Rusty blinked twice. He looked even deeper into my eyes as if he didn't want our gaze to break. It seemed as though he was ready to answer all my questions if I were to ask him about it now.
But that was interrupted by Arik's sudden approach.
"What the fuck are you doing, Serrano?" Arik's tone was harsh, which alarmed me.
Rusty, however, didn't seem fazed at all. He just adjusted his seat and looked up at Arik.
"Ah, keeping your woman accompanied while you were with another woman?" Rusty retorted mockingly.
Seeing the anger in Arik's expression, I quickly stood up and approached him. I also noticed Tatiana heading in our direction, which made me grimace.
"We were just talking about something, Arik," I calmly explained to him and glanced back at Rusty, who remained seated, looking unflinchingly defiant.
I knew he was about to spill the beans, but Arik's sudden approach put a halt to it.
