I’m simply executing the outcome of that wager. Do you find fault with my actions, Mr. Middleton? Where did I go wrong?”

Emelie’s usually calm demeanor vanished. Now, bristling with defensiveness, she resembled a hedgehog with its spines all prickled up.

This sudden transformation left William feeling like he was looking at a stranger.

“She accused and tried to frame me. It’s conceivable she was the one who tampered with the rope to set me up.
