"So I heard," he says shortly. "Doesn't exonerate you."
Nor does he entirely believe it. Whatever Max claims, that they talked it out or whatever bullshit, he's still something like 90% certain it's all some grand ploy on their end. Something to catch people off guard, particularly after Alex died on screen for all of Wonderland to see.
"In fact, I think it's pretty damn shady," says Alex after a pause, "keeping your mitts off like that. You might have Max fooled. She wants to like you, see. Wants to trust you." He snorts softly. "I'm not that gullible."
