Malvina’s frown was so deep, it looked like it could trap a mosquito. She took a big step back, trying to escape this mess, only to find her path blocked by a hand propped against the wall above her head.

“I can handle the payment myself! No need to trouble your assistant!”

Malvina tried to sit up but was promptly pushed back down by Ulrich.
