Lyta sighed. Did she agree with Irina not handing over her father to the authorities? Absolutely not, after what he did to those kids. Did she understand why she did it though? In a way, yes, she did. Hell, she probably would've done the same thing if she was in Irina's place.
"He's your blood," Lyta said, "And blood runs deep. It's only human nature to want to defend them. And after what Nicholas did to him, I understand why you wouldn't want to leave him there to rot. Do I agree with you? No, I don't. But people have disagree all the time. And like you said, you didn't know what he was involved in. And if you did, you wouldn't let us go after the kids, and you would've tried to stop us, correct? Like I said, while I don't agree with what you did, I understand why you did it. And that's good enough for me."
As for Misha thinking that Irina was a Red Room plant, she didn't think that was true, either. Irina was her friend. He could call her naive, but she believed that was who she said she was. She'd proven her loyalty and worth in the field. And that was all Lyta needed.
