Cecilia 's pov
The room went quiet. You could feel the tension.
Daisy had just accused me of "tainting" Sebastian.
My blood boiled.
Seriously, who was tainting who ? He was the one chasing me.
But somehow, I was the bad guy in this whole mess.
Honestly, was there any justice left in this ridiculous world ?
From the corner of my eye, I saw Harper press her lips together, her brows drawn tight. To anyone watching, she looked serious. Angry. Terrified.
In reality... she was trying not to laugh.
I let out a slow breath and let the fear melt from my face. My expression cooled as I turned to Daisy.
"You’re in love with Sebastian, aren’t you ?" I asked, calm and direct.
The words left my lips like a blade. My eyes held nothing but cold amusement.
Daisy froze.
