She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked by Nyx Rai

Ava's POV

I can't believe it worked so smoothly. I always knew how to get to her, from luring her to escape home to making her push me into the water. She writes all her thoughts on her face. I knew mentioning the necklace would rile her up, and she thought I would physically hurt her. I'm not as stupid as she is! She did exactly what I thought she would: she pushed me into a lake in front of Sebastion.

Mom sent me to a hot shower when Dad went to deal with the parasite who pushed me into the lake.

Ever since she told Sebastian about the misunderstanding ten years ago, he has been putting a distance between us. He wouldn't come to hang out even if I begged, he wouldn't return my texts, and he even asked his secretary to answer my phone calls! I never even said I was the girl he saved, I simply confirmed that it was mine when he asked about the yellow skirt.

He hates bullies, and this will definitely drive a wedge between them.

I know he is mad at me, but he is not ghosting me and that means there is still room to turn this around. He spent the following ten years loving me! How could all that come from only one afternoon from ten years ago?

Even with a slight hint of her bullying me, he would turn against her. This time he watched her pushing me into a lake. All it takes is a phone call and he would come to me.
