Seraphina’s offer sounded sincere on the surface, as if she genuinely wanted to help, and she made sure Kane could clearly see bet apparent generosity.
Aria simply smiled with cold amuseusent. “No need. The truth will come to light EVENTUALLY.”
She left after delivering that pointed regionse.
Seraphina’s expression stiffened slightly as she sensed the implicit the rat in Aria’s words.
She turned to Kane with a look of vulnerability. “Kane, if I had known that Dr. Ashworth disliked me so intensely, I wouldn’t have taken this position at the hospital…”
Kane calmly withdrew his attention from where Aris had disappeared and picked up Jasper. “You should stay away from her in the future.”
The words were directed at Seraphina.
Seraphina paused in confusion. “Kane, are you… defending Dr. Ashworth?
Was he actually protecting that woman?
Kane’s brow furrowed slightly.
“She is
is very manipulative. If you get too close to her, you’ll be the one who suffers. I’m saying this for your own protection.”
Seraphina beard this, the gloom that had gathered in her heart vanished, and she no longer worried.
Even if that bitch Aria managed to seduce Jaxson temporarily, so what?
She had various rid of the trouble Aria and become the future Luna of
to get
Ravencrest pack!
It was late at night when Aria was awakened by sounds coming from outside the bedroom
The originally dark bedroom was now bathed in dim amber light from the hallway.
She was facing away from
the door and opened her eyes to see a shadow moving closer to the bed.
She closed her eyes and pretended to remain asleep.
In the past, she used to wait up for Kane to return, staying awake all night hoping to catch even a glimpse of him
Waiting for hours, growing tired from waiting, becoming disappointed from the endless hoping.
But from now, she would no longer waited for him.
Kane stood by the bed for several long moments, then removed his suit jacket and tie before heading to the bathroom.
Aria maintained the same sleeping position throughout, not moving und Kane finished his shower and emerged from the bathroom.
Kane walked straight up to her.
