Even in death, their ashes would be buried together–never to part, even through eternal night.

Claudia pushed Sterling’s hand away from her eyes. “You didn’t even let me finish–he’s not my type.”

Sterling chuckled, wrapping an arm around her waist, leaning close to her ear from behind. “Then who is your type, hmm?”

“I don’t know,” she said, playing dumb.

“Don’t know?” Sterling pinched her cheek. “Then maybe once you’ve had your fill, you’ll figure

it out.”

Claudia quickly hugged the man whose thoughts were clearly heading somewhere dangerous. “Y–you, okay? You’re my full–course meal!”

Sterling ruffled her hair, pleased. “Claudia, I can learn to make whatever flavor you like—but stay away from cheap junk food, got it?”

Claudia blinked. Was that supposed to sound wholesome?

But seeing where this was going, she wisely shut her mouth and kissed her jealous man.

“Mwah-”

While the couple flirted shamelessly in their own little world, single Mandy stumbled across something that made her face darken.

He pushed it toward her. “The Lancaster Group’s been developing this tech patent for seven years. I can sell it to you at a discount. I believe it’ll interest you.”

It had cost him countless sleepless nights and nearly everything he had. He’d hoped it would be the thing to save the family–lift them high again. Instead, he was being forced to sell it for cheap just to plug the holes in their sinking company.

His heart bled with every word.

And yet, even with that sacrifice, his potential buyer wasn’t biting.

Mandy tapped a manicured finger on the folder. “Honestly, I am interested.”

Before his eyes could light up, she added, “But let’s be real, Mr. Clarence—no one’s touching anything with your family name on it right now. Forget the patent’s worth; your company and your family are both ticking time bombs. No one knows when the next one will go off.”

Clarence’s tone sharpened. “But once the contract’s signed, it’s yours. Whatever happens to us won’t affect the deal.”
