Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 566

But then she thought of Finnian. He'd continued to be good to her even after finding out she was pregnant...

No, that wasn't right. Finnian had married Liliana; he loved Liliana.

As for his feelings for her, they probably weren't nonexistent, but they were complicated, and he likely didn't understand them himself. So that wasn't a valid comparison.

Amara's mind was racing. Seeing that Dorian was still waiting for an answer, she quickly fabricated a lie. "He did mind, at first. But he really likes me, so he gradually came to accept it."

She felt her face flush as she told the lie, but she had no choice. She had to come up with some excuse, or the situation would look too suspicious.

Dorian frowned slightly. It seemed Keith and Finnian really were different from other men, willing to be such... suckers. Or was it just that their feelings for Amara ran that deep?

He dropped the subject of Amara and glanced at Elysia's back on the balcony. He lowered his voice. "Let me ask you something. Has Elysia mentioned me to you lately? What does she think about our relationship?"

*Oh, so now he's asking me about this.*

Amara answered matter-of-factly, "Ely hasn't mentioned you. She's a bit annoyed with you lately."

That was putting it mildly. The truth was, Elysia was extremely annoyed with him, but since they were about to have dinner at his house, Amara decided to be diplomatic.

Dorian was taken aback. Then Amara continued, "I've watched the two of you from the beginning. To be honest, as Elysia's friend, I hope she divorces you."

When Dorian's face fell, she added, "Don't get upset. Weren't you the one who was hoping Finnian would divorce me back then?"
