Chapter 270

Hogan was fuming, ready to fire back when Finnian cut him off sharply, "Hogan, what nonsense are you spouting? Apologize to Amara."

"Finnian?" Hogan stared at him in disbelief.

In his mind, Finnian had always been not-so-fond of Amara. So why was he taking her side now?

"Apologize to her." Finnian's voice was cold and unwavering. "Don't make me repeat myself."

Hogan was taken aback by Finnian's insistence. He couldn't believe Hogan would use a phrase like "shameless" to describe Amara.

In the three years Finnian hadn't been paying attention to Amara, how many such insults had she endured?

"No need," Amara said coolly. "I don't want it."

What good was an apology from Hogan, especially if it wasn't sincere? She had no use for empty gestures.

She turned to Finnian, her voice detached, "Today, Liliana barged into my dressing room without my permission, said some bizarre things, and then fainted."

"Her fainting has nothing to do with me. I called the ambulance to take her to the hospital purely out of basic decency. Now that you're here, I'll be leaving."
