Charles had never cared about what Yolanda truly felt, yet her hollow performance now ignited his curiosity.
She walked past him and started up the stairs. He waited for her on the landing, leaning back with an air of detached coolness. “I took care of that celebrity issue,” he mentioned.
She continued down the hall without looking back. “Okay.”
Charles watched her go, a fresh cigarette perched between his fingers, unlit. After a brief pause, he followed her.
Yolanda grabbed her pajamas and headed for the shower. When she stepped out, she found him already in bed, leaning against the headboard with his long legs stretched out. She froze, about to ask what he was doing here.
But then, his phone rang. This time, it wasn’t Sophie.
A moment later, Jack knocked on the door. “Mr. Sinclair, we’ve identified the mole who leaked the internal info.”
The leaked bid had cost Charles a major project he’d spent months preparing for. Now, they finally had a lead.
Yolanda moved toward the bed and reached for the covers, but his hand closed around her wrist. “Come with me. I want you there.”

Charles walked calmly to the sofa in the middle of the room and sat down. His expensive leather shoes were smudged with blood, but he paid them no mind.
The man crawled forward, forehead dripping crimson. “Mr. Sinclair, I’m so sorry. I’ll return every cent to the company. I was wrong. I was greedy.”
