Laura's POV:

My heart trembled. Seeing Rufus in so much pain broke my heart. "Don't think about that. It's nothing important. You didn't like Alina at all at the time, so it's not strange that you forgot those bad memories. I often can't remember what I ate for breakfast, let alone what happened a few years ago."

Rufus' forehead was covered in beads of sweat, and he gripped the edge of the table tightly, as though he was trying to suppress something.
