For reasons she couldn’t explain, a complex mess of emotions surged inside Estella-so tightly tangled she found it hard to breathe.

Technically speaking, she had no right to interfere in Jonathan’s personal matters. After all, they weren’t in a relationship.

Even so, with that smile stretched stiff across her face, she forced herself to wonderful. She really seems like a good match for Mr. Jonathan.”

Lana and Selene stared at her in disbelief. “You’re not even a little upset?” they asked in unison.

Anyone could see the quiet tension that lingered between Estella and Mr. Jonathan-that faint, unspoken something. Even as outsiders, Lana and Selene could feel it. More than that, they knew Jonathan had gone out of his way to personally handle the entire office lease. A man like him-aloof, busy, unwilling to waste a second-would never involve himself in trivial matters unless he cared.

And it wasn’t hard to guess who he cared about.

The moment he put two and two together, Jeremy made up his mind: he’d help his poker- faced little brother win the girl.

Lana had readily agreed. Their boss-forever single, buried in work-was a decent guy. She thought he and Estella were a perfect match.
