Of course she was in denial. Simon was a man of extreme integrity. He’d told her last night he’d given her his heart, body and soul. She’d believed him. She still believed him! Amanda was lying, trying to dig an irreparable wedge between her and Simon. But Katy was a scientist. She looked at what was real, not emotional reasoning or conjured fantasies. Simon had all but outted himself last night when he admitted he was on the task force. Oh he had skillfully skated on the edge of the truth. Katy knew he and his men were there because of the symposium. A symposium where she was the key note speaker! And the entire time he’d been pretending? Making her fall in love with him to get information out of her? She refused to believe it. But how could she not when the facts screamed the truth? Anger flashed. Did he really think she was involved with Evan’s duplicity? Inwardly she cringed. She should have known Simon was too good to be true.
