Adrian's words did not make sense to Keith at first.
Or rather, they made too much sense to him. He was afraid that Adrian had seen something he should not have. And now that was going to bite Keith in the back.
"I know you were that black-haired man I met in the ally before. You were also the one who threw Veera at me. I know it all so you don't need to put up a guard in front of me."
Adrian assured Keith with a determined expression. Adrian looked like a saint who had figured out something important in his life.
"I don't know what you are talking about. I did not do you any favors."
Keith quickly denied doing anything. He had maintained a perfect mask until now. He could not afford to break it and let his true self out now.
"Hmm, if you are unable to tell me about your real self, then I will not ask you anymore. I know that people have the circumstances that bind them. Instead, I wanted to ask you - do you want to go home?"
