Curious, he stopped in his tracks with his eyebrows raised before he took his phone out and took a photo from a distance. Aidan might be in a pinch now. With how stubborn he is, he won’t get the girl even if he took several lifespans, he thought. After he took the photo, he kept his phone and left the restaurant satisfied. After dawdling
