Chapter 811

Morris had this icy vibe about him that you couldn't ignore. Ashley, feeling the chill, pulled her coat tighter, uncertainty flickering in her eyes.

"Nathan, do you have a thing for her?" she asked.

Morris didn't say a word. His silence spoke volumes, confirming Ashley's worst fears.

Ashley felt a wave of irritation wash over her. "You shouldn't be into her. I straight- up asked her, and she said she sees you as nothing more than a brother."
