076 Condemned To Death

Scarlett’s POV

I close my eyes in desperation.

I really should have told him that I have his baby in me. He might still choose to sacrifice me, but he wouldn’t do it this decisively without even a pause.

For a moment I really want to lash out like Liam Ryan did. I want to struggle and shout and curse and say to hell with everyone and drag everything to hell with me. In that moment I feel Liam Ryan. He didn’t even care about a 90 billion worth company. All he wanted was a solace of justice. He wanted only fair treatment.

What did I do wrong in all this? Should I have not loved the kind boy who saved me all these years? Should I have left the city when Mom “needed” me? Should I have told him the truth five years ago?

I sort of put together Sparrow’s story in Liam Ryan’s rumble here and there. Basically, Justin mistook Annie for Sparrow, and just like how I found out about the truth when Justin proposed to his Ava, Sparrow stood up and told the truth.

Except no one listened, just like how I knew it would go if I did the same thing.

I’m glad she didn’t get her way and marry her Sebastian, because that’s a fate worse than death. To be tormented by the guy you love the most, only to be devasted over and over again until you forget how to keep up hope.

Even if I tried with the truth, her fate would have been what I would get.
