CHAPTER 48 The Old Marcus

  Ella's POV

  My head didn't even wrap around what happened. She freaking set me up! And I didn't even notice before I slammed shut around me and she ran of crying. Leaving me eye to eye with a fuming Ryan. Our eyes met and the silence grew thic and heavy between, his lip twitched but as he drew his breath, Martha came barging in with my coffee and a sealed box filled with fruit.

  "Here sweety, I packed some… Ooooh… Ryan! No arguing before breakfast and coffee!"

  Grateful for the distraction I rushed up to her and grabbed it with a smile and thank you. She gave me a slight wink before I turned and almost jogged to the other door. I don't have energy or patient for this today!

  "Aria! Stop! We are not done with this!"

  "This was never our conversation in the first place! Bye!"
