The door behind Akamir closed shut as he began to walk away.
Even though he had just spent four million on a baron he didn't show any signs of regret.
On the contrary, he had an annoyed look on his face.
Nayomi floated closer to him. "Was it a wise decision?" she asked. "Spending so much—."
"Don't you have something to explain?" Akamir cut in her words, stopping at the empty hallway.
Nayomi blinked, confused by the sudden shift in Akamir's tone.
"What do you mean?" she asked slowly, floating to his side.
Akamir turned to face her, his gaze sharp. "You knew Zaina was the king's daughter. Didn't you?"
Nayomi hesitated before she let out a sigh. "I did."
Akamir narrowed his eyes. "And you didn't think it was important to tell me?"
"I was waiting for the right time."
He scoffed. "And when was that?"
"Soon—."
"Time and time again, Nayomi." Akamir said, glaring at her. "You have been keeping things and only telling me when it's too late."
