Keeley had a little time before the driver was going to come pick her up so she headed to a nearby café and bought herself a cherry cheese danish. Now that the nerves were gone, she was starving and she was technically eating for three.
She sat down and munched on her treat in a good mood. She passed her dissertation, bought Aaron a little more time with his father, and now she could actually focus on enjoying Christmastime.
It was a little unbelievable Alistair hadn't figured out that Bethany Carlisle didn't exist yet. Everyone involved in the charade had played their parts too well.
Trying to think from Alistair's perspective…his son had been acting out for the first time ever so there had to be a reason for it. Being in love was a pretty good reason.
But he had no idea who Aaron was actually in love with. He must be thinking that Aaron's behavior of late was for Bethany's sake.
