The Substitute Bride: Making Memories Of Us (Lois Stone)

Chapter 5: Her Promise To Him 

Brian narrowed his eyes and walked up to her.

"As far as I have heard, they call you brave.Then why are you afraid now?"

"I...I just want to go to college,"

Ayla stuttered, lowering her head.

 "If you've come here to talk about going to college, then stop where you are.Because that's not happening."

Brian had never thought that Arlene would beg for his permission to go to college.

He believed she was trying to fool him, so that she could hang out with her friends.

Ayla was crestfallen when he denied her request.

She wasn't allowed to go to college ever again? She would graduate in two years.

Was she going to give up just like that? Seeing that Ayla stood there flabbergasted, Brian ignored her and walked into the bathroom, expecting she would just leave.

But when he came out, she was still stood at the door.

She was indeed a stubborn woman.

I When he didn't acknowledge her, her head hung low.

Heartbroken, Ayla turned around to leave.

 "Wait!"

But Brian stopped her.

Ayla immediately turned around and looked at him expectantly.

He was now sitting on the sofa and smoking.

Their eyes met as she waited for him to say something.

However, he didn't speak until he finished his cigarette.

His gaze was so intimidating that it made Ayla feel scared instantly.

The events of last night was like a nightmare and she didn't want that to happen again.

She just wanted to run and hide from him.

When she saw he wasn't going to say anything, she turned to leave.

"That's all you got for your patience?" Brian mocked her slowly.
