Xander turned to me, his gaze lowering. His tone was humble and gentle.“I heard someone questioning your innocence, and I, in a moment of idle curiosity, spoke without your permission. Did I cause you any trouble?”
I suppressed my surprise.“…I’ve caused you trouble, Mr. Shaw.”
‘Should I help you explain?”
…Please.”
I restrained myself from gasping. He was here; it would be foolish to refuse his help.

Kander turned to the crowd.“Last night, I saved Miss Wells.”
I was discussing business with a client at that hotel. On my way out, I encountered Miss Wells in the hallway, disoriented.
