I've done something wrong, will you forgive me?” Milo gritted his teeth, his tone sharp. “It depends. What exactly

are you talking about?” Leah’s sobs grew louder. “I didn’t know, Milo ... | really didn’t know...” “Didn’t know

expression darkened, his eyes narrowing in a flash of icy realization. Leah, now shaking in fear, clutched his arm,

anger still present, though his voice softened slightly. “No matter what, those things were Charmaine’s. You

shouldn't have kept them.” “I didn’t know at first,” Leah said, her voice full of hurt. “I only realized later, but |

Milo finally took her hand, his voice low and heavy. “I know... It’s not your fault.” Leah was on the verge of relief

when Milo’s tone turned icy again. “But the one with the most to explain is Bennett. Don’t worry. I'll find out the

Charmaine had asked the butler for an iron bucket and, following Mia’s instructions, she took the small wooden
