“Do you know why he married you?” Rachael asked abruptly.
Because he loves me…?
“He did mention that there were various reasons. What about you? Why do you think he chose to marry me?” I asked kindly.
I could have added the ‘and not you?’ part but I didn’t. Natalia, you are growing up to be such an angel, really.
Rachael seemed a little stunned at how straightforward I was being with her. Honestly, I didn’t want her hanging around here for too long and I didn’t want her to be here when Reiner came back either.
“I guess Knight never told you anything,” Rachael said before she grinned at me.
“What do you mean?” I asked as I tried not to let her attitude get to me.
“I wasn’t going to tell you this, but I thought that you should know before you get any unrealistic ideas about your relationship with him. Knight didn’t marry you out of love or anything romantic like that,” Rachael said as she stared deeply into my eyes.
