She Approved the Split He Fell Apart Novel

077 Sebastian’s Choice

Sebastian’s POV

He’s got me.

How am I supposed to make such a choice?!

It doesn’t matter who I name because he just wants to drag me into the hell he is living in — whose sky and soil are made of guilt and regret of a loved one gone forever. Whichever of them I choose, I leave here today with the blood of one of them on my hands.

And I can’t let either of them die, not on my watch.

Jim is preparing the air cushion downstairs as we speak. His men surround us in the dark corners, and they can take Liam Ryan down any second. But not when he has his hands on their chairs. It’s too dangerous One wrong move and it’s three lives over the edge.

I came here, ready to give everything, but I didn’t think he was so far beyond reach

that only human lives seemed to be able to feed the wrath in his chest

What do I do?

“Name your choice, Sebastian Knight,” Liam Ryan curves his lips into a devil smirk, pressing the back of the chairs, leaving them sitting on only the two hind legs.

Scarlets out a scared gasp, grasping the edge of the chair tightly with tears pouring out of her. She’s scared of heights. Seeing her tremble under his hand, my chest twists in pain as a sour anger bursts out of me.

She’s suffering because of me.

I don’t think I did anything wrong protecting Justin, but even if that’s not true, Scar didn’t do anything to the Ryans, at all!

“You want to punish me?! I’ll jump with you!” I squeeze the words out of me, more taken by anger than fear, “They are innocent of this! Let them go and I’ll fucking jump off with you!”

Liam Ryan cocks his eyebrows but only for a second: “You think I’m that stupid?! I won’t believe your words, and I don’t want you to die! I want you to live the rest of

I your days in torment, you fucking asshole!”

Fuck!

“Choose!” Liam Ryan pulls the chairs further back. His arms are trembling at the weight of the two girls, and their backs are in the air, supported only by him, “Or both. of them go down!”

“I choose her!” I blurt, pointing at Ava.

He thinks I’m in love with Ava. If I choose to save Scar, he would not hesitate to drop Ava; but if I choose to save Ava, there is a slight chance that he would hesitate to save the girl “I love” for me.

After all, it’s my pain that he is after.

“Did you hear that?” Liam Ryan turns to Scar, asking with a frantic smile.

Scar doesn’t answer him. She doesn’t look at him, nor me. She closes her eyes with tears flowing down her face.

She thinks my choice comes from my heart, I know. I don’t know how I can ever convince her otherwise, but I can’t risk any of their lives, just to clean my name. I can only stand there, and watch my words breaking her heart.

She still cares about my choice, does that mean that I still have a chance with her?

“Okay, as you wish,” Liam Ryan says as he suddenly lets go of Ava’s chair. I jump forward the moment I realize his move and grab her cha

just in the last second. He turns and steps a food on my back. I can’t move, and I can’t let go. I feel him bending down and raising his arm.

His knife!

If I don’t dodge, then his knife would go in me! But if I do, then I drop Ava!

In that moment, I hear a light sound of something fast breaking the air. Only after a second does Liam Ryan groan and fall down to the side, his knife out of his hand, bumping on the ground before falling off the edge.

He is shot!

“Ahhhhh!” Ava lets out a fierce scream, “It cut me! I’m dying! Help! Help!”

“Calm down, it’s a slight braze on your arm, you are fine!” I shout at her, trying to pull her up, “Stop struggling! I can’t hold on much longer!”

I push up as I pull Ava’s chair back onto the edge, pulling away from Liam Ryan. He lies on the ground with his frantic eyes pasted on me, anger and desperation in his

eyes.

“Good for you, Sebastian Knight!” Liam Ryan growls, “You made your choice!”

He rolls aside and kicks Scar’s chair hard.

“Ahhh!” Scar shouts, but I can’t make it to her in time.

“No!” I jump over,

in that moment my mind is all blank.
