She was just about to insist she could take care of it herself.

Elodie quickly pulled away from his reach, her expression frosty as she turned on her heel and walked back.

Jarrod slipped his hand casually into his pocket, unruffled. "Fine. I concede." Maurice gave him a sly, knowing smile. "You only lost because you were held back.....
