Chapter 31:

Sloane’s eyes scanned the room before she moved forward, gripping Eric’s arm to draw his attention away from Khloe. “Let it go, Eric. Don’t waste your breath. Khloe knows exactly what she’s doing. She’s Karl’s woman now, and he won’t let anything happen to her.”

Sloane reminded Eric that Khloe, once cast out by her own family, had used her wits and allure to rise up. Eric remembered how Karl had defended Khloe at the engagement party, and the memory doused any doubts he had like cold water.

“Why bother with someone as dishonorable as Khloe? If she ends up on the streets, it’s her own fault.”

Sloane adopted a false apologetic expression, pretending to be concerned for Khloe. “Sorry, Khloe, but I can’t disregard Eric’s feelings. Brice, go tell the director to sort out Khloe’s payment and move her to another crew.”
