Rebecca glanced downstairs. “They went downstairs.”

Samuel paused.

‘Was it something I said?‘ Samuel wondered.

“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.”

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.

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,

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.”
