She Accepted Divorce He Panicked (Scarlett and Sebastian) novel Chapter 229

Sure there are much more expensive rings, but not this one.

Sure, it’s the heart of the almighty Sebastian Knight, but he was only a teenager himself when he designed the ring. He had limited resources – well, limited as a Knight. Still. The designer is a family friend, and the stone, while rare, is only worth his pocket money at that time. The most valuable about the ring, is the emotion he stores in it.

Scar is upset at Sebastian’s tactful strategy – to follow her price only with 10,000$ at a time, and then suddenly doubles it. Anyone, even Silco himself if he was here today, would hesitate at least for a second.

Giving Sebastian a death stare, Scar doesn’t raise her plate. Fine! He wants his damn ring so much? He can have it! It’s not like she’s here for that stupid ring anyway.

Sebastian is looking in her direction. Gloating? Scar is determined not to look over, but then he opens his mic and clears his throat as if he wants to talk. Uncontrollably, Scar looks over, only to see his confused face saying – aren’t you going to follow?

Jerk!!!

Scar really wishes she could just close the curtain and bite the hell out of the annoying man.

She’s not the only one in frustration right now--

“Daddy, please…” Ava grabs Jack Fuller’s sleeve, shaking him, “Please--”

“That damn ring is not worth half of our possession,” Jack Fuller frowns, glaring at his daughter, “Ava Fuller, find some sense!”

His voice is low, but Ava still feels like a slap landed on her face.

She darts her eyes to the ring, tears at their edge. Sebastian wouldn’t give the ring to her, she knows. He has been tormenting her, and his heart is with Scar now. He is only putting in so much on the ring because he wants to give his heart to Scar, even though that woman would just slam it to the ground before treading on it without a care. That’s how much he’s spellbound. All because Scar stole him in the first place!

If it wasn’t her illness! If she didn’t bet that Sebastian would love her even if he is married to Scar on paper!

“Daddy, please! It’s all I have now!” Ava’s voice raises and she no longer cares, “Please, daddy! I have never begged you of anything, please! This is the one thing I ever wanted! I just…I really, really need to have it, please!”
