Erik's gaze wavered, unable to meet Amber's fiery eyes.
The weight of guilt made it impossible for him to face her.
His eyes darted around the room, avoiding her intense stare.
His hesitant posture and uneasy eyes revealed the burden of his actions.
But then he sighed. "I don't know what Noah did exactly tell you. He knows why I did everything, but I bet he kept out part of the reason."
To that, the others looked at him. It was clear what Noah said wasn't the whole truth, maybe because of guilt, or maybe for other reasons, but Noah made it clear he wasn't saying everything.
Since the Blackguards were searching for the biological supercomputer, and considering he already showed a lot of powers to his enemies, to Erik, it no longer made sense to hide the truth to even his friends.
That was especially true since they were now involved in the war against them.
