She Accepted Divorce, He Panicked

099 Personal Hell

Scarlett's POV

Adrian remained silent as we settled into the car and drove out of the parking lot.

I wonder if I had told him too much.

I guess when someone has their partiality for you, then it becomes irresistible to pour out all the grief to them. I start to understand Ava better.

But he is not mine. He is Aurora's, and I'm on my way to finding my real family who I can cry to without a burden.

I never wanted to admit this, but I envy Ava, a lot. I envy how she could be loved by so many, and be so capricious without a worry, when even trying my best, I couldn't get a caring look from the same family and friends she has. Would my parents love me just as much as the Fullers love her?

If I was born with such an awful disease but by the side of my real parents, would they also go all the way to buy a slave home just to make sure I would be safe? I don't want them to be this evil, but I want everything else the Fullers gave Ava.

I want a family that would care whether I was happy or sad, too. Not just a father who would buy me a luxury car in case I wouldn't be there for his daughter next time she needs blood.

"..." Adrain tries to talk, but fails to as we go up the twirling road from the parking lot to the ground, "I understand how you feel - I mean, I can't imagine how horrible it has been for you-I-I'm just saying, I'll help you leave the city, if that's what you decide to do. I wish I could go with you-tsk..."

He clicks his tongue, rubbing his hair in frustration, deeply bothered.

I burst into laughter. He and Aurora! They truly are a pair who deserve each other, "You know? Aurora said the same to me when she found out, too! I laugh at him with a teasing wink, "You two are so alike. I soooo wish I could confess to her on your behalf!" Adrian shoots me a plaintive glance, failing to laugh at my joke.NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

They ARE alike. As kind as each other. As adventurous and righteous, too.

It's My family issue, and he already knows I'm not the girl who stole his heart. Yet he still cares, and is bothered as if it was him who was wronged. I'll always hold this valuable kindness in my heart.

"Ugh, it's Sebastian's car," Adrian glances at the rare mirror, his teeth clenched, "I swear to God, if he is here to take you to Ava-!"

"Ohh, he might be here to give me the divorce papers!" I turn to look back, watching Sebastian's car following us slowly, "He said he signed them-"

"Well, he can mail them!" Adrian hits on the gas hard and our car flies forward like a roaring monster Adrian definitely is right now, "I might punch him in the face if I have to talk to him now!"

"Okay, sure, but you should know, I might throw up on your car if you do that again..." I grip the chair as i paste myself on the seat nervously, "I get car sick real easily."

"Don't underestimate me," Adrian rolls his eyes cockily, "You are okay when Aurora drives, then you will be in my car. I can lose him without any of those fancy stuff!"

To be honest, I was nervous at first. Aurora drives steadily for me, but I have experienced her racing, and I'm pretty sure that took half of my life.

But Adrian wasn't joking

We didn't lose any of our speed, but we were faster than most of the cars in the traffic flow, AND I felt no shift at all. What causes carsick are mostly speeding up, breaking, and occasionally a fast turn because the inertia messes up the inner ear balance. I did not feel any of those.

I can't afford it right now, but if I'm super rich one day, I'll hire the king of our traditional newspaper to be my personal driver!

Sebastian's car was out of our sight halfway to the hospital. I want the file, but I don't want to see him when Ava is in the same room.

"You don't have to come with," I tell Adrian when he comes out of the car with me. He frowns reluctantly, but I can't show my hands to Jack Fuller: 1 don't want Jack Fuller to know that you are helping me."

I have to face my personal hell alone, hopefully, for the very last time.
