Seeing the genuine sparkle in her eyes and the way her lips curved into a smile, which didn’t seem the least bit forced, Emyr’s expression darkened instantly.

“Did you think I’d be interested in you?”

As always, Emyr remained aloof and arrogant, his tone filled with disdain. “Don’t kid yourself.”

Charmaine wasn’t fazed by his harsh words. Once she confirmed that Emyr had no special feelings for her. she felt a wave of relief.

“You’re right. How could a mere maid like me even dream of catching the eye of someone at the top of the pyramid?”

With a playful smile, Charmaine moved back to her original spot. “I know my place.”

Charmaine chuckled. “They don’t always get away with that kind of money.”

Micah laughed along and shared some juicy details.

“Don’t be so sure. After we sent the guy to the police, we found out he’d conned quite a few regular patients too. They only lost a few hundred or thousand dollars each, but this time was different. Even Master Field was shocked, wondering who could be so unlucky to lose that much money, haha. If that scammer had pulled it off, he could’ve retired comfortably. But he ran into you instead.”

said, “You could say I did him a favor. If he had managed to escape with that hundred million, Emyr would’ve turned all of Eragos upside down to hunt
