Chapter 84
084 Sweet Revenge
Scarlett's POV
Sebastian turns around to glance at me and right when I'm about to make

the offer, he says to Jack Fuller: "She shouldn't have used violence, for that apologize, on my wife's behalf."
Huh. That's a first.
"You don't have the night to apologize on my behalf," I hide myself we behind Adrian, challenging Jack Fuller, "Your daughter deserved that slap and mare, for furing me to be kidnapped. You two need to apologize to ME, or i WILL sue."
"Did you see? See what you are protecting?" Jack Fuller points a shaking finger at me.
Sebastian sighs at me, nailing his eyes on Adrian's arm which I hug as if that could stop me from clinging onto it.
For Sebastian to take my side against people who treat me wrongly was something beyond my wildest dream before. I try to find the sweetness or pleasure i should feel in it, but I fail. I have given too much for it, and I have wanted it for too long. It doesn't taste as sweet no itProperty © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Sebastian?! How could you take HER side..." Ava stomps her foot in disbelief, genuine tears rolling down her cheek, together with ruined makeup.
What am I talking about? Her tears taste SWEET!
"Ava, your ambulance is here," Not looking at Ava, Sebastian nods at the huge van staggering its way into the bumpy yard, "Just leave this as it is, and go with your dad for a check-up/"
kva opens her eyes wide, mumbling at Sebastian with shivering lips. "You... you are not corning?"
"She needs to come with," Jack Fuller cuts in, pointing at me, "Just in case. We don't know if Ava is fully cured yet."
Seriously? The shallow cut already stopped bleeding forever ago! If they stall any longer, the wound might heal before they could make it to the hospital.
"I'm not going anywhere without an apology from her!" I retort back. I'm not going even if with an apology, but it's not like Ava would ever do th
"Why would I apologize?!" Ava lashes out at me in tears, "I wasn't the one who kidnapped you! What do you want from me?!"
"I want you to not have lured me out and nearly caused my death," I say calmly.
To be honest, I don't really care about an apology from her. I just don't want to go with her as her blood vessel, not when I need to check up on my own baby without them knowing. I sneak a peek at Adrian, feeling my ears burning up at that. Just because he saved me, and now I worry about how he sees me already...?
He feels my peek, and returns a smirk.
Damn fox!
I turn away in a hurry, happen to meet with Sebastian's eyes, in there clearly written jealousy. I'm pretty sure my turning my interest to other men has been all his birthday wishes in these past few years. He doesn't have the right to look at me with judgy eyes. "He was going to kill me!" Ava cries so hard that she can barely breath, "It's not like I had a choice..."
Sebastian's hand moves as a string of her tears drop, as if he wants to wipe them off for her. I don't know why he is not doing that. If it's because of my accusation, then it's not necessary. He shouldn't have done so during our marriage, but now he can. He has got our divo papers right in his hand.
I'd rather he takes her side and let me lash out the fume in my chest. I don't need the guilt of feeling I'm the one forcing his hand again, to the end of the
034 Sweet Revenge
marriage this time.
"Ohh, yes, you had one."
A sullen drawl cuts into out conversation, with a shade of suppressed frantic laugh. Liam Ryan!
I shivered at that voice, and Adrian wrapped the arm I was hugging around my shoulder, shielding me from my nightmare. But my fear of that man can't compare with Ava's panic-blood drains from her face with visible speed at his words.
Liam Ryan's vicious eyes dart to me, the frantic smirk on his face gives me a chill down my spine. I don't think I'd like what he is going to say.
"Your own sister is your husband's mistress?" He grins at me, showing his yellow teeth, "Did you know, that she wants you dead?"
