Chapter 88 Aria slept in the guest room that night and had her first restful sleep in weeks. It wasn't until the next morning's breakfast that she encountered Kane at the dining table. He looked like he hadn't slept well, a rare hint of frigor showing on his handsome features. Margaret brought breakfast, expecting Arla to serve Kane as she usually did, but when the saw Aria's indifferent reaction, she was taken aback. The housekeeper seemed to sense the subtle tension between the banded pair .

Otherwise he wouldn't be so affected by your behavior." Aria was stunned by the suggestion. Did Kane care about her? This was probably the most absurd notion she'd heard in years. Her expression grew stiff. "Margaret, are you… "How could I be wrong? When Alpha Ravencrest used to have breakfast here before, you would always fuss about whether he was eating properly and sleeping well I observed it all Alpha Ravencrest is upset today because you didn't show him any attention, right?"
