James loathed his loss of control tonight–and he was determined to make it right by offering her compensation.

“…Huh?”

Lily was stunned.

After what she’d done tonight–throwing herself at him, crossing countless lines–she felt like even being torn apart by horses wouldn’t be enough punishment.

She should be the one compensating him.

Sure, he was obscenely wealthy and she had no idea how much money would be enough to express her remorse, but still—she never imagined he would be the one to offer her compensation.

He’d clearly been resisting her advances, uncomfortable with every kiss and touch.

Lily understood that he was only offering to compensate her because of his unshakeable moral compass. Even though she was the one who acted out of line, he saw her as the more vulnerable party and felt responsible.

But from her perspective, she hadn’t suffered at all.

She’d only been a disgraceful, insufferable mess.

She couldn’t possibly take that billion. She wouldn’t let him pay for her mistake. Embarrassed, she blurted, “You don’t have to compensate me!”
