Damn Aria
Who did she think she was, trying to compete with her for Kane’s attention?!
She pulled out her phone and walked to a private corner, quickly dialing a number with harely controlled rage.
Aria walked to the parking garage, not expecting Rowan to follow her with obvious concern.
She turned around, somewhat surprised “Rowan?
Rowan stopped in front of her and shrugged his shoulders. “I believe you. Aria. You’re not that kind of person.”
She hesitated for a moment, touched by his unwavering support. “Why do you believe me?”
“I trust Prof. Morrison’s judgment,” Rowan said, crossing his arms. “Kenneth never misjudges character, and neither do L especially when it comes to identifying woman with questionable intentions.”
Rowan had encountered countless female admirers, even earning the nickname “friend of women in his circle. He had seen all kinds of manipulation tactics, and those who tried to deceive him usually ended up exposing themselves completely.
Aria was successfully amused. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome, Aria,” Rowan said, moving closer with genuine concern. “Do you need any help dealing
with the
this situation?”
Aria looked up and met his sincere gaze.
Suddenly, the man who appeared not far behind them had a distinctly cold tone as he interrupted.
“Is Dr. Sterling interested in her?”
Aria knew who it was without looking, but she didn’t want to turn around and face Kane again.
