She Accepted Divorce He Panicked (Scarlett and Sebastian) novel Chapter 7

Sebastian’s POV

I didn’t reply to Scar’s message. She would never leave. She just manipulates with threats like this.

I might have spent too much time on Ava recently, and Scar is throwing a tantrum. She should understand that it’s a life on the line, even if that life belongs to the sister she hates.

Not that I don’t understand Scar. I do. Being the healthy one, she is jealous of all the extra attention Ava is getting. That’s why she is the problem child. Always rebellious but proud, acting indifferent but begging for love. She is always looking for attention, with sour messages, tears, or a divorce.

I didn’t think she would really give me a signed one. Think of the catastrophe if I dared to really go through with it.

Surely enough, Scar came back.

No longer with that half-empty suitcase either. I guess her show ends tonight.

After all, today we got the best result on Ava’s blood platelet, almost reaching normal level. Today is the day Ava finally gets to live a normal life.

“For a moment there, I really thought she would leave,” Ava says, holding her smoothie with two hands cupping it like a child. She has to be careful with everything, and that makes her the quiet lady she is, “...you win.”

Ava saw Scar’s message. She bet that Scar would leave, me the opposite.

If Scar could leave, then she wouldn’t have used Ava’s injury to blackmail me five years ago.

“...Sebastian...” Ava hesitates, and I turn to her, “Is it super horrible of me to...to wish that she would?”

“Scar hurt you five years ago, so no, you are not horrible to feel that way.”

Scar knew how powerless Ava felt about her disease, and yet she still used that as leverage when Ava needed her the most.

She could have earned my gratitude if she saved her own sister without a condition, instead, she had to blackmail me, and make me hate her.

There is a reason why everyone hates her.

“Stay here tonight?” Ava glances at the sky getting dimmer, “You can’t drive. You had a drink.”

I look at my watch. Scar has been in there for almost twenty minutes now, I frown as I mumble at Ava’s question, “Scar can drive...”

If she doesn’t make it too hard on me and go home with me tamely.
