Delphine looked at the familiar, refined man standing before her, her whole body stiffened, and her expression changed slightly as she spoke, "Attorney Gray?"
For a moment, it felt as if her blood had frozen into ice. During the incident in Vancouver last year, it was this very lawyer who bailed her out and used Isaac Leclair as bait to force her back to the Southern Isles.
"You work for Ignatius Leclair?" Delphine's hands and feet felt cold. So her return to the Southern Isles had been orchestrated by Ignatius all along? Had she been under his control this entire time? Did he know everything she'd gone through, yet still chose to remain distant, watching from afar for five years?
Her face suddenly turned pale, her body swayed slightly, but she managed to hold herself together and avoided collapsing.
