Her heart raced, but she kept her gaze fixed on the horizon, refusing to meet his eyes. "You had your chance, Aryan. You made your choice." "I know I hurt you. I didn't mean for it to happen this way," he said, taking another step closer. "I was wrong, but I'm not the same person I was before. I want to fix this." She shook her head, swallowing the lump in her throat. "I've moved on. I'm not doing this again." Aryan stepped closer, his voice low but firm. "You think you've moved on, but I know you haven't.
