If the sky's falling, let the big guys worry about it." Damian ignored him, pulling out his tablet and pointing to a line of red data. "This currency conversion is wrong." He stood too close, practically wedging himself between me and Jasper. Jasper shifted, passing the fruit container to my other hand, his tone mocking. "The numbers aren't going anywhere.
