Chapter 176

Layla’s POV

“Can I at least drop you off?” He looks towards his parked car seated far away from us.

I remain still for a while, automatically bereft of words. I'm contemplating on what response is best to give to his offer.

I think that my reply is supposed to be solely based on how he had appeared and what had happened since the last few minutes we've spent here together and based on my better judgement, we'd handled it like adults.

Clutching my bag hard over my shoulder, I replied. “No thank you, that won’t be possible.”

“Layla please. It’s too dangerous for you walking around this night.”

“I’m fine, Logan.” I tried to walk past him and again, he grabs hold of my hand, causing me to turn back to see him.

He quickly lets go of my hand as if he hadn’t done that intentionally and looked down. I thought my heart melted.
