"I didn't know that the events would take this turn!" Naomi retorted. "Who knew that Lazarus would be so greedy? I thought that marrying Olya off to him is going to be like hitting two birds with one stone. But this was surprising! Rather shocking!"
"You underestimated the royals," Cain seethed. "Lazarus is an extremely vicious and clever prince in all of Wilyra. Did you think that he would accept your sister who had run away from her home? I am sure he must be suspecting that she had already given up her virginity. Who knows where she was all these days? Which prince is going to marry a girl who had run away? Can you answer that?"
Naomi was already too shaken on the inside. His words fell like hot iron on her ears. She was ashamed of Olya for the first time.
"No wonder Lazarus is demanding so much dowry," Cain continued. "He knows that your sister is tainted!" They reached their room and Cain shut the door with a bang.
