Noticing Harry's sour face and Arya's continuous crying, Asher remembered he'd seen a woman leaving the dimly lit it, drinking she was just some bar girl caught by Arya trying to cling to Harry To avoid
making things worse, Asher kindly asked all the other women in leave the room. With just the three of them left, be still hadn't grasped the depth of the problem. He pulled Harry to sit, whispering, "Sort it out with Arya, and don't make her cry. Then, he turned to Arya and ge having a fight with you."
Seeing Asher feeling quite confident in his peacemaking skills, Harry was fuming. "Who told you to call Arya here?"
Asher looked bewildered at Harry's reaction. 'Did I get in wrong? Harry didn't come here because of Arya, so seeing Arya here ticked him off, huh? hr wondered
An idea seemed to strike Asher. "Did I mess up Harry's evening plans with that woman who just left by bringing Arya here? he thought.
While Asher was lost in his thoughts, Arya sobbed and whispered, "Asher, Harry being mad isn't your fault. Maybe I just shouldn't have been here. I should've stayed abroad and not come back." "Huh?" Asher was confused.

Coming all this way just to get this result, I should have let Harry fend for himself. Why bother Julia stormed off to the parking lot, venting in her car about Harry, but she didn't feel any better, only regretting that she hadn't slapped Harry
