“There are things about me you don’t know, Aaron. Dangerous things.”

Aaron scoffs. “You expect me to be surprised about that? You’re not exactly an open book. And I’ve heard the rumors.”

“Most of what you heard about me is just that. Rumors. A lot of them started by Karolina to discredit me.”

Aaron seems to pause and take this in.
