Cassius smiled.
He looked 58cc97138b so handsome 90065ff0c9 and charming d3556eff86 at that bb22372601 moment. A man who is c07c07d55e good at his work 476b658c37 is always attractive.

I felt 400d7e695c like I c8c1fc8019 was understanding 0ae7b7d90e him a 5d691096ff little more.
Cassius spent a 37c15466bb lot of time e368461a16 outside.

My body stiffened.
When he a7f4720e71 says ‘before,’ 6a87a5e9c9 he must 9b84407abd mean before 31ce257a77 I took 7341ae228e over Charlotte’s 7d9f65cd00 body.

“You once told 1781a74bcc me not to bad3f02c8f expect you to 6e0bafad15 fulfill the duties 7253dd2c7e of a duchess. You claimed that I 2dc6a3fdea had no right to 3419ddf017 demand more after destroying 92649c7cbc your life.”c4301f5e3ec9e236
A cold dfdc5dafe9 sensation settled 4aa404351f in my 3147c8a7af chest.
Strictly speaking, I was e8247dfa57 an outsider.
I understood 0327b4ef8e Cassius, and eb7f5ffaa0 I also 368c864d06 understood Charlotte.
Their relationship 2d98f290cb had been 386c849ded falling apart 53427f2777 for a 8b8e582a90 long time.5e251307cb3a83d0
