She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked

217 The Liar



"Scar!"

Scar left when Sebastian was dragged down by the Fullers. By the time he catches up, she's already by a pure black luxury car waiting right outside of the Fuller's gate. Scar wasn't going to wait for him until Sebastian hurried up a few steps and put his fingers between the half-closed door.

If he has to be honest, he is surprised that Scar didn't close the door on his fingers anyway.

But Scar turns visibly impatient at his way of stopping her.

"You just never settle for what's yours at the time, do you?" Scar says coldly, standing behind the door when Sebastian feels like the door is the furthest distance in the world.

A cold snort lands quietly in the car. Sebastian hears. On the back seat sits that masked man, Silco. That name upsets him. That man is using Scar, if he is not playing her also, he knows. He looked into that guy, and found nothing. Nothing! That's not normal, and it's not at the level of resources he has. Maybe that man doesn't exist on papers, meaning all the information he leaves behind him is fake; or, that man is more powerful than him in this city, which is highly unlikely.

Either way, that man is dangerous. Too dangerous for him to tolerate being near his Scar and Alice. His!

"I came for you," Sebastian suppress his panting in his chest, reluctant to look weak in front of the dangerous man, "I know what you are after, and I can help."

"What am I after?" Scar smirks coldly, her purple eyes lands downward condescendingly like an ice queen. He knew she was the prettiest in most rooms, but never has he seen this side of her: arrogant, but somehow not annoying but luring.

"The Fullers and everything they owe you," Sebastian says genuinely, "I can help you."

Scar lets out a sarcastic laugh, darting her eyes elsewhere as if trying to suppress a burst of laughter at a funny joke. Without a word, she opens the door wide open before she steps aside, throws a nod at the masked man's direction with ataunting tone: "Let me introduce you then, meet Silco, my sugar daddy."

The masked man looks up at Sebastian at her "introduction", his thin lips form a taunting curve, and his stone-dead eyes show no emotion. As if not seeing his cold attitude, Scar returns him with a big grin.

Silco? "That's not even a real name!" Anger lights up at the arrogance of the masked man, "Scar, he is just using you-"Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

"And what exactly have you and the Fullers been doing to me?!" Scar cuts him off, anger that wasn't there a moment ago spouting out, "Now it's a problem because someone else is doing it?"

"I have made mistakes, I admit. I'm sorry for all that happened, and I'm willing to pay for whatever price you see fit," Sebastian blurts fast, "Whatever he is offering you, I can give you! More safely! I know you hate me, but I have never actively tried to harm you, please, you know that!" She does know, but she is not going to give him that satisfaction.

"Sure, just accidentally harmed me, over and over again," Scar laughs out loud, and in her taunting tone Sebastian feels his heart drop into a free fall seeing that his considerate Scar is no longer behind those purple eyes, "Sebastian Knight, you didn't pull the trigger, but you were just as guilty as the Fullers. Your hands are just as dirty as them if not more. Stop lying to yourself! I don't know how big a part they played in my mom's death, but your hand is stained with my child's blood!"

Sebastian opens his mouth, only to pursue his lips again.

Alice's name is shivering on his lips, but he swallows it, along with the million words he has stuffed in his chest for her.

He can't put Alice under the cold,

lethal eyes of the dangerous man, Silco. He doesn't know what he wants from Scar; he doesn't know his motive, not even his name. Never was there a moment when he felt so powerless in his life. He wants to provide for the two women he cares about the most in this world, but looking by his stone-cold eyes of Silco, he dares not to even tell Scar that the child she's mourning over.

He has to find out that man's dark secret, fast!
