But before she could actually faint, Jude emerged from Alex’s office with a grim expression.
“Jude, how did it go?” The trio turned their attention.
Jude wasn’t in the mood for details. “Nothing. He said whoever gets the contract gets it. Doesn’t matter how.”
Their faces fell, a shadow passing over their moods.
As Ophelia Graham walked past their group, she smiled sweetly, “Mr. Halston, what’s wrong? You don’t look too well.”
Jude said nothing. Just gave his ex–wife a deep, unreadable look.
Seeing Jude’s silence, the others went back to their work.
Feeling ignored, Ophelia just turned and left.

He didn’t move right away. Took his sweet time starting the car.
“Ms. Domont, what would you like for dinner?”
Kaia thought for a moment, then forced a smile. “How about Redblossom Restaurant? We didn’t get to eat there last time.”
Lucien smirked faintly. “Sure.”
The entire ride, Kaia wanted to ask how much he’d overheard on the call.
But she didn’t dare to bring it up.
