Adrian finished the call and handed the phone back to Paige, staring at her as if she had stolen his woman.
"Paige, you're my only sister. I never expected you to join them in deceiving me," Adrian said coldly, looking at his sister.
"..."
"In this world, even you have started to lie to me. Who else can I trust?"
Adrian's voice was filled with deep disappointment in Paige. She shouldn't have conspired with others to deceive him, even if it was a well-intentioned lie.
Moreover, this lie was not well-intentioned at all.
"Paige, have you considered the situation Sienna is in, heavily pregnant and in the hands of someone like Xavier?"
"Brother, I didn't lie to you.
I really didn't know our sister-in-law was kidnapped by Xavier.
Curly, Grandma, and Auntie Briggs were all sent back to Sileria City by Walter, and I thought my sister-in-law went with them too."
"..."
"If I knew my sister-in-law hadn't gone home, there's no way I wouldn't have told you."
