“Do you know who stands behind The T Company?”

“I’ve never met the person in charge.”

Nina denied it without the slightest hesitation.

Jensen studied her closely. Back in high school, she had always been good at hiding her true thoughts. Others could never tell when she lied, yet he knew all her little tells. Whenever she told a lie, she tended to speak in firm yes-or-no sentences and stare straight into others’ without looking away.

Seeing she refused to tell him the truth, he did not press further. He spoke in a calm tone, “I’ve long heard of the boss behind this firm and think they are truly capable. I even hoped you could set up a meeting for me. Since you don’t know them, never mind then.”

“No matter how promising The T Company is, it is still a newly founded small enterprise. It would be such an honor for their boss to meet you in person. If I knew them, I would definitely pass along your words, maybe even get a promotion out of it. Unfortunately, I have no connections there.”

Nina shook her head pretending to feel regret.

A faint fleeting smile crossed Jensen’s face watching her lie so naturally.

Meanwhile, inside the Beaumont Group headquarters.

Audrey rushed straight into the building, and Jacob failed to stop her. She burst right into the ongoing meeting, forcing it to halt abruptly. Every person in the room turned their eyes toward her.

Julian was quite used to her impulsive acts. He waved a hand casually. “Everyone leave us alone.”

Julian had seen clearly how deeply his sister had fallen for Jensen over the years. He could turn a blind eye to all her silly antics, but he would never stand by and let her make a wrong choice for her future marriage partner.

“Audrey, Jensen has never loved you. There are plenty of better men out there. I can help you

“I don’t want anyone else! I only want Jensen, and no one else

Julian frowned at her stubbornness. “Will you listen to me?”

“I can give up everything else, but I cannot live without him. You have always doted on me. Please help me. I don’t want to call off this engagement.”

She broke down crying bitterly. “You have no idea what he said to me just now. He openly admitted he has special feelings for Nina! They stayed under the same roof last night. Who knows what happened between them. I want Nina to stay far away from him forever. I don’t care how much money it takes to make it happen.”

Seeing his sister sink into such heartbreak over a man, Julian felt helpless and could not bear to see her suffer any longer.

“Fine, I’ll drive her away for you.”

Audrey instantly stopped crying. “Do you really mean it?”

He nodded gently and pinched her cheek softly. “I will get her out of your way. Still, your life is your own choice. If he ever treats you badly after you marry him and you end up regretting it, come tell me anytime, and I will find you someone far better.”

“I only want Jensen. No one else can take his place.””

Audrey hugged him tightly in joy, yet there was not a trace of warmth on Julian’s face.

As a man himself, he knew all too well how men thought. He could already foresee the sad end waiting for a woman who clung desperately to someone who did not love her back.

At noon, Julian asked Jacob to send Audrey home, then dialed Nina’s number without delay.

“Ms. Tann, let’s have a talk,” he said plainly the moment the call connected.

That afternoon, Nina headed to a busy café near the Grey Villa. Still wary after being abducted by Julian the previous night,
