Aria's eyes filled with tears.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I blamed myself."
Marco's voice cracked slightly.
"I should have protected them."
Aria looked down.For the first time, she saw something she had never seen in Marco's eyes before.That was regret.
But before she could speak a knock came from the door.
Noah entered.
"Marco."
He stopped when he saw Aria.
"Sorry."
"What happened?" Marco asked.
Noah's expression was serious.
"We found something."
Minutes later...Rafael entered the study.
His eyes immediately went to Aria.
"You okay?"
She nodded.
"Yes."
But Rafael knew her too well.He walked toward her.
"You've been crying."
"I'm fine."
He gently touched her cheek.
"You don't have to lie to me."
Aria looked at him.
"I found something about my parents."
Rafael's expression hardened.
"What?"
Before she could answer, Noah placed a tablet on the desk.
"We traced the financial transaction from last night."
Marco stepped closer.
"And?"
