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 o

  • Signed, Sealed, I’m Rich: The Rejected Luna’s Multi-Billion    Chapter 184

    Salome’s POV“You think a fancy room makes everything okay?” I asked, my voice shaking as I stepped into the suite.The space was massive. It was the kind of room that felt too big for just two people, filled with expensive furniture and soft lighting that made every shadow look deep. I didn’t have time to admire the view or the velvet chairs. Before I could even take another step, Jeremiah moved. I felt the heat of him before he even touched me. Then, his chest pressed against my back, solid and heavy.I gasped. The sound seemed to bounce off the high ceilings, making me feel even smaller. My skin prickled. I knew I had to say it, even if the timing felt wrong.“Jeremiah, I shouldn’t have listened to those stories,” I whispered. The air in the room felt thick. “About why you came to Luceland. I shouldn't have told Benedict, either. It was wrong of me.”My face felt like it was on fire. I couldn

    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“Is this the part where you tell me it was all just a misunderstanding, Rosendo?” I asked.I kept my voice flat. I didn't want him to hear the tremor in my chest. The crowd in the ballroom shifted, and the sea of expensive suits and silk dresses parted

    Salome’s POV"You think someone is actually coming to save you?" Rosendo asked.He moved toward me, his silhouette cutting through the pale moonlight and the thick ocean mist. He was smiling, but it was the kind of look that made my blood turn to ice. When he leaned down, the
