192 Scott's Fist


Sebastian's POV

Scarlett was hurt.

The security system company found her after the alarm was triggered. But there was no sign of intrusion -- even the alarm was triggered because a lamp was thrown through the window, from inside. Apparently, Scar cut her wrist and fell off the stairs.

She was taken to the hospital when Miller got there, the same hospital Ava was in no less. All he saw was the pool of blood by the stairs. I couldn't bear hearing his report over the phone, but I dared not to miss anything either.

The walk from Ava's ward to the emergency building was the longest hell I had to go through, and I would rather die a thousand times just to turn back time.

"Where is she?!" I demand Miller the moment I get there, only to notice that he isn't the only one waiting by the emergency room.

Damian Vanderbilt.

The girls hus together, trying to comfort each other. The man sits there on the bench with a sullen look, spouting out a dark aura. He stands up and charges at me the moment he sees me.

"Where were you?!" He growls, his bloodshot eyes trembling at burning fury. If he was angry this afternoon for Ava, he is now beyond ration, like some mad animal, "Where were you in the middle of the night?! Leaving your wife alone at home, bleeding on the floor?! Did you know that she crawled several meters with a broken leg to call for help, and she had to call Lilith, her friend who lives miles away, to save her life?!!!"
