Scarlett’s POV
Sebastian left after my outburst that night. | think I hurt him after all. Rip the band-aid, right? He never comes
again after that, and | had a week in peace. No annoying Ex, no Ava, and no news.
In the end, our news didn’t make it to the front page. Not even the last page or any page. Jack Fuller secretly
reached out to my cameraman. only on the second day, proposing to buy out the video. And though the
cameraman raised the price three times after a deal was made, Jack Fuller budged over and over again.
| know because he wasn’t just any cameraman, he was one of Adrian's best friends, a veteran from Afghanistan,
and now my bodyguard.
My homemade little video was sold at the price of fifty grand. I think | could push it even further than that, but
we already got what we wanted - - to test out Jack Fuller's attitude-
He went out on a limb to keep my noff the news, even though Ava would loved paintingas the worst
adopted sister of all time.
My family is definitely still out there, and for sreason, Jack Fuller is afraid of them!
Because he stolefrom my family? Or maybe he purchasedfrom them, and he doesn’t want his customer

Lucas didn’t want to take the money, but Adrian didn’t want the transaction to be recorded on my account.

“Three, two, one!” | count down before I pull open my door, and Ava almost falls over because she has her ear
on my door.
Huh. | knew she wouldn't wait for too long before coming for another battle after her dear Daddy bought out the
video with her worst image recorded, but | didn’t think she would actually put her ear against my door.
“The next tyou pull off shit like this, | don’t mind making another short movie for you,” | warn Ava, leaving
the door open.
Lucas jumps off the window frquietly, picking up his camera on his shoulder.
Instantly Ava behaves.
“I'm having a party at htonight,” Ava folds her arms, “and you are not invited.”
Lucas opens the cap of the camera.
“What?!” Ava fluffs at Lucas’s threatening move, “It’s MY party and | can’t even decide who to invite?!”
“I don’t WANT to be at your stupid party to begin with,” | roll my eye at her, “I'll stay in YOUR room, quietly. Don’t
cknocking.”

Falling off from the second floor won't be lethal to me, but definitely to the baby.
“I need to check if Jack Fuller has changed the password to his safe, and if he did, then | need to figure out the
password and find out what's changed inside-"
“I can do all that for you,” Lucas cuts in, “I'm here to protect you, remember?”
“But | also need to look for what he took from my mom,” | see
Sebastian as my enemy, but | know that man doesn’t lie. If he says that Jack Fuller took something from my
