Chapter 158 Where I Lost
She Approved the Split He Fell Apart
Sebastianâs POV âItâs not the same,â I frown.
Scar knew about me and Ava, but does Adrian dare to let her know about him and her best friend? Besides, Aurora is Scarâs best friend, when Ava is only Scarâs sister.
Okay, maybe it looks similar on some levels, but I never misled Scar about my feelings about her! Thatâs the difference!
7 would have saved you in that abandoned building.â I see how stubborn I am in her e away on this, âI did, whether you believe it or not. So if you are into him just because donât. Scar, gratitude is not the same as loveââ
âSo why are you pursuing me then?â Scar cuts me off, âPlease donât tell me itâs out of âloveâ.â
It is. But I know she wonât believe me. I didnât even know when it happened.
ut I canât back ed you, then âThis is not about me. Even if you donât forgive me, you shouldnât choose Adrian. He is bad news.â
âI thought you were good friends,â Scar cocks her eyebrows, âWhat did he do to deserve that comment?â
A lot! He secretly came to visit Scar today when he was with Scarâs best friend almost all this week! | know that he pushed off important projects AFTER he knocked out all the competitors just so Aurora Dawson could get it. If thatâs not pursuing her, then I donât know what is!
I have been following him around recently, trying to keep anything from happening. If it was with anyone else, I would have told Scar. I donât want Scar to know such a thing about her best friend and...her possible crush.
How could such a sweet word be so bitter?
â...I canât tell you...â I sigh, knowing how powerless my reason is Scar trails her eyes up and down on me, her confused look turns into a weird face as if bursting into laughter but stopped herself at the last moment.
âIs he datingâuhh, someone?â Scar asks me suspiciously like a crafty little fox.
Dare I answer? I frown, hesitating. If she looked into it, then she would get hurt. I was hoping Adrianâs interest in Aurora can fade before Scar ever needs to know about it like with every other woman he has been with.
âWait, why wonât you tell me?â Scar suddenly frowns, a new level of confusion in her eyes as she searches for the answer in my eyes, âYou are...worried about....me?â
Is it this too hard to belleve? I wasnât into her when she forced me into marriage! Itâs not like I was a monster who wanted the worst for her! Am I like that in her eyes??
âWhen I took the vow on the altar, I took you as my wife,â I grab her curvy waist, shaking her slightly as if that can help convince her, âYou have every right to be mad at me. I was blind and I was stupid and I was kidding myself and I hurt you in that process but I...I wasnât a monster, was I?â
158 Where I Lost Scar blinks, looking straight into my eyes as if making a decision. In the end, she sighs with a nod: âYou are right. Iâm sorry. I didnât feel that you cared about me but...you are not a monster.â
Her tone is calm without passion. She has no love for me. That much I know by now. But it still hurts to confirm over and over again.
I let her go slowly. I donât want to, but I canât find even an excuse to keep her.
âAbout Adrian, actuallyââ Scar starts, but the blunt, annoying direction James Deep chooses this exact moment to shout âactionâ
loudly near us, and Scar turns to look. I want to pull back her attention, but seeing Scarâs freezing look I canât.
I look over too, and I see why-
Oliver Scott blocks the mean sisterâScarâs role in the movie â with a little furry tail in his wand.
Thatâs how Adrian met Scar for the first time! The school plays Adrian told me. Scar was the little wolf in sheepâs clothing. He liked her, so he went to tease her after the play, accidentally pulled off her tail and made her cry. Adrian told me â well, actually, shouted this to me after my wedding with Scar.
After I left Scar for Ava on our wedding day.
âThe white knight doesnât suit a little naughty wolf better than me,â Oliver teases the girl, giving her the tail, âHe wonât look at you even if you hide your wolf tall for him, but I appreciate you, for all you are.â
Watching the scene, I understand why I canât compete with that.
