As for Kane, he didn't share this worry. He never made the first move with girls he didn't know. Just like his father, he was aloof in his blood. He was a cold fish with his demeanor screaming silently, ‘Keep your distance!’
After Avery wrapped up his afternoon performance, they all decided to grab some grub at a local diner.
Later, William returned home with Arnold. He was excited to see his dad's photographs and hear stories about his adventures in the desert.
Aurelia headed back to Blossom Villa. Her mind was overwhelmed with the issue of the AK Group. Did Leopold know anything about it?
Just then, her phone rang. It was Leopold.
"I'm outside. Come out."
It was perfect timing as she was already planning to talk to him. She threw on a jacket and hurriedly slipped out, quickly getting into his car.
Leopold pressed a button, and the car interior turned into a secluded space.
With a swift move, he pulled her close, his lips crashing onto hers unexpectedly.
Aurelia gasped, realizing he was acting more impulsively than usual, not even bothering with formalities.
Their relationship was starting to feel like a forbidden affair. She turned her head away and gently pushed him back. "I need to talk to you."
"Can't it wait?" he groaned, it had been a week since they made out last time, and his hormones were bubbling up like lava at the mouth of a volcano, ready to erupt.
Aurelia shot him an annoyed glance. "You're too lustful, just like your father. You should try to restrain yourself a bit."
"I only have you. What's there to worry about?"
Aurelia rolled her eyes. Was she really his only woman? She doubted it.
Men sometimes falter when it comes to keeping their urges in check, let alone someone genetically predisposed like him.
"I have something important to say. I mean it."
Leopold looked at her deeply before releasing her. "What is it?"
"Do you know about the AK Group in Verdecalma?" she asked quietly.
