" And what about the cuff links that you sent me?" interrupted Akris with one finger raised, his eyes coldly glinting. " Don't tell me your father also picked up the cuff links that were dipped in basilisk poison?"
"It's not basilisk poison, my lord!" Her complexion went pale as she heard his words and her eyes popped out of her sockets as if she couldn't believe that he actually said something like that. " I will never do something like that?"
" Then why did my skin burnt the second I touched it? If you are going to make excuses then you might as well make some good ones. Everyone knows that my skin burns only when I touch something that's holy or something that's poisonous. You can make another excuse, I will give you time."
