Her fingers trembled slightly as she took the pen drive. It was small, but she felt its weight.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she finally said, “I don’t know how to thank you.”

Jonathan let out a soft laugh. “Then, don’t.”

Zion hurried to add, “That’s right, Ms. Claude. A real man wouldn’t stand by and do nothing.

“Besides, you already know Mr. Fullbuster’s a certified gentleman!”

There was no need for such formalities.

If they kept going at it, it would only upset Jonathan.

Anneliese nodded, clutching the pen drive in her palm. “Well, if you ever need my help in the future, just give me a call. I’ll do everything I can.”

Zion was speechless, not daring to look at Jonathan’s face.

In a situation like this, the damsel in distress would shyly offer themselves to their savior.

However, Anneliese’s words basically meant she wasn’t interested in him.

He suspected that if they’d been part of a college frat house, she would be making Jonathan a sworn brother for life.

Meanwhile, Jonathan’s expression remained unchanged. He simply looked at Anneliese and said, “Sure.”

Whatever she owed him, he would make sure she paid him back after her divorce was final.

Anneliese thought the matter was finally behind her.

Feeling relieved, she smiled. “I’m going to call the police.”

Jonathan didn’t object.

She quickly added, “I’ll do it now and wait for them. Mr. Fullbuster, your time is precious, so I won’t bother you any longer.

He shook his head. “Where’s your phone?”

Her ears turned red.

It felt like she had just made a bold declaration, only to be slapped in the face by reality.

Seeing her flustered expression again, Jonathan said gently, “I’ll call the police and wait with you. That way, you don’t have to go to the station to file another report.”

Then, he instructed Zion, “Get her a new phone.”

Before Anneliese could refuse, Zion smiled warmly.

“Ms. Claude, do you have a preferred model or color? Should I just get a few for you to pick?”

Without waiting for her answer, he strode out as if he were on a mission.

Anneliese stared after him, dumbfounded.

Soon, she composed herself and looked at Jonathan.

“Do you want to finish this up?” he asked, lifting the bowl and bringing a spoonful of soup to her lips.

Anneliese froze.

This feeling of impropriety wouldn’t go away.

She didn’t even know how she managed to finish her soup, for everything felt like a blurry daydream.

As Jonathan placed the bowl down, his crisp white shirt sleeve rode up slightly.

On his wrist was a thin, long cut.

Anneliese saw it and immediately thought of the utility knife she had hidden in her pocket last night.

She had put it there on a whim before going to the club,

She remembered using it on Jameson.

“Did I do this to you?” she asked in shock.

Jonathan slid his wrist back under his sleeve and said nothing. “It’s just a small cut,” came his
