Mason's POV
Someone once said, "A learned fool is more of a fool than an ignorant fool." I hadn't understood those words fully until today. I was a complete and utter fool and there was no better way to describe it. I knew I shouldn't have shed light about that night and the potential damage it would've cost Ava's relationship, however I did it anyway. I crossed a line, but so did Royce. He baited me with his disgust and false accusations and I stupidly took that bait. I was driven by my emotions, something my father often expressed his disapproval of, and he was right. Any person who makes decisions solely based on how they feel are fools and now I believed it. Although I detested Ava's flippant behavior towards the night that we shared together, there was no reason to act the way I did
