He had been careless, after all.

All he had intended was to whisk Natalia away from Silkwood City, thereby cutting off her contact with Ronin.

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

Before he even reached them, their laughter carried on the breeze, twisting his features into an even deeper scowl.

Hamilton approached, his eyes dark and brooding.

Ryan, having noticed Hamilton, simply nodded to Natalia, his expression unreadable.

"Where are you heading?" Hamilton's frown deepened as he posed the question.

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

"Natalia, are you deaf? I asked you where you're going!"

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.
