144 The Mean Girl

Scarlett's POV

Jack Fuller doesn't like the mysterious man.

Damian Vanderbilt. A n| have never heard of in my life. | mean, | know the nVanderbilt. That family

owns more wealth than a king, and they are low-key as they are rich. But this nhas never had anything to

do with the Fullers. | mean, why would they? The Fullers can barely make it to the top ten families in the city.

But Jack Fuller, the man who sucks up to riches like Sebastian, doesn't like Damian Vanderbilt. No, not

dislike.

Jack Fuller hates him, and... is a bit afraid of him. He looks at Damian Vanderbilt in the exact sway he used

to look atwhen | was little.

It's a pure hatred for no good reason, and this hatred is deeply rooted in Jack Fuller.

He called this man to his home, only to disrespect him to his face? And the oddest part is, Damian Vanderbilt

doesn't seem to be offended. A rare quality for people with his kind of social status.

has his eyes on Ava, who is still sitting on the ground in shock. But he is not picking her up into his arms and

biting Jack Fuller's head off. That's something you don't see every day.

| didn't need him to hurt her for me. What | hate is him putting her aboveand everything else. If it hurts him

so much to watch her suffer, then he shouldn't torture himself.

"Very gentleman of you," Mocking, Damian Vanderbilt glares at Sebastian, apparently because Sebastian stands

the closest to Ava. He walks up a step and reaches out his hand to Ava: "Are you okay, Miss?"

Ava stares at him, smitten.

Of course she is. Having Sebastian in his palm, Ava has never stopped her collection of men. | mean, she even

tried with Adrian. So I'm not exactly surprised at her paying attention to the first man that has a fair chance

against Sebastian in every way- Wealth, a handsface, a hot body.

But being smitten is rare, even for her-

Damian Vanderbilt helps her up, and she literally blushes, standing behind Jack Fuller with her head kept low, her

whole face red with her deer eyes sending Damian Vanderbilt scared peeks.

Few men could resist Ava when she puts it all out.

"Seriously?" | blink, genuinely shocked at Ava's tiny brain that seems to be big enough for only thoughts about

how to get the next man, "You remember him, don't you???"

The man who humiliated you at a party? It is just me? Do people really forget about things like that?

"Who are you?" Damian Vanderbilt grunts at me, obviously hostile.

What?!

| open my mouth in shock, stammering: "You-you don't remember me?"

"I don't keep mean girls in my mind," Damian Vanderbilt shootsa cold glare.

Well, that much is true. He totally forgot about how the girl he is defending now was a mean girl he punished

himself, nor about how she bullied Lilith, who he gave a ridiculously expensive dress.

| guess it makes sense now that dress was probably nothing to him. To think | thought he was nice to Lilith and

was so grateful to him! He deserves Ava. May the arrogant billionaire and the mean girl be together and have

their happy ever after!

"Mr. Vanderbilt..." Jack Fuller hesitates, looking as if in a conundrum. He has snapped out of his loss of mind, and

he has put his fox mask back on, "I'm so sorry about my family farce. Would you please excuse me..."

"Yes, of course," Damian Vanderbilt nods, backing a step to make way, "I understand, and I'm happy to

reschedule."

"Thanks," Jack Fuller "forces" a faint smile, giving his hand to Ava like he is sold man dying of, apparently, a

Ava glances at her new target reluctantly, but she dares not to disobey her father. Especially right after that slap.

"Yes, daddy..." Ava takes Jack Fuller's arm, lowering her head as she walks Jack Fuller to the stairs, like the pitiful

little angel she paints herself to be.

| watch Ava leaving, knowing in desperation that I'm not seeing Mom's necklace soon- Jack Fuller has never

The necklace. It definitely belongs to my Mom.
