The Truth And Something About Sebastian

Olivia slowly turned to look her daughter in the eyes. She slowly grasped Seraphina's hands and patted them slowly. 

"After we found out about what was going on with you at your school, we were furious and wanted so badly to do something about it." Olivia stopped talking and took a deep breath. 

"When we got to the principal's office and told him everything, he only offered to apologize on Ethan's behalf because according to him, nothing could be done about it because he was scared of Ethan's parents.

Your father in annoyance started to create a scene in the office so we got forced out. We decided to leave the school and go straight to report to the police.

We got there and laid our complaint on Ethan Sullivan and before we knew it, we were surrounded by three men in black suits who said that their boss wanted to have a word with us. 

We were both confused, we didn't want to leave but the police officers said to, so we followed the men into their car.

They took us to a very big company, Unity Quench Co. It was the Sullivan's. 

They led us to Ethan's father's office and that was where it all started to go wrong" Olivia said

"What happened there, mother?" Seraphina asked.

"He introduced himself as Edward Sullivan and then offered us money," Olivia said and watched the expression on her daughter's face change to a deep down.

"Your dad was furious and confronted him but then it backfired and he started to threaten us"

"And then you guys just gave up?" Seraphina asked in an unpleasant tone

"No Seraphina. We fought hard for you but the Sullivans were more powerful than us. They held a lot of power in the school and even the police station, the whole city of Havenwood knew and worshipped them" Olivia stated. 

Seraphina gasped out, heartbroken. 

"They threatened to make our lives miserable if we didn't let what Ethan did to you die down, but we didn't just bend to their threats, we kept fighting but then your father suddenly got fired from his job and so did I.

I'm sure you remember that day.

Ethan's father made that happen, we lost our jobs because of him, and that's how powerful he was. We had no option" Olivia said as she started to cry out again.

"Then how come you guys didn't tell me about all of this? All this while I believed you and Father just left me to suffer on my own and did nothing. " Seraphina said sadly

"What else did he do? Did Ethan's father also bribe you guys to keep shut?" Seraphina asked nonchalantly.

Olivia was embarrassed as she gave a little nod.

"Did they also give you guys money to force me into marrying Ethan?" Seraphina pressed on.

Olivia nodded again. 

Seraphina gave a shaky sigh, she was beyond hurt and all she needed at this moment was Sebastian. 

Slowly, Seraphina stood up from the couch.

She had to be with Sebastian, she felt like only Sebastian could console her the way she wanted to be consoled.

"I..I can't be here" Seraphina stated and quickly walked away. 

Olivia just watched her go, She continued to cry.

It was dark outside, and Seraphina took several deep breaths. 

So much drama in just one day, it was all just too much for her to bear. 

With slow steps, Seraphina started to walk over to Sebastian's house.

Hoping that Sebastian wouldn't be mad with her sudden visit.

Everything her mother had told her about Ethan's father only fueled her quest for revenge even more.

As she walked on, she wondered how strange it was that she suddenly felt fine and at ease. The thought of Sebastian and taking revenge on the Sullivans made her mood and energy skyrocket to another level, in a very good way.

A little smile carved her face as she finally arrived at Sebastian's house. 

She took several deep breaths and said a little prayer before finally ringing the doorbell. 

A few seconds later, the door flung open with Sebastian wearing Mickey Mouse pajamas, he looked appalled.

"What are you doing here?" He asked in a whisper, quickly looking around. 

He really did not want Anyone to see him and Seraphina together, it would only sabotage their plan for revenge. 

"I just...." Seraphina was about to say before Sebastian suddenly dragged her into the house. 

Inside, Sebastian stared at Seraphina with a little obvious frown on his face while Seraphina just stood there with a little feigned smile, she felt guilty.

"I'm sorry. I know the deal we had but I just...I just needed someone to talk to" Seraphina quickly said when she could no longer bear Sebastian's frowny gaze on her. 

"About what?" Sebastian asked. 

"My mom told me everything, about how Ethan's father threatened them and gave them money to keep them shut" 

"Oh." Sebastian looked surprised 

"So they did try to fight for you" He stated 

"I guess so" Seraphina replied

Sebastian smiled 

"Then it's okay. That's all that matters" he said. 

Seraphina smiled back.

"So, mickey mouse pajamas, that's unexpected of you.." Seraphina teased with a mocking look 

Sebastian gasped out with a little laugh.

"What?. It's cute and comfortable" He said

"Oh really. Do you have a spare?" Seraphina asked with a slight smile

"Well, I do. But why do you ask?" 

"Because I'm sleeping here tonight," Seraphina said and quickly walked away

Sebastian suddenly started to cough out, he was shocked by Seraphina's sudden revelation. 

He quickly followed her but it was already too late to stop her from entering into the room no one was supposed to see. 

Seraphina covered her opened mouth with her hands in total shock.

The room was covered with pictures of Evelyn.

She turned to face Sebastian standing helplessly behind her.

After his fiancèe, Evelyn had passed away, he turned his study room into a room filled with her pictures and some of her stuff, it was the only way he felt like she was still here with him. He was having a hard time moving on. 

Slowly, Seraphina wrapped her arms around Sebastian and gave him a hug, gently patting his back. She felt sad for him but at the same time understood how hard it must be for him. 

"I'm sorry you had to go through all of that." She said softly. 

"It's okay now" She added, continuously patting him gently. 

Sebastian closed his eyes and wrapped his arms around Seraphina too. He took a deep breath, feeling at ease.
