We choose peace

"When did this start, Ruby?" He asked Ruby rather than Hailey, who was standing close to him.

"Well," Ruby shrugged." My colleague here said she had decided to promote peace among us, and we agreed to start treating you romantically," she explained with a smile curving her lips with her arms crossed above her chest.

Aidan smiled coldly and averted his gaze to Hailey, who had let go of him since he didn't give in to her hug.

"What exactly do you want, Hailey?" He asked in a harsh tone with a grin as he glared at her.

"Hey, Aidan, do not be hard on her. She has agreed to be peaceful. I know she has hurt you before, but please forgive her." Ruby pleaded on Hailey's behalf." And again, she had promised to get your cars back from her father." she added.

"I wasn't talking to you, Ruby. You aren't her mouthpiece, allow her to speak for herself because she isn't a kid." he scoffed at Ruby before averting his gaze to Hailey again.
