Julian's eyes widened at the whole story, it was just like it had occurred. Mattie couldn't explain all these than to lie to him she owns the necklace and he gave it to her.
His face was pale with shock. "I...I..." he stuttered, his words trailing off as he stared at Astrid, lost.
Astrid eyes turned icy, her voice trembling."You should have known it was me," she said, her words laced with hurt. "Our voices were different, but you didn't even bother to check."
Julian shook his head, frustration etched on his face. "I was suffering from night blindness," he argued, but Astrid cut him off.
"You were still blind to the fact that I had changed," she said, her voice bitter. "I was still chubby then, you should have noticed it."
Astrid's hands clenched into fists, her eyes darken in anger as She turned to leave, but Julian grabbed her hands, holding her back.
