195 Long Awaited

Scarlett's POV

"Is it true?" I ask Sebastian.

He avoids my question: "I will look into this, I promise!"

In that second all sound fade away. I can't hear anything and I don't see any one. No one but the man who I loved for over a decade. The man who saved me once, who said that he loved me and wanted another chance with me. The man who was telling me how excited he was about the baby he gave me.

"Are you going to be the witness for her alibi?" I ask him, my voice shaking. Anger and disbelief turned my voice into a restrained whisper, "She, MURDERED, our child! And you are telling me you are taking HER side? Really? Sebastian Knight?!" "I'm not taking her side--"

"It, was, her!" I burst out, glaring into his eyes, "The alarm system didn't go off when she barged into our house; she didn't steal anything valuable and she went straight to me! And do you know why she could do all this? Because you fucking let her! Did you really not know that I was pregnant? Were you trying to get close to me just for this plan?!"

What's he hurt about?! He wanted his Ava! He chose his Ava over me, over our child! He never wanted the child, and now I lost him! He said he loved me and he said he would choose me and he said he believed me! All fucking lies! He just "had to go and see Ava" and "happened" to be in her ward when a random robber sneaked into our house with such high skills that the best security system failed to catch a scent?!
