Chapter 9

009 Hatred Between Sisters Sebastian’s POV There are broken shards everywhere on the floor. I dare not put down Ava. Her blood platelet might have reached a normal level now, but no one dares to test if the monster that’s been haunting her is still lurking nearby.

The last time Ava needed blood from Scar was because of a paper cut, literally. One that Scar caused no less.

“...Please?” Scar mumbles when she walks over to me, not looking at me.

1 can’t put her down, you know why.”

Scar snorts coldly, finally looking up from under her messy hair. Jack must have slapped her really hard, to mess up her hair like that, as well as leaving a scarlet red palm print on her cheek.

“Excuse me,” Scar says with a clear but cold tone that I’m not familiar with, “coming through.”

I stopped Ava by the door.

1 frown, hating the sarcasm in Scar’s eyes. She knows why I misunderstood and she is mocking me for it. Every time I even just stood close to Ava she would come up and break us apart.

“Where are you going?!” Jack yells behind Scar before I can answer.

“To wait in the city, so I can be the blood vessel when your precious Ava needs it,” Scar sneers at Jack coldly. She always talks to Jack in that way. Rough father–daughter relationship since forever. But never did Scar act like this with Anna in the room.

Soar loves her mom like a little puppy. She hides the family drama from Anna.

Anna freezes shocked at Scar’s words, gasping for air, Blood vessel is a strong expression. Yes, most of the time when Ava gets injured, we need Scar’s help. It’s luck beyond my wildest dream that Jack found an orphan to adopt with the blood type Ava needed. But they gave Scar everything they could, the same as Ava. Even Ava gets jealous sometimes when Scar gets more.

I can’t believe Scar would use such a harsh phrase to Anna. No wonder Jack got so upset.

Before I could stop it, Ava’s hand landed on Scar’s face, adding to Jack’s palm print.

nly, Scar rubs her lip comer with the back of her hand, checking the blood. Ava’s nail left a slight cut on her lips. But when Scar looks up, there isn’t even a shred of anger in her eyes. Just pure coldness.

I hated the old Scar that would make a fuss every time she was crossed, but I don’t like this cold one even more. There is something off about her.

“Ava,” I warm, stepping away to put some distance between the two sisters.

1 can tolerate her for you, but not this time!” Ava cries, struggling to jump down, “Look what she did to MY mom!”

Both of the girls love Anna. She is a loving mother.

Scarlets out a cold laugh at Ava as if she said something funny, and that boils Ava. I don’t really get how +25 25 BONUS 009 Hatred Between Sisters two sisters who grew up together could hate each other so much like they are enemies. Well, most hatred is initiated by Scar.

Ava doesn’t like her, but she never initiates a fight first.

“Scar, this is enough,” I warn her. I started this mess. I should have caved when Scar brought up divorce. Instead, I let her go through with her show, and now she is out of control.

But Scar doesn’t stop like she usually would. My words used to work. She looks at me without a word, shaking her head slowly with disappointment in her eyes. I feel like I don’t know her anymore.

“I don’t need your blood anymore! I never wanted it in the first place!” Ava grips her fist like a little animal, pouting at Scar, “My family would be so much better off without you!”

To my surprise, Scar smiles. The Scar I remember would get angry and fight with Ava.

“Really?” Scar gives Ava a cold, taunting smirk, “Sorry I have been forcing you to take my blood all these years, but if it’s okay with your Highness, could you talk to your dear father and let me leave the city?”

Ava darts a surprised look at Jack. Jack closes his eyes with a sigh.

“I want you gone! Seb says it’s okay for me to think horribly like that!” Ava bursts into tears, “I hate you! I fucking hate you!”
