Sloane still said nothing. Her thumb pressed a hidden point on her ring. A silver needle shot out, gleamed faintly
in the dark, then retracted. She did it again. And again.
Lucas’s eyes twitched when he recognized the needle-the one she once used to threaten him. If he wasn’t
mistaken, it still had traces of blood on it.
“I'm sorry,” Lucas said quietly. “You were harassed because of me. But | promise- he won't ever bother you
again.”
He had already removed all of Mason’s people from the company. Mason himself was next on the list.
Sloane finally looked up, her expression softening. “It’s fine. | already handled it myself.”
Her thumb pressed the ring again. The bloodied needle popped out once more.
Just then, Andrew walked over and leaned in to whisper something in Lucas’s ear. His eyes briefly flicked to

He hadn't expected to be so thoroughly disliked-but here he was.
