Chapter 267: Trust and Support

Keeley's idea hung off into space for a minute while Aaron thought it over.

"You know, Cameron actually suggested something similar. He thinks that the target might be my father, not me. Since he knows about my plan and gave me something that will move it along faster," he said finally.

Aaron was a high-profile person within the city. Everybody knew his name but not his face. News of his marriage had been a huge deal the first time around. The fact that it hadn't leaked out yet probably meant that Graydon Meyer had no intention of saying anything.

If Alistair Hale was his enemy rather than Aaron, discovering the plot to overthrow his father must have been a pleasant surprise. Helping Aaron instead of hurting him would be a simple thing to do if they were working against the same person.
