Andy sighed. “Too bad I can’t just kidnap you and keep you for myself. Guess I’ll have to settle for being

friend. Looks like I’ll be stuck regretting this for life.”

He wasn’t joking. His tone was dead serious.

Tilda pursed her lips, then lifted her glass for another sip of red wine.

“I’m glad you think of me that way, Andy. You’re my most important partner.

“From now on, no matter what, you’ll always be an exception to me.

“Take that as my reply to your ‘All thoughts are stars, and all stars are you.”

Andy blinked in surprise. Then, his red lips curled into a slow smile.

“Well, that’s not bad either.”

Neither of them noticed someone at the bar secretly snapping a photo and sending it off.

Maurice had already told his staff that if Tilda ever showed up, they must let him know right away.

Nobody dared slack off.

Everyone assumed the boss must have a thing for her. She was gorgeous, after all.

She danced beautifully, too. The carefree spirit she was on the dance floor that day still lingered in everyone’s memory.

She was also good at fighting.

Perhaps she was Maurice’s type.

The staff made sure Andy was also in the shot.

The photo of the two of them together was immediately forwarded to Maurice.

At that moment, he was playing cards with Alfie. Jude stood by the window, not playing.

Moonlight spilled across him, his shirt and pants perfectly tailored to his frame.

His side profile looked carved by the gods, every angle flawless.

He had the kind of unforgettable looks that could make women go wild–mysterious, powerful, too tempting to touch.

If it wasn’t so dangerous, someone might’ve tried jumping him right then.

Ding! Maurice’s phone buzzed.

He tossed his cards down with a smug grin. “Pair of twos. I win. You just lost me two million, Alfie.”

Ignoring Alfie’s whining, Maurice glanced at his phone.

With just one glance, he froze.

“Holy shit!”

The outburst made Alfie jump.

“Dude! Why are you yelling? I just lost millions and didn’t scream like that.

They looked like they were possessed by a string of curse words.

“No wonder I smell jealousy in the air,” Alfie teased Jude fearlessly.

“But the guy in the photo is a foreigner, right? Looks kinda familiar. That’s weird.

Tilda even brought him to Nightingale Bar. Tsk, tsk.”

Jude tossed the phone back to Maurice, saying coldly, “That’s Andy Saville.”

“Andy?! That famous lawyer?! Oh, right–the blond guy with the pale skin!”

The photo hadn’t caught Andy’s signature green eyes, or he would’ve been even easier to spot.

Tilda actually knows Andy? And she’s hanging out with him?” Maurice was also shocked now.

Meeting Andy was nearly impossible for him.

It wasn’t up to Maurice. He had to request an appointment and pray Andy was in the mood.

It was a privilege.

As a businessman, he knew he’d need a lawyer at some point.
