"Yes. But I asked for your father's permission to see you...talk to you for one last time," Briony felt her heart skip a beat. She lowered her gaze trying to avoid those dark gray eyes that seemed like they were talking to her. He had already asked Rowan's permission to talk to her just so he could apologize but Rowan didn't allow him to.
Looks like Aldrich asked again and this time, Rowan did permit him.
"Are you going back to General Oblonsky? Well, that was a silly question because they won't let you," Briony chuckled awkwardly. She felt him move and started to walk towards her.
Every step he takes makes her pulse pick up a rate.
"No. There is no point going back there. And besides, I promised your father that I will never associate myself with Dario anymore," Aldrich said and then he sat on the hood of the car though he kept a good distance between him and Briony.
