She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked by Nyx Rai

Scarlett's POV

I asked Sebastian to come to the party with me. Well, I told Sebastian about it, and he tagged along against my suggestion.

"Since when have you been interested in disco bars?" Sebastian tries to hide his impatience. Effort in vain. He prefers quiet ones.
