Halsey reached out and grabbed Shaun's arm.
“Are you okay?”
Shaun shook his head. “I should be the one asking you that. Did Warren say anything out of line? | honestly
didn’t know he and Chelsea were giving you a hard time. But don’t worry. | won't let anyone mess with you
again.”
Halsey felt a warm rush in her chest. Shaun was so caring, so protective.
“He didn’t say much,” she replied. “I just don’t want to see you two fall out over me. | know he’s someone who's
always looked out for you. You guys have been friends for years.”
Shaun gave a small smile and reassured her. “Don’t worry. Warren and | won't fall out over this. | just wanted him
to understand that you're mine, and no one gets to cross that line.”
Halsey was touched. Suddenly, she remembered something. “By the way, Warren said something weird today. |
couldn’t even follow it. He said | betrayed you and that | slept with Gilbert. When have | ever-"
Before she could finish, Shaun gently pressed her shoulder and said softly, “It’s fine. Don’t listen to him. Even if

She sat back down and continued working on her designs.
Shaun chuckled and returned to reviewing documents.
Evening cquickly, and Martin stepped into the office. “Mr. Lane, about tonight’s-"
Shaun cut him off. “Cancel everything tonight. From now on, I'm clocking out at 6:00 PM sharp.”
Martin paused.
The workaholic CEO had suddenly changed? This was a side of him no one recognized.
“Alright, Mr. Lane,” Martin replied and stepped out.
Shaun got up and walked over to Halsey. “Are you done? Lettake you to dinner.”
Halsey stood up and smiled as she gathered her design drafts, “I’ve got dinner plans with Wendy tonight.”
Shaun looked a bit disappointed. “So you're not having dinner with me?”
Halsey took his hand and smiled. “Con-we’re going to dinner with Wendy together.”
Shaun smiled. “Are you introducingto your best friend?”
“All my friends already know who you are,” she replied, laughing.
Fair enough.
Shaun felt genuinely happy.
