"It was Jonathan Carter who destroyed my life." Linda spat, her face scrunching up in hatred. It was as though she was ready to battle him out if Jonathan were to be standing in front of him. Her entire being screamed of her resentment towards the old man for what he had done to her.
Aria and Ian's calm and cold composure cracked as soon as they heard Noah's grandfather's name. But their shock barely lasted a moment, and they got back to their calm state immediately. It was evident that Linda was lying. Why would someone as amazing as Jonathan resort to such evil and criminal means and destroy people's lives? It was impossible to even imagine it let alone accept it.
Even though it had been only a few times when Aria had met the eldest Carter, from these meetings alone she had found out how simple and down to earth the old man was. Nothing about him showed him to be involved in such matters and even if someone were to show her evidence against, she was certain not to believe them.
