050 Granny's Blessing Scarlett's

POV

"Your eyes are no longer following him around, and when they land on him, there is only a deep running sorrow

in there. The worst finally happened..." Granny lets out a long sigh, "I didn't want you to go through with the

wedding because | didn't want. this for you, my poor I guess in the end, | still failed to protect you."

"Granny...!" | murmur in shock. | never knew! Granny does see through everything, and to think we thought we

were successful in tricking her.

"He hurt you bad this time, didn't he?" Granny askscoldly, this tthe coldness is directed at Sebastian.

Somehow that warmsup more than anything.

She is Sebastian's family first, and she won't even be mine if | didn't blackmail her grandson. Yet when things

went wrong, she took my side without even a question. No family has ever done that for me.

But Sebastian's and my issue is not that simple. There isn't a clear right or wrong. He wanted Ava, | wanted him,

"You are going to divorce him, aren't you?" Granny suddenly asks. She didn't even need my answer when | was

still hesitating on what to say. She got everything from a look at me.

"So why did you object to him and Ava?" | divert the topic, feeling much lighter now the truth is out with Granny,

"She loves him, too."

"Does she?" Granny's eyes land on Sebastian and Ava coldly, who are talking happily together downstairs, "She

WANTS him, sure. He thinks of that as love, but that's not what makes one happy. Not like what you gave him."

| don't agree, but | hold my silence. It's not easy to love Ava, not to mention for years without any decay.

Sebastian has more love in him than | ever had. | only found little Jove in the dark world I lived in, and | can only

love a few that loveback. But he can extend love to a dirty little orphan he found in the woods.

| could never do that, and that's why | admire him. It's just unfortunate that we weren't meant to be together.

That's what our story is. Just a pure tragedy

continues her monologue, "There was this day when | visited your parents’. You two got into a fight and she

a difference.

"You tried to, didn't you?" Granny sees through me, "Words can be weak in front of emotions. He has to see

clearly on his own. It wouldn't matter even if I did, but | guess my silence cost you..."

| shake my head at Granny's sad look. It wasn't her fault. And like she said, | tried, and nothing would have

turned Sebastian against his treasure.

Granny says deeply: "It would be too selfish forto ask you to go on, so. You do what you need to do, my dear.

Nobody can keep saving another, especially when they don't want

to be saved. | hate to see him keep making the smistake, but | can only save him once."

| think Ava just got Granny's blessing, to be the second Fuller girl marrying Sebastian.
