"Hello, Aiden. Are you okay?"
When Aiden heard that, he wondered for a second how Ava knew that he wasn't really fine. Her voice looked a bit more soft, like she was anxious and concerned about him.
Her next words explained why she knew that he wasn't okay.
"I was watching the award ceremony on TV and I saw you walking towards the exit during one of the awards. You didn't look good. So, I called you. What's going on?"
"I can't really explain it to you but I'm thinking of doing something that will put my career in risk. But I don't know if I'm gutsy enough to go with it."
Ava went silent hearing that. For a moment, she wondered if her ears were hearing wrong. But it didn't look like she did.
"What are you planning to do and why?"
