Chapitre 278: Injuries

Karenina clenched her jaws. "No, if I didn't experience it myself, I would never believe that you are capable of such a thing. I was so shocked and devastated after the assault. However, after thinking about it all night, I decided to forgive Your Majesty by convincing myself that sooner or later we will get married."

She looked at Nicholas angrily. "I am so stupid… I  should have stuck with my story and not tried to protect you. You don't even appreciate what I did. I never thought Your Majesty would ever run away from your responsibilities."

Nicholas' hands clenched into fists when he heard Karenina's last sentence. He glared at her again.

"I'm not that kind of man, Karenina. You have been accusing me of things that only you know what happened. How can I be sure that you are not trying to trap me into marrying you?" he said coldly. "For all I know, you could put something in my drink and that caused me to lose my mind for a while last night."
