Chapter 245
I shook my head. "I had no idea about any of it. I still think that I can talk some sense into Paul."
Alexis glanced at me, his brow drawn together in displeasure. I shut my mouth.
"Was it not Paul Kinninsky who is responsible for the condition that you are in now?" the woman asked.
"Well, indirectly…" Damn, I worried that I sounded like a woman about to tear up a restraining order. "We fought, but others were involved."
The woman's expression grew cold. "But of course. Council woman, why do you think your husband failed to disclose his treachery to you?"
"Well…of course he knew that I could compromise his plan."
"So, you are saying that you would not have gone along with this plan?"
I frowned. "Of course not. I don't want a war."
They looked at each other, talking silently.
I turned and looked at Alexis, my mouth gaping open. Did these people think that I would be a party to something like that?
