StartNovelChapter 0321 August sighed, rubbing his forehead. "I get it. We couldn't risk her accidentally exposing everything. You told her... everything?" "Everything." "Well, shit," August muttered under his breath. "What do we do now?" "I'm not sure," I admitted. "I trust her, so I don't think there's anything else to do." "You trust her?" August's eyes narrowed. "Are you sure that's a good idea?" "Why shouldn't I?" I countered. "Ella's never givena reason not to trust her." He shook his head, his expression skeptical. "We still don't know where she gets her information." Disdain tinged his words.
"You don't know," I corrected. "Ella confessed to me. I understand it all now." August's eyes widened slightly. "I see. So that's why you wantedto look into her background... to confirm whatever story she told you was true.' ") “That's right,” I said, leaning back in my chair. “And it seems it is. So now she and I know all of each other's secrets." "At least that's something," August muttered under his breath.
"I know you don't like this arrangement," I acknowledged, my gaze steady. "And I understand why. But, August, I need you to trust my judgment." "You know I trust your judgment," he responded automatically. "If I didn't, I wouldn't have gone along with so much of this. I may be your beta, but my responsibility to the pack remains. If I thought you were doing anything that endangered it..." I smiled, appreciating his honesty. That was one of the things I respected most about August-he calledout when no one else dared, and when I lost my way, he remindedwho I was.

Have you learned any more about that?" I shook my head slowly. "No," I admitted. "There was so much else to talk about, we didn't get to that topic. Whatever Ella found out about her... we need to stay on high alert. Have you had any luck looking into her?" “She's separated from her husband,” August said. “No divorced, but it seems like things are headed that way. She's been very private about things, so it's hard to find details." "Still, that gives us an idea of why she might make an appearance now," I said thoughtfully. “If she's in a desperate situation, she may think that blackmailingis a way out.
"What should we do?" "Nothing for the tbeing," I said. "Just keep an eye on her movements. If she has any contact with the media or comes to the capital, letknow right away." Yes, sir," August said. He stood and without another word left the office.
I let him go. I had nothing else to say to him for the tbeing. He needed tto get over his anger at me.
