Rebecca glanced downstairs. “They went downstairs.”

Samuel paused.

‘Was it something I said?‘ Samuel wondered.

“Are you going to follow them?” Rebecca asked.

“What?” Samuel blinked, not quite catching on.

“He and Mr. Mason went downstairs to talk,” Rebecca said, mostly worried they’d make too much noise and wake up Tom, who loved drama. “I wonder if they’ll end up fighting.”

Samuel said, “Dad’s no match for Mr. Mason.”

It was kind of embarrassing for his dad, but Samuel had to admit it.

Mr. Mason was seriously impressive.

He’d never met anyone more formidable than Mr. Mason.

Rebecca stayed quiet.

She honestly had no clue what Jeffrey could really do. In all five years they’d been married, she’d never seen him actually have to get his hands dirty; if any problems came up, his bodyguards took care of it before he even had to blink.

“But there’s no way he’ll get played,” Samuel piped up right away.

Rebecca agreed with that.

Jeffrey was way too smart for that–he’d never go up against someone at their own game, and definitely not if it meant putting himself at a disadvantage. Not that Rebecca had ever figured out what his weaknesses were,

anyway.

Things played out just like Rebecca and Samuel thought. When Jeffrey and Mark stepped outside into the villa’s garden, Jeffrey cut straight to the chase. “It’s obvious you can’t stand me.”

Mark answered flatly, “Yep.”

Jeffrey shot back, “So when are you handing in your resignation?”

Mark actually paused, his expression blank for a second–not expecting that.

For once, Mark’s famously unreadable face betrayed a flicker of surprise.

But Mark shot back almost instantly, “Not quitting.”
