Chapter 66: True mates

Nate was so shocked that he couldn't reply for quite a while. He observed Lara and listened to her words, but his brain wasn't working anymore.

He didn't like the new information he was collecting, by the way.

He remembered how Lara refused to drink the wine at dinner when she visited his apartment with the pups. She said she didn't like it, so he didn't insist.

But her last few words made him realise there was something more to the story. As if she blamed alcohol for what happened six years before.

It couldn't be possible. The wine was not the culprit.

He was sure because she didn't smell like alcohol as much as to be suspicious. He would have stopped if he thought she was drunk.

But then, why did Lara think the opposite? Was the experience so bad that her brain made up she was drunk to explain it?
