Chapter 30
030 A Light Thing
Sebastian's POV
"Why? Did something go wrong with Ava?" Scar frowns with a shrug, folding her arms.
She is not even trying to be sarcastic, and that's the most sarcastic.
| thought my words would make her happy, like before, | know she is really hurt this time, but I thought her eyes
would light up with sparkles even though she would try to maintain a cold face to fish for more comforting words
from me, like before. But there is none.
| never knew her watery purple eyes could be so cold like dry ice. It stings to look at her eyes like that. You really
want a divorce? | dare not ask. She would only say yes, even just to hurt me.
My mind has been in turmoil since Adrian messed it up. | can't imagine Scar asking for a divorce for real, but she
hasn't been hfor almost a week now, and she is not planning to any tsoon. I'm not used to this. The
whole house feels different now. It's no longer a home. Just a house.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt| used to think it was silly for her to stay up forwhen | got hlate. | thought she was just trying to curry
favor withby that, and I didn't like being manipulated. But now she is no longer there, and | don't even know
when | got used to her being there. Nights feel empty now.
How could she be serious about the divorce? It's not a light thing!
Not that | wasn't attempted to sign it, but not as much as I used to be. When it comes to anything but Ava, Scar
can be a really tamed kitten. Okay to have around the house.
She is nothing like Ava. She is a cat with claws and a temper, one that you have to feed and pat and coax. In
short, fun trouble. But Ava is a pretty bird. Quiet, mild...delicate. Something you have to protect.
1 know have been busy lately, and | know | hurt you the other day," | start, trying to avoid talking out divorce, I'll
make it up to you. Can you please chso we can talk about it?"
Scar tilts her head, looking atas if seen something new. | have never cto beg for How did we use to
solve a fight? Why is it so hard this time?
"Why did you agree to marryfive years ago?" Scar suddenly asks.
How dare she ask that?!
peace before.
"Why do you think?!" | grunt. Forget about making peace! She is just mockingand enjoying my suffering and
humiliation!
"Ohh, because you wantedto donate bone marrow for Ava?" Scar nods, her cold smirk annoysmore and
more, "Did you really think Jack Fuller wouldn't have madedo it if you didn't 'cave"?" Her air quotes really
hurt me. | did cave! | didn't love her, and | would have never married her if she didn't ask for that as the
condition to save Ava!
"What are you saying? That | love you?!"

"No, quite the opposite," Scar laughs, and that laughter stings with sarcasm, "I KNOW you don't love me,
and you
know Jack Fuller would makesave Ava no matter what. Even if you didn't, you should know after last
weekend. So."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"So? So what?!" | grunt, tired of her taunting.
Scar looks surprised before she sighs and says: "So, you don't have to feel insecure for Ava just because |
divorced you. If Ava needs my blood, | WILL be there. That's why I'm staying in the city." | blink, stunned at her
words. That's not what | meant. Is that why she thinks I'm here?
| totally messed up. | cto make peace, but everything about her is gulping at my reason. Her cold eyes, her
indifferent demeanor, the way that my words couldn't put a smile on her, nor put anger in her eyes.
She doesn't care aboutnow. That thought breaks a cold sweat on my back. Why?! | used to pray that she
wasn't in love with me, so she wouldn't target her dirty tricks on me. So what's wrong withnow?! "You are
the one forcingto marry five years ago, and now you are the one attackingwith a divorce! Is marriage
such a light thing to you?!"
"A light thing?!" Scar wheels on me, shootinga glare, her voice with a restrained shiver.
