She Accepted Divorce He Panicked (Scarlett and Sebastian) novel Chapter 191

Jack Fuller’s POV

Ava didn’t cut her wrist. She just wanted an excuse to see Sebastian.

We found out about that after we got her to the hospital. I can’t believe our daughter, the little innocent girl that we have been protected so carefully with all we have, would one day play us with a joke of her life. But what options do we have when all your little girl wants is a talk with the man she loved with her life?

Do I have any other choice but to play along? I don’t. Just like twenty years ago.

I don’t know why she is so obsessed with Sebastian Knight, but I mean, what can a father do? He is rich, has a pretty face, and top of all, he really cares about her, a lot. That much I can see. Besides, I’m not exactly against his help to the family business either.

But he has no longer been into her recently. Scarlett finally did it. She stole his heart. Everyone could see that. Everyone but Ava.

And she is not okay with that.

It’s my fault. I failed to make Ava and Scarlett real sisters. My guilt to Scarlett ruined the chance for that. I tried to hide it, but the weight of two lives is too heavy, for any man’s conscience. I couldn’t see Scarlett as my own. When I see her, all I see is blood I can’t wash off my hand. I only see my worst nightmare, alive and walking in front of my eyes all the time, tormenting my nerves.

Ava saw that in my eyes, and she started looking at Scarlett with hatred, too.

I want to end all of this.

I want to give Scarlett back to her real family. I want my bloody nightmare out of my life, leaving me safe and sound with my wife and my now-cured daughter. I want her brother with eyes sharp like an eagle to stop digging into my past.

The past could ruin everything. Yet I can’t even tell Ava. She can’t bear that kind of weight. Even if she could, I don’t have the heart to let her.

I thought using fake blood to trick us was the worst that Ava could do. I was wrong. I called Sebastian to come over like she demanded, and he said he would come over. But when I went in to check on Ava, I found her gone from the ward!

She sneaked out! There was only one place that she could go, and I sent Ryan, my most loyal bodyguard to Sebastian’s place to intercept her. I just hope he can get her back before anything irrevocable happens.

Maybe he did. Or Ava couldn’t have been in the ward right now.

“Please, you are scaring her!” I step in front of Sebastian, seeing Ava’s pale face and the thin sweat on her forehead. I dare not think what has happened. I have to send off Sebastian first.

“What did you do?” Sebastian ignores me, his eagle eyes nailing on Ava.

I want to know, too. But not right now. Not in front of him. I stared at Ava nervously, and she wouldn’t look at me.

Her eyes nail on him.
