CHAPTER 81. Trials

  ?

  “There you are.” Cassian’s voice called out as his footsteps got closer to me. My eyes were fixated on the book in my hands and even then, I could not help but to glance over at his shoes when they appeared in my eyeline. “What are you doing here? We have to leave for court soon.”

  “I know.” I said, closing the book and placing it back on the shelf. “I just needed a quiet place to think.” I said, turning my attention to him. He was dressed handsomely in his formal attire with his hair combed back. He truly resembled a Casanova, ready to steal hearts. He leaned his shoulder onto the bookshelf and watched me.

  Two days have passed since the incident with Laura and due to my worry that Lady Marie might send someone to harm her, I had made Cassian take her away until the day of the trial. Nothing much happened after that as we worked hard to gather all necessary evidence and also found a reliable court representative.
