She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 244 A Clear Message
With Ava and Jack Fuller hovering at the front door, Scar doesn’t even step out of the elevator, but just remains inside for the underground parking lot. She is so drowned in Damian’s words that she barely makes it out before the door closes on her—“You are a lot like Mom,”That’s what he said. Even now Scar’s heart is pumping fast at that. Is she? She doesn’t even remember being held in that woman’s arms. She doesn’t remember the home she briefly stayed in. She doesn’t even remember the car accident which should have left some impression even in her childish mind.But she grew up into a woman a lot like her angel-like mother?What did she blurt? She was so daunted in the face that she murmured: “I have always imagined her to be like one of those…”Elegant ladies. Those who would sit in a café at 3pm, watching out the window with 20-dollar-coffee in hand.“Like a lady, huh?” Damian grins, seeing through her easily, “Nahhhh. Far from it. Mom is cool, almost hippy like. She would drive

All the way home Scar feels like something stuffed in her chest. Over and over again she tells herself that she doesn’t care about Johnny Vanderbilt, but it doesn’t seem to work.A car seemed to have followed her for a while, but it was gone at the last turn.She lives in a house in the upper part of the town now, a community better and safer than the Fuller’s villa. Silco rented her this place, along with the guards. When she arrives, Silco is not yet home.Scar throws herself into the sofa, frustrated about Johnny Vanderbilt, and herself. Not only did she have to take all the garbage about him from Jack Fuller, but she also had to see with her own eyes that the man was not interested in making up with her. Not that she cares, but still, it doesn’t feel good.She is getting mixed information about that man.In Damian’s eyes he was a loving husband, a strict father who spoils his own daughter. But Emma left him for cheating, Anna was convinced that he was still into her, and from what

“Why do I have to do it myself?!” Scar huffs, glaring at Silco.Sitting on the sofa casually with his legs crossed, Silco glances at Scar from above the papers he’s reading, amused. A moment ago the girl was crying in his arms, and now she’s like a kitten with her tail stomped on.“I can send Arthur over!” Scar pouts.“If you can command him,” Silco answers almost gently, but the laughter in his voice is not hidden at all.Scar rolls her eyes.“I’ll just--I--” Scar blurts, fidgeting around, “You already gave up on Sebastian’s company, so why are you making the one last step so hard for me?!”“Sorry, I didn’t think delivering a card to a fancy office building with a driver at your service all the time would be a horrifying chore,” Silco answers, still with that annoying smile.“You KNOW that’s not what I’m talking about!” Scar snaps angrily. If she had been grateful to this man with her full heart a moment ago, she is now annoyed 120%, “You can send anyone but me!”“I’m spending two bi

“You want to meet early?” Scar glances at her phone to make sure the caller is indeed Damian, “Sure thing, but how early can dinner be?”She’s a bit surprised that Damian would move their dinner plan forward, but considering how he has been making effort to build a connection, she persuaded herself.“Authur, could you--?”“Yes, Miss Green,” Authur answers swiftly, “After you deliver the card, I will drive you right over.”Scar: “…”This time she’s really not trying to dodge that bullet! Didn’t he hear that it was Damian Vanderbilt who--… Whatever.Standing in front of Sebastian’s new building, Scar is still grumbling Silco’s name, along with his evil loyal driver, Author. Sebastian’s new building is not the same as before – the modern design of Z-house as its own symbol. This time it’s just a normal building, low-key to the extreme, considering its owner’s usual luxurious style.A sour wave washes Scar’s heart.Kind and gentle, Sebastian was never low-key. He was the shining prince of

Prepared for this question, Scar answers unnecessarily fast: “I couldn’t risk anyone helping Ava to get MY Mom’s necklace. That’s why.”Her answer dims the pleasant light in Sebastian’s eyes.“I know…” Sebastian nods slowly, hiding the disappointment in his eyes, “But you didn’t have to come help because of that, did you?”Scar snorts coldly: “I’m doing this for Granny, not you.”“Granny kicked me out of the company for what happened five years ago,” Sebastian lets out a light laugh, “I’m pretty sure she would be the last one who would want you to help me right now.”Scar raises her eyebrows. She didn’t think Granny would be so cruel to Sebastian, but then again, there weren’t too many who could rip Sebastian’s title easily.“What did you tell her?” Scar frowns.Scar blamed Sebastian only because he trusted the wrong person. Legally, or any other aspect speaking, he wasn’t the killer five years ago. He just protected the killer was all. But Ava was never convicted, and Scar didn’t thi

“I told you, I’m not after your money nor your company,” Scar says calmly, dropping the card on the table.“Then what are you after? Why are you here with a card to help me from going bankrupt?” Letting the card bouncing off the table, Sebastian grabs her wrist instead before she could pull back. He leans in so close that she could smell his cologne, his head bent lower to nail her eyes as his whisper stiffens her body: “...why do you care at all…Mrs…Knight?”“I’m not--!” Scar tries to swing his hand off, only to stop in the middle of her outburst, glaring at him like a puffed balloonfish.Sebastian curves his lips.“You are not Mrs. Knight? I know.”Scar won’t answer.“You hate me, don’t you?” Sebastian announces. The pain in his voice hidden well. “You hate me so much that you don’t want anything to do with me, even if I’m handing you my everything. Why won’t you say it out loud?”Scar lowers her eyelids to prevent the man from seeing through her, but he continues--“The Scar I knew

The fateful night five years ago, Sebastian almost lost the two people he cared about the most. His wife, and his unborn baby that he didn’t even know existed. He spent all the time he could spare after taking care of the baby and Scar on tracking the person who broke in, and he knew as much as the police if not more. That’s why the policeman didn’t arrest Ava --It wasn’t her.Ava didn’t cut her wrist when she was taken to the hospital. She did sneak out of her room and back in through her window. All of that was true. Scar accused Ava of being in the house, and provided detailed evidence about when she heard noises in the house and what happened after that, and the police did look in that direction. It was actually easy to find out how that person broke into the house without triggering the security system--Ava’s fingerprint was used as the last guest, exactly at the time when the break-in happened.But it was exactly Scar’s testimony that proved Ava’s innocence--Ava was captured

Long after Scar stormed out of Sebastian’s company, her hands are still shaking. It takes three of Authur for her to snap out of it to hear his question.“Where are we heading now, Miss?” Authur is patient just as the first time he asked her.“Sorry!” Scar takes a deep breath, combing her hair with her fingers to calm herself, “Let me…give me a minute.”She’s two hours early for her dinner plan with Damian. Either going back to Silco, or sitting by herself for another two hours. But Scar wants to do neither.She can’t help letting Sebastian’s words get to her.If it was before, she would never doubt his word even when he treated her as his enemy. That man doesn’t lie. But now? She’s not sure. He let Ava get to her not once, but twice. Honesty is not the only thing that matters in this game.She’s not even sure if his feelings have changed about lying. After all, it was Ava. Scar won’t be surprised no matter what that man does for her.Could it be true though?She didn’t see that woman

“Sebastian, please. You know today is important to mom,” In the end, Ava softens her voice, putting on her innocent victim act. After all, that’s the role she has been practicing her full life, “Mom sees Mrs. Green as her own granny, and they haven’t seen each other in decades. I just want to make sure that the night will go smoothly, that’s all.”Sebastian cocks his eyebrows, genuinely shocked. A bit apprehensive, he dares not to look at Scar, only to realize Scar might not even know--Scar has no clue that her mom has anything to do with THE Green family in the country. Not to mention the fact that Anna Fuller knew Emma way before their marriage drama with Johnny Vanderbilt. Green is too common a name, and Scar only picked it because the only one who ever showed her love was the mom who died for her.“I don’t think being rude to Mrs. Green’s invited guest would do that,” Sebastian grabs Scar’s wrist, showing the invitation held in her hand to Ava as if it’s just an innocent move. Sc

For the preparation of the script, Sebastian offered Scar an office at his company – a special perk that none of his movies had shared before. After all, there is no such need for his directors OR his writers to have an office at the headquarters.Of course, it’s just his way of trying to get close to Scar.And of course, Scar didn’t take up on his offer.She wanted Sebastian’s company to deliver her movie because Ava would hate that. Nothing else. Rejected, Sebastian allowed the month Scar wanted for the script, and told her there would be a shooting team ready for her.The next time Scar met Sebastian, it had already been a week after the incident with Ava, who didn’t make any move during. For a moment there, Sebastian expected a divorce paper from Ava, but she didn’t do it.The condition for Ava to donate blood for Scar was that Sebastian would marry Ava, give her Z-house, and… he can’t divorce her.Unlike Scar, Sebastian was sentenced to life that night.“What is SHE doing here?”

“What are you doing here?!”An angry shout bursts out when Scar is just finishing putting her signature down on the contract.Ava barges into the office.Sebastian wasted no time to fulfill his promise as if worried that she would back out of the deal she brought to him. Worried about Ava? Even after all the shitty things Ava pulled, he still takes care of her. Protecting Ava is a habit carved deep into his bones.His secretary drafted the movie contract with shocking speed. Scar would have had her lawyer go through it, but she didn’t. Even if there were loopholes in the contract, she wouldn’t care.Her target was never the profit. It was Ava.Watching Ava storming in, Scar just sits there with a taunting smile. This is such a familiar scene that Scar almost can’t stop herself from laughing -- there was a time when she was the angry wife storming into his office when he was spending time with Ava.“Fancy seeing you here, Mrs. Knight,” Scar taunts with her head tilted. Ava pauses a sec

“How long have you been standing there?!”Sebastian didn’t realize he had been standing there staring until Scar suddenly looked up only to gasp startled.“Sorry! I knocked but you didn’t hear me,” Sebastian blurt, raising both his hands, “I didn’t want to disturb.”His polite and gentle tone raises guilt in Scar. She was the one who came unannounced, and still he agreed to talk. She is in HIS meeting room and she just shouted at him when she was the one being rude.“Sorry…” She mumbles, frowning at herself. She just realized that she still owe the man a “thank you”, and instead of that, she seemed to have bullied him again. She spent her whole teenage years trying to get his attention and she failed, but now when she wants to cut him out of her life, it only seems to tangle their lives even closer.“You wanted to see me?” The man smiles at her, pulling out the chair at the end of the long table, next to her but not too close as the one beside her would be.Scar likes the distance. He
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 269 Never Asked Question
Sebastian never got that phone call.Mainly because Scar didn’t go through it. Call it cold feet, but she wasn’t even sure how to talk to him about it -- about her revenge plan.Never before had she felt so lonely, not even in those five years.In those five years, she knew she was shutting herself down. She couldn’t let herself crawl out of the grief of her baby, but she knew she had friends, and maybe families if she wanted.Not like now.She was so determined to die with Ava. To ruin her life like how Ava ruined hers, before ending it with their death. That was so simple and efficient a plan, and she was okay with that.But she can’t find the courage to embrace death in her anymore, not after the incident with Sebastian.She didn’t know if he saved her out of love or guilt, but he did save her. She had a glimpse of death, and he sheltered that dark shadow with his own body, and that shone a new light on her life. She is still living in the big house Silco got her, having all the fa

“Why is Scar mama starting at the sky all the time?”Alice’s voice pulls back Scar’s wondering mind. She blinks, only to realize that she has again lost her train of thought sitting on the bay window in her bedroom. She has been like this for a week after the incident with Sebastian.She feels like a part of her is left behind at the dim abandoned factory, but she can’t pin down what.From the corner of her eye, she spots Alice sticking her head into her bedroom but only barely as if trying to hide, but her chubby hands grabbing the frame of the door already exposed her long before.How cute. Scar thinks.Pretending that she didn’t spot Alice, Scar sighs, drawling her tone as if talking to herself: “What a dull view. If only my cute little Alice is right here right now...”“But I am!” Alice couldn’t wait but jumped out from where she was hiding, raising her arms high up with a smile brighter than the sun, “Scar mama, I’m here to visit you!”Scar bursts into laughter as she picks Alice
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 267 Rule Of The Game
That’s the only plausible option.He has no idea who Silco is, and he takes this blind shot only because: he doesn't feel any hostility from Silco against Scar. Silco IS pulling off some dirty shit, but it wasn’t to hurt HER. He was the only target in this show.Silco sent the men to abduct her, but the crash managed to hit the front left corner of Scar’s car when she was in the right back seat, where she would take the least damage. They imprisoned her but didn’t even pull a knife on her, not until he barged in. They chased after them with bats and others, but Scar came out with not even a scratch.They could have easily cracked his skull when he tried to guard the door with his own body.Even if it was all a show, it was carried out with great care. His motive is not hatred toward Jack Fuller, but care for Scar. After this long, the man has dodged only one of his questions: why he is helping Scar.Why indeed. There is no other possibility.To his surprise, Sebastian’s question makes
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 265 Silco's Command
“And puts him away for two or three years with half of that time paid off with YOUR money?” Silco lets out a cold snort, “Did you get to where you are all by your grandma’s wealth and that empty head of yours?”Sebastian’s ears turn red.“The only reason I would not press charges is if they would provide information on Jack Fuller, and Jack Fuller knows that,” Silco explains impatiently as if facing a silly student, “even if they deny that, Fuller won’t believe it. He is that kind of man.”“You know him personally?!” Sebastian catches that quickly.Silco lets out a cold smirk, but this time with satisfaction in his eyes.“Jack Fuller has some links to the mafia,” Silco continues, ignoring Sebastian’s question, “and I want to dig up his roots this time. Get it, smart kid?”“I’ll play along if you let me in your treatment plan for Scar,” Sebastian negotiates.“Now you care about her? Did you care when you left her for that mistress of yours on her wedding day? Did you care when you enjo
She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked 264 The Conundrum
Sebastian doesn’t want to.“I know about her episodes,” He pushes these words out of his clenched teeth. He got in touch with Scar’s medical team back when she was in the facility, but all he knew was, Scar couldn’t handle any strong emotion waves for now.“I know you do,” Silco laughs carelessly, “I was the one who told them to let you in. How else do you think you could get to MY people?”Sebastian frowns because he doesn’t want to look too surprised. The truth is, he IS surprised. He couldn’t get much more information no matter how much he offered, and before today, he thought the medical team was only being loyal to their vows of being doctors.Only now does he realize -- this man has been in control of everything. Reluctantly, Sebastian has to admit his defeat: “Please, tell me what she needs.”Silco lets out a cold snort, making it clear that he is not pleased: “You know what DPD is?”Sebastian nods. He has expected that to be her diagnosis, and he has been looking into it.“And
