Longing For My Rejected Luna

Chapter 58

*****Erika's POV*****

"How could you two blame me?" I was shocked. Why were they blaming me? They did not even understand what was going on. How would they when it was not them being affected.

"You said very wrong things, Rika. We're your best friends and we would tell you the truth." Paula said.

"What truth?! Do you guys know what I have gone through in the hands of Elder Grigshade at the meeting today? There is without doubt that the man wants me dead if possible, and then I find out that my own brother is doing business with such a man. What kind of business? You both just agreed now that he has never done that before. You both agreed that the character was unlike him. So why was this particular business different? Why?" I ranted.

I was having enough on my plate to want to add whatever my best friends were dishing right now. They said they had come to support and be with me, it was either they did that or they let me be.

Why would they try to blame me? For what? What had I done? What was my crime? Because I asked a question?

"As much as we understand you, Rika, you still do not have the right to tell Jace what you did. When you asked him what kind of business, what was his response?" Paula laid a hand on my shoulder.

"He said he would show me the documents as evidence. So I would see for myself." I begrudgingly replied.

"What did you tell him?" This was from Kat. She seemed to be the most angry one over what I had done. Was she doing this because Jace was her mate? Or because she personally thought I had done wrong?
