She Approved the Split He Fell Apart

101 Ava’s Fear

Scarlett’s POV

I don’t think she is going to like what Ava has to say.

I was surprised that Jack Fuller seemed to know Ava’s true color, but not for long. He has always been a calculating fox and I doubt he’d let anyone fool him, not even his own daughter.

But I don’t think Mom knows about it at all. If she thinks Ava is her angelic tame daughter, then she really believes that. She is a devout bellever. And as horrible as Jack Fuller might be, there is one thing I can’t deny of him – he loves his wife.

I guess I shouldn’t feel bad for Mom. I should envy her. She might know all the truth, but she is happy, living in the little illusional bubble where everything is kind, good, and alright. She doesn’t have to feel bad for keeping a little girl at home just to be her daughter’s blood vessel because her husband told her the little girl is an orphan who needed help; she doesn’t have to know that her own daughter broke the ugly truth to the orphan that she was adopted, because Jack Fuller determined it was an accident no matter what I said; she doesn’t have to feel bad for trapping me here as a prisoner, because maybe not as much as she loves Ava, she also “cares” about me, and that makes what she did a desperate try of a mother to keep all her kids around her.

Nothing evil.

the ugly truth came out. I was devastated to realize that no one in the family ever loved me, and yet I couldn’t say a harsh thing to this innocent woman. Sometimes I wonder
