Harper closed her eyes and took a deep breath. There was no point arguing. He wasn’t going to let it go until she answered.
She slowly exhaled, then opened her eyes and met his gaze with a serious look.
“We paid the people behind the poisoning a visit.”
Nicholas frowned, immediately understanding what she meant.
