058 The Fencing Gemini

Scarlett's POV

I do not see the "devil" Aurora paints Adrian Dunn as, at all.

It was actually a huge pleasure talking to him. When I first reached out to Adrian, all I knew about him was his "throne" of being Sebastian's nemesis, AND the million. complaints on how "mean and petty" he was from Aurora.

Apparently she was in a play and he made fun of her make-up. He messed up her hair, and she fell when she tried to get back at him. Of course that made him laugh at her even more, and then he became Aurora's enemy, and made it on every one of her blacklists. I guess he grew out of the mean boy he was, opposite to Sebastian.

But the better he is to me, the more guilty I feel toward Aurora. I came to him because of our common enemy, but he wasn't.

"You and Sebastian were best friends?!" I exclaim, my jaw on the ground. I never knew! Me! The biggest fan of Sebastian throughout these years, and yet I didn't know! How?!

"We had a fall out...some years ago," Adrian takes a shrug, looking indifferent, "that's when the rumor about us being nemesis started. I mean, you know media. Between good friends grew apart and good friends turning into enemies, of course, they'd prefer the latter." "How many years?" I demand. I had a crush on Sebastian since I was 7, and that's like, more than a decade ago! What he said doesn't sound like a decade ago.

"Hmm..." Adrian hums, only to "forget" about the question. He could call me a beautiful lady, but THIS question he can't answer?

"I knew Sebastian since primary school," I narrow my eyes at him suspiciously, "and I have never seen you two together, ever." "Ohh, yeah," Adrian seemed relieved when I explained my question, "I don't want to be seen with him, not after he turned stupid. "?" I blink.

Adrian rolls his eyes when he mentions Gabriel's
