Chapter 202


    LEAN


    I’m beginning to think I wildly miscalcted with this n, and thinking I’ll have to send the emergency


    signal text for James toe and get me out of this situation with Tobin.


    I’ve been stalling and making small talk for what seems like ages, and Aaron still hasn’t replied to my


    message.


    Tobin keeps offering me strong liquor-trying to get me drunk, or setting up the possibility to slip


    something into my drink-1 wouldn’t put it past him.


    I think it’s time to cut my losses and run, but first I need to know if I can get any information out of him


    at all.


    “I have a confession to make,” I finally tell him after I’ve exhausted every mundane topic I can think to


    mention.


    “Oh yes?” Tobin askszily, swirling the golden liquid of the bourbon he’s drinking. “And what might that


    be, Luna Leah?”


    “Liam brought me in on his secret project in the weeks before


    he died.”


    “I know,” Tobin replies, tossing back the liquor. “It was my idea.


    I told him to.”


    At this, I’mpletely stumped.


    never thought Tobin would admit to knowing about it, let alone telling me outright that he got Liam to


    bring me in.


    Just how much power was Tobin wielding behind the scenes.


    that I never knew about?


    “Then you must know where the tech went,” I say straight out,


    deciding the time for games is over.


    However, disappointingly, Tobin shakes his head. Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    “The night Liam was killed, I went to the restricted floor to secure the project,” Tobin says, sitting


    forward on his chair. “But when I got there, the floor was empty. Everything was


    gone. I think Liam had it all moved and secreted away before he was killed. I think he was nning to


    screw over me, and everyone else-including you.”


    My first instinct is to deny my brother would ever do something like that.


    But then I remember back to that final night.


    When I’d seen the truth of him and what he felt toward me, my


    marriage to Aaron and our innocent child.


    I realize that I didn’t know my brother at all.


    And the possibility that he moved and hid the Al tech before


    he was killed is entirely feasible.


    Now I’m torn.


    I had almost convinced myself that Aaron was the one in possession of the tech, but this new


    information Tobin has shared puts things in apletely different perspective.


    Before I can answer, however, the door suddenly bursts open, crashing into the wall with a loud bang.


    1 look over to see Aaron filling the doorway, eyes glowing.


    “Tobin, what are you doing with my mate?”
