They were both silent, each lost in their own thoughts after the disclosure. The truth was that Erasmi had not told her everything about Nellie. He was not too sure if he should. After all the truth would not make much of a difference when the person was already dead. But knowing the truth, it would definitely hurt Nora.
She had never known any kindness in her family. So, if she believed that her sister was a good person, it would not harm anyone. So, he silently sipped his coffee. And then he grimaced to himself. He was supposed to be here to keep an eye on Nora and instead, he was already ready to protect her. No wonder all his younger brothers doted on her. There was something about her quiet strength that made them want to protect her and not let her use the strength.
"Is it too painful for you to tell me the rest?" Nora asked quietly.
Erasmi looked up in surprise. "What rest? I've already told you everything."
