Chapter 281

Elena

Tiago sighed. “I need to talk to you about my brother.”

“I’m sorry.” He whispered. The worst thing is that I knew why he said it, and I knew that he pitied me–but it was not his fault that Marvin turned out to be his brother. “Sorry for?”

“Sorry for my brother’s comment. Tiago apologized. “Had I known that the two of you knew each other, I would’ve never-”

He took a deep breath and closed his mouth, unable to finish his sentence. “Hired us?” I guessed. For some reason, I was happy he didn’t because I did not want to interfere with the money the cocktail bar needed.

“So I guess you now know that he wasn’t on that island I told you about,” Tiago mentioned. The island thing was a stupid story, to begin with, but I was also as stupid to go along with it. “Yes, and I guess you know I was his pen-pal and that I ran out on him,” I spoke.

“Yes.” Tiago nodded. “Can I ask why?”

Because he’s a killer and murdered my father’s best friend, who has been investigating him, that was the bold truth which I could not give Tiago. At times I had to remind myself that he was also a Castillo.

“It doesn’t matter anymore. He made his opinion very clear, and it was obviously for a reason.” I spoke as 1 looked at Marvin. The same woman from earlier was still glued to his side and had no intentions of moving.

Tiago laughed. “Misty?” He questioned. “Don’t worry about her. She’s crazy, and there are no words to describe how much he hates her.”

For some strange reason, I felt at ease after learning the news. It shouldn’t even have mattered to me, but it did. “Really?”

Tiago sighed. “Elena, I know my brother, and he didn’t mean a word of what he said.”

“I don’t think he lied either.”“”

“He only had good things to say about you, and he’s actually one of the most respectful people I know.” Tiago stuck up for him. The thing is that he wasn’t supposed to say those things. Marvin was. “I know what you think. He went to prison, and yes, he did-but he’s innocent.”
