you treated him really well, didn’t you? How exactly?”
| shot him a look. “Well! | pay him generously! I'm a very, very generous boss.”

“That's it!”
He narrowed his eyes. “Why did you swing my hand away from you?”
| smiled helplessly at him.
“Are you jealous?” | asked pointedly.

“Because | mean them.”

Soren rubbed my cheeks, frowning. “Let's get inside the car Better not catch a cold.”
We got into the car. He drovehome.
Even with the driver present, Soren kept holding my hand. Our palms were sweaty by the twe arrived at my
place, but he still didn’t want to let go.
| checked the ton my phone. It wasn’t even 9:00 p.m. yet.
| thought about how many times | had unintentionally turned him away from our dates and hesitated before
