Leander hugged her. She is thinking that he is sad about his brother's death. It won't take her much time to realize that if he wanted his brother alive, he would be.
"When are we leaving?" Viviana asked.
She did not want to attend Evander's funeral. She didn't think that she would be able to digest being there. But as Leander's wife, it is her duty to stand by his side at moments like these.
Leander got out of her embrace and looked at her. "Do you want to go?"
He had no plans to bring her there. His grandfather didn't mention him refusing to help, but he knew his grandfather would be holding it in his heart against him. He will blame him for Evander's death.
If she was there, he wouldn't be able to speak his mind as they will think that she is the one using him to speak. Their anger will turn at her. He will not let that happen.
And more importantly, she just had a miscarriage. She cannot travel for six hours for a funeral.
