Chapter 44

• Isla's POV
• When they let me go, I could hardly believe it.
• How could I? The last few days had been a whirlwind of accusations, cold glares, and isolation. They all looked at me as if I was a murderer. And the rumors... They reached out to me even if I was locked. When I thought, things would get even worse, I was suddenly released due to lack of evidence. Without a word of explanation for how I was no longer convicted, Adrian’s men simply escorted me back to my house.
