“Mr. Barker,” Eden purred.

Gross.

I glanced to the side.

My breath caught.

Wilson opened his mouth to say something but Louis’s very angry, “What the fuck?” tore through the room before Wilson could speak.

“Louis,” Gavin admonished. “Take it outside.”

Louis abruptly stood, still staring at his phone and stalked to the terrace doors.

“Is there a problem?” Wilson asked.

“Nothing for you to worry about. Let’s go to the library.”

Wilson’s narrowed eyes swung around the room, pausing on me momentarily before he nodded and followed Eden.

Time to get the hell out of dodge.

“I’ll have a property for you within a few hours,” I told Martin.

The other man who hadn’t been introduced finally spoke.

“You can make the arrangements here.”

Shit.

Think.

Shit.

“If that’s what you prefer, Mr....?”

I let that hang, hoping he’d introduce himself.

“Mister works just fine, Miss Levine.”

Ugh.

What a prick.

“As I was saying, sir, I can make my calls from here but I’ll need to view the properties personally to ensure the one I secure is up to Mr. Jackson’s standards.”

“I’ll go with you,” he replied.

Holy hell.

“Let Atlee do her job,” Martin cut in. “We have bigger issues to deal with.”

Mister didn’t look happy but he didn’t argue.

That was my cue to leave.

“I’ll see myself out and let you attend to business.”

With that, I rushed to the door, leaving Wilson with Eden in the library and a ranting Louis on the terrace.
