She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked by Nyx Rai

234 Goodbye, Sebastian

Scar will never forget the look on Sebastian's face when she announced that number. He knows, everything.

He knows that she figured out how much liquidity he has, he knows that it's a trap targeting his everything, and he knows...that she chose to kill him in this way, when she uttered that number.

There is a calmness of hit by a dead real desperation, with a hint of bitterness in his look.

The whole room is in silence, but unlike the asleep silence before, a frantic whispering is spreading in the room, all eyes on Sebastian. Only now they realize the dragging on was barely even a game, for the powers over their head.

Whatever Sebastian chooses to do, the residue won't land on them. They might come for the items, but the show is much more valuable, even to their levels.

What would he do? They want to know, and so does Scar.

Would he give up his love? The most valuable memory of his whole teenage years? The purest feelings a boy held for a girl with no dirt from the later life? Or would he hold on to that illusion, give out all he ever created for himself, and hate her for the rest of his life? The ring might worth that much for him before, but Scar is not sure now. Who is he ever bidding the ring for? Scar, who forced his hand and ruined his illusion for that girl? Or Ava, who lied to him his whole life and enjoyed his wealth as if granted?

Maybe that's why he has been fighting both Scar and Ava for the ring -- because he wants neither of them to have it.
