Rain truly thought Carla would back down, but she didn't. The woman still approached them, her confidence unwavering, and even had the nerve to call out to Alexander.
"Xander?"
Alexander turned, visibly surprised. "Carla?"
"I went to your villa this morning to apologize to you and Rain, but Aunt Ava said you'd already left for work. Since I've bumped into you here, I'll apologize now," Carla said, her tone soft and her expression regretful.
"I'm sorry for lying. Please believe me when I say I didn't know it was Rain who saved you. Whatever I say now might sound like an excuse, but it won't change the fact that I lied. I truly am sorry," she added, her voice trembling slightly with what appeared to be remorse.
Rain simply observed her in silence. To anyone else, Carla's sincerity would have been convincing… but not to her. She had to admit, Carla was a remarkable actress.
