章節 290: Do you care that I might bully your ex-boyfriend?

Arwen paused at his words, her eyes locking onto his, slightly confused and slightly anticipative. She searched for answers in his gaze, her mind swirling with thoughts she couldn't quite piece together. 

Under her gaze like that, Aiden stepped closer, closing the already small distance between them. His hand moved slowly, reaching out to brush away the hair that was layering the side of her face before cupping her cheek. 

Her breath hitched at his touch, warmth spreading from his palm to her skin. Her heart stuttered in her chest, betraying the calm she was trying to maintain. "What does that mean?" she asked, her voice soft but laced with curiosity. 

"Why?" he asked, his voice low and deliberate. "Is it hard to believe?" 

She didn't know what to say.
