Belinda’s remark subtly transformed Kristopher into what seemed like a commodity available for rent.

Belinda’s smirk was faint but unmistakable. “If that’s the case, then what exactly is the nature of your relationship?”

She lifted her glass, delicately sipping the orange juice Anthony had thoughtfully provided. Then, turning towards Kristopher with increased volume, she demanded, “Mr. Cox, would you care to clarify?”
