058 The Fencing Gemini

Scarlett’s POV

I do not see the “devil” Aurora paints Adrian Dunn as, at all.

It was actually a huge pleasure talking to him. When I first reached out to Adrian, all I knew about him was his “throne” of being Sebastian’s nemesis, AND the million. complaints on how “mean and petty” he was from Aurora.

Apparently she was in a play and he made fun of her make–up. He messed up her hair, and she fell when she tried to get back at him. Of course that made him laugh at her even more, and then he became Aurora’s enemy, and made it on every one of her blacklists.

I guess he grew out of the mean boy he was, opposite to Sebastian.

But the better he is to me, the more guilty I feel toward Aurora. I came to him because of our common enemy, but he wasn’t.

“You and Sebastian were best friends?!” I exclaim, my jaw on the ground. I never knew! Me! The biggest fan of Sebastian throughout these years, and yet I didn’t know! How?!

“We had a fall out…some years ago,” Adrian takes a shrug, looking indifferent, “that’s when the rumor about us being nemesis started. I mean, you know media. Between good friends grew apart and good friends turning into enemies, of course, they’d prefer the latter.”

I was 7, and that’s like, more than a decade ago!
