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   340 They Want Me For The Heir

    “What’s gotten into you?!” Scar blurts at Sebastian without thinking.Sebastian’s finger twitches when her voice rises, but he doesn’t give any other indication that he heard her.“He won’t talk to you, because I forbid it,” Ava says with a harmless smile, “He is the one who can’t leave me now.”Scar frowns. She turns to Scott for a shared concern, but Scott doesn’t seem to care or find Sebastian’s reaction curious.Scott shrugs carelessly, “What can I say? That man has a history of wanting things after he lost them.”It’s not that.“Now you miss being pursued by him?” Ava taunts, “You said you were over him, but at the end of the day, you just enjoy the satisfaction of having men at your feet as much as I do. And you are more of a hypocrite becau

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   339 News To Me

    “Enough of me,” Scott apparently notices how her attention is not on him, “so, why are you here?”“This is Adrian and Aurora’s fifth-year anniversary tour. Me and Lilith are just attached-alongs.” Scar waves her hand carelessly.She knows that Adrian and Aurora wanted them to come only because they were worried about her. She moved out of Silco’s place without ever telling them a reason, and they haven’t urged her on that yet. Scar is grateful.“Ohh, that’s good,” Scott lets out a relieved sigh, exaggeratedly, “I thought it was because of what Sophia said.”Scar blinks her eyes, only to understand his words after a few seconds.He doesn’t know!Of course he doesn’t. He went to Granny to ask for her hand. That was that. He didn’t know that Scar wasn’t in

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   338 Forgive Himself

    But instead of a friendly shake, the owner of that hand pulls Evens Moore right off his seat, slapping him with a cold warning: “You don’t know who she is? Evens Moore, star journalist of the Gossip Tongue. I still remember your ‘deep’ story trashing Scar five years ago. How shameless of you to come here and talk to her?!”Scar opens her eyes wide. She didn’t see that, nor Scott’s coming.“A man’s gotta eat,” Evens Moore grins without a shade of remorse when his lie was just exposed in front of the people he tried to lie to, “See you around then, former Mrs. Knight.”His level of shamelessness really impresses Scar.“Don’t mind him. Just a lousy paparazzi lives on sucking blood off other people’s life story,” Scott comforts Scar before he turns to Sebastian with a grunt. Scar didn’t know, but you sho

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   337 Evens Moore

    Sebastian is not exactly avoiding Scar.Three days passed, and he has been keeping a rather regular routine. A light breakfast. A quiet sunbath at his regular spot. A light lunch. Back to his sunchair. A late, lighter dinner. Then disappear from people’s eyes. He always looks sleepy as if he had no sleep at night. He has never tried to come and talk to Scar, and he wouldn’t leave a room just because she was in it, either.Scar thought she wanted him to leave her alone, but the void doesn’t feel comfortable, only weird.Apparently, he has been living on the cruise for the past month, just drifting with the water, and letting the waves take him wherever. It’s surprising to Scar how the media has been reporting that the mysterious CEO “went missing,” considering he wasn’t exactly hiding--On the third day after Scar aboarded, the cruise changed its course for so

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   336 Stay Out Of Your Life

    At the end of the day, Adrian failed to get an answer out of Sebastian.The man seems to have lost interest in everything. He lay on that chair all day until the night breeze was too cold for topless. Dinner was in the grand hall, a fancy buffet. But he didn’t go until most of the dishes were out, and he sat in a corner and barely had anything.Scar knows, because she witnessed all that. Because Adrian stalled them from leaving after dinner, claiming that he was interested in the after-dinner jazz show. Scar didn’t realize he was waiting for Sebastian until Aurora called it out--“Adrian!” Aurora hisses at him when she sees Sebastian, “Are you serious?! You are setting them up? After everything?!”She glances at Scar, who lowers her eyes, not joining the conversation.Sebastian wasn’t helping Ava, at least that day at the Green’s party, he wasn’t. That much Scar saw. For some reason, he knew about Ava’s scheme, or even joined in, but in the end, he warned her against it, and revealed

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   335 Heroin

    Alice has her piano lessons with Silco. Scar still prefers to call him that. It feels funny how Lilith would take her daughter to visit Silco, and Scar would grind her brain to find something to do, so she would be conveniently “inconvenient” to go with her.She can’t hide it from Lilith for too long like this, so when Adrian brought up a cruise trip, Scar jumped on board without a second thought.And that’s how she ended up here--Freezing in front of a sunlounger on the deck, with Sebastian lying on there, topless.The man has his forearm over his eyes, lazily draping it for the blinding sun. His skin is paler than usual, and though still with those eight packs that he puts a lot of effort into, he is visibly slander.As if he just walked out of a grave illness.Scar glares at Adrian, who shrugs innocently, but with a naughty grin.
