He didn't just trust his own eyes; he'd got faith in Liliana's recording too, Amara thought bitterly.

She turned her back. "Well, if you don't believe me, I can't force you. Either way, I didn't do it. Thanks for getting me out of there. I'll be on my way now."

She had been a bit worried about how she'd escape from that situation, but now that Finnian had gotten her out, she could leave directly.

"Mrs. Everly, please wait a moment. Mr. Kevin Everly wants to see you."

Lisa appeared seemingly out of nowhere, blocking Amara's path with a respectful demeanor.

Kevin wanted to see her? Amara wasn't sure what he needed from her-maybe to question her or something else. But she had a soft spot for Kevin, so she followed Lisa upstairs.

"You need me, Mr. Everly?" she asked, keeping her head low as she entered the study.

She thought of calling him by name, but remembering how Kevin no longer saw her as someone close, she decided against it. No need to delude herself.
