Halsey opened her mouth to speak, but Shaun quickly covered it with his hand. “Shh, don’t scare him off yet.”
She grew impatient. “We found him. Now we have to bring him back!”

Shaun shook his head. “Gilbert already bought him off. If we just take him back, who knows if he might stab us in the back? That could deal Lincoln Enterprise a fatal blow.”
Halsey had to admit Shaun was right. Lincoln Enterprise’s stock hal plummeted and was barely hanging on. They couldn’t afford any more trouble.
This worker was cunning, full of unknown risks.
“So what do we do now?”
Shaun smirked. “Are you asking for my advice?”
“I am.”
Shaun leaned in. “Then let me ask you something.”
“What?”
“Didn’t you get my texts?”
Halsey paused. “…I did.”
Shaun’s eyes narrowed. “So you were ignoring me. Why didn’t you reply?”
“Because I have nothing to say to you.”
Shaun’s expression darkened with anger. He wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close. “I can deal with this worker for you.”
Halsey’s eyes brightened. “Really?”
The situation with the worker was delicate. Several powerful families were involved, but she trusted Shaun’s ability. If he said he could fix it, it would get done.
Shaun nodded. “Absolutely.”
Halsey hesitated. “But what do you want? There has to be a catch.
He leaned down, his voice low and warm against her ear. “I’ll solve this for you–if you spend one night with me.”
He wanted her to spend a night with him.
Halsey’s heart skipped. “Spend one night doing what?”
”
Shaun’s breath brushed her ear. “What do you think? I’m no gentleman. The two of us in a room–what else could happen?”
A flush crept up Halsey’s cheeks. “You’re kicking me when I’m down!”
Shaun kissed her pale earlobe softly. “That night, you didn’t even let me…”
Halsey immediately covered his mouth with her hand, silencing him.
Shaun stared into her shining eyes. At this moment, she looked like a startled fawn, pure and beautiful. He telt his heart skip a
few beats.
“So, what do you say? I don’t have all day. You have three seconds to decide. Three, two, one
He was closing in, counting down.

When he reached “one“, Halsey blurted out, “Fine!”
She agreed.
Shaun’s lips curled into a thin smile. “I’m looking forward to it.”
“First help me deal with this!”
“You can’t handle this worker with normal methods.”
“What do you mean?”
“Just watch and learn.”
Shaun waved his hand, and a group of men in black immediately appeared. They sprinted toward the worker.
The worker had been sleeping here for days. Seeing the black–clad guards coming, he took off running.
“Stop! Hold it right there!” the guards shouted behind him.
Soon, they tackled him to the ground. The worker struggled. “Let go of me! I’m just a regular worker! What do you want?”
One guard sneered, “Mr. Greenwood sent us to end you!”
