“Got the phone?” Sebastian asks.

Smirking, Ava swings Scar’s phone happily at Lilith, who is sitting on the floor of a small closet. Her hands are tied behind her back, a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth. “I don’t think she would be able to get out of your knot. Do you think I could leave the phone in the room with her, just a taunt?” Ava asks.

The man shoots Ava a weird glance, “Is that why we crime? To challenge ourselves?”

Ava grains her teeth, nervously waiting for his answer, but hearing it, she laughs. No, the crime is to ruin Scarlett Fuller.

“Just trying to save a trip back to the crime scene,” Ava grins at him, landing her chin on his chest coquettishly.

The man lets out a cold snort, pushing her up but Ava won’t oblige. He stops, looking down into her eyes.

“I want a kiss,” Ava pouts her shiny lips.

Sebastian turns slightly, his eyes landing on Lilith. This is it, the moment of truth. If he kisses Ava--

“Sure, I don’t mind,” Says the man.

Lilith’s pupils shrink at the sho

  • She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked   341 Telling Her The Truth

    Adrian couldn’t even wait for dinner time to find Sebastian. He catches the man in the superstructure, who seems to have left Ava’s cabin only a minute ago.“What are you doing here?!” Adrian’s voice is shaking with suppressed anger.Sebastian pauses when Adrian surprises him, but then falls back to the indifferent look he always has now, “I’m walking here. Thought that much was obvious?”“You think you are funny?” Adrian grabs Sebastian’s collar, “Were you with Ava Fuller just now?!”Sebastian lets out a light laugh, seemingly amused by Adrian’s words. But just when Adrian thought the man wouldn’t answer, he speaks, loud and clear, “Ava Fuller is my legal wife. Is there any law I’m breaking by being with her?”“Ohh, and now you are in love with that snake again?” Adrian demands, and Sebastian shrugs with an annoying grin--“I thought I have always been.”Adrian raises his fist high into the air, threatening to land it on Sebastian’s face: “Scat told me everything! What got into you,

  • 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
