Chapter 306: Solve The Puzzle Together

The silence that followed was awkward at best.

At first, Violet had wanted nothing more than to talk to him and clear the air between them, but now that her wish had been granted, Violet had no idea what to say.

"I’m sorry."

"I’m sorry."

They both said it at once, their eyes locking in surprise.

"Let me go first," Asher said.

"No," Violet shook her head. "Let me go first."

She drew in a steadying breath. "I’m sorry for lashing out at you. I was angry, but I should have given you the chance to explain before jumping to conclusions. So yeah, I’m really sorry."

"You don’t need to apologize, Violet. It was all my fault. If I hadn’t gone behind your back to investigate your parentage, we wouldn’t have fought at all." He paused, looking her right in the eyes. "I don’t like us fighting."

Immediately, Violet was reminded of the little boy she had seen in his memory, the one who stayed in bed at night, wishing for a different kind of miracle. Her heart clenched. She hadn’t meant to bring back that kind of pain for him.

There was no guarantee Asher wouldn’t push her buttons again, but Violet made up her mind right then. She would control her temper better from now on.

Asher looked at her, eyes dark and sincere. "I’m sorry for what I did. Would you find a place in your heart to forgive me, Violet Purple?"

There was a moment of silence as Violet studied him, right before a smile crossed her lips. It was not the teasing type, but a gentle one that was full of kindness.
