บท 316: I Love You

"What do you want to know about Lacy Knighton?" Aaron asked flatly.

Who had ratted him out? It had to have been someone from high society. Everyone there knew how much Aaron hated the woman's constant pestering.

Detective Ruano answered his question with a question. "How long have you been married, Mr. Hale?"

"Nine months. How is that relevant?"

"Lacy's father mentioned that the two of you were supposed to be engaged slightly over a year ago. How is it that you're now married to someone else with children?"

Aaron snorted. "Brann Knighton is out of his mind. He and my father wanted us to get engaged but I never agreed to it. I was already courting my wife at the time."

Unsuccessfully, but they didn't need to know that. Why were they even asking him this? He had an alibi! Ask him about his alibi! He felt the need to clarify something. They probably thought this was a case of a relationship gone sour.
