Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 723

“But then the news about Ms. Sullivan’s pregnancy came out, and it turned out she conceived four months ago—which matches exactly the day you brought her into your room.”

“I counted back, and it’s clear the baby Ms. Sullivan is carrying is yours. That child is proof, so I went to talk to Ms. Sullivan about it.”

“I told Ms. Sullivan that I saw her go into your room that day, and if she ever wanted to tell you the truth, I could testify for her.”

Tina blurted it all out in one breath, her voice nearly hoarse.

She was so nervous in front of Finnian that she poured out everything she knew, not daring to leave out a single detail.

Finnian asked, “You told Amara you could be her witness, but she turned you down, didn’t she?”

Tina nodded. “Ms. Sullivan said she didn’t need to bring it up, and she also told me not to tell anyone else.”

“But last night I saw Mrs. Emma Everly accusing Ms. Sullivan of being pregnant before marriage. Mrs. Emma Everly even called her child illegitimate and said Ms. Sullivan was an immoral woman. I just couldn’t stand it anymore, so I tried to persuade Ms. Sullivan to tell everyone the truth. I never imagined things would get so out of hand.”

Thinking about what happened yesterday, Tina looked like she was about to cry again. She genuinely felt guilty towards Amara.

Finnian nodded. “You did the right thing. It was important for you to speak up.”

If it hadn’t been for Tina, would he have spent his whole life unaware of the truth, and gone through with marrying Liliana today, oblivious to it all?

At the thought, a shadow crossed Finnian’s face.
