Keira’s lips twitched as she caught Scarlet South staring at her, clearly waiting for an answer.

She cleared her throat lightly and glanced back toward the room behind her.

Should she throw Lewis under the bus, or turn Scarlet down?

The answer, of course, was to turn her down.

For one, handing over her man just like that would be absurd—especially considering the dramatic love story they’d sold to the South family. Besides, if she gave in too easily, Lewis would probably explode from jealousy.

Back in Clance, that man would get jealous at the drop of a hat—jealous over men, jealous over women, he even got jealous of Amy, for heaven’s sake.

The man was possessive. No doubt about it.

Best not to poke the bear.

Keira lowered her eyes. "I’m sorry, Miss South. Solomon and I are in love. He gave up everything he had back home for me. We’ve been through life and death together. Even if he lost his memory, I still can’t just hand him over."

Scarlet frowned the second she heard that. "I get it. Solomon’s handsome and seems like a good guy, but I really need him. You have no idea how hard it is to find a decent-looking man in South City. And I just can’t lose... How about five million?"

Keira hadn’t even replied when Scarlet jumped in again. "Don’t be greedy now. Five million South Dollars is worth fifty million back in Crera. I’d say you’re making out like a bandit."

Keira blinked. "Yeah... that’s not gonna work."

"Seven million? Ten?" Scarlet gritted her teeth.

Ten million. That was... what? A hundred million in Creran currency?

For an ordinary girl, that was probably a once-in-a-lifetime kind of offer. Keira and Lewis were pretending to be just that—ordinary.

But Keira still shook her head. "We’re in love. We’ve been through hell together. I can’t just sell him off."

Scarlet let out a sigh. "Wow, you guys really are something. I’m almost touched. Well, if that’s how it is... I guess I’ll leave it."

The assistant was speechless.

She gave Scarlet a long, tired look, the kind you give when you’re wondering how your boss could possibly be this softhearted. "If you don’t take Solomon now, you’ll have no boyfriend, no husband, no male companion—and what will you use to compete with Miss Lena South?"

That hit home. Scarlet’s expression shifted instantly to full-on villain mode. "You’re right. There’s no way I’m losing to Lena!"

Then she turned and glared at Keira. "Hey! I’m warning you. If you don’t give that man to me, I’ll have you thrown into the ocean and fed to the sharks. Got it?"

Keira said nothing.

Not only had she heard that, she’d heard every word of the whole whispered conversation.

Scarlet’s attempt at a menacing glare was... honestly kind of cute.

Keira sighed. "Then go ahead. Feed me to the sharks."

Scarlet’s eyes went wide, like a startled baby deer.
