Hamilton's face was a study in storm clouds as he pulled his car over to the curb and got out.

Hamilton's jaw clenched, and he moved forward to slam the door shut again.

The strain on Natalia's face was palpable.

"Hamilton, don't you think you're overstepping a bit? We're nothing more than colleagues now."

Hamilton's face darkened, and his gaze flicked to Ryan.

"So you're leaving with him?"

Natalia raised an eyebrow, challenging. "Is that a problem?"

Hamilton's composure was slipping.
