Zane’s POV

Fred strode into my office without knocking and pulled up short at Morgan’s presence there. She was just about to leave, and after an amused, baiting glance at him, she gathered her purse and brushed past him before slipping out of the room.

After she left and closed the door behind her, Fred gave me a pointed look but said nothing of her presence here. Still, it was clear from his expression that he was displeased.

“I got your message,” he said instead, walking further inside.

“Oh, is that why you didn’t knock?” I grumbled, not really offended but desiring to give him shit for it.

“Oh, my bad. If I’d known I was interrupting something, I would have barged in sooner.”

I rolled my eyes and pushed a folder full of files across the table towards him.

“I need you to go through this.” I started, ignoring the frown on his face that I was certain was entirely because of Morgan.

“Does it have information on why you won't just end things with that woman and stay away from her?”

    Jessica’s POVAfter we had the dinner the servant had sent into his office, I helped Zane with his paperwork, reviewing some safety protocols and financing matters. After a few hours, we finally finished.“That’s exhausting! I can’t imagine how you do all this alone,” I dramatically exclaimed as I leaned back on my seat with my arms hanging on the side and head on the top of the backrest with it a little tilted to stare in his eyes.Giving out a charming smirk, he boasted, “I’m the King.”“Don’t be smug.” I laughed.“Alright, let’s get to business.” He clapped his hands and stretched out before sitting properly and pulled out a map from the drawer under his table.“Agh, maybe after a while?

Walking out from his hiding, he looked at me like I betrayed him. “Straight to violence, really? My poor, fragile heart. How dare you?”I rolled my eyes before turning around. Slamming down to the bench with my legs apart and my elbows on it, I started removing my hand’s wrap.Fred’s shadow loomed over me as he stood in front ot me. “What’s wrong?”“Eric… Again,” I said with a hint of helplessness in my voice as I threw the wrap to who knew where.“Ah, the walking plague,” he commented with understanding before seating down beside me.“I talked to him yesterday in the market.
