Chapter 4
Asher's lace froze when he heard Elara's words. He wasn't about to a
argue anymore.
"If that's how you feel, fine. Walk your ass home," he said, completely unfazed, not a shred of guilt in his voice. Then he turned to his father. "Drive"
Jefferson glanced at Elara, then at Asher, remembering how Elara usually was with his son. No matter how ugly it gets, they'll make up in a couple of days. She's always easygoing, he figured.
With that in mind, Jefferson shrugged off Elara's dramatic reaction, started the car, and drove away.
Elara stood there, stunned by Asher's nerve. "Fucking assholes! she fumed inwardly.
People nearby snickered at the scene. "Serves her right. She was acting like a total bitch, they whispered, amused by her
situation.
To everyone's surprise, Elara laughed too-though it was a bitter, angry laugh. She fished out a phone-Asher's ancient, clunky Nokia. She'd actually traded her brand-new Apple 3, a birthday gift, for this piece of junk, all to spare his damn pride. The thought felt absurd now.
Still, she used the phone to call her father. A few minutes later, the same Maybach that had just left rolled back to the entrance. Jefferson stepped out, his face stormy. It was clear he'd been chewed out. "Miss Kensington," he said, his voice stiff, forced.
Elara didn't miss a beat. "You really screwed up this time, didn't you?" she said coldly
Jefferson threw a quick glance toward the car, where Asher was helping Daphne out.
Daphne, looking totally caught off guard, glanced nervously at Elara. "Elara, I know you don't like me, but there's no need to take it out on Asher. He's always been good to you," she said, trying to sound reasonable but clearly rattled.
Asher cut her off sharply. "Don't. Say. A word to her, he snapped, making it clear that Elara had gone too far for his liking.
Elara didn't bother responding to either of them. Instead, she slid into the back seat, rolling down the window just before they drove off. She looked at Asher one last time, her smile calm, but full of finality. "Goodbye."
As they pulled away from the school, Jefferson stole a glance at Elara through the rearview mirror
Her icy calm caught him off guard, and he felt compelled to say something. "Miss Kensington, couples fight all the time. Don't take it to heart. Asher will apologize later. But without a ride, that poor guy might have to take the bus. Who knows how long he'll be stuck out there."
