Allan was stepping back to avoid putting her in an awkward position.
But Rachel didn't hesitate. "Allan, you don't have to leave because of him. I invited you for dinner, so you take priority. Besides, whatever was between Brian andis in the past. Con, let's go upstairs." Seeing the unwavering determination in her eyes, Allan nodded and followed her inside.
