Chapter 424

Elodie was genuinely surprised that Jarrod would be so "considerate" as to warn her about something like this.

After all, their usual dynamic was to stay firmly out of each other's business, each respecting the invisible boundary lines between them.

So what gave him the right to say something like that to her now?

She frowned, feeling he was overstepping. "Mr. Silverstein, in what capacity are you warning me?"

The sarcasm was unmistakable.

Jarrod picked up on it immediately.

But he didn't bother answering her question. He just turned slightly, fixing her with

a steady, deep gaze, his tone still calm and unruffled. "Elodie, I would never do anything to hurt you."

She almost laughed out loud at that.

If that was true, then he clearly needed to look up the definition of "harm."

Elodie didn't even bother arguing with him. She simply turned and walked away without another word.

That was just how she was-cautious, both in her personal and professional life.

She didn't know much about Watts, but so far, he was one of those rare people who seemed faultless in every respect.

A fairly important partner, too. She genuinely didn't understand what Jarrod's warning was supposed to mean.
