Chapter 31 — Don't Trust Him
The car fell silent.
Amelia stared at Alexander.
He kept his eyes on the road, but his expression had changed.
“You heard him,” Amelia whispered.
“Yes.”
“Why would my father tell me not to trust you?”
Alexander tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
“I don't know.”
Daniel sat quietly in the back seat.
Amelia turned toward him.
“Do you know?”
Daniel shook his head.
“No.”
Alexander glanced at Amelia.
“You don't have to believe me.”
She frowned.
“What does that mean?”
“If you think I'm hiding something, ask me.”
Amelia looked at him carefully.
“Did your father know mine was alive?”
Alexander hesitated.
“I don't know.”
“That's not an answer.”
“I honestly don't know.”
They continued driving.
After several minutes, Daniel pointed ahead.
