Scarlett's POV

Because of my special condition, the police didn't take me in, but just kept me under tight surveillance with two officers guarding my hospital ward.

Ava is not happy about it.

She wanted me to be charged with attempted murder. Actually, I think she wanted me on the chair the next day.

To be honest? I wish I could be charged with successful murder. I'm not living anymore. I'm just surviving, for a revenge that I see no hope of getting. I wasn't trying to kill her when I lost control and hurt her with the fruit knife. If I wasn't irritated into that and actually had my right mind, I wouldn't have missed.

I wanted her dead.

In that sense, they SHOULD lock me up.

It took me a moment to realize that Sebastian is talking to me.

He has been coming to visit me every day, ever since I stabbed his Ava. Surprising. He hadn't got time for me after I almost died with out child, but he is free to shed crocodile tears now.

I turn to look at him, silently.
