Chapter 50

"Of course, people in this country are quite open and friendly," Aria lied. She feared admitting about her relationship becauseTravis may cause her trouble. He might tell her parents and that will put a restriction on her freedom.

Her father was very overprotective and her mother worried about every single thing. Aria having a boyfriend may not deem well with her parents, but if they learn that Justin hurt their precious daughter then things will go bad, very bad.

"Aria, tell me the name of your friend," Tristan scowled.

"Just a... casual friend. It's no one important for you to know," Aria stammered.

"Oh really?" Travis snapped. Aria lowered her head, not able to withstand his gaze.

"Fine, you know I will eventually find out the truth," Travis warned her.

"I'm leaving," Travis got frustrated when he saw she still chose to remain silent.
