"Gellert?"
"Why do you think it's him?"
Beau was still smiling. "Intuition."
Eliza curled her lips. "What? I thought you had evidence."
"You don't think it's him?"
"Possibly..."
Eliza recalled the brief confrontation between her and Gellert. From his looks, that person seemed to be flawless, but the inside he was actually a bastard, with a lot of schemes.
"I just think that if he said that Roseane had done him a favor, then why would he do that? If Lucy heard the news, she would definitely stop Matthew from doing the surgery. Wouldn't that indirectly harm Roseane's mother? What good would Gellert get?"
Beau's eyes darkened and he looked thoughtful.
Eliza touched Beau's hand.
"Why don't you speak?"
Beau held Eliza's hand and suddenly said, "What if he doesn't care about Roseane's mother's safety at all?"
Eliza was startled. "Why do you say that?"
