Damian’s POV

I frown at the sight, confused, too.

I got her 10,000$ in that fight last time. I didn’t dare give her more because she might get suspicious. So when she didn’t return to the black fight club, I took that as the money being enough to cover whatever problem she was having. So why is she doing another part-time? At such a place no less?!

“You don’t work your people too hard, do you?” Oliver says with a sarcastic tone, “I knew there was a dark side in that girl! Not to brag but... I told you soooo.”

I click my tongue at him, and he raises both his hands but rolls his eyes at the same time.

Oliver doesn’t like Lilith for some reason. He keeps calling her my pet because he sees her as a gold digger. Well, he sees all women around me as gold diggers, and most of the time, I agree with him. But he is wrong about Lilith. She has something special in her. I don’t know why he can’t see that.

“Since your surprises are not coming anyway--” I stand up, sorting my suit. Maybe I should

The building was when I just wanted Sebastian to leave Scar alone. He deserves Ava. Not sure about Oliver or Dummy. I get face blindness concept but voice. Does he need to see Lilith with Scar to jog his memory? Scar is married to Seb but Seb kept chasing Ava. Doesn’t that look bad to Dummy?

I'll be happy if Damian doesn't join the Ava gang of mistreating Scar. She's tired already from almost being tossed from a building

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   309 Out Of Control

    [I’m drugged, SOS. Guest room on the east side, second floor.]Typing these into Scar’s chat with Silco, Lilith hesitates to send them.This is Sebastian’s plan. Simple and effecient.Silco never shows himself on the stage, but this time, he has to come out from behind the curtain. Scar gets drugged at a party held by the Greens is more than enough to get the Greens’ name involved. What would you do, “Silco”? Are you going to save Scar, or leave her out here to dry?The best outcome is that Silco cares about Scar and reveals his own identity. It would be easy to decide whether it’s a good idea to keep letting Scar staying so close with her. And hopefully, under that mask is a friend.But if not...Lilith’s original plan was Sebastian.That’s why she went to him. In case the mask reveals a powerful enemy, Lilith needs an as powerful ally. But she is no longer sure if she can count on Sebastian, not after that fall-out. Not after Scar cut all the ties with him, after that man stood in t

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   308 The Show Is On

    Scar arrives at the party together with Lilith, fashionably late.If she was nervous about being a spy for the first time, that nervousness has doubled with Lilith by her side—“Since when are you interested in this kind of event?? I don’t know if I can keep an eye on you all that well…” Scar hisses at Lilith when she pauses at the grand gate of the Hilton House, which, in her eyes now, is nothing short of a bloody evil nest.Lilith is as nervous as Scar is, only for a different reason: “Why are YOU so nervous about this? I thought you went to these kinds of events all your life!”Ughhh! The two girls both grunt in their minds, for different reasons.Scar needs to look out for arrows from the dark, which could come from any direction, and Lilith…Well, she needs to shoot one, at the most dangerous target no less.Lilith’s phone beeps and she almost jumps up when Scar looks over as she covers her phone to her chest.“What?” Scar lets out a taunting laugh at Lilith’s reaction, “Our littl

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   307 Challenging The Evil Dragon

    Granny was actually serious about it?? Scar hesitated: “Actually, about that--”“Did you really think Granny would be such a fuddy-duddy to arrange you a marriage??” Granny laughed at her, and Scar’s eartips instantly turned red, “I see you as my own granddaughter, but I would never force such a thing on you, silly!”Scar let out a grunt. She was really worried!But then Granny’s next sentence surprised her--“Scarlett, I need your help.“The Greens are family, my lovely doll, and they need help, right now,” Granny looked into Scar’s eyes, solemn this time, “Would you grant the wish of an old lady who is too retired to get back on the battlefield?”“Help with what?” Scar blinked in confusion.“The Green family, they are not as simple as ours. When a king is weak, sharks gather around the throne. Elijah is that weak king right now. I was worried there was something off about the death of his son, and now someone just fed the new prince a story to turn him against his own father. He cou

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   306 The Mellow King

    It became really hard to say no to Granny when she put in so much effort to put it all together. Scar didn’t have the heart to say no to her face, so all she was able to do was a numb nod.Besides, it sounded like the problem was with Scott!Did she just got stuffed with an arranged marriage? The day became so surreal, and Scar was half-minded the best through the rest of the catch up between friends. Luickly for her, Sophia Green found an excuse to leave soon after, apparently sharing that surreal feelings of hers.Scar peeked out of the window when Sophia Green left. Sophia was shocked to see Sebastian still nailed down in the yard, and she paused. But in the end, she just shook her head and left.Scar felt bad. Sebastian did a horrible thing to her, something she could never forgive. But he had always been a good grandchild to Granny, and he really cared about her. It pained Scar to see the once lovely grandma and grandson stuck in a cold war like this, because of her no less.But

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   305 Granny's Solution

    “What?” Granny shrugged at her two shocked-to-the-core guests with a confused frown.One thing Scar admired about Granny, was that she was a woman of her word. She mentioned one time about how she would take Scar as her own grandchild if it couldn’t work out between her and Sebastian, and that she wouldn’t take sides between them.She did. She took Scar’s side.Scar felt bad as if she drove Granny away from Sebastian, but it was a huge relief that Granny wasn’t hell-bent on urging her to “forgive” him like any loving family would, or it would be really hard for Scar to face her.But still, it was shocking as a bomb when Granny really treated her as her granddaughter and started looking for a husband for her!Exchanging a look with Sophia Green, Scar could see in her eyes what she was thinking herself --Please, no.She had never seen Scott that way, not even after his abrupt confession only days ago. It wasn’t about Sebastian, it was her. She had gone a long way from the girl who woul

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   304 New Found Prince

    Scar saw. She not only saw, she was there.Three days ago. Granny’s house.It had rained for days ever since the day Scar had the bad fallout with Sebastian, just like her mood. The man never reached out for their “deal” again. Scar so wanted to throw everything away and just carry out her plan to “pull Ava into hell with her”, but she found the desire to die in her no longer there.She died and crawled on the thorned path of revenge, but somewhere along the way, she crawled back to life.She lost her child, and she thought that was her whole world. But it’s not. She has Silco, Alice, Lilith, and even Damian is a brother that’s not whole bad now.In desperation, Scar realizes Sebastian’s deal worked -- He took away her will for death, and now Scar has no other option but to go the long way after Ava. AND he didn’t have to go on with the deal with her!That man is still the shark at any negotiation table. Scar grits her teeth in that realization.So when she arrived at Granny’s house a
