Of course, it was just a guess. An assumption based on the few vague clues that were available. It could very well be wrong.
Lane decided to go with it. That it was wrong, that is.
It had to be. After all, if Clara truly had a crush on Nyla, then would she be so rude to her twin? And yes, he was also rude to Clara, despite l…iking Damien very much, but still! Clara looked nothing like Damien, and besides, she was the one who started it, so it didn't count! Lane was plenty nice to Damien's other sisters, who weren't being insufferable and hostile towards him. That's how a person should treat their crush's loved ones.
Surely, Lane had previously jumped to a ridiculous conclusion, and there was actually a perfectly innocent explanation behind Clara's weird behavior.
