“Why would you bring up the exchange of money? Neither of you are prostitutes!” she said in outrage. “Of course, Alexander stopped things. I’m sure that had humiliated him.”

“But he was the one who first brought up money,” I argued. “I’m not the one who introduced it into the conversation.”

She raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. “Are you sure? What are the exact words that Alexander had said?”

I searched my memory, but trying to recall what Alexander had said in that moment was like trying to catch fog with my hands. It kept slipping away from me right before I could grasp onto his words.
