And Leo had played a big part in that.Whatever his feelings toward her really were, there was no denying how much he had helped her, with work, with Megan, and with so many other things.“What are you thinking about?” Leo asked when he noticed how quiet she had gotten.“How I’m supposed to thank you.”Leo smiled.“For helping you move today?”“Yes, but not just that.”Nina looked at him.“You’ve helped me with a lot of things. My job. My mom being in the hospital. Everything.”Leo didn’t particularly like hearing her keep track of every favor.He had never thought of any of it as something she owed him for. He had done those things because he wanted to.Still, since she had brought it up, he decided to tease her a little.“So, have you figured it out?”“Not yet,” Nina admitted. “Anything normal probably wouldn’t mean much to you, and anything expensive enough to impress you is definitely out of my budget.”Leo gave her a hint.“You could start with something I actually

“Neighbors?”Nina was still confused.“I thought you lived somewhere else.”She had been to Leo’s other house before. It was larger, more luxurious, and located in one of Burgola’s most exclusive neighborhoods, quiet despite being close to the city.Leo answered smoothly.“I have too many properties to keep track of. I’d almost forgotten about this one until I was looking for a place for you.”He glanced around.“It’s been sitting empty anyway, and it’s close to the office. I figured I might as well use it during the workweek.”Nina looked around the apartment again.“But isn’t this place a little too modest for you?”For her, it was more than good enough.But compared with the kind of places Leo usually lived in, it felt almost too ordinary.Leo raised an eyebrow.“If it’s good enough for you, why wouldn’t it be good enough for me?”Nina almost told him that they were different.She was used to living simply.Leo, on the other hand, had grown up surrounded by every com

“Burgola’s only so big. If James really wants to find something out, he probably can.”Nina wasn’t surprised anymore.She knew exactly what kind of person James was.“I just feel bad that you got dragged into this.”“I’m fine. He’s not getting anything out of me. He’ll just get an earful and leave empty-handed.”Jane sounded completely unconcerned. Then she remembered something.“Oh, right. He said something else today.”Jane had no intention of repeating the rest of James’s nonsense, but she figured Nina should know about the misunderstanding involving Daniel.“What?”“He seems to think you and Daniel are together.”Nina stared at her.“That’s ridiculous.”Then she shrugged.“Whatever. He can think whatever he wants as long as he leaves me alone.”“Exactly. Who cares what he thinks?”Jane couldn’t resist adding, “Although he’s honestly kind of hopeless. He went through all that trouble digging into your life and still got the wrong guy.”She laughed.“You and Daniel?

Nina ignored him and kept carefully applying the gel.Leo watched her for a moment, then glanced down at the hand she was treating so gently.By then, he had completely forgotten about the burn.All he could focus on was the warm, unfamiliar feeling spreading through his chest.When Nina finally finished, Leo gently caught her wrist.His voice was lower than usual, with a trace of hope he didn’t even realize was there.“You were really that worried about me?”“Of course.”Nina was still looking over his hand, checking to make sure she hadn’t missed anything.“You got hurt making breakfast. Technically, that means you got hurt because of me. Of course I’m going to worry.”She continued seriously, “Besides, you grew up with people taking care of everything for you. You probably barely had to cook growing up, much less deal with something like this.“If your parents were here and saw your hand, they’d probably be even more worried than I am.”Leo almost laughed at her reasonin

Leo’s tone softened.“I was just saying it. You’re in charge of the project, so it’s your call.”Then his expression darkened again.“But as for James, I really don’t want to see him around here again. And I’d rather you stay away from him too.”Ideally, James would stop bothering Nina altogether and disappear from her life for good.“Okay, okay. I’ll try not to see him.”With Nina gently talking him down, Leo’s mood finally improved.At the same time, though, he realized just how possessive he was becoming.James was still technically her husband, yet Leo had just asked her to stay away from him.And Nina had agreed.Leo honestly didn’t know what to make of that.The more jealous he became, the more desperately he wanted to know how Nina actually felt about him.Ever since that kiss in Harbor City, he hadn’t brought it up again.She had pulled away afterward, so he had quietly backed off and given her space, keeping the same careful distance between them as before.But d
