"Cyprian!" Raymond called, but Cyprian was long gone, already planning another scheme in her head.
Standing in the elevator, Cyprian tapped her feet on the ground anxiously, still trying to think of how she would meet Shikera. She had thought the police would be able to scare whoever was presiding over Anderson Corporation in Liam Anderson's place but which police would be able to scare Ethan Deloach.
Forgetting that Shikera could not speak, she could already predict what Shikera would say when she finally found her.
"Are you angry now, Sweetie?"
Of course she was angry, anger was even an understatement compared to what she was feeling. Who would not be annoyed that her best friend, whom she had trusted regardless of whatever happened, could lie to her like this? Yes, Shikera was married to Ethan Deloach, and she understood why their marriage must be kept secret. But did that give her the opportunity to lie to her friend so many times?
