"Isla," he called, his voice brutally stern, "you know it was a terrible mistake that shouldn't have happened in the first place. You're my best friend's daughter and he has entrusted you to my care for Pete's sake!" "Is that your excuse?

Léa n’aurait jamais imaginé qu’un simple dîner marquerait le début d’un bouleversement dans sa vie. Elle aimait Thomas, ou du moins, c'est ce qu’elle croyait. Leur relation avait toujours été stable, sans vagues, ancrée dans une routine confortable. Thomas, avec sa douceur et son calme rassurant, lui avait apporté un équilibre dont elle avait tant besoin. Ils formaient un couple harmonieux, ou du moins, c'était ce qu'elle avait voulu croire. Puis, il y avait eu cette rencontre. Théophile, le frère jumeau de Thomas, avait toujours été présent dans leur vie, une ombre familière en toile de fond, avec son sourire charmeur et son esprit vif.
