What Did She Bargain His Life With

"You can't believe your crazy husband, Felicity," Johnathan snapped, losing his cool. 

She only chuckled, ridiculing his accusing tone. "John, if my Alexander says you're guilty, then you're guilty," she said, declaring her verdict. The confidence in her eyes shone bright, proving how much Alexander's words meant to her. She trusted him with all her might. Even though it's the truth, Johnathan felt hurt and looked at her in disbelief. 

"Then why were you arguing with him? You fought with him defending my innocence in this conspiracy," he reminded her, his frustration reaching its limit. "I thought you genuinely trusted me and valued my life because of our friendship. It felt so good to assume you care about me too," he said, feeling disappointed.
