Tania was nervous because she was surrounded by all the accusations indirectly. Everyone looked at her suspiciously, making her cornered. Moreover, she was inexperienced in lying.
Now she squeezed her fingers, feeling the bulge in her stomach. Her baby started to grow inside it. "I did sleep with Stefanus last night," she said, starting to make up a story. "But my stomach hurts so I want to see Mr. Zen. That's why I came out. The guards also saw me, you can ask them this. Then suddenly Lord Kleo approached me drunk and asked me to take him to the room. I was the same as him, I don't know what happened to him before that."
Duke Kleo looked away. This wasn't a big deal for him if only Lyra kept trusting him. But he knows for sure she trusts Tania more, even though Tania is a cunning snake.
"Do we need to present it to the guards?" asked Gena, taking the initiative.
