The Girlboss Begs For Remarriage

There was a grand banquet in the evening at White Hall, and Frank sought out Aria.

“I won’t hold you accountable for what you did,” he said. “You can keep everything I gave you, but I have one request—once we return to Riverton, you’ll tell Winter that nothing ever happened between us.”

Aria nodded repeatedly as she saw the clear warning in Frank’s eyes. “Oh, are you going for a tourney tomorrow?”

“Yes.”
