Xander nodded.

Hazel's heart was pounding like a drum. She feared he might act impulsively, but she also wanted to see how far he would go for her.

After a while, Xander said with a darkened face, "I've reviewed the contract Jake signed with you. He offered you a 30% profit margin. I'll be the boss today. I can offer you 40%. As long as you're happy." The 10% increase in the profit margin shocked Hazel.

Sean's pupils contracted slightly. He hadn't expected Xander to be so generous.
