Intruding mother (3)

«Vera is not as innocent as you think. She also met your brother, don't you know?» Klara said.

«I know,» Neven replies. «We were planning to tell Ogi soon, but he wasn't at the family dinner. You invited Nena instead of him, so...»

«You know?» she hummed. «Since when?»

«Not too long. Vera hadn't realised he was my brother, at first. It took her quite a while, but she told me as soon as she found out.»

«Oh? She told you?» Klara repeated, confused.

«Yes, she did.»

«But she used a fake name! She told him she was Julie...»

«Really?»»

«She didn't tell you this, did she?»

«I'm not sure, but she used the same name with me. She does it as a means of protecting herself. An old habit of when she worked for the Europol.»

«Even that is suspicious and dangerous.»

«But she's not working for them anymore. She also told me you blackmailed her into coming to the dinner with Ogi's name and calling from his phone.»
