247 The Golden Boy

"You want to meet early?" Scar glances at her phone to make sure the caller is indeed Damian, "Sure thing, but how early can dinner be?"

She's a bit surprised that Damian would move their dinner plan forward, but considering how he has been making effort to build a connection, she persuaded herself. "Authur, could you--?"
