Maeve froze for a moment. "Wasn't it you who saved me?"
"No." Byron replied, his brows deeply furrowed. "When I found you, you had fainted on the path leading to that abandoned
warehouse.
If the kidnappers hadn't released her, how could she have ended up there?" Byron wondered.
"I don't know, I was knocked out from behind. After that, I don't remember anything. Maeve murmured, her eyes filled with confusion. "Wait, are you suspecting that I had something to do with the kidnappers?" As the realization hit her, she stared at Byron in disbelief. "You were both abducted and while Karen was harmed, you managed to escape unscathed. Do you think that makes sense?" Byron countered coldly.
"So what?" Maeve's heart sank. "Whatever happened after I was knocked out was beyond my control. Are you saying that unless I suffered like Karen, it wouldn't make sense?"
Byron frowned. "Maeve, don't be unreasonable. I'm just trying to get the facts.
"Unreasonable?" Maeve almost laughed out of frustration. "You've already decided I'm a suspect, haven't you? I don't have a grudge against Karen, so why would I do such a thing? Even if you're suspicious, shouldn't there be some basic logic to it!"
If I had really done it, I'd admit it. But for something I didn't do, no one can force me to confess, Maeve thought, seething in anger.
The ward fell into silence. After a long pause, Byron spoke slowly, staring at Maeve's reddening eyes. "Back then at the restaurant, you didn't want me to meet Karen, and you even complained about her, didn't you?"
Maeve's fingers clenched tightly, a trace of desolation creeping into her gaze. "So that's why you suspect me? Byron, are you! disappointed that nothing happened to me? Do you wish it had been me instead of Karen? I'm so sorry to have let you down
