She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked by Nyx Rai

Scarlett's POV

I have to admit, Oliver Scott is a good actor alright.

I didn't add too much twist in the movie for Adrian's role. In the story, he is just an admirer who is fun, teasing with genuine love. Flat characters like this don't entice the audience that much. He is not a necessary role for the plot, but a hidden bonus in the movie just for me. But Oliver Scott made him luring.

He painted a bad boy who is annoying, who is feared and worshipped by his peers, who does things his own way, and who is the opposite of the white knight. But even so, he doesn't come off as a villain, but as a deeper character with many layers.

If the love between the boy and the girl who he saved is a sweet cheesecake, then his feelings toward "Scar" is like a bowl of spicy buffalo wings -- dangerous yet luring, scary yet enticing.

"I know I'm not exactly what you imagine for this role," Oliver Scott leaves the scene, walking up to me, "but I convinced the director to show you what I can bring out of that character. I see potential in him, and I think he can be more than just a supporting role." He surely did. He almost made his love story as heavy as my main characters.

"Hmm..." I hesitate. I admit I don't like him because of Damian Vanderbilt, but that's not a legit reason to block him on his career when he is the right person, "I guess--"

"You are the little wolf, aren't you? If the evil you do is eating lambs, then I'll be setting traps for you."

He squats down by my chair like a big dog, his chin on his forearms which are folded on the arm of my chair as he looks up at me. I flinch back into my seat, nervous at the bright grin he gives me -- he never even met Adrian, and yet he not only saw through my story, but he knows how to give me exactly the look Adrian did!

This man is good!

Fine, I'm sold. I might not like him, but he is the right one for the role.
