"Why don't you ask about Keara?" Aiden was sure Anya also heard the part when he talked about Keara. He felt that there was a misunderstanding that Anya did not question him anything about Keara.
Why didn't Anya ask him about Keara? Because Anya didn't want to hear that name come out of Aiden's mouth. She didn't want to hear those hurtful words straight from Aiden's mouth. She better keep quiet.
"I'll pretend I didn't hear it. If Keara returns, I can give her my current place. I will not disturb you." As she said it, Anya's voice trembled a little. She looked away from Aiden, not wanting to look into the man's eyes.
Aiden's eyes became deep and sharp when he heard that. His hand lifted, holding Anya's chin so that his wife would look at him. Maybe because of the resentment he felt, his hands unconsciously exerted a little force.
"It hurts..." Anya's eyes turned red.
