CHAPTER 57

Anna's POV

After Aidan left, I sit quietly taking into consideration the warnings he pointed out to me on our way here. I don't want to get on his bad side and get him angry on a day like this. I want to stay put and wait till he is back, hoping the meeting with his father won't turn out bad.

There are few people left in the hall now and everyone seems to be chatting with other people. The people on the dance floor have stopped dancing and the music is off. I can see some people going to the buffet to get their food. 

My stomach rumbles at the instant and I shut my eyes to ward my hunger off. I can't eat without Aidan here. I feel unprotected without him here and I feel everyone seems to be looking at me, those I know and even those that I don't know.
