"So, you have been following her!" Lara was still reeling from the shocking revelation, struggling to process what she heard.
Adelynn nodded firmly. "Yes. And I discovered that the renowned designer Haris was her ex-boyfriend. She dumped him to marry Luis Bass."
A cold dread settled over Lara as she processed the information. Haris, a name she had known from school. Though they weren't particularly close, she knew he was one of Silas's friends.
"Haris is Silas's friend," Lara whispered with a pale face. "The recent accident... it's put him into a coma."
Adelynn's expression darkened. "The night he had the accident, I saw him arguing with Maya," she concluded.
As the coffee and croissants arrived at their table, Lara and Adelynn's intense conversation paused. The aroma of freshly baked pastries filled the air, providing a momentary distraction from the heavy revelations.
