Mason Nightshade is a very proud person.
Aurelia Shaw has chased him for so many years and knows him very well; this man is very arrogant, cares a lot about appearances, and looks down on everyone else.
Everything she's saying is intentionally provoking him, deliberately testing his limits.
She's not afraid of what Mason Nightshade might do to her.
This is a hospital; no matter how irrational Mason might become, he wouldn't make her half-crippled here.
"Thought about it for a long time?" He read each word slowly and precisely.
Contrary to Aurelia Shaw's expectations, Mason was not angry.
Instead, he focused on a few insignificant words.
His dark eyes stared at her without blinking, insisting on hearing her answer.
"Yes, a long time," Aurelia Shaw met his gaze.
Mason Nightshade isn't an ordinary person; he can tell if you're lying from the slightest facial expressions.
But she is an actress.
Most adept at "deception."
