037 The Loving Birds Show
Scarlett’s POV
I don’t really want to go.
I don’t know how to face Granny.
I was the one who asked for this marriage, and I was the one ending it. Well, I was the one ending it because he never was in it. But I do owe Granny. She really tried to get to know me, and she changed from being mad at me to accepting me into her family. She has treated me with nothing but fairness. But now I’m disappointing her again.
I don’t know how to tell her about the divorce.
The only console is, Sebastian promised that he wouldn’t announce the news before Granny’s birthday party.
I think that’s why he has been delaying his signature. Granny wants us to be happy, truly
“Why the long face?” Aurora nips my face tauntingly, “You look like you are not going to a party, but your death execution.”
Yeah, a’party where Sebastian would be, and surely Ava and probably Gabriel. If there is any difference between that and death execution, it’s that the latter is painless.
“Thanks for coming with me, Aurora…” I put my head on her shoulder, mumbling. I hate taxis, especially in the city. They drive crazy, and I lose a life every time I get car sick. I suspect the baby also gets carsick easily because ever since I found out that I was pregnant, I feel like the pain has doubled.
“Sorry about the taxi, Scar…” Aurora pats my head and lets me close my eyes on her
houlder, “Damn that red–light runner! Or I would have driven you myself…”
As a former racer, Aurora has absolute control when driving, and she’s the only driver who doesn’t get me car sick. She got into a car accident recently. Not too big a deal, but she can’t drive it until she gets her bumper fixed.
“I’m fine…” I close my eyes to steady my breath.
It’s not the ride that I’m worried about. It’s the destination.
The party is held at the Plaza Hotel. I arranged everything, from the guest list to Granny’s favorite caterer. When we arrived at 7 PM, the square in front was packed, and the driver had to pull up by the side of the road.
“Just great!” Aurora complains, flipping the driver as he grunts at us for making him come to such a busy street.
