Chapter 86

Thalia didn’t dare consider this possibility.

Her heart rose to her throat, her fingers trembling slightly.

It couldn’t be.

Asher wouldn’t do this!

He had told her that she was the only one in his heart and eyes.

But how could she explain the recording Drake had just played?

Thalia’s mind was in turmoil.

Drake remained silent for a moment.

Giving Thalia’s racing thoughts ample time to spiral.

After a while, Drake continued: “Vanessa kidnapped your sister and tried to kill you. Asher took a knife for you–she nearly killed him! Logically, after everything Vanessa did, the Blackwood family wouldn’t possibly let her go free. But think about it–Vanessa was already in police custody. Why was she abducted immediately after claiming to be pregnant?”

Thalia’s brow furrowed deeply, her lips pressed tightly together as she remained silent.

“You might wanna consider whose baby Vanessa might be carrying?”

This question struck like lightning from a clear sky.

Thalia was so disturbed that her body trembled uncontrollably.

“Shut up!“.

She was visibly upset, looking up to glare fiercely at Drake as she shouted: “Stop spreading these ridiculous lies! Asher isn’t that sort of person! He’s nothing like you! Don’t project your own foulness onto

others!”

A flash of hurt crossed Drake’s dark eyes, a bitter feeling rising in his chest.

Was Asher really so perfect in her eyes?

Was he himself so utterly contemptible?

How ironic.

Drake suppressed the bitterness in his heart, composed himself, and affected an air of casual indifference, his eyes glinting with amusement. “I’m only telling you the truth, Thalia. You trust Asher too much. If he had nothing to hide, why would he keep this from you?”

“Get out!” Thalia demanded furiously.

Drake shrugged, smiling slightly. “Asher is with Vanessa right now. Why don’t you call and ask him yourself?”

“Stop trying to drive a wedge between us!” Thalia gave Drake a forceful push and turned to enter her flat.

Drake grabbed her wrist and yanked her back toward the door, causing Thalia to stumble and nearly fall.
