Chapter 97 Will You Join Me?

Hayden tossed his phone aside. "Aurora, I know what I've done hurt you, and I want to make amends for the mistakes I've made."

"Amends? How do you intend to make amends?" Aurora raised an eyebrow at him.

That was why Aurora found her college courses a breeze, having already completed them during high school with Hayden.

Hayden, the successor to the Alvarez family, had been strict with himself from a young age. Aurora had thought he was just diligent, unlike other wealthy heirs.
