Chapter 67

• Adeline's voice was hesitant, but she tried to explain herself. "I know you're angry about this project, and I wanted to stop Zarek too, but..."
• Sebastian cut her off, his words dripping with venom. "You want to stop...huh...what a joke, Adeline. Aren't you the one who's been supporting him, your fiancé? What made your heart change suddenly?"
• Adeline felt a pang of regret when Sebastian mentioned Zarek, her fiancé. She knew she had been wrong to be with him, to support his destructive plans. But she had been blinded by her own desires, her own fears.
