The Girl He Craves

The Girl He Craves By Demiah13 Chapter 85

Sophie’s pov

Bernard is sitting across from me, his gaze swirling with deep confusion and shock.

“Wait. So Ashton’s father is Aiden Xavier?” He asked with a perplexed expression.

I figured it wouldn’t make sense to not tell him the truth. Bernard has after all done so much for me and Ashton.

I couldn’t bare to lie to his face.

So I told him everything.

From how Aiden and I were in high school. The reason why I wanted to leave the job. The reason why Aiden threat- ened his job.

I told him that Aiden was Ashton’s dad. I told him every- thing….

I nodded, wincing as I brought the cup of coffee to my lips.

We’re at the diner, the very same one I have worked at for

years.

After dropping Ashton off at daycare, I came here to have coffee with Bernard and to tell him everything.

Mila approaches us.

“Do you two need anything else? A croissant?” Mila asked.

I shook my head. We were actually late for work and I’m surprised Aiden hasn’t called my phone as yet to ask me about my whereabouts.

Sure he called to speak to Ash, but there was a different edge in his voice when he spoke to me this morning.

“No. I’m going in a few. Running late.” I said to Mila with a

smile.

Bernard also declined anything else other than a coffee.
