Ah!
Aria Grant truly couldn't control herself, for she had never witnessed George Flack so disheveled before her, so she truly did not know what to do.
But that cry just now had caught Edward's attention. Filled with resentment, which included dissatisfaction towards Aria Grant,—if it weren't for Aria Grant, that role would still be Mallia Mamet's.
"You've reaped all the benefits," he said, "tell me, why do you still feel so aggrieved? How about I let you experience what despair feels like?"
Aria's body shook uncontrollably as she kept backing away, knowing that Edward had lost his mind at this moment, but still unable to comprehend the logic. It was just a role, why should it lead to Mallia Mamet's despair? It was hardly worth it!
However, Aria didn't rush to explain herself to Edward, because Aria knew it was futile. But she had not anticipated that Edward would actually come at her with a small knife aimed at her face.
