She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked by Nyx Rai

212 The Heartless Mom

Scar was already at the Fullers when Sebastian made it.

The last time Sebastian was with her in Jack Fuller's living room was five years ago now, yet he feels like it was only yesterday. It might have something to do with the fact that he barely lived a day since. Just surviving. Sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed elegantly, Scar swings her foot lightly with an indifferent look. She is in a business set: white, tight blouse and straight short skirt. A pair of high heels, of course indicating one thing: She's here for serious business.

Just not the kind Jack Fuller looks forward to. That much is obvious because the owner of the living room sits right across Scar with every line of the muscle on his face stretched tight, as if facing a cannibal monster. He is scared, and he ought to be. Though Scar wouldn't claim it, she's still a Vanderbilt.

Damian has all but thrown everything the Fuller had into fire in the past five years. Ava and her dad did little to improve Z-House's situation, sure. But they weren't the only ones to be blamed for the corruption. The fear in Jack Fuller's eyes is genuine, and it's the fear of that name: Vanderbilt.

If there is one thing Sebastian never seems to understand about Jack Fuller, is how he went and attempted at Scar's life even after he sensed that Damian was onto something.

Unless, he didn't want to, but something forced his hand. Or someone.

Sebastian's eyes land on Ava.

Ava stares at him with sorrow and alert in her eyes, unlike usual. That's so abnormal that even Gabriel notices something and nudges her in the arm: "Told you he would come, didn't I?" Ava's lips wiggle, but in the end failed to form a smile.
