Next to him, Mollie shot him a hesitant look.

Her friends, however, began exchanging glances between Darien and Ellie.

One of them asked, "Mollie, what's going on here? Is your boyfriend faking this rich kid act?"

Mollie immediately turned to Darien, her tone sharp. "That's impossible! Darien, are you going to let the servant's daughter talk to you like that? She's totally out of line!"

Darien shot up from his seat, storming over to Ellie. He grabbed her arm roughly. "Ellie Cobb, have you had enough?"

Ellie jerked her arm free.

Keira and Erin took a step forward, ready to help, but Ryan stopped them.

Ryan simply said, "The Cobb family doesn't need anyone to fight their battles."

Keira rolled her eyes. "Fine, if that's how the Cobbs handle things. But we're still going to have a nice little chat with Darien later."

So, the group stood by, watching the scene unfold.

Darien, seeing Ellie pull away, scoffed. "Stay if you want, just don't get in my way."

With that, he turned to Mollie.
