Chapter 15
At 6 PM, Briar stepped out of the house in her usual sporty outfit with her old backpack slung over one shoulder.
Right at the gate, she ran into Edgar coming home from work. He looked completely drained, shoulders slumped and steps slow like he was dragging hề body forward.
Seeing how beat–down he looked actually lifted Briar’s mood a little.
Edgar shot her a weak glare but didn’t say a word. He didn’t even bother asking where she was going–it was obvious he was still fuming about what had happened at the company.
Briar acted like she didn’t e even see him and kept walking. If she hadn’t already made dinner plans with Ashton, she might’ve stuck around just to mess with Edgar a little more.
Just as she stepped out onto the main road, Ashton’s sleek car pulled up like clockwork.
The window rolled down, revealing his handsome face. “Hop in, Briar,” he said casually, like it was something they did every day.
“Alright,” she said, a slight twitch at the corner of her lips. She slid into the passenger seat without hesitation.
The car didn’t stay parked long. It pulled away smoothly before anyone from the Jennings family had the chance to notice.
Well–almost anyone. Camden had just gotten back from the plastic surgery clinic and missed the whole thing. But his driver caught a glimpse of the woman with long hair getting into a luxury car with a license plate he definitely recognized.
He thought about saying something but held his tongue after seeing Camden’s sour expression. Better not get involved.
In the car, Ashton asked, “What kind of food do you like? How about Zakian cuisine?”
Briar loved spicy food, so she answered right away, “Sounds perfect.”
