Signed, Sealed, I’m Rich: The Rejected Luna’s Multi-Billion Chapter 183
Jeremiah’s POV“How exactly did she meet this boy?”I kept my voice flat, like a pane of glass. I watched the wine swirl in my glass and fought the urge to call the waiter back for a double shot of bourbon. My chest felt tight, like a coiled spring, and the only way to survive the next ten minutes was to bury every single emotion under a layer of ice.Clementine didn’t seem to notice. Or maybe she did and just didn't care. She reached for a piece of bread from the center of the table, her eyes bright with a look that was way too dreamy for my liking.“He is the younger brother of one of Salome’s friends,” Clementine said. She sounded like she was narrating a fairy tale. “Apparently, he has been waiting for the perfect moment to ask her out for years. He’s had a massive crush on her forever. Isn’t that the most romantic thing you’ve ever heard, Jeremiah? Don’t you ever wish for a sweet

Jeremiah’s POV“You have it all wrong, I am not here for a date,” I said. My voice was steady, even if my pulse was currently doing a frantic dance against my ribs.Clementine didn’t look like she believed me. She tilted her head and gave me a long, sharp look. I had to move fast. I leaned closer to the table and kept my voice low so the people around us wouldn't hear. I explained the situation as quickly as I could. I told her how Salome had gotten some bad information through the grapevine. She actually believed I had come all the way to Luceland just to meet some mystery woman. It was a joke, really, but Salome wasn’t laughing.As I spoke, the icy wall Clementine had built up around herself started to melt. She nodded along and her eyes softened. She didn’t look like she wanted to slap me anymore. Instead, she leaned in until her lips were inches from my ear. Her perfume was faint, something like vanilla and rain.&l

Salome’s POV“Forget about Jeremiah, Naomi. You’re honestly better off without him,” I said.I didn’t lower my voice. I wanted him to hear me. I kept my back straight and my eyes fixed on the table, even though I could feel my pulse thumping in my neck. Across from me, Naomi looked like she wanted to crawl under the tablecloth.I heard a sharp rustle of paper behind me. Jeremiah’s hands tightened on his menu, the cardstock crinkling under his grip. I didn't have to look at him to know he was glaring at the back of my head. He hated when I challenged him, especially in public. I knew he was probably trying to ignore the way my hair looked or the way I smelled, but he was too stubborn to stay quiet.He had set this whole night up just to mess with me. He made me sit right next to Naomi on purpose. He wanted to punish me for talking about his private life, and he didn't care who he hurt in the process.Jeremiah turn

Salome’s POV“You should just sit with them,” Jeremiah said, his voice cutting through the air like a blade.The words hung over the table, cold and sharp. I froze, my fork halfway to my plate, and looked at Naomi. She and her friend stood there as if they had been slapped. The silence stretched out, becoming heavy and suffocating. Beside me, Aiden shifted in his seat. He raised one eyebrow at me, his eyes full of silent questions. I only had a shrug to give him. There was no way to explain the mess of our history without making the air in the room even thicker.I expected Naomi to turn and walk away. Anyone with a shred of pride would have fled after a comment like that. Instead, she took a shaky breath and pulled out the chair right next to mine. She gestured for her friend to sit beside Aiden. My heart sank. I didn’t want to be in the middle of this. I didn’t want Jeremiah five feet away, watching me like a hawk while I tried to eat my dinner.I placed

Salome’s POV“You’re actually smiling today,” Aiden said, sliding a glass of ice water toward me.I reached for the glass, my fingers brushing against his. “It is hard not to. The view is great, and the company is even better.”The peaceful moment shattered before I could take a sip. Movement near the entrance caught my eye. Richard walked in, his face lighting up the second he spotted me. He started to wave, his mouth opening to call out my name, but Benedict moved faster. He snagged Richard by the elbow and yanked him back, shaking his head with a look of pure panic.Then I saw why. Jeremiah was right behind them.He didn't look at the hostess. He didn't look at the menu. His entire focus was pinned on my hand, which was still resting near Aiden’s on the table. The skin around Jeremiah’s jaw went tight. I watched the pulse thrumming in his neck, the veins standing out like cords. He looked like he w

Salome’s POV“So, Luceland is definitely the spot,” I said, tucking my hands into my back pockets. I paced the small hotel room, my boots clicking against the thin carpet. “Portia got drunk and spilled it all to Barnabas’s mom. There is no way she’d lie about something that specific. It’s east of New York, just like the map shows.”Clementine sat on the edge of the bed and nodded. She looked tired but focused.“That gives us two paths,” I continued, stopping by the window. “First, we track down that old friend of Russell’s from the police report. If we can get her on our side, we might break the case. The catch is her loyalty. She was friends with Russell, sure, but she was likely part of Portia’s inner circle too. People like that tend to stick together to keep their secrets buried.”Clementine shook her head, her face falling. “I didn’t even think about that. If she’s still loyal to Portia, she’ll just tip her off that we’re asking questions.”“It’s a risk we have to weigh,” I said.

Salome’s POV"Salome, get up right now and look at your phone," Tabitha’s voice screeched through the speaker the second I pressed accept.I rubbed my eyes, the crust of sleep still heavy on my lids. My room was dim, the early morning light barely peeking through the cur

Salome’s POV“Barnabas, if you don’t get up this second, I will have security drag you back to the basement,” Jeremiah said.His voice was like ice. He didn’t even look angry, just bored, as he pulled his phone from his pocket. The calm

Salome’s POV"Eat up. This is going to make you recover faster," Jeremiah said.He didn't wait for a response before he slid his own bowl toward me. I looked at the steam rising from the soup, then back at him. My face felt hot. It was hard enough being the centre of attention

Salome’s POV"You are staring again," Jeremiah said.The sound of his voice snapped me back to the present. I realized I was biting my lip, my mind still stuck on the way he looked at me on the plane. That heavy, lingering gaze was burned into my brain. I tried to shake the im
