247 The Golden Boy

"You want to meet early?" Scar glances at her phone to make sure the caller is indeed Damian, "Sure thing, but how early can dinner be?"

She's a bit surprised that Damian would move their dinner plan forward, but considering how he has been making effort to build a connection, she persuaded herself. "Authur, could you--?"

"Yes, Miss Green," Authur answers swiftly, "After you deliver the card, I will drive you right over."

Scar: "..."

This time she's really not trying to dodge that bullet! Didn't he hear that it was Damian Vanderbilt who--... Whatever.

Standing in front of Sebastian's new building, Scar is still grumbling Silco's name, along with his evil loyal driver, Author. Sebastian's new building is not the same as before - the modern design of Z-house as its own symbol. This time it's just a normal building, low-key to the extreme, considering its owner's usual luxurious style.

A sour wave washes Scar's heart.

Kind and gentle, Sebastian was never low-key. He was the shining prince of the city, the only heir of the Knight's empire, the golden boy of the fashion world. The man wouldn't leave the house without his hair sprayed to THE right angle, and his shoes black without a speck of dust dimming their shine.

But now? Now he is stuck in a small, ordinary building, wearing a wrinkled shirt with his tie loose to the side, dark circles under his eyes-

Pausing at Sebastian's office door, Scar can't bring herself to knock when she sees the man who has fallen from his throne.

"Scar?!" Sebastian shoots a sudden glance to his door as if felt something, only to yelp in a pleasant surprise, "What brought you here? Come in, please!"
