498 Chapter 498

Giving Christian a minute, I tried to calm my rage a little and look at this from a different perspective. He wanted to help me, didn't he? So why was I attacking him? Hadn't he suffered enough at my hand already? It's not like we could go back now and change what he'd done. The least I could do was try to remain reasonable while he potentially attempted to atone for his mistakes. "What is it?" I asked, hoping he'd elaborate on why he wanted to know more about what I'd found out.

His serious expression became even more so as he cleared his throat and raised his eyes so they were at my face level again. "You can't repeat what I'm about to tell you."

"Oh, good. More secrets." Maybe I was wrong with what I'd thought before and he didn't deserve any compassion.
