heels in the hallway. Reluctantly, she recognized the nightmare of her childhood – Ava’s steps.Ava didn’t come in. She talked to Sebastian, who apparently was guarding the door.“You really got her to drink it?!” Ava cheered like an excited bird, “She’s in there?”“Where else?” Sebastian answers impatiently, “Where is my payment?”Scar would have torn him into pieces even with just her teeth if she could. She couldn’t. She couldn’t even break free from his damn tie, let alone getting her unlikely revenge. All she could do was shout, but that never worked for her before.Scar eyed the window.Not too far away, and not too high above the ground.“I changed my mind,” Ava said in her iconic sweet voice, “I would give up the heir of the Green family, Sebastian, for you.”Ava stressed his name, unnecessarily loud.“She is out cold, so no one can hear you,” Sebastian snorted at Ava coldly, pointing out her little trick.Scar is really not

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   321 No Other Choice

    In the end, the wine cups were emptied, and Scar didn’t get to taste a drop.“I need to go,” Sebastian says, huge drops of sweat rolling off his forehead and disappearing into his collar, “lock the door and wait inside. Nothing would happen to you.”“And if it does, am I supposed to hold you responsible afterwards?!” Scar sneers coldly, watching the man’s face turn one grade more pale.“Would you rather have me tie you up?” Saying threatening words, but the man looks like he could barely walk, let alone subdue her with force.She knew he couldn’t handle his liquor. But just two cups of wine?Her lips curved, Scar pulls open her collar a little, teasing the man as she hides the photo under her bra. She doesn’t miss the man’s throat rolling at her move, and his losing focus eyes nailed on her. In those eyes is not dirty lust, but some kind of clean, devout desire.“Don’t test me...” The man mumbles, “I was never good at self-control when it comes to you.”“Make me,” Scar taunts, smiling

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   320 Drink Her Poison

    Scar didn’t take the wine.As if Sebastian “happens” to find her in a room that only Anna Fuller should know that she is in, he showed up with a cup of wine that he insisted that her drink? No, thanks. Even if he wasn’t Ava’s minion before, he surely looks like one now.“Did Ava send you here to do the job she failed to do five years ago?” Scar snorts coldly.“She told me where you are, yes,” Sebastian admits plainly, to Scar’s surprise. “I know you hate Ava, but it wasn’t her five years ago. Don’t you want to know who it really was? You can lock Ava up, but it means someone who wants you harmed is still out there.”“One less, at least,” Scar snorts.The man laughs, picks up a cup and takes a sip of it. Scar watches with cold eyes. If he thinks this can prove that the wines are okay, he thinks too simply of her!“Would you like this one? Seeing that I’m still alive?” As if heard what she was thinking, the man taunts her, handing the drink he just tasted. His eyes were laughing, as if

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   319 Throw A Punch

    Lilith bites her lips.Her doubt about this man is growing by the day, but she didn’t know he saw it all. It’s not like he ever did anything to hurt Scar, on the surface. But all the mysterious mist around him is raising too many alarms to ignore.“You said you care about Scar, and your medical team keeps saying that she needs to establish healthy connections with people, but how is it healthy when you are getting her to rely on you more and more without even knowing who you are?” Lilith demands.“A legit worry,” Silco doesn’t seem to be offended, but his questions are sharp like knives, “Does Sebastian Knight share this worry?”Lilith opens her mouth, taken aback. She doesn’t want to admit it, but it’s really hard to lie, especially to succeed in front of this old fox.The man on the other side laughs again.“Did he reach out to you, or was it the other way around?” He suddenly asks, and Lilith feels the desperation when she realizes--This man saw through everything.At that moment,
