“I almost seeded…” Leo tried to exin.
Elizabeth didn’t give him a chance, cutting him off and scolding, “What were you up to back then? I had everything under control.
Why didn’t you do what was needed to prevent Matthew from messing up our ns?”
The more Elizabeth thought about it, the angrier she got.
