Between the Blood and Light of Mortal
"That's not possible, Cady," I contradicted her and even shook my head, "sa ilang months na naka-comatose ka, alam mo ba kung sino ang nag-alaga sa'yo? Si Joaquin. Kung paano maisasa-publiko ang pagkakakita sa'yo, pinlano iyon ng pamilya mo pero si Joaquin ang naniguro na mapupunta ang kaso mo sa isang desenteng pulis."
Tiniim ko ang labi ko matapos iyon at nag-isip pa ng kaunti.
There were a lot of things to consider with this. Cady saw Joaquin shot her, but everything could be obscured. I know there was more to it. Why would he do that? Cady was his heiress, even now. Just like what he had repeatedy made clear to me, he was doing everything to bring justice to his niece, but what good was that justice if it was him who shot her in the first place?
