章節 196: Chapter 196: Incentive

"NOT ME, NO," SAID Maverick. "But our people here. They're just doing what Ira wanted us to do."

"Polaris spies are following me?" My voice rose higher with each word. I didn't want anyone spying on me.

"Who?" I demanded, wanting to know which one of our friends was a spy. Who wanted a fake friend?

"Don't worry," he said, a little contrition tinting his voice. "It's not like your whole life is a lie."

He was so wrong. My entire life was a lie. My mom and dad had never told me I was adopted, or whatever it was called when you took over someone else's kid. From what I'd gathered in my vision, I wasn't sure it had been done legally.
